What big red switch? As someone with almost twice as many digits in my UID, I seriously need to ask, what kind of sorcery did you old lawnkeepers implement?
This is essentially the last word on the copyright dilemma at this time. It will occur with every digital item, times every downloader, forever until we get Non-Purchase methods of giving value back to the producers.
What you mean like directly donating to the artists of a product without going through the corporate execs who suck 90% of the profits away? Could that actually be done? Going up to a person and paying them? I think it's a bit farfetched to think us mortals could just pay artists/developers/actors/etc./sarcasm
But seriously. Not purchasing a product != Not paying money for it.
The music industry gives ~10% of the revenue to the artists, the rest goes to people who _DO NOT ACTUALLY ADD ANY ARTISTIC VALUE TO IT_ Why would it be moral, much less desirable to pay such leeches? We live in an age, where being an professional artist/developer etc. does not cost significantly more than doing said activity in free time. A keyboardist needs there instrument regardless of whether or not they have a CD on the shelves, and if they can compose music, they will. I for one create electronic music and yet.. noone pays me for it! How could this be? Someone doing something purely because they enjoy doing it? Blasphemy!
While I'm probably out of my depth here, surely in SC2 an AIs performance could be measured in some fashion. I don't know if theres such a concept as a score in SC2, but an evolutionary algorithm pitted against humans, with the aforementioned score as a health function may breed an ai algorithm which is almost ideal. Could the SC2 playing residents here shed some insight into this?
A very similiar resonance happens in almost everyone, albeit at different frequencies. That trembling spreads around me too, and I almost always want to see if it would happen again. Likewise, if my teeth collide, it doesn't hurt per se, it's just unpleasant, but I keep wanting to try again.
The FAQ states: Not yet.
Interestingly enough, it seems to be working through a virtualbox. I'm not a BOINC regular so I don't understand why this is. Anyone care to shed some light on this?
Why? Popular music uses the same four chords, in a 4/4 time sig at around 140BPM. Sure, it's dynamic range is next to non-existent, but considering the average listener, do you really think they will give a crap? I mean it's only music geeks that seem to, and the majority of music consumed by us/them are actually properly mixed. Look at Porcupine Tree's works for example.
Popular stuff usually aren't any good. And good stuff aren't really any good. The only thing worth fighting for IMO is stopping artists being forced to have obscene ammounts of compression against their will.
Considering however the ridiculously low costs of creating a semi descent album at home today, and the next to free distribution we have available, I'd say any artists having any integrity would just say "screw you guys, I'm going home."/rant
Well while the linked article doesn't say much, I'd say the camera would be quite a bit more high-def than "high-definition". Especially since the article claims near Google Earth quality. If so, all zooming and panning would be segments of the orignal video feed. I also suppose that there would be more than one camera running at once, so a large cluster of images would be available for this purpose.
I torrent, and my household moves ~500Gb a month. I live in central europe. And I have not only not been restricted, but offers have been made for stepping up a package for no additional cost. You would think the U.S. would fair better. For reference, dirt cheap landline phone, ~40TV Channels and 30/5 mbit line. I use one of the more expensive telcos, and spend less than 40 usd.

Considering http://thepiratebay.org/legal I don't think most US lawyers realize that there are other countries on the planet..

So - Android would clearly be the superior platform for development.

But if they do pay, they may go into security door construction called: "RAMUS"
Except almost all scene releases are flagged malware by virusscanners, so pirates are extremely desensitized to this.

While I see that it will be running BOINC, will it be one of the CUDA/OPENCL running variants?
We need pop artists on board.

the chances of kids today tripping safely are about as high as LulzSec pressing the hack button safely.
Does hamachi and other vpn solutions still work?
