The amount of overhead to run a x86 program on a 64bit windows machine is also not insignificant (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384219%28v=vs.85%29.aspx)
And I completely agree that a 64 bit OS uses more then a 32 bit OS, but unless i am mistaken the only relevant situation here is a a 64 bit OS running either a x86 program in emulation mode or a native 64 bit program.
And doing my own little test I fond that IE x86 used moderately more RAM then IE 64 bit. So yes obviously it is possible for 64 bit programs to use less ram.
I do not normally like to contradict someone in a technical field such as this one unless I am a really big expert (but I have looked into 32 vs 64 bit quite a lot) in that field but I am pretty sure everything you have just said is complete crap.
64 bit has many many benefits above and beyond the obvious and very nice ability to use more RAM and execute bigger instructions. But no I have seen no evidence nor heard anyone who seemed to know what they were saying say that it uses significantly more RAM. If it is using more it making use of it and making the program run better, but it can use less as well and I have even heard that because it does not have to use the x86 emulation (I know it is not technically emulation) that it saves RAM usage.
And RAM is cheap, oh so very cheap, extra usage of RAM is not a drawback at all anymore.
And for your argument it would never use its benefits, what world do you live in? my computer can barely run/. and more processing power would not hurt for that let along normal JavaScript; And whole 3D games are now being run in the browser so it is eminently important that we get x64 versions of these browsers out immediately as game developers have already stretched the browser far past its ability to handle it.
This entire article makes no sense. We simply want a version of Firefox that takes advantage of the additional resources our 64-bit machines have. Sure there are probably specific optimizations you can do, but really the most important thing is simply to compile it to a 64-bit program instead of the x86 they use currently. Can someone explain to me why anyone would think differently?
The worst case scenario is them making all other bees extinct and then either turning out to not be a viable alternative to crop pollination of all dying themselves because that is what a mono-culture does.
He obviously is, encase there is anyone on this site who knows little about wireless security it only takes a few minutes to crack WEP and it is extremely easy to do.
I have no idea what effects women have or have not had on the internal organization of companies or any other things you have stated, but I do agree and have seen many examples of women having no ability to logically contemplate the risks caused to children by particular actions, rules, or practices.
"Only developers who have proved themselves or already existing developers can create games and sell them."
See Minecraft for counter argument. In the real world brand spanking new indie developers can make tons of money, so they should be able to make money on the Xbox just as on the PC.
I have to agree, it seems to be a horrible system to develop for.
I remember my company had me developing a version of their app for mobile devices that run Java ME and for BB they had an entire team and some BB dev support company to help out in the technical details and still they constantly encountered things that simply could not be worked around and development was slow.
You don't see fish picking through garbage because they are almost guarantied to die minutes after their owner is bored of them, they cannot survive on their own.
That does not mean that many do not starve of otherwise die because of mistreatment.

Well at least even if the company stops improving the code we will still get updates, because apparently all that is required is that time has elapsed.
Obviously, some study was done that asked something along the lines of do you ever play video games. And of course ~ 100% of people said yes, making the study show that 50% of gamers are women, which of course any competent person knows that is false.
And then I assume that they asked some other generic question where the answer of yes the gaming industry does focus on men was the obvious answer.
How no one in the study could of not realized their first mistake with the number of 50% even after the contradiction of why are just as many girls attracted to games as men if few games are made for them is beyond my understanding though..
They just kept releasing a bunch of basically identical models or why their profits would fall that far simply because a BB with a new outter shell was not released for a few months.
Well Linux is already a heavy weight in the server department but it is because most people still have a MS box at home that they know MS and therefore want a MS box to work at at work. If Linux was the king of gaming then they would buy Linux boxes for personal (and for their kids) gaming and then would ask for them to work on.
Gaming is the only reason they are not winning in my opinion.
Not that I agree with the general consensus that the Linux OS is better then Windows. MS because they are a company dedicated to making money need to make Windows usable and enjoyable from back to front, while Linux seems to have used their free product designed for expert users as a reason to not really polish some of their features and at least in the case of Ubuntu, release versions that are far from ready for use.
How do you ensure those things using offline methods? Their are only preventative measures for either of the alternatives and as far as I can tell neither is fundamentally a great or a horrible solution.
No one has the right to destroy someone elses property just because they think they can get away with it. these are not people trying to make a point or protesting some injustice these are just hooligans that are obviously more then willing to make someones elses life worse if they can get away with it and I do not understand why anyone would want them to get away with it.
I am a huge supporter of anti-animal abuse as anyone but your facts are not really correct.
Predators often go for a quick efficient kill, but to learn how to do this they often spend time "playing" with their food while they are growing up and if an animal is down but not dead then they do not have a problem simply starting to eat as a animal is not going to get away if its entrails are hanging out.
And if we want to be complete then I could mention that many predatory bugs and fungi kill in excruciatingly gruesome fashions.
In summery animal predators do not really care one iota about their prays comfort, they simply are not ever sadistic without a really good reason.

I guess the question is then why did you search for her in the first place?
"Users were getting back a prior search as a search result"
What? So they are ONLY scanning to for this?
Which could mean any amount of detail is kept and used.
I disagree, big companies would not allow the use of controversially named packages to begin with.
If you want your software to sell to as many people as possible you do not put something named pantyshot in it.
And personally I would never use it.

I used to have the same thing, even signed up to slightly sketchy websites and still nothing.
Then I went to university and game them my address, now I got bucket loads of the stuff.
When they find a person who recently had surgery what do they do?

Hilarious.
Well unless you plan on spending millions, it is the corporations who will continue to have the biggest voice and the biggest bribes.
