Melting point analysis is a fairly cheap and quick way to tell weather something is pure or not.
A recrystallization or two can bring purity up to 98%. It's not the 99.99% racemic pure that the FDA demands, but you're not going to find any difference in biological activity after you account that some manufacturing processes don't produce a chirally pure result and one of the racemes of meth is less active than the other.
Professional production with all the right tools is a good thing. Pharma is good, Big Pharma isn't, especially big politically connected pharma.
Of course. Without a price system there is no way to rationally allocate resources, and price systems require voluntary exchange. However government has no customers, only subjects, so a great number of systems not based on productivity or value will be used to make decisions about how to use resources.
But my point is the only excuse for being that dumb when it comes to computers is if your mind is impaired in some way.
HDTracks, sells me music in 96/24 FLAC, which I believe apple doesn't do. The selection is limited, but the music is great.
They say thier client only works with windows and mac, but in all actuality it runs just fine on Ubuntu.
Not neccessarily, the graphics industry is a hotbed of patent litigation waiting to happen. Open sourcing the complete driver would open up a lot of proof for attacks through the courts.
Opening up any of it to open source is a huge deal, and show the continuing shift in willingness of manufacturers to work with the linux foundation to provide the best possible experience on the hardware for any potential use.
ATI on just linux that's broken, it's the OpenGL support, wchich lags behind even in thier windows drivers.
330 crimes out of the tens of thousands commited vs. the proportion of people who have ever used facebook. By this metric used your local convencience store is little more than an opium den..
There isn't any sort of enterprise management tools for the linux desktop. There are several tools to lock down and standardize windows in an enterprise environment, but not windows.
All the popular ones like Netflix? Oh wait, no it doesn't and as I pointed out Janus has been here OVER five years and all FOSS "hackers" have to show for it is a giant FAIL next to their score. Next!
Take a HD video camera play the movie, and record. DRM broken. Tap into the monitor leads to record the output, DRM broken. Use a box that strips HDCP out of the HDMI stream and record. DRM broken. If you can see or hear it, you can copy it. And Windows media player DRM has been broken several times by recovering the keys. DRM is deffective from day zero and does not stop unliscenced copying.
and frankly the machine is probably illegal in the west due to the fact the Chinese incorporated x86 instructions into their ARM chip without a license.
No they didn't, They added instructions designed to improve the efficiency or a Quemu emulated x86 system
Apple refuses to license Fairplay and doesn't support Janus on WMA. Which means if they want Amazon and other music retailers to compete with Apple it HAS to work on an iPod and frankly the ONLY format that fit that bill was either MP3 or WAV, so it wasn't like they had a choice.
The only way to get consumers to accept DRM is by forming a cartel. If even one studio were to drop DRM, the rest would eventually follow suit.
Re:Kernel Level DRM. It doesn't matter, and that's not what the analoug hole is. The data has to be unencrypted somewhere for you to see it. Thus someone can take a HD camera, and point it at thier monitor and make copies of anything they can see. Also likewise the signal going into the LCD array is unencrypted, meaning you can tap those leads and record the data that way. And Janus like all other DRM schemes has bugs and weaknesses that can and will be exploited.
On lawsuits and P2P: Don't you get it, sharing istn't going away, there is no possible way technologicaly or legally to absolutely prevent some work from ending up in a torrent. Again back to the topic, DRM does not impede piracy only impedes use and fair use by your consumer. You fight piracy by providing a quality product at a fair price. You can also do it by providing and experience simply not availiable in the home, like putting your movie in a theater. People who want to support the arts will generally pay, and those that won't probably weren't weren't your customer in the first place. DRM tangibly reduces the quality and usability of your product making is less likely to successfully compete against the piracy that will happen unless you can encrypt data going into the optical nerve,
The owners authorization is what's relevant, not the government's (Government being nothing more than a group of men and women who do business at the barrel of a gun)
The heat of the core is generated from nuclear decay, not something likely to stop in the next 10,000 years. Plus only stuff relatively close to the surface might be worth tapping.
We are talking billions of dollars worth of content which we all know would end up on P2P 15 seconds after you dropped the DRM.
It already is, and will anyways regardless of any DRM both through the analogue hole and digital format. Even if people have to hack the protected pathway of windows or solder pickups into the unencrypted signal lines in their TV or monitor.. DRM just restricts fair use.
Not everything, but anything where 10-15 MB of data could bankrupt you. If you've set up the system properly, this should only be a small fraction of the machines you have.
Gold has very unique material properties, and used for dozens of industrial and medical cases. Once a use is found it is rarely if ever retired from that use.
To much to little, doesn't really mater if you're trading notes instead of the commodity. Because all prices do is establish ratios between thing in trade, it really doesn't fundamentally matter how rare the base unit is, price ratios will be established weather the cost of your next meal is denominated in millions of units or a fraction of a unit. The ratio of prices if denominated in a commodity currency will adjust to that the cost collecting the commodity and minting or storing it is about equal the amount of currency that could be made that way.
The question when you get an amount of committed that trades at ration with things you want to buy, is weather is is small enough to carry and large enough to handle. Gold tends to fall on the too small side in a modern economy. Silver is more apt, but the division that can be made electronically so gold is also viable.
So long as the lowest subdivision that can be handled is smaller than the amount most people care to haggle about, it doesn't matter how many nominal units of something that there are. To make this clear prices consist in money, but are not money. Price is just a given ratio in trade.
The advantage of commodity is not in amount, but in the discipline. Interest on savings and lending have to be matched in both rate and duration. With fiat money in the short run interest does need need to be matched in either rate or duration. This messes with the structure of production leading to booms and busts. (Bases on the works of Mises and Hayek in this area)

Don't try to keep more than a dozen pages running flash open at once.
You are 8 times more likely to be killed by a cop than a terrorist.
The solution is not to hire 8-year olds or 80-year olds for serious government work.
Network Adressable Storage. with redundancy.

Actaully the worse defect is the range is only 54 micrometers.

Also loongson is not an ARM chip, its an MIPS chip.
The FCC is just a subset of the them you mention.

I'm just trolling
Yes, Yes, you are.
Bad, Dodd is fairly likely to use his connections to get legislation strongly biased in favor of the MPAA.

The Yaun is not fixed to the dollar, it's fixed to a Basket of currencies included the dollar, the pound, and the euro.
PGP is great.

They also make ones where you can just remove the keyboard when you want a tablet, which saves on weight.
