Of course a possible side effect (and a good one from an e-waste point of view) is that people would hold onto their old phones longer. I see this as a good thing.
Actually, I imagine piracy is a major reason why Adobe would do this. Photoshop is probably the most pirated app of all time. Gimp will probably have a windfall of new users soon.
This is what happens when hipster UI developers from the mobile and web world come into the Desktop and Server world and think they are the shit. WTF? The Fedora community seems to have gone apeshit insane in recent years. First their stupid nonesense about moving/bin to/usr/bin, now this. It wouldn't be much of a problem if Fedora was an obscure experiemental distribution, but its not. Its a feeder of ideas and technology for one of the most widely used server distributions in the world. These developers are being irresponsible.
HUDs on cars currently are also less intrusive and only take up 5-10% of your viewing area. Google Glass will probably cause people to focus on the road differently just like when you hold your phone to your head it causes you to lose mental focus.
It means public information, don't pretend you didn't know.
I didn't, because I've only heard it refered to as public information before. I've heard the term sources refering to where you get your sources from, but not open-source information. It turns out Bruce Perens acknowledged this special use of the term open source in the intelligence community when he announced open source software: http://www.catb.org/~esr/open-source.html
The intelligence community probably hates it when this happens. *rolls eyes*
Ok, thanks for the explanation and wasn't aware that the term open source information had such a long history. Still, the term open source gets used in ways that it probably shouldn't be in relation to software.
What is Open Source information? The OSI foundation doesn't seem to be doing a good job of enforcing the trademark of the term Open Source. I hear and see it used in many ways in which it should not be and the term has been grossly eroded in meaning over the past decade.
Try that sometime, see how far you get. Remember there are still a lot of people in the "civilized world" who don't wash their hands after taking a shit. Technology is evolving faster than people.
What movies did they use in their control group? I'm sorry but a 3 page paper with little details on the research is not enough to convince me that they can make any kind of valid conclusion.
Invest in a good voice recognition system and write some regexes that will detect your name in various contexts and alert you if they are leaving their house to come over to yours.
Slashdot Mirror
I'm afraid posting a complaint on Slashdot will do nothing about this issue.

CSS Zen Garden taught me just how awesome CSS can be. If I could just learn it.

The P90 also had the FDIV bug. I know because I had one. I still have that chip sitting on a shelf as a souvenir. It actually ran my first Linux box.
Crowbar?

I guess its kinda a tradition now that its the second year now:

Or in fewer words, Blender is to Maya what GIMP is to Photoshop.
What's Maya? You mean those calendar people?
Well hey, someone has to put those layer 7 switches to good use.

wtf is newzbin2? I used USENET but since existence of online forum... what's the point?
The irony is your username is grumpyman.

"Ever get carded by your FedEx guy? You will."
And the company that will do it for you is AT&T.
I'll be revealing my supercomputer that has finally broken the exaflop barrier in about an hour. (opens Blender)
Can't use Hydro Electric ... damn rivers
Yeah, those DAMN rivers, always getting in the way. We should use a DAM on them to keep them from getting out of control.
(I'm one to talk, we all make mistakes in spelling/grammar like this too from time to time)

It would have been so much funnier if they put the Hindenburg on the H tile instead of that car.
But if they know that we know that they know that we know.
Firefox 16? Nah, I'll wait until they release the Firefox 32. I heard it has better graphics.
