Also, at least one of the affected models is an ultra book where the battery cannot be removed, good luck fixing that. (The Pin hole reset might do it but I'd be crossing everything).
In the sense that nobody uses it as a general term to mean a generic vacuum cleaner, whereas Hoover is used in that sense even if said machine happens to be made by Dyson.
It's the "obvious" bit that will get it kicked, the patent has to be innovative and "not obvious to one skilled in the art" and this blindingly is obvious.
Exactly, so it isn't "not obvious to a practitioner in the art" which is the requirement for patent grant. Should get tossed immediately when Google appeal.
They're going to sentence him to something like 700 years in the slammer anyway so he's never going to be in a position to repay any cost of anything they might try and recover from him. He'll die bankrupt in jail.
No only members of the administration group can do that. The first user happens to be a member of that group but subsequent ones have to be added to it explicitly.
Hence my comments about lack of experience. Any experienced skipper is well aware of the speed of commercial vessels, I sail in and out past the busiest container port in the UK on a regular basis. You keep a lookout and you stay clear of the shipping lanes apart from when it is absolutely essential to cross them and then you do so as fast as possible using the most direct route (usually 90 degrees to the channel) and only when it is visibly clear in both directions for as long as it will take you to cross. If that means that you start the engine on a sailing boat then that is what you do.
And had he hit you and had it gone to maritime court, you would likely have been found to be the guilty party. I am fully aware of the lack of maneuvering ability of modern ships. Power gives way to sail is a myth. It is your responsibility as master of your vessel to ensure that a collision does not occur, which it sounds like you managed through the use of pyrotechnics. Pure sail with no auxiliary engine has no business being in a busy shipping lane at night, and I speak as a certified yacht skipper so I do know what I'm talking about.
You will note that in my original post, I considered the likely conditions under which someone would take their boat out to scatter the ashes of their presumably well loved mother. 0200, fog, rain or other conditions that will reduce visibility are not likely to be high on your list of desirables for that task.
If he was in any way an experience Yacht master then there is no way that would happen. The only way you're ever going to get that type of collision is if the skipper in charge of the yacht is seriously inexperienced or there is zero visibility. Given that he was heading out to scatter his mother's ashes I doubt it was bad vis, that's the sort of trip you want to do in perfect conditions as you want it be a memorable experience.
First rule of the sea, it is your responsibility to avoid a collision, regardless if the other vessel should give way to you.
It's not so much bad driving or road rage (at least not directly) but it does appear that a significant proportion of BMW and Lexus drivers have the attitude of "I spent huge amounts of money on my car, therefore I own the road and YOU will get out of my way". This results in them driving like complete cocks and pissing people off.
Except that there is a huge difference between monitor LCDs and TV LCDs. Monitor LCDs typically have very tight viewing angles for maintaining privacy (they also have much greater pixel density). TV LCDs (at least reasonably new ones) typcially have 170+ degree viewing angles both horizontally and vertically because that's what you want for type of deployment.
I might give you 1 but 2 is complete crap. There are plenty of high level languages that are not interpreted. I don't think anyone will call Ada anything but high level.
The current government has proposed exactly that i.e. raising the minimum driving age to 21. Also there are not enough people in the 18-21 age group to affect things in the vote especially as only about 10% of that age group actually bothers to vote.
WTF were you doing using "apt-get dist-upgrade" anyway. If you'd read the release notes then you'd now that the recommended way of doing the upgrade was to use aptitude to prevent just those sorts of problems.
IBM has the ultimate end-game anyway. If the US gov blocks the sale then IBM is better off just closing the devision and laying off all the staff. Given that they have been losing a billion dollars a year on that division for a number of years.

No, they use about 100W if they use LED backlights.

Yes it does and update manager will refuse to install packages that apt can't verify the signatures for.

That pretty much sums it up.
But it only takes one of your customers to download the code and make it freely available.
At least be accurate please. The same article stated that an unpatched Windows system had a life expentancy measured in hours (less that 24 at that).
IBM has the ultimate end-game anyway. If the US gov blocks the sale then IBM is better off just closing the devision and laying off all the staff. Given that they have been losing a billion dollars a year on that division for a number of years.
Add some iRiver players and the Rio Karma for other OGG enabled portable players.
Vote with your wallet.
And that is how debian has done it since about 1998 (or whenever potato came out).
However you still need at least the basic driver installing before the reboot i.e. network, drive controller (scsi anyone?) etc.
The bug was patched 2 months ago so I guess that is the case :>
And Windows was only 8 years after Acorn did it properly in the first place with RiscOS 2.0.
