Afaik Pidgin uses plugins, so if the blackbox file was compiled properly (i.e. of 64 bit with -fPIC) one could create a plugin that is loaded at run-time. Important is what you need to compile and link it, libpurple is LGPL, so no problem, but pidgin.h in pidgin-dev states its GPL, so if that's needed, then it can not be distributed.
Our license tells you what a netbook is. Our license says it’s got to have a super-small screen, which means it probably has a super-small keyboard, and it has to have a certain processor and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
This reminds me on my favourite piece of cmake code in ITK:
# On Visual Studio 8 MS deprecated C. This removes all 1.276E1265 security # warnings IF(MSVC) ADD_DEFINITIONS( -D_CRT_FAR_MAPPINGS_NO_DEPRECATE -D_CRT_IS_WCTYPE_NO_DEPRECATE -D_CRT_MANAGED_FP_NO_DEPRECATE -D_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE -D_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE -D_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE_GLOBALS -D_CRT_SETERRORMODE_BEEP_SLEEP_NO_DEPRECATE -D_CRT_TIME_FUNCTIONS_NO_DEPRECATE -D_CRT_VCCLRIT_NO_DEPRECATE -D_SCL_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE -D_SECURE_SCL=0 ) ENDIF(MSVC)
Well, I'll just checked it. with gcc-4.3 and -O2 ant the resulting assembler code for the C++ loop is nearly the same like the C code - the instructions just come in a different order.
Somehow I suspect that those calls in the "Benchmark" result from using a checked version of ths STL. With Visual C++ > 2005 you have to add quite some defines to eliminate these checks even in release mode.
Here, the church is fighting with teeth and claws to maintain their level of influence, but to me it seems that since Franco died it is declining steadily. For instance, Since 2005 Spain allows same-sex marriages and adoption of children.
But fast forward to today. Considering (a) the huge number of nukes available, and (b) the successful treaty organizations which ensure that an attack against almost any developing or developed nation would bring into play a nuclear-armed nation, there's only one reason that any nation would want to obtain nukes themselves: to use them, consequences be damned.
Could you please elaborate? because frankly I don't see your argument. Considering the way the situations with Iraq (no nukes) and Korea (apparently has nukes) where handles differently, I would guess every nation that found itself on the list of the so called "Axis of Evil" had a good reason to own nukes as a deterrent a.s.a.p.
Apart from that Iran has signed the NNPT, and the IAEA can do the necessary inspections.
I'm guessing you weren't alive in 1979 when the US Embassy in Iran was overrun and everybody inside taken hostage. For roughly 400 days they Iranians held those hostages. Why? Nobody remembers why, but they did it - and if nobody remembers why, it must not have been a very memorable reason (if any.)
The spiders have the size of a 50 pence piece, which means they are below 3cm large. I'd say they where using a standard micro CT scanner, depending on the protocol that gives you about these 3000 projections. The software to reconstruct 3D volume data from the projections usually comes with the scanner, and going from volume data to a real model has been done for ages. Of course you can write your own reconstruction software, but that's just one amongst many.
Actually having a fossil that old to begin with, well that's another story.
Many ethnic cleansings started or were primarily performed by "irregular" government-backed forces (East Timur, Darfur, and the former Yugoslavia are some of the most recent).
Some might already call this a war - just like gang-wars are not executed by regular troops, but this would probably be hair splitting. Anyway, I can agree with the notion of genocide being worse then war, i'd probably put it under the umbrella of "bad peace" where the suffering side can only win when they go to war to free themselves.
I disagree on both counts. Terrorism is an irregular attack, against civilians, with a political goal.
Then you're better then the UN because so far they couldn't agree on a proper definition.
Indeed - suppression to the point where the only way to survive is to try to liberate yourself by going to war against your suppressor. I can agree with that.
Hmm, actually, I can't remember any genocide that was not conducted in conjunction with some kind of war or war-like conflict, so it seems genocide is "just" something that makes a war even worse.
Unfortunately, there doesn't exist exist a generally accepted definition of what terrorism really is. More often that not one sides freedom fighter is the others sides terrorist. Nevertheless, considering how many people are killed every year by car drivers who are speeding or drive drunk in comparison to the number of casualties of terrorist attacks, I don't consider terrorism as something that's worse than a war. In addition, consider the number of innocent casualties of the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the number of innocent people killed thanks to the so called war on terror. The truth is, a war machine is way more effective at killing people, especially innocent ones.
Well, if you believe in hell and eternal torment that I guess for you that this is really the worst thing in existence. I don't believe in this kind of hell, and the hell we humans create ourselves here on earth is usually the result of war.
Individual suffering is always horrible, but the number of casualties of a war and the resulting horror and suffering as a whole most certainly will always be a lot larger then the wounds any serial killer can inflict in total.

Instead of uncommenting the old kernels, you should probably uninstall them if you don't want to use them anymore.

What if MS decides you can only install Windows on a list of approved brands?
Well, ... During the recent financial analyst day Steve Ballmer had this to say:

One might add that compared to most European languages English rules for pronunciation are not easy to grasp, to say the least: e.g., compare "creature/creation", "corpse/corps", "horse/worse", "head/heat".
Obviously they were talking about surface area, and the asteroid is shaped like here (start at timecode 1:14)

Well, Wikipedia "remembers".
Then again, when I'm already in Canada, why would I want to go to the US ;)
The copyright SPECIFICALLY limits rights.
But wen I sell the original DVD/CD, I don't copy anything, so why should copyright apply at all?
Lucky there's a war going on, so we can test our new equipment. </sarcasm>
However, the applications that run on both run much, much faster on the 64-bit machines.
Of course they will; the 64-bit machines are much newer.

Hu? I don't see any restrictions of what can be piped around in a gnome-terminal (well, actually its bash or tcsh that's used to pipe things around. )
Some countries even see drawn pictures as child pornography, if they feature graphics that someone could interpret as maybe being children.
As Germany does ...

Sorry, but most games can already be played on different platforms - it's called game consoles. This is not the area where MS has a monopoly.
Such as?
