Now that the UK & Germany has outlawed knowledge it's like a trap!
The original SimCity asked for the populations of various World cities listed on a card in the packaging. The card was printed in black on dark red to prevent photocopying.
hear hear, if you need to cool your beer to be able to stand the taste then you've got some problems.
That said, cider is the proper USA drink. Cold lager is more of a Bavarian tipple where the ingredients are specified in law by the Reinheitsgebot. No glycerine in German lager, or experimental genetically modified rice.

The sort that don't like having their machine rooted by their binary blob video driver
or maybe the sort that don't run Linux
There was once a time when people complained about lack of hardware documentation, please don't lose sight of Freedom Zero.

I'm hoping that their new interest in opening up documentation and APIs is along term winner and they follow that through properly. OSS really needs a top hardware vendor on board that is open. If ATI is a secondary income stream then "we're protecting our IP" *should* be heard less and less. If the open model is right then a vendor that makes solid open hardware should be a winner over closed locked down stuff.
I can't beat 100million (though Wikipedia suggests a max estimate of 43m for TGLF).
You're right to say it was safer to be in England at that time but being in one of the colonies was a whole different story.
The British Empire brought mass starvations and wholesale murder. And starvation during periods of bumper harvest, unlike Mao who precipitated famine through mismanagement (aside from the purges).
20% of the population of Eire 12-29 million Indians in the late 1800s
This is the time that the Brits invented the concentration camp. One of which is reported to have a 94% death rate.

Surely before one builds one's $50m fab, one checks the patents relevant to one's intended market?

That day was the day the last US troops left Saudi soil, as Bin Laden had requested.
So it depends on who's mission.
You bought a disk full of data.
DRM locks the data to the disk, requiring you to risk damaging the only copy of the data you bought in order to access said data.
Fair use is copying the data you bought to another device so you can access it from there.
I'm surprised you need it explaining to you, are you a bit dumb ?
The original SimCity asked for the populations of various World cities listed on a card in the packaging. The card was printed in black on dark red to prevent photocopying.
Was there a point in there somewhere?

I think it's a sales gimmick, the price of extra video ram in a new build will hardly be noticed at something like $30 for 1Gb.
> Is that supposed to mean its ok if your machine get rooted due to an open source video driver?
It's is the preferred option over binary blob, yes
New blobs take considerably longer than source code mods
Please learn to discriminate between then and than. Thanks.

In what way do you think having an upgradable graphics card is *any* use to someone not buying a machine on the strength of its graphics card?
What are these mythical people going to use the extra GFX ram for ?
Dogs are an easy kill, anyone serious would take it out quicksharp, they really only keep opportunists and kids and cats away.
