Of course dark matter exists. There's a discrepancy in our observations, and dark matter is defined as whatever is responsible for that discrepancy. The real question is, what is dark matter? How do we explain its existence?
It would be the biggest space sim in years. But that doesn't make it a hit. People today don't want realistic controls, they want an FPS in space. Make a real X-Wing sequel, and people would hate it for its difficulty. Make a watered down X-Wing, and the people who remember the original would hate it.
This would the reason I'd want some visibility and input into this data, the same we have (now) with credit bureau informatino.
This puts the burden on the wrong party, just like we have now with credit bureau information. The burden for accuracy should be on the data broker, and they should be liable if they sell incorrect data.
No, the airline cares how much money they can extract from you. How much fuel they need to get you from A to B might be relevant, but I wouldn't take their word for it. Let's see an actual chart relating passenger weight to fuel efficiency.
Imagine boarding a plane in Los Angeles, lying down on a comfy pad, and then the next thing you know... you're waking up in New York, or Paris, or Moscow, hearing the local time and weather from the soothing, confident voice of a captain who you just *know* held an eight-hour orgy with the rest of the flight crew while everyone else was sedated.
I'm happy to let them spend all the money they want on junk advertising. It's a compete waste of time, effort, and resources on their part, and it costs me nothing but a slightly heavier recycling bin. And it performs a valuable service in informing me who *not* to do business with in the future.
Fair enough. If you want to nitpick on network transparency vs forwarding, I'll grant you that. X forwarding drops some features. But it doesn't drop any useful features. Only eye candy.
What's to know how to do? We know how to grow corn and sell it. Just do the same with Cannabis. There's no reason it has to be more complicated than that.
NX is just a proxy. I use X forwarding in conjuction with NX, it follows that I use X forwarding. There is nothing disingenuous about that. You might as well complain that I'm not using HTTP because I have a caching proxy.
I do agree that X forwarding is not perfect as it is, but it can be fixed by building NX into X, or into SSH, instead of throwing away the entire display system.
As long as I'm guaranteed that my local display can talk to remote applications, no matter what the flavor of the month is, I'll be happy. There needs to be a universal standard.
If you're too stupid to understand the definition of censorship, you're not going to believe me anyway. Fact is, I use FreeNX every day. It works, and it works well. Keep making an ass of yourself if you want, but that won't change reality.
Network transparent means that the application performs the same whether it's local or remote. It's transparent to the user, not transparent to a network sniffer.
Doesn't RDP forward an entire desktop? If so, that's no replacement for X forwarding. But maybe FreeRDP is more capable than Microsoft's version. What the hell are we using Microsoft technology anyway?
Investigating, arresting and prosecuting people for violating these kinds of laws is unbelievably difficult and expensive and rarely nets more than wrist-slaps. Cases take years, litigators cost millions and there is and endless supply of replacement spammers to replace the prosecuted. Governments executives and their staffs know this and have better things to do.
Playing a game leads to "I'm gonna program my own game" about as often as driving a car leads to "vehicular homicide."
We grew up in the 80s. During the 80s it was very common for a kid playing 8 bit games on an 8 bit PC to try his hand at making his own. And many of them were as good as many games published commercially.
Is it really unreasonable to want kids today to at least have that opportunity? Shouldn't we at least give them the tools and some encouragement? If they don't use them, that's their choice. But it should be their choice and not foisted on them by their parents choice of platform. Modern technology should mean more opportunities to learn and create, not fewer.
Hire some investigators to wait by the phone for a robocall. When they get one, play along. While they play along, collect evidence. When you have enough evidence, arrest the perp and send him to prison.

Now someone can port it to Linux.
You're going to have to wait for Star Citizen and Elite: Dangerous.

Why do you assume he voted for Obama just because he dislikes Romney? Most of the reasons one would dislike Romney apply equally to Obama.

Yeah, right. The "flight crew".

Why force them? More accuracy increases the value of the database. I'm certainly not participating in the invasion of my own privacy.
nobody quite knew how to do it right away.

Portugal did it, and they have the single largest body of people in rehab of any country on Earth now.
Better than having the single largest body of people in prison of any country on Earth.
Meh. I haven't noticed any significant differences.

Great, just what we need, multiple incompatible remote rendering back ends.
I don't believe you because I use X forwarding every day. Anyone who says "X IS NOT NETWORK TRANSPARENT" is a liar.

Like throwing potheads in jail.

How can it be easier than 'apt-get install nvidia-glx'?

Is this a trick question?
