Sleeper accounts don't get mod points, you have to have posted recently and have good karma, or at least that has been my experience. (I always get mod points within a week if a post more then five of so posts and one of them gets up moded, but if I haven't posted for ages I will not get mod points until I post.)
I disagree,/.'s system works quite well in that posting, having people reply to your posts and getting up modded/having good karma increase your chance of getting mod points. Nb. From my experience I have to have posted recently to get mod points and usually I get them just after I get an up mod. I go through long periods of not posting on/. and I never get mod points if I haven't posted in the past week.
Also how would karma work if you didn't have down mods?
Yeah, authors can chose to not have DRM on their books however they still have to use Amazons proprietary format. Non-DRM'ed books can probably be opened with other programs as well.
Although the path of appeal from the High Court to the Privy Council had been effectively blocked, the High Court could not block appeals from State supreme courts directly to the Privy Council. Nor did the Constitution limit, or provide for legislation to limit, such appeals. The expense of any appeal to the Privy Council in London had been a deterrent: in any year, there had never been more than a handful. Nonetheless, by the 1980s the possibility of appeal from a State supreme court was seen as outdated.
Constitution s 74 has not been amended, and the Constitution cannot be amended by legislation.[4] Nonetheless, s 11 of the Australia Act goes as far as legislatively possible, to make s 74 a dead letter.
I read that section as saying that whilst it is not normal to do so, the state supreme courts have the power to send appeals to the privy council and have not ruled it out.
Actually whilst the High Court has declared it is not bound by decisions of the Privy Council, State Supreme Courts can in some cases appeal to the privy council. See here
Perhaps you should look up what Marxism is and compare it to what the protesters want (I suggest reading @OccupyWallStand @occupy_SYDNEY on twitter).
I would also like to note that Marxism and Communism are not synonyms and that true Marxism is probably not what you think it is either.
Well at least in Aus OWS protesters where protesting against a police union rally so I think your stereotypes are a bit broken.

I think that many people do not understand (or do not want to understand) what these people are protesting (that includes some, but not the majority of OWS members). The protests are about corruption and the fact that the rich can buy politicians for their mutual gain and to the cost of everyone else. More simply put they are protesting the fact that they feel the current system is not democratic in that there voices are not being heard.
The fact that they have iPhones and laptops dose not neutralise this, in fact it is almost completely irrelevant. They are not protesting "Teh evil corporations" they are protesting the failure of our so called democratic system.
Fact: They where not impeding police from doing their duties Fact: They had legal right to be where they where Fact: They where not obstructing or creating a hazard.
Other posters have already explained this in great detail, the police where not required nor had any authority to intervene never mind assault those protesters.
They can't integrate it too heavily because a reasonable sized demographic for Android Phones (teenagers) can't use Google+ as it is limited to people under 18 (whilst this is obviously mitigated, I would wager it is one of the primary reasons for Google+'s failure.)
JVM is a run time environment not a compiler (although the environment includes a JIT compiler). Also I think the point was javascript is seen as a less powerful language
You claim that Israel is the villain, but I don't see Israelites blowing up houses in Gaza. I'm not saying Palestine is evil, because it isn't, but the people of Palestine, as well as radical Islamics, have some serious growing up to do.
You should watch the news more, you might find your views corrected or is it only bad when it isn't done by a massive military force breaching international law?
Time for some history. They were there first, and got the boot.
Yeah in Roman times, most people except that if you have left somewhere with no plans for returning even for a decade you no longer have a claim, never mind several hundred years. Israel exists as compensation for the treatment of the Jews in WW2 and to stop a holocaust occurring again.
Actually to US is required by federal law (which can/should be changed) to not support any UN groups that allow Palestine (specifically) to be a member. If the US wanted to play fair and respect human rights they could repeal that law. Furthermore laws that effect a countries diplomatic policy are considered part of its diplomatic policy. Saying "sorry we have a law against that" is not a valid reason by itself for doing what the US is doing.
I actually have experience better support on linux then windows. E.g. yr old wirless adaptor automaticaly detected on linux, but I had to go ther manufacturers website to get drivers for windows.
Wow/. reading comprehension has dramatically fallen, the OP wants to connected to a proxy server whilst using wifi (as is required on most corporate networks). Android does not have this as an inbuilt feature, he is asking for an app which would enable this. I think it is unlikely this is a carrier issue, just a missing feature.
Also a lot of/.ers seem to think that Android does not support tethering, which is part of the default install, I have yet to see an android phone which does not support tethering (including my Nexus S that I got on a plan).

You can connect a kindel as USB storage and copy the books off , but I think they are encrypted
Really I thought I was pronounced Yakiee
My point was that they are demonstrably not pro-union and certainly not Marxist.

I think the political backlash would be to big for them to take that risk, however it would be very good for most people.
Whilst you are correct, that is not the issue here. The issue here is the legality of the search in the US without a warrant/sufficient evidence.
Except that isn't a DMCA notice
Australia certainly does not do that, corporations as well as the Unions are major contributors to campaigns
Foreign policy sometimes needs to be done in private, so the other country doesn't get pissed/take advantage of you.

I'm running GNOME 3 on ubuntu using the ppa and it feels very stable. However the lack of a taskbar is annoying (I had to install one).
