Meh. OS X is *nix with a very usable desktop. I have an android phone and a Spotify account. Whether I'm writing bash scripts or coding web servers, the half dozen "i"Apps that Apple preinstalled on my laptop are irrelevant to me.
1. Pursued these companies for company tax, not just make them pass on GST from our pockets.
2. More funding to the ACCC to make these companies actually stick to Australian Consumer Laws (i.e. Sony PSN & Steam)
You are effectively saying every online business needs to also incorporate in Australia. Should they incorporate divisions in the 100+ other countries they operate in too? If the Australian government keeps up at that rate they are going, you'll start to find more online businesses just saying, "Fuck it. Australia is too hard / not worth it" and you can pay even more for even less.
Meanwhile, I'll enjoy things like my fiber to the home internet in third world Phnom Penh where, unlike Australia, the government has left it to the market to work it out. Enjoy your NBN.

I dunno, I bought a second hand Huawei G750 a few months ago and haven't had to restart it that I recall. I've probably powered it off and on again for other reasons a handful of times in that period.
It does only affect mobile searches. TFA was only suggestive of that but the Google blog they linked to states it clearly:
http://googlewebmastercentral....
Why is the issue here the FOI request and the records being made public and not the fact that a branch of the government is collecting that massive amount of data in the first place? The government can abuse that date more efficiently than any member of the public can.
I was moving at speed in a tuk tuk in Phnom Penh when my phone was stolen out of my hands by two guys on a scooter. Not sure how likely that is for most people, but you did ask.
At least until the body is positively identified (perhaps by DNA testing) to be that of Nina Reiser's, for all I know this is some ploy/maneuvering by the defense attorney (who had more than ample time to tell Reiser what he was planning) in order to reduce Reiser's sentence.
His attorney just happened to have another body on hand that they could give up as part of some legal maneouver? That's quite a defence attorney.
Wikia Search also includes buttons allowing
users to try their search on the other major search engines with a single click...
You can do site specific searches right from google by using the 'site' option. So to search wiki for 'lenin' you would enter the following on google:
lenin site:wikipedia.org That's two different things altogether.
Wiki Search supposedly lets you use other search engines from the same page.
The Google example you gave lets you confine the same Google search results to hits from one site.
Same for the woolly mammoth. As interesting and challenging as the recreation of that species is (and possible too, there are still frozen mammoths being excavated with intact testicles). The big problem is that they are huge creates whose habitat is long gone. Where would they go if we made them again? Fill in the missing parts of the genome with Chiuaua DNA. I bet they'd make very popular house pets.

I recently finished watching the six hours of Blender Basics tutorials at http://blenderunderground.com/video-tutorials/ and now I'm a convert.
I absolutely hated the interface before (and by extension, the whole program), but now I'm confident, productive and actually enjoying the process of modelling in Blender.
I can't recommend those tutorials highly enough.
Not all police efforts world wide are there to make you pay for your music.
How about the international child pornography rings that have been successfully broken up by some of these same agencies?
What about international phishing/bank fraud operations?
You might like to see yourselves as some sort of electronic freedom fighters but most cops couldn't give a shit about the petty stuff you consider the front line in cyber crime.
Good to see some of that 24.3 billion dollars they have requested in this year's budget filtering down to where it can do some good.
*cough*

If you have to use closed source to just connect your Linux box to a network, then just fuck it and stay with Windows Okay I will. Having to reconfigure ndiswrapper every time I upgraded Ubuntu was a complete PIA anyway.
I think the "Microsoft is attempting to curry mind share with the 3-12 age bracket" assessment is way off base. As a joke/toy for adults it's actually pretty funny.
Really? Ubuntu is usually a breeze to install. What doesn't work? I want to live on your planet. I found SuSe Linux easier to install and that was back in 2000/2001.

Seriously, someone modded down an opinion based on personal experience? I like rhubarb pie too. What's next, banning me because you prefer pecan?

That would have been a different story altogether and maybe one worth reading.
Sorry for the typos, posting on my phone.

Should be enough for an entry level job,
I would support this if the government:
1. Pursued these companies for company tax, not just make them pass on GST from our pockets. 2. More funding to the ACCC to make these companies actually stick to Australian Consumer Laws (i.e. Sony PSN & Steam)

It's called "clickbait".

Bizarreness is in the eye of the beholder. Many millions of Catholics regularly eat the body of Christ for example.

I tried to RTFA but the link wasn't really there.
Betamax is dead? Cool. Looks like I won't have to return those tapes after all

He's not using any mentos at all.
I think you have to successfully invade China before you get to call them Asian-American.
