Why do you think these pollutants are no longer being spewed out? Because the power companies felt bad for all the acid rain and pollution they were causing? No, it's because the EPA came into existance and made them clean up their acts. There is always more that can be done and yes CO2 can be captured. I didn't say it is easy or economically feasible but yes it can be done.
This is exactly part of the issue of the slowdown over time. The system spends more and more time searching for the correct files in the SxS jungle to use with each system call. Yes the registry can get muddled up but bloat caused by MS architecture failures seems to be the culprit in my opinion. I don't have metrics or references just 20 years experience as an admin. The SxS mess was created to fix the DLL hell mess.
An often overlooked killer is the environment path. Say for instance you install a program that prepends their path to the environment path and guess where the OS starts it's search every time it looks for an object on disk, in that folder. The entry %SystemRoot%\system32 should be the first in the path.
I noticed the same thing too. Even going back 20 years to the very first graphing calculators the prices have not changed much. The technology is so much more advanced now but the price and the screen quality seem to have stayed the same.
We need an open source graphing calculator project. OGCPC! (one graphing calculator per child).
All retailers and software providers must comply with this initiative if they want accept Visa cards as payment. Having worked in the retail POS software industry for the last 11 years I have seen all sorts of non-complient behaviour. Just because someone passes a law or publishes a standard doesn't mean that everyone is following said law/standard. Everyone stores your card information at some level or another.
Used to be good beer, before Miller started brewing it for them. Some of the seasonals are still decent but the original Sam Adams had lost it's good taste years ago. IMO
Right you are. That was what first made his fortune. He designed a chip that recognized the increased volume of commercials and skipped over them or changed the channel (been a while since I read the book).
I think another reason this failed is the connection to the gun industry. Remember the lawsuits against gun manufacturers. Gun manufacturers aren't responsible for killing people, the users are. Same with this. The software company isn't responsible for what the user does with the software, the end user is the resposible party.
If SCOTUS let the RIAA sue the software companies, then it may open the door for similar lawsuits in other industries.
I could be wrong, anybody have examples to prove otherwise?
I work for a software company that has it's corporate headquarter in Montreal and I find working with my Canadian colleaqes to be quite frustrating. Many of the people I work with never even try to figure out a problem themselves before calling and whining. I know this is not indicative of the whole country but I wouldn't doubt if it was of Quebec. And yes even the French can't stand the Canadian francophones.
Hell Yeah. I still have a couple of printouts of school reports that I did using GEOS. My first exploration into different typefaces and I'd use'm all in one document printed out on a Mannesman Tally 80 dot-matrix printer. Time for the rise of Assembler.

The whole language of Prolog. Only took a semester of it in college 20 years ago but what a strange recursive language.
That exactly what I was thinking. Wouldn't it be less costly to grow the hair just a bit longer than to develop stripes?
Next they need to test this theory on the Okapi to see how it is affected by biting flies. Do flies only bite legs and shoulders?
Yes.

Yes, lets put more lawyers to work. Visa has already led an initiative to make credit card usage more secure, it's called CISP, Cardholder Information Security Program. You can find information here: http://usa.visa.com/business/accepting_visa/ops_ri sk_management/cisp.html

I agree. The Chili Cookoff is my personal favorite too.
