Will 'resolve' the situation themselves to prevent South Korea, USA and other countries to have to intervene when North Korea goes to far. They would be able to establish a government friendly to China and preserve their interests in the region. Also, they would be able to show their military power in a war every other nation will find just.
I don't see anything morally wrong with what Cisco did. From the report: "The Legislative Auditor believes that the Cisco sales representatives and engineers had a moral responsibility to propose a plan which reasonably complied with Cisco's own engineering standards," Cisco had a responsibility to sell the highest dollar amount of its product. West Virginia had the responsibility of doing due diligence before buying millions of dollars worth of equipment. If there was no bribing, then nothing morally or legally wrong happened. West Virginia official, on the other hand, wasted millions of dollars by not doing their job and should be fired.
Do you think that in the future you will be able to repair your flexible Amoled phone and personal computing device that has everything packaged in one chip? Things are getting smaller, faster and lighter. The fact that they cannot be repaired it's inevitable, live with it.
I don't think it's a fair apples to apples comparison. Making an ebook requires additional effort. There no automatic "ripping" for books, and they require specific formatting and typesetting. Similarly, a remastered version of a movie at a different resolution is technically the "same movie", but you wouldn't claim a right to the higher definition work because you probably realize that additional work went into the creation of that content.
On the other hand, if you could scan and convert your books automatically, you would probably have a right to keep that copy. This is my opinion as an armchair lawyer.
I am surprised nobody mentioned radio jamming yet. Military communications are usually highly resistant to jamming using sophisticated spread spectrum techniques and high powered radios. This thing could be probably halted with a microwave.
I completely agree with you. I tried to use OpenOffice and LibreOffice on Linux, Mac and Windows for presentations and it almost always disappoints me with little bugs and crashes here and there.
I think you can safely assume that most people on the Internet have, in fact, not met your ex-girlfriend. Unless you broke up because of some egregious case of cheating.
You made a very good point. I agree. But excluding the natural resources from the analysis of Norway's unique social welfare system is also over-simplifying the issue.
I read negative reviews as well as positive and try to weight in the fact that negative reviews are less likely to be fake. However, if most did like I do, PR companies would switch their tactic to post negative reviews about competing products. It's a very hard problem to solve.
EEGs are terrible when used as polygraph in a court of law. This is because they are not perfect and make mistakes fairly often, therefore cannot be used as evidence beyond reasonable doubt. However, if you want to get "some" information about a person, with only a degree of certainty, they are pretty damn good.
Yes, I do know, the reason why I am upset is that many names seem to be just companies protecting their brand name. What's the purpose of.bbc? The BBC applied for it, because the had to. Or how about.audi?
Physical laws only apply in TFA, titles exist in a parallel universe where physics does not have strict laws and the only thing that matters is clicks.

Now we just need to create concrete digging computer viruses and we are there.
One/two dollar(s) per month to have a Facebook NOT sell my personal information. That would be much more than what Facebook is making per user at the moment (3.7B$ in revenue with ~800 million users in 2011). However, this feature would implicitly acknowledge to the public that they are selling your information. This is something that everybody sort of knows, but perhaps they don't want to make it clear.

and yet, I just use it to commute to work. What a waste.

Especially incredibly wealthy super villains.

Your premise is incorrect. The reason why Norway is one of the richest countries in the world and Norwegians can still work 34h is because they have vast oil resources. http://seattletimes.com/html/businesstechnology/2016126666_norwayoil07.html
The problem is that we have to wait until April 1st of next year to implement the technology. What do we do in the meantime?

On the Internet "in history" means "in the past five years".

Reading that list makes me really angry. ICANN is doing a big disservice to everybody with the new TLDs.
buy a copy of an old Winning Eleven and play it on my laptop now.

Yep. The math checks out, I am a RIAA mathematician.
Something like that already exists (check the GunStock Shooter). If you use it in a war zone though there might be collateral damage.
It was probably immersed into a Somebody Else's Problem (SEP) field.
Slashdot should have a script that finds relevant XKCD comics for every story. About 23% of all the posts link to XKCD anyhow.
