They haven't just won one seat but about 14-15. Interestingly, more seats would have been mostly useless to them as they have only nominated 15 candidates -- if they gain more seats than that or if they have to replace a member mid-term, they will have to leave that seat empty.
The JavaScript that you have to write isn't like any JavaScript you would write anywhere else because of the need to call so many internal system methods.
It's not like there is any standard cross-platform API for application development in Javascript.
I really don't understand the level of vanity that causes some men to be prepared to throw so much money at trying to fix a process that doesn't cause any harm other than in their own heads.
Of course since Vista and 7 won't allow you to close dwm.exe, there is likely a whole slew of stuff underneath that will likely need to be re-architected to allow for such a thing to happen.
You can, but it immediately restarts. Doesn't look like changing that would require any change to the architecture.
Depending on how much slack you want to give Google, this is either a case of the judge's order being over broad or Google deliberately implementing it in an over broad fashion in order to make a point. I tend toward the latter interpretation; they are not so subtly reminding the papers that they need Google more than Google needs their content.
Third possibility: Even though Google would be able to list their sites as long as they don't provide the cached copy, they aren't prepared to blacklist individual pages "from caching only". So they had to blacklist them entirely.
PC is shorthand not just for Personal Computer, but also, "IBM compatible Personal Computer."
Modern "Intel Boxes" have a different keyboard connector, DVI instead of VGA, generally no floppy drive and can't run DOS programs anymore (XP has issues with them and they don't work at all anymore on 64bit Windows). Modern "PCs" are not at all "IBM compatible".

[Citation needed], please.
when I was in high school in the 90's they still had math books from the 70's
I didn't realize that highschool-level mathematics changed so dramatically since the 1970's
Not mathematics, but pedagogic principles certainly did.
That plastic roboter probably contains less than that.
Java still != Javascript

The link to LKML in the article is broken. Here's the real one:

Towson, MD, 21286-7840 (is that a real zip code?).
Apparently, yes
I'm shocked to hear even paper and pencil now require an internet connection.
These bastards.
Do you have empirical evidence on this?
That's bullshit. Without the PC, I can't use the PC. Without the media, I can still use the game.
Imagine I paid in cash and threw away the disc as I want to be bothered by as little physical stuff as possible.
Nope. As you can see in this chart (taken from a previous post here of someone else), the population is actually growing linearly.

Maybe your hair just wasn't awesome enough.
Where in the software-world do you see developers chucking out all their code ever 3 -4 years and starting over?
It's not true that Microsoft would be doing this. Wordpad in Windows 7 still offers you to insert a Paintbrush image.
You didn't really expect that to help, did you?
Amoral = doesn't affect morality

Never been involved in a union, but as far as I know unions save part of the dues so they can pay part of their striking member's salary.
His country probably doesn't share the constitution of the USA :)
It should be called Kontrol Kenter and Gontrol Genter, respectively.

Try doing it on Windows. Or Ubuntu, for that matter.
