Why would it be opened so long after it occured? In that much time stuff probably will have changed a lot and the incentive to make those verifications will probably be long dead. I'd say 2 to 5 years would seem reasonable if there has to be a delay. But then again I don't really understand why there should be one anyway.
Even if there was no specific fee, you'd end up paying for it through your taxes. Bills are always payed by individuals indirectly. A government cannot have any money without individuals paying taxes. A company cannot have any money without customers buying products.
Let's assume the bill is going to be OVER 9000! The government says: Hey, don't worry folks, you won't have to give in a penny, we'll assume the whole bill. In the end, they'll be paying with money that could have been spent on services you actually wanted. So yeah, your taxes didn't change, it's what they're being used for that has been slightly changed against your own interest.
I rarely go past the first page of results (which means 10 results in my case). I don't really care about malware that makes it to the first 20-30 results.
#1 Chrome doesn't represent 100% of non-IE browsers #2 If Chrome doesn't represent 100% of non-IE browsers, then you haven't verified that "it works just fine in non-IE browsers" #3 The video isn't "using a pretty standard Flash player", you might be doing so, but people on an iPhone might be using a service to convert flash to HTML5 which isn't a pretty standard player.
You're right. Google says there is no slow down based on their response speed, but in reality, the slow down is noticeable on old machines that execute javascript slowly even with the latest chrome versions.
Carving fag on a travestite's chest isn't terrorism. It's a death threat against homosexual people. Instead of labeling crimes as "hate crimes", we should subdivide them into two different crimes. Murder, and death threats against a large group of people supported by an example.
... that the design principle at the foundation of the Internet should be re-engineered. The Internet was meant to be a means of communication that couldn't be severed easily.
I guess NASA has already calculated that they would profit more by selling their patent rather than licensing it. Let's just hope that licensing the patent after selling it won't cost them more than they've earned in the end.
Indeed, the JavaScript error console is very reliable with Firefox. More than with Safari from my experience. Firebug's capability of modifying a page dynamically to test changes without going back to the source code is also easier to use than Safari's developer tools which aren't as polished yet.
I keep using Firefox precisely because there are things I can't do as easily with other browsers as I can with Firefox. I yet have to see another browser which will do better than a combination of Adblock, NoScript, Firebug, Greasemonkey, Ghostery, Flagfox and PasswordHasher.
Pope Benedict XVI has warned that people are in danger of being unable to discern reality from fiction because of questioning blind faith. "Reconsideration of dogmas and the refusal to believe proposals without proof can make it impossible to distinguish truth from illusion and can lead to damnation instead of salvation. The questioning individual can also become independent from the Bible, it can give birth to a virtual world, with various consequences -- above all the risk of indifference towards the Church," he said.
I guess that if my ISP's servers ever got infected, then either they would cut their ownselves off the internet or the backbone to which they are connected would do that for the rest of the world? All ideas of disconnecting people from the internet because they are "infected" are trash. We're only treating a symptom of a problem: lack of security in application development.
Well it's a short-sighted fix considering you're losing the resources you might need in order to update your anti-virus (or actually get one).
Besides, somebody who cannot afford to have his machine cleaned up by a professionnal might claim to have cleaned his computer to have his connection reactivated only to get it deactivated again when it starts receiving more instructions from the swarm leader.
Jailbreaking to bypass a carrier lock-in isn't a better reason than jailbreaking to run your own software that didn't go through the app store. The only difference is that bypassing a carrier lock-in might be a more widespread reason than running software that didn't go through the app store.
If the reason for allowing jailbreaking is to allow people to bypass carrier lock-in, then there is a serious problem. The rationale for allowing jailbreak should be that you fucking own the hardware. End of discussion.

More sales for Steam alright.

I was talking about Chrome, not Chrome OS!

I wonder how well the hosts file can scale. Would it handle thousands of "blocked" domains without noticeably slowing down your browsing?

Quote-worthy.
Well you just contradicted yourself. They won't if it won't get their customers to overlook poor quality and/or poor service...
That used to be the same on the internet. Eventually that will change as well.
End result:
Hell... It's about time!
Indeed, following the same logic, there can't be sin as it was god's will anyway and he knew what we'd do.
I'd touch the stove myself if my mother told me not to while doing it herself.
Pope gets the same treatment.
The same warning coming from Asimov has much more weight.

Precisely what I was about to argue.
Being cut off the internet sure as hell won't help you clean up your mess.
Nice car analogy as well.
+1.

That's how you make something's price go up. You make sure it remains scarce.
