To me, it looks like Windows Media Center. For apps.
You've got this fullscreen interface, that might be useful on some devices (tablets, TVs...), but the traditional interface remains more usable for desktop use.
Indeed.
At least, it should have said that Qt is deprecated for mobile development.
But Qt started as a desktop toolkit, and it's still very good at it.
A proprietary software developer may take BSD licensed software and use it as the basis for a project of their own without sharing code in return. The users of his software have less liberty to the software's use.
How do the users have less liberty on the original software? Source code for the original software is still available, only the modifications are proprietary.
The GPL basically forces other developers (those who create derivative works) to license their code under a license you choose...
the same reasons why the rest of the European countries tolerate bandwidth caps
I don't know about other countries, but here in France, there are no bandwith caps, and (usually) no traffic shaping.
Then again, there is much more competition than in the US as there are at least 5 ADSL providers, and 1 cable provider.
It may not be convenient, but it is certainly possible:
Just click on the checkbox that says "regular expressions", you can then search for newlines using the dollar character, and replace whatever you want by a newline with '\n' .
Nokia Oyj announced that in connection with the need to reduce the operating costs as well as costs for research and development, it plans to reduce personnel as soon as possible.
60% taxes, where? I would say, that the most taxing countries (France for instance), get at most 50%.
It depends what you consider as a tax: here in France, more than 50% of the money your employer puts in your salary goes to the government. Then you have to pay your taxes: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fichier:Coin_fiscal_OCDE.png. There is also a 33% tax on profit the companies make, and a 19.6% VAT on everything you buy. So, actually, much more than 50% of the money goes to the government at some point.
But I agree with you that quality of life is more important than money.
Since the 19th century, the number of pirates (as in, maritime piracy) kept decreasing. The global temperature kept increasing. Therefore, according to the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, the decrease in the number of pirates causes global warming.
(+ Somalia has the highest number of Pirates AND the lowest Carbon emissions.)

Pardon my ignorance, but where's the option to enable the status bar in Chrome?
After reading the title, I thought it was referring to some new feature to be included in Firefox...

I think this is still a good idea. http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/10/10/06/1522206/Why-Are-We-Losing-Vertical-Pixels
For example, a few years ago, mid-end 15' laptops screens had 1280x800 pixels, now they're all 1366x768, so saving vertical pixels makes sense.
Wait, if the laserdiscs were sub DVD quality, then how did they make the DVDs?
IT'S A TARP!
