The current generation of any product line is usually fairly rushed and experimental. That does not mean the product itself is bad, but we should expect a big jump from the next generation.
This is standard for any large group though. Most people at Microsoft don't want to write a bad operating system. Even the higher level managers all the way up. The problem comes not in the bureaucrats, but in the bureaucracy. The old saying being, "The path to hell is lined with good intentions."
I think the puzzle ideas and note takers of WoW have switched from the old mapping the world and figureing out where every little corner is, to the theory crafting of figuring out the exact game mechanics of each item to figure out things like DPS, threat, ability to tank or heal etc... While the basics are quite simple, to tune a character to top the charts will be quite complicated and are constantly disputed.
What drove the prices down was the market pressure. Intel was able to make more money by selling a lot more processes for a little less. This gave them the incentive to reduce the manufacturing costs in order to make more money. At which point they can adjust the prices to find the market clearing point.
End of software patents, microsoft accepting something with the letters GPL in it. Cats and dogs living together. I think these are all signs of the Apocalypse.
Wasn't it statistically shown that most people that get hit by a bus are very likely to survive and be just fine with little more than perhaps an overnight hospital visit?
Depends, auto-apt will actually suggest the package to install just by typeing in the command, or you can configure it to search and install the package you need to run that command the first time you try to run it.
I thought Scifi was just a way that people could project racist stereo types and project hate in a non-specific manor. "They're not really people so we can slaughter them. Who cares if they bare a striking resemblance to chinese people."
In two of the 3 articles you mentioned they still say that bigger is safer. They also mention that rollover accidents are less safe in an SUV. Not due to the "large" but due to the "SUV" (being higher of the ground and more prone to rollover.)
In one article talking about vehicle to vehicle accedents: "...SUV drivers are right to think they are more likely to kill than be killed."
All 3 seemed to tout Vans as safest, large cars and trucks as safe, SUVs mostly safe other than prone to rollover and small cars as not safe.
but, isn't that what the article is talking about. I don't know because of course I didn't read it. I figured I was doing my due diligence by skimming the heading before posting. But the impression I got was that they'd have pay meters on the streets similar to parking meters that you could plug into.
Keep repeating this garbage and eventually it may be true. In one very limited crash test of slamming a car into a brick wall the smaller car can be better. All other instances the larger massive car will out perform.
The other thing I've learned is that "crisis" is hyperbole. In the US, we've enjoyed cheaper-than-should-be fuel for decades. People still drive to work and still drive to the store, regardless if gas costs $4/gallon or $2.
but everyone stops to think about it more now. maybe one trip to the store a week instead of two. Maybe a work from home day if the job allows. Perhaps staying home for the weekend rather than heading out of town. Even just driving a little slower to improve gas millage.
No mater the reasons, people are driving less. Where for the past 3 year my drive was a steady 1hr 15min to get to work in bumper to bumper traffic, it is now a 45min 45-65mph drive. And the traffic should be worse because they just tore up the freeway and have lane restrictions.

Basicly, and it's called Virtual Infrastructure.

I know nobody who pronounces it like that. You are judged by the company you keep.
Hmm, Lets analyze the facts:
Fact: "Al gore claimed to have created the internet."
Speculation: "I don't think Al gore ment to claim that he invented the internet."

The amusingly ironic thing, those are the people that will probably worry about this more.

If he gets caught then HE ANAL too.
Metric or standard years?

We just need to get that guy that declared Pluto is no longer a planet to declare that electricity no longer causes data loss.
Side note: He also declared that north is no longer a direction, blue is no longer a color, and your sister is no longer a virgin.

I'm holding out for the Cherry2000.

My buddies tricked, out convertible, Impalla's engine was replaced with a Daaammnn!
At least that's what I said when I saw it. It's pretty sweet.
