Also, I might add that you can't make such sweeping claims
But that's what people like him do, outsiders who complain about us Americans ("USians") never seem to understand two simple facts:
1. The US as a country is more in line with the idea of the EU as a country and less with France or England as a country. I'd bet that someone from England would get pissy if they were grouped into a sterotype based on someone from Italy; imagine how someone from Florida might feel about being lumped in with the actions of someone from New York (Rome-London=890mi, Albany-Tallahassee=1000mi).
and
2. That perhaps there might be a chance that you cannot, in fact, lump 380+ million people spread out across almost 4 million miles into a single, homogeneous group. I mean, French, English... Korean, Vietnamese... Pakistani, Indian... Michigander, Texan... they're all the same, right?
The Tablet Edition of WinXp was rolled into SP3. Strangely enough, I had XP "Tablet Edition" on my actual tablet (not those bitty things that Mac is selling) until I upgraded to SP3.
Microsoft supported actual tablet computers, not oversized, touch-screen PDAs.
Except that the filing fees in some states can be extortionistic. My business hasn't really grown to where I have enough stable clients to gain a livable income; I'm still in the "side-job for beer money" phase while finishing my degree... I don't have the $600+ lying around to file as a corporation. After web-hosting and paying for the latest industry tools, I'll be lucky if I make $600.
Because the internet has all the answers: every right and wrong one. According to google, a "string quartet" is a type of musical form (it's not).
Some things require that you look them up, and part of that challenge is being able to find the places that have information that is complete, accurate, and up-to-date. There are also things that you just have to know cold.
Unfortunately, most people seem to play at the research thing without actually being able to do legitimate research.
I'll bet that MS's plan for this technology is to use it in the next itteration of Winsuck. They don't want people puzzling out something they plan to announce and market... that would lead to a loss of profits when they bring about "Windows 7: Motion Edition". It would be fun if "TuxMotion" was old news by then.
I'll get one when someone backhacks the drivers for the kinect and publishes them for Linux. It is a nice bit of technology, but it would be far more fun to play with the sensor array attached to a penguin than an XBox...
Honestly, a lot of services with accounts need that kind of feature. My wife and I share a netflix subscription and it would be wonderful for the shows that she watches to not influence the recommendations that it gives me.
I'm surprised that it is not standard practice...
Isn't IANA and ICANN under the auspices of the Department of Commerce? As such, could they not possibly qualify as a "Federal Government/United States critical infrastructure information system or network"?
If they decided to reroute or restrict traffic that passes through the great directory of IP addresses that IANA manages claiming they were trying protect the database from being compromised or somesuch, then things could get interesting.
I think the more important question is, what would count as a "cybersecurity emergency"?
Though, I don't expect this bill to pass.

I'm glad someone is happy with Clear... my connection through them sucks and the company as a whole can just go gently caress itself.
