Millions of people arround the world spend their entire working days walking on their feet, it's not that hard once you get used to it.
But in the US workers use machines just to get arround airports, no wonder they are fat. Gez they spend all day at work utilising tools to avoid burning energy & instead buy exercise machines off TV shooping channels because they get fat.
You'd think they'd realise if they don't use the Sedgeway machine (& walk instead), then they don't need the exercise machine.
The A380 is for flights between NY,LA Sydney, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore/Bangkok, Lagos, Johanesburg, Rio/BA & Heathrow/Rome/Mandrid/Schipol/Frankfurt/Shannon/CD G.
It's to overcome landing slot congestion at these congested 1st tier international airports. As such it will be a great success, particularly when you take economies of scale & international duopoly route agreements into account.
You see many international routes are bound by bi-govt duopoly arrangements, where only one airline each from the 2 nations plys the direct route between their 2 countries. Replacing 747s with A380s means that instead of the 2 airlines both having one flight taking off & landing each day at either end, they can have a alternating day arrangement. This means huge cost savingS in landing slot costs, crew costs 'n fuel
Too much competition gets in the way of economies of scale which are needed for sustainable cheaper prices (this is why govt gas/electricty/water/telco utility monopolies always do better).
The best thing that can happen to the airline industry is for United's chapter 11 rescue to fail. Afterall look how QANTAS is booming now Ansett has gone balls up. & prices haven't gone up much, economies of scale has ment sustainable low prices rather than the unsustainable low prices of unsustainable competition.
Aseries of 120 of them were s'pose to be built but in the end only 5 were built, but Volga Shipyard still has all the jigs 'n drawings, etc & will build more to order.
I'd be guessing the parts of the plane that are at slight angles to the horizontal have air running across their surface. Then there's parts of the aircraft in font & behind the engines

The best news the airline industry could have is for United's Chapter 11 attempt to fail, the end of united would overnight make America's other airlines much more sustainable.
An example of this is Anset going belling up in Oz, meaning QANTAS now makes raging profits, & prices on average haven't gone up. So it's not a matter of less competition meaning higher profits, it's a matter of greater market share/turnover making the fixed costs less in relation to the gross profits, IE simply economies of scale.
Too many distributions

It fucks with economies of scale.
Look at KDE verses Gnome. No one can use both at hte same time but double the developers are need as would be needed if just one existed.
Plus apps have to make themselves compatible with both, meaning more redundent development.
FMU Trade secret provisions are incompatible with copyright law.
So AFAIK this is what you should have typed:
Under current international copyright law. ..to which the US is now a signatory, all original works are automatically copyrighted at the time of creation(unless expressively certified a trade secret)No special filing is required.
From what I understand, MS has copyrighted Windows binaries, but kept the source as a trade secret.
Well, if I got that right, all that needs happen is for someone not covered by a non-disclosure agreement to come across the source & its out of the bag. Say some Indian govt employee loses a laptop with the source on it & someone else finds it, or say some worker throws a CD out, thinking its fucked when its not, & those people who go through the garbage find it, or what ever. If my understanding is correct, once that happens then anyone would be be able to use the source on any project, for example WINE could use it to perfect their compatibility. & quite legally too, well that is if I'm correct in my understanding of trade secrets.
Only problem is, wasn't CSS a trade secret, so why's DeCSS banned? Surelly once Xing 'accidently' exposed CSS, MoRE was free to use it?
Actually a good percentage of 'powered by' ATI 3rd party boards are built on the same assembly lines as 'built by' ATI boards, using the exact same PCBs & parts. Just the printed label & stickers are different, & maybe the PCB colour too.
Mind you some OEMs do manufacture their own 'built by' ATI boards on their own lines using their own designs

"We are talking functionality. Plop some average end user down and let them use Word 6 (Office 4.2? I believe). Now plop them down at a computer running Office XP and fire up Word. Watch that end user be able to accomplish all the same tasks without blinking an eye. So again, what the hell are you talking about? So fucking what if they updated the eye candy. Clippy bothers you? Turn his ass off like everyone else does."
Same goes for any officesuite word processor
Anyone used to Word 95 could use any contemporary Word Perfect, Lotus, Open Office, Gobe or whatever word processor, just as easily as Word 2K or XP.
It's more the lack of perfect 100% MS file compatiblity that turns businesses off moving away form Office.
Don't worry me, I go by the fail safe method of just sticking to rich text files. It's not that hard, after clicking 'Save As', instead of just clicking 'OK', one just selects 'rich text' in the file type menu. Pity half the people out there have never tried clicking the file type menu & just think Word only saves files in the DOC format.
Slashdot Mirror
He was implying Europeans actually turn their phones off at the flicks while Americans don't.
The implication being that Europeans don't complain about mobiles going off at the flicks because it doesn't happen there.
Surelly such restrictions applies to the bloke in the article too?
& for many years they've been switching to Windows more 'n more.

This 'last just past the warrenty period' & 'cheaper to replace than repair' mentality is really pissing me off.
Mind you I understand it.
