Neither there are for Go as well. Each is challenging in its own way, Chess having complex movements in a small space, while Go having vast movement choices albeit simple rule.
When I first saw the title of the post, I thought the global icon of capitalism was actually just another instrument for USA's imperialism, trying to expose secret documents of all other governments in the world! The error would be such that when a navy member munches on a quarter pounder, the chemical substances contained in the food will react with the brain and reprogram it into thinking the host is a US patriot, and thus having the urge of performing espionage missions.
Man, I really have to move to one of those tin-foil coated house ASAP. At least it'll make me less paranoid.
OP argues that if you buy old songs, you are deprived of the money for use to buy new songs. That is what ey meant by cannibalizing the sales. Distributors should care whether $10 comes from old/new songs, because they might own the new songs and not the old, or VV.
OTOH, you argue that if people listen to old songs (by downloading for free), they will not listen to new songs (even if they still have the money to buy). A different matter altogether. But your argument on music sales still holds; free downloads might have caused recent sales shrink.
So what is the criteria for being 'ethical'? Is it following proper business practices, not breaking laws, not getting on people's nerves, or is it being philantropic?
.. photos are taking up a lot of space because normal people don't use the craptastic phone camera for their normal camera, so most photos are a decent 10 megapixel in size.
Yeah. it makes me wonder: just how many of those 10 megapixel ever get used? I see that most cameras nowadays default to using the best resolution it can give, and people who know nothing about their own gadgets and care only to take pictures, will gobble up all the space on the storage card, then upload it to Facebook, watches as the upload progresses slowly due to the unnecessarily large image size, only to have a scaled down image (Facebook maximum seems to be 720 px width/height) shown on the gallery. While it is possible for others to download the high resolution version, almost no one cares to, so it's wastage on the user side (storage space, upload time), and the server side (also storage, and processing)
But you don't necessarily have to use the former 3 in a way that they replace web technologies. You can use them purely for perfromance optimization as well.
Wow, I'd love to have bash in my browser too! I'm tired of scripting with Javascript and having to learn XUL. Now I expect more linux gurus to write extensions for Firefox! Oh, I'd also love to be able to launch wget from within the hidden browser bash to download... web pages.
And here I was just trying out the programs from a generic ad-ridden website which produce high-pitched sounds (even those outside of hearing range) to see if they really would go away. I used to have it running on a notebook baco then, and if my memory serves me correctly, they should render the mosquitoes immobile. But now I still am seeing them flying about happily despite the program running.
Crap, it had a stack overflow and crashed!
Anyways, if the new breed has shorter lifespan, how should they survive in the wild? Or does it mean we have to keep introducing them periodically?
Not to mention position:fixed thing causes unbearable CPU usage that slows scrolling, even with smooth scrolling off. And for some reason everyone's blaming javascript for it.

No, LyX is a WYSIWYM (what you see is what you mean). Not quite WYS. An example of WYSIWYG for LaTeX would be OpenOffice/LibreOffice.
Yes, I'm trolling.
It worked with Google Chrome. So why not?
In /., you're supposed to give a car analogy, not a statesman, nor a politician.
Let's see.. if a car can't work even while its mileage is still zero, you call it, uh... what?
That shows how little I know of cars.

Yeah, I suppose humanity needed to find out many other ways to invent the wheel.
If slashdot keeps coming up with more car articles, someday we have to come up with our anti-car-analogy comments.
And this water came from?
Hi, I'm your average reader. Am I missing something?
They should've reused them.

The guy who tells you how to find an assassin is still considered a criminal, even if he doesn't do the killing...
Hmm, I wonder what a Linux-equivalent of an assassin is like.
Marquee!

An update is not a new title (unless you chose to do so), so no extra $20 incurred here.

Nay, thou should consider comp.os.ms-windows.setup instead!
And yet, it isn't the abstract. Have you tried comparing the text that appears on the search result with the actual abstract?

Oh wait, now you're predicting the fall of Firefox as well?

Would it also create a stateless leader? The type which leaves no cookies?
What, Angry Birds is the next Flash now? What happened to HTML5?
