When I grew up, downloading a 5mb game took 20-36 hours. You had to hope and pray that the download wasn't interrupted in any way. It invariably was...
An IDS wouldn't have really helped in this situation would it? His net connection was tracked down. All they would have to do is ring the ISP hosting his IP Address and ask which account its been linked to - then headed to the address for that account.
They may be admitting in a round-about way that only a small percentage of the nanoparticles make it to the affected cells - therefore they are saying that by pumping the body full of these nanoparticles can have a higher rate of success in targeting the cells. Big 'duh', but possible admission of low accuracy?
Yeah, I wasn't referring to Virgin Galactic when mentioning the space suites. I was just highlighting the closest method while still being alive (that I'm aware of) for experiencing space.
Being in a space suite is as close as we'll ever come to enjoying a 1 on 1 with good ole father space. I would say that even though you're merely an observer from an enclosed capsule, any travelers would indeed be enjoying the closest possible encounter with space.
Yes and no. The world and its issues are rarely that black and white.
While it can be said that Google is just making a moral decision, for them to not take into account the lives of their employees would be just as bad as the actions taken by the draconian government itself.
At some point, Google is responsible for warning its employees of the dangers involved and really asking them to soul search whether or not they are willing to stand up to the oppression.
Having said that, I'm sure Google already has informed them - I just hope the seriousness of it was conveyed.
So what are you suggesting? Putting off a release if somebody reports a bug/regression? Sticking to old versions of a package if a regression is reported?
I'm suggesting they should have better unit testing. I'm suggesting that these basic functions should be tested release by release and made sure to consistently work. I'm not saying they need to perform miracles on areas where Linux just doesn't cut it - but the amount of regressions that Ubuntu suffers from release to release needs to be addressed - even if that is backporting of newer releases.
Yeah, I think thats a bit different. You can make all the laws you want against bikie gangs, but the fact remains that the police wont go near those gangs and will turn a blind eye.
He's talking about pulseaudio. This explains the regressions since Jaunty. Having said this, pulseaudio integration is getting better and better - I would be very surprised if there were major issues for large portions of the community with sound in the LTS release.
The point isn't that other Distros have the same problem, the point is that noone should have this problem. Better quality control makes for a better OS - end of story.

No, I didn't read the article.
You didn't complain when Windows 7 entered beta or RC. This is tech news. Get used to it or head over to digg.
OK, I feel stupid now. Truly I missed my own spelling mistake and therefore missed eln's nice joke.

as much as 80% of what you read is hyperbole. Irony intended.

Dude, tick the 'Post Anonymously' box....please.
Giant did a good job with it.
but with the auto-dimmer functionality you won't need to worry about looking directly into the sun.
I can see the headlines now: Mass pandemonium on highway 17, hacker turns on all bionic-eye auto-dimmers in area.
I will personally wait until there is an open source implementation of all the hardware - allowing me to control the friggin' things.
....and so we witness the demise of the 'whoosh'.

Noone got the bill joke? Thats depressing. =P
The question then is: waddle we do about it?
Parent is right, then you're either thrown in jail or slapped with a hefty bill.

There's a conspiracy here....I'm pretty sure no one these days get taught that two wrongs don't make a right.

Politicians making it through grade school? What planet are you from? ;)
