Have you forgetten about two little things called "Wind" and "Bees"? Genetically altered grain's pollen will spread.
Theres a story of a guy and his father who for years grow his own canola from seed they had been breeding. Then a seed producer, Monsanto, came in with a crop of these genetically altered canola next to his field. The cross pollination destroyed his crop in 2 years. The first year produced the defunct seeds. The next year the seed did not germinate.
Imagine if few dozen farmer planted altered grain near seed field. Within a few years our entire agricultural system would be wiped out except for a few select seed producers.
I mainly use Corel Paint Shop Pro and Xara Xtreme Pro. Corel Paint Shop Pro - Only a step behind Photoshop and a quarter of the price. Xara Xtreme Pro - Does everything Illustrator and Pagemaker does, only a lot easier to use.
For basic page layout Word is actually a decent program. It does a lot more the Publisher (IMHO) and comes really cheap for most students. For generating PDF's I use PrimoPDF. It works great and is free. I do keep an old version of Illustrator around simply because there are weird formatting issues from one version Illustrator to another, and Adobe format seem to render well between versions.
My fav so far has been the 6 button Sega Genesis controller. It was light, responsive, and the buttons well placed. Honestly I wish they would rebrand those old controller for some of the modern systems.
Simple: -Environmental regulation have gone out of control. The regs are to the point that no one has the $$$ to build any new plants - NIMBY - Not In My BackYard - Not one wants to live by a stinky, noisy refinery. I know, I've lived next to one my whole life; it isn't pleasant. -Each state has at least 50 cents of tax that gets directly added to the gas at the pump in addition the other taxes the companies have to pay (import tax, environmental and safety fees) - There been 3 major refinery fires within a finite number of functional refineries - Demand is higher in the summer then the winter but supply remains the same (see above) - The cost associated with switching from winter grade to summer grade
This sounds great but will it work with Windows applications? How proprietary is their system? Do they have a suitable set of signed ODBC drivers that will let my legacy applications talk to their system? Do they have.NET enabled database connectors so I can dump it into my project? How well has their DB been tested again chatty network environments like a mix of Windows and Mac's or weird routing? What are their DB management system like? Is it CLI or GUI?
I can claim my custom written DOS database system is 20X faster then anything on the market(which it is), but if it can't easily work in a Windows and/or Linux (which it can't) then it worthless as marketable product. (But you should see what it can do on a serial network.)
When this story was on Digg last week I said the same thing: I really hope he decided to open source both pieces of software. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
I love Sonic, but all the recent console games suffer from one big flaw: Too many options. Sonic was meant to be fun and fast. These recent RPG style Sonic games just plain suck. The control sucks. The puzzles are extremely easy or extremely hard. Don't get me started on some of those platforms that you have to hit just right or die and lose the *entire* game. If you want to make Sonic RPG, make Sonic RPG games and get rid of the timer/rating system.
If you want to keep the original fun of Sonic then put the 3d look on rails. It doesn't have to be completely limited like Panzer Dragoon. But, your games need limits. If a fanboy bitchs that I can't go to the top of some mountain then let him. He can go play something Sacred and be happy. Everyone else will enjoy your Sonic game and sales will increase.
Sonic Rush is it guys. Its 3d and 2d, polished, on rails, and fun! If you don't believe me about Sonic Rush look at New Super Mario Bros. 3d look, a nice mix of 2d and 3d play, again lots of fun.
OpenWeasel fills a niche that isn't being address in some developers'mind. If they have any sucess they can back port the cool new features into Firefox. Otherwise a better product will come out we'll flock to it. How many people still use Cello or Mosaic as a browser? Not many. They've moved on becuase some one else moved onto to build a better product.
Sure, someone signs up for a free account. That person picks from a set of top level doamins that do not conflict with ICANN's system. They add thier DNS info to the domain. All the settings gointo a repository some place (either an XML files or a database record).
Individuals have a small DNS client running thier system that queries one of several servers. The query is cached locally so if it can't find a server the records still exists locally and it can continue to use the domain.
A set of modified DNS could be setup for ISP and people who don't run thier own client.
This will be different from New.NET in that the client will be a true DNS server and not a cleaver proxy. Also it would be free, add free, and open sourced. The ability to added new TLD's would also be democratic in that anyone with an account could suggest and vote on new TLD's.
Um well, there still out there. Really old stuff can run through emulators. You have newer free stuff like VB5 Control Creation Edition, and VB.NET Express. And then you have systems like Freebasic expanding on QuickBasic.
Basic is still out there; though I wish they still included QBasic with Windows.
Setup a copy of an Access ADP file on a everyone's machine. Have the ADP file point at a database on your SQL Server and your golden. To them they just using an Access database minus many of the limitations in Access.
If security is an issue, then make a custom ADP for each user with thier own user ID's.
During the American Civil War, government officials under President Abraham Lincoln eavesdropped on telegraph conversations. Wiretapping has also been carried out under most Presidents, usually with a lawful warrant since the Supreme Court ruled it constitutional in 1928. Domestic wiretapping under the Clinton administration led to the capture of Aldrich Ames, a former Soviet spy in 1994. Robert F. Kennedy monitored the activity of Martin Luther King Jr. by wiretapping in 1966.
AVG Free Edition - Use it, Love it. Our curch used the commercial version. avast! Home Edition - Had install problems. Many of my firends live by it. AntiVir Personal Edition - Ran good, but I have had problems with random freezes when used on a system with an accounting package writen in VB 6 that used SQLBase. Not sure which cause which. clamAV for windows - Haven't used it. clamwin - Haven't used it.
We know that we exist in multi-dimensional universe. Not like monster from a parallel dimension, but rather dimensions such as width, length, height, and time. Is it possible that they accidentally skewed the photon of light slightly off the four dimensions we can perceive and went back on the time axis?
I just want to get this straight, who owns the IP on IE? Microsoft. Have they totally locked people out of switching to another search engine? Nope, just set a default.
The ONLY way a case could be made is if every other browser on the market made you pick a default search engine up install.

It isn't just Congress. Its all the states and cities that add fee's for every little road project.

I'll take my $100 million now for my study.

You make a solid argument for your positions.
Nope.
You've presented good alternatives.
Nope
Look, I agree with some of your sentiments, but at least back up what you say.
Yeap.

How about just creating an open TLD system?
I've been trying to make a similar service in my spare time.
Here's my mirror of the PDF:

I've been waiting for a Segway knockoff to appear so I could actually afford a similar device.
Cool, Microsoft just gave me a great VM to build my mailware in. Thanks!

This is sorta of a dupe. The book has been mentioned here before.
Just a thought, what about satelite?

No cell phone but the next upgrade is suppose to have SIP built in it. SO a WiFi hotspot will act as a cell phone.
