I set my user agent to windows ie 6 sp 1 in order to get into sites which require IE. In fact, I use firefox, konqueror, safari, and IE, in that order of frequency. User-agent strings are useless.
patent claims are couched in descending levels of abstraction, so that if a more general claim proves indefensible, a more specific claim is used as a fall-back position. Copyright is like the most specific possible patent claim formulation, and does nothing to defend the invention as an abstraction. We NEED a public-interest patent foundation to fund these applications.
By focussing on clock speeds the article's author has failed to notice that Intel's new flagship line (the 7xx series) is continuing to improve while their higher-clocked but end-of-life Pentium 4 line is topped out.
For some value of "works". Autoconf and automake are
sorry hacks that should never have been undertaken.
Instead, there should be one master "config.h" file
that infers from the platform headers exactly what
HAVE_xxx macros should be defined, and one master "config.c" that abstracts over differences where it
is trivial to do so. Everybody shares that, and
nobody needs this jiggery-pokery with autoconf, automake, dlltool running recursive m4s. For the love of God, Montressor -- m4!\
Yes, and that is the problem. An ia32 executable running on debian-amd64 does not see an LSB-conformant ia32 world. Personally, I think it is silly to call that an incompatibility, since ia32 is an emulation layer. Neither does a PPC executable running in emulation on debian-ia32 see an LSB-conformant PPC world, but we don't claim that ia32 falls short of LSB compliance on those grounds.
The article was misleading. LSB is quite compatible with amd64. The incompatibility alluded to in debian is incompatibility of the ia32 subsystem with the LSB for ia32. It's like saying that debian ppc is incompatible with the LSB because when you run an ia32 emulator that imports the filesystem from the host, the resulting system image is not LSB conformant.
The real sphincters are the prosecutors who chose to waste public monies on these frivolous prosecutions. Messing up people's lives for no valid public interest, for the sake of personal publicity and aggrandizement, has to rank up there with child pornographer as a contribution to human culture.
someone could have build a trapdoor into the eletroweak field when the universe was designed, so that every time someone builds a computer from raw ore, it inserts a dongle on the imaginary axis.
Wow. It's amazing that anyone at Princeton could publish such a facile definition of irony, when their university press is putting out stuff like this!

The correct term is "copying". You would never engage in copying copyrighted material.
Evidently you don't believe in fair use.
That's a tebibyte. "Tera-" is an ISO standard prefix meaning 10^12. "Tebi-" is an IEC standard
prefix meaning 2^40.
kibi Ki 2^10 = 1024
mebi Mi 2^20 = 1 048 576

the fat osama with the funny nose was a hoot, i admit, but i can't see the relevance to digitial compositing, since it was a natural video sequence.
when europeans use 'kilograms' they almost always
mean 'units of 9.81 newtons'. go figure.
this is a crock. this act could be taken to ban
computers, electricity, or even talking above a
whisper.
XMLSpy is God's own XML editor.
It does *everything*. And well.

There's no good reason to do that for Sarge, though.
The architecture (amd64) is compatible with the LSB,
just like alpha, or ppc.
It would be good to have the prevalent modern architecture represented in Sarge.

Those bugs being the bugs in IPv4. One would hope
to be rid of IPv4 sooner than that, but some
coffee makers might last that long, especially
the (ahem) homebrew models.
The PHP license, in practical terms, can be defined as: "Whatever". Nobody gives a rip.

But if you want to simulate a billion molecules,
DC is the way to go: Then it's not a tightly
coupled system.
Ok, so it's not as bad as h.323, but SIP is not
firewall-friendly -- Skype is.
We should make it talk IAX2.

Hey, we murrikins have a message for your kind.

One has to ask, however, exactly what the
patentable innovation of FaceTop could be,
given ClearBoard's prior art.
Right.
I mean
how fucking stupid would it be
to claim to own Conservation of Momentum?
Well, that's what IP players do every day,
and it's very fucking stupid.
That's how fucking stupid it is:
Very.
