I forgot which one, but there is a country where game currency earned needs to be mentioned when doing taxes because the government see this as income and wants to get income taxes on it (even if you don't get real money from it).
You are talking about 1 Gbps ports, not fiber optic cables.
What I mean is, fiber optic cables can not be mass-produced (well), termination and testing of ready made patches is still a partly done by hand. That is what silicon photonics is trying to solve, mass production of fiber optic cables with connectors and all. This should drive down the price.
Well, you might not need to have twice as many. It just depend how much you are willing to pay.
He is using a RAID-array as his primary storage. You will only need the other copy as a disaster recovery. In case you accidentally delete or format or the hardware RAID controller fails and you can't replace it anymore. Or something else stupid like that.
So if you have a RAID5 of your originals and a copy on non-RAID disks and do regular checksums of your data to compare if reading the data from the RAID and non-RAID disks is still the same, you should be OK in most cases. The checksums checks could be rsync -c or ZFS/BTRFS or whatever.
If you want more assurances, you're bigger issue is: you should have your copy off-site.
If you've done all that, only then you might want to make sure the copy has RAID.
Next step up from that is to keep a history of your changes of course, to have a real backup. Not just a copy.
If I remember correctly the cheapest phones are sold for US $12 on the street in China, which are sold for US $ 10 in larger quanities direcly from the factory: http://www.bunniestudios.com/b...
Yes, FirefoxOS is trying to slip in thought a closing window. But it's a a large window. You have to remember more than half of the installed base are still feature phones and still being sold today.
So it can automatically install updates (the service has more permissions than the user, so it can write to the program files directory).
I believe Firefox does it too (obviously it only has one service. I have seen Chrome set up multiple things (service and scheduled tasks) in multiple places, it's kinda crazy).

It also works the other way around. If people don't use the browser features, browser manufactures won't work on improving them.
And they keep saying Android apps are native too.
It's all hilarious.
Didn't you know terrorist use forums ?
I suggest duplicity.

It was intended for mobile: so maybe it should enable the camera and see if you blinked and slowdown or maybe 'scroll back' a bit.

OK, sorry, maybe I should have said: pre-paid is pretty much the only option for the unbanked.

That is what silicon photonics is promising.
Affordable fiber.
"cheaper price point"
That is the whole point of silicon photonics, mass production.
It's not a billion per year, there are a billion smartphones in use in the market right now. It's not a sales figure.
I'm not saying they picked an easy battle, but saying at this point that the war is won is a bit early too.
No, no, in most wetern countries it's mostly subscriptions, not pre-paid.
pre-paid mostly applies to the 'unbanked' of the world (people without a bankaccount), which really is a huge number of people.
Actually, I heared Firefox on Android is the highest rated browser in the Google Play appstore.
Really ? In a market of 4.5 billion phones and 1 billion are smartphones ? That still leaves a large part of the world phones not running Android.
And FirefoxOS is focussing on making it run well on cheap hardware, instead of focussing on other things.

Your doubts are wrong.
It's 3.5 billion have a feature phone, a smaller part of the human race has a smartphone.
But more than have of the people on this planet does own a phone.

I wouldn't mind if they pull it off.
Copyright only applies to the original code. Not the idea.
The original developer said he made it in a few days, so I doubt they used the original code.
It really isn't complicated to create a lookalike game.
If you want to prevent someone from stealing your ideas, you need a patent.
You forgot to mention: the price of SMS Texting in the Netherlands is one of the highest in the world.
Actually, pretty much nobody is happy about the latency that buffers cause for real time traffic. It isn't specific to video or even VoIP.
That is why http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B... has been identified as a problem that needs to be solved.
Thank god, or Van Jacobson and Kathleen Nichols, the've created CoDel to solve the problem.
It is just going to take, years and years before it will be widely deployed.
But atleast now we know the cause and have possible solutions.

Zooko’s Triangle tells us it isn't an easy problem to solve.

And don't forget you have the option to use LGPL for libraries which, to me, always seems like a better idea than straight GPL or AGPL.
