This will be such a device. The Gooseberry is based on the Allwinner A10 platform. Allwinner has announced cooperation with XBMC in the release of their CedarX graphics library for the A10. That's the last piece needed for a fully free software stack on A10 based devices.
more open SoC (Allwinner A10, which is a chinese ARM SoC and isn't bound by the aura of Broadcom NDAs, and also has a sane boot process unlike the Broadcom chip in the Pi that needs a GPU binblob to even boot), and its GPU (ARM Mali400), while closed (as all mobile GPUs are currently), is actively being reverse engineered and an open source driver is expected in the near future
Quoted for emphasis. This will be a fully free platform in the near future. This is the one you want to buy. Sorry Braben.
What's good on the Food Network anymore? It used to have good cooking shows with advice you could actually use (esp, Good Eats). Now any time I turn to it it's just that bleached spiky haired jackass or some really stressed out chefs bitching at each other.
Does the whole world have to stop every time some crazy person snaps? If you knew the victims, I'm sorry for your loss. I didn't, so I'm more interested in the review.
You can thank Bush for that. "Can the United States torture people with 6 feet of iron wrought fencing, heated, and no lube, because someone pitched a tent in a public place? Yes."
If Obama wanted to drop the strip search case, he had 4 years to do it. The violent oppression of Occupy took place completely under Obama's watch. Obama is more authoritarian than Bush ever was. Get over your crush and deal with reality.
I fail to understand why so many MBAs hate unions when they refuse to hire someone without an MBA, thus creating their own union.
MBAs hate unions because unions have power that's not controlled by business. The de facto MBA union is controlled by business interests, so it's OK.
Don't think for a second that their opposition to unions is in any way principled. The goal of every MBA is to maximally exploit everyone and everything. Unions are an obstacle to that. That is all.
It's not simply the President, it's Congress as well.
Also, you can't blame Congress for the lack of prosecution of bankers. Obama controlls the justice department. RICO is already law, and more than sufficient to prosecute banking executives for their fraudulent business practices. Congress has no say in the matter.
Somehow his justice department has time to prosecute people who legally dispense medical marijuana to sick people, but when it comes to wide spread perjury for profit, his justice department pressures state AGs to settle?
Can any Obama supporter tell me why we are supposed to be OK with this? How can any decent human being be OK with this?
There is no political will to take on the Financial Services Industry. It's not simply the President, it's Congress as well.
You shouldn't need political will to enforce the law. It's the law, it's his job, he took an oath to faithfully execute the laws and he has broken that oath.
And, when there is no political will to enforce the law, those responsible for enforcing it should be publically shamed for it at every opportunity. That's what I'm doing. When you get Obama supporters canvassing your neighborhood this fall, make sure you remind them of this. Obama's failure to prosecute bankers for their very well known and undisputed crimes have proven him to be every bit as corrupt as everyone else in Washington. No change, no hope.
Recessions kill. How many people lost their jobs and homes due to no fault of their own in the recession? How many were so demoralized they turned to suicide? How many turned to crime themselves? We may never know, but it's certain that this is no mere property crime.
Obama wants new laws to protect us against a hypothetical threat. But he has failed to use the laws he already has against those who have already damaged this country more than a foreign enemy could hope to. The only explanation is that Obama is not concerned about protecting America at all.
Bankers have already pulled off a caper far worse than the unlikely scenario described here. Obama can direct his justice department to hold these bankers responsible under laws that already exist. How serious can he be about protecting America when he refuses to prosecute criminals who have damaged our national security so thoroughly?
There are plenty of channels, but they all suck. Comedy Central is just about the only one worth watching, and that's just for TDS/TCR and South Park.
Personally, I'd rather watch PBS kids than just about anything else on cable. Educational/Entertainment programming designed for 6 year olds insults my intelligence less than what usually passes as entertainment for mature adults.
This is just another forseeable consequence of the absence of software freedom on the platform. Every author and distributor of non-free software should be scolded every time their policies cause problems. Both Microsoft and Fish are in the wrong.
It's just amazing, though, that they're able with wide-eyed innocence to ask "what's the harm?" to the judge, as if they were not actively looking to deprive someone of their liberty or life based on associations they'd discover with this request.
It's absolutely not amazing if you pay the least bit of attention to civil rights issues. This is totally standard behavior on the part of the thugs in the FBI. And it's almost certain that they will get away with it.
Perhaps more social, but no less boring or devoid of respect. That's where the GP was wrong. Women aren't smart enough to avoid boring disresepcted jobs.
Bain was Romney's "previous employer" in the same way that Microsoft was Bill Gates' previous employer. While Gates was at Microsoft, Microsoft *was* Gates. The same goes for Bain and Romney.
No NSL is legally issued. They are searches without judicial oversight, and prior restraints on free speech. In violation of amendments 4 and 1. Anyone who made an oath to uphold the constitution would be breaking it if they enforced or issued a NSL in any way.

That's why I'm not buying a Pi.

Just because the police do it and get away with it doesn't mean it's legal. e.g. DUI checkpoints, domestic "border checkpoints" etc.

Then why does Gartner's output look like marketing drivel?

Cheers. You can remove that comma though, don't know what I was thinking there.

I am fairly certain the impugned rights are from the 5th and 14th Constitutional Amendments, and in particular the Due Process Clause.
Those too.
There does not appear to be any restraint on speech on these facts.
NSLs come with a gag order.
They don't do anything that other stores are not equally guilty of.
Independently owned stores pay better and treat their employees better than walmart.
So if I boycotted Walmart for being "evil" then I'd have to boycott all the stores, and have nowhere left to shop.
Only because Walmart has used its size to drive independent competitors out of the market.
