That would be the monster debt that Labour inherited from the previous Conservative government that presided over the three day week. Most serious historians blame the mess at the end of the 1970's on the Heaths government and the oil crisis.
I would also point out that the last Labour government presided over the longest period of sustained economic growth in the history of the United Kingdom, and even going back further to include the history of Great Britain. Now you might claim that was the legacy of the Major government, but I would point out most western economies had a recession when the dot com bubble burst, but the UK *DID NOT*. Not only that we where last of the western economies to enter the recession this time around. Further it looks like we are coming out of it in better shape than most of the rest of Europe. This is not even the worst defect, it was over 200% of GDP back in 1815, at the moment it is around the 65% mark.
Oh, and in case you think I am a Labour supporter, I am have been a life long member of the Liberal Democrats. It just really peaves me when people spout incorrect rubbish.
I don't know A pretty good start would be if *every* Microsoft site did browser detection, and anyone running IE6 was put in a redirect to a download for IE8. That would make it pretty clear that Microsoft considered it dead.
I remember 16 years ago on the Wine mailing list saying that spending time supporting Win16 was a total waste of time, and they need to concentrate on Win32 as by the time they supported either in a meaningfull wa, nobody would care about Win16 anymore.
Of course I was shouted down and flamed for my entirely accurate predicition. So of course huge amounts of time where wasted in the early days concentrating doing a really good Win16 emulation, that nobody could care less about for a decade now.
Depends the VP8 patent might predate the H.264 patent, but that assumes both sides have a patent on the same thing. What if they have patents on different things, that each other do? Then we are back to H.264 getting nailed to the ground. It is a *really* dangerous game to get into, more so for MPEG-LA than Google.
Note that if they have a patent on the same thing I would say that which was filed first is irrelevant because they both fail the test of "obvious to someone skilled in the arts"...
All it takes is for h.264 to infringe one patent that Goggle holds and they are stuffed. Google could then simply require for licensing their patent that any patents held by MPEG-LA against VP8 to not be enforced against any implementation of VP8.
If they don't agree then Google can file for an injunction to stop any infringing product from shipping, and collect large damages in the meantime.
The irony is that we do just that. Still it gives us 350 years of stable government. Though actually that is washing over the mass civil unrest that led to the Great Reform Act of 1832. Though this is much better going than the French who are on their fifth republic in just over 200 years.
How many CD's do you own!!! A 1TB drive which are dirt cheap these days will hold around 2000 average CD's with lossless compression. There are also 2TB drives on the market as well.
You are of course aware that here in England we burned orders of magnitudes more Catholics at the stake, than the inquisition ever had people done away with but that never comes up on the radar. Even to this day we have an annual celebratory burning of a Catholic effergy complete with fireworks and everything.
Given that the health outcomes of all soci-economic groups in the UK exceed even the top soci-ecomonic group in the USA, for all it's faults the NHS would by any objective measure be considered to do a reasonable job. Sure it could be better, but so could anything. Sure a private room with a TV might be nice but it does not actually improve my chances of getting better, which at the end of the day is what counts.
Actually the prevailing winds that blew the volvanic ash onto Europe where part of an extremelly unsual weather patern that has delivered the coldest winter to large parts of northern Europe for decades. The chances of the volcanic eruption coinciding with this unsual weather patern was *very* low.
Interesting, but you have missinterperated that study completely. Nowhere does it say that going 5-10mph faster than the posted speed limit is *not* the safest speed you can go. It says this is safer than going 10mph slower than the average speed on the road, but that is *not* the same.
Also it talks about the likelyhood of being involved in an accident. It nowhere does it discuss the likelyhood of death or serious injury which is again *not* the same thing as being involved in an accident.
Large savings! You are never going to get large savings on OS installs through dedup unless your idea of a large amount of storage is a handful of TB. Of the 300+TB of managed storage at work there is less than 6TB in our virtual infrastructure of that less than 500GB is OS installs.
Oh and buying that amount of storage in NetApp's would be hugely prohibative, and there is no point in saving IOPS because even our ancient DS4400 that is soon to be replaced gets no where near it's IOPS.

Tell that to SCO will you. They seem to have strung that one out for quite some time now.

My problem is that the extradition treaty that is being used to extradite him is one sided, as the USA have consistently refused to ratify their side.
The UK side needs an immediate change so that no extradition can take place until it becomes bilateral.
Not that surprising really as for decades the USA refused to extradite convicted terrorists that had fled to the USA from both the UK and France.
Except it is not, let me explain
(100+75)*0.43=75.25
So bang on the mark if you choose to believe that every pirated piece of software is a lost sale.
The speaker is obliged to vote for the status quo, and then only in the case of a tied vote.

That would be incorrect they are put forward by the three main parties.

You have heard of mrepo? Lets you make mirrors of redhat that you can then use to yum update your servers.
It is an ARM core and PowerVR core integrated on the same chip, aka it is ARM powered.
Rubbish, If you are a UK citizen you can vote.
Not been to the UK recently have you
Funny buy the statisics show that driving in Germany is more dangerous than driving in the UK, so that is simple rubbish.
Interesting, but you have missinterperated that study completely. Nowhere does it say that going 5-10mph faster than the posted speed limit is *not* the safest speed you can go. It says this is safer than going 10mph slower than the average speed on the road, but that is *not* the same.

Then it is time that US drivers learn't how to use roundabouts then, because they are vasty safer than junctions.
Or even just roundabouts.
A NetApp is not a SAN, it is a fancy dressed up NAS that you pay through the nose for.
