That's very conflated, history is very important, because you couple that with the mere fact that life still exists, clearly those temperature variations weren't cataclysmic then (the cold ones were very damaging), so why should they be now?
I struggle to see how you would use it in anything though, not that i should know or anything.
I'm still interested, mainly to see what other people can come up with, I would probably need a demonstration of what they might plan on doing with the tech rather than just announce that it's coming.
The PS3 games which use a full DL Blu-Ray, they don't compress the content, this helps load times, at the expense of space, but since they have heaps of space, it's no problem.
Notice how the really large games like god of war 3 and final fantasy 13 don't have installs, it's because they don't need to, the content is already uncompressed.
I wouldn't say it's moot, yes the consoles have USB, but do they really support keyboard and mouse, no they don't, and that's because there are literally only a handful of games which support kb+mouse for actual gaming.
Whereas in pc land, a lot of games now support a usb control pad, i've played a couple, mostly preferring kb+mouse, but at least the option to choose is there, not so much with consoles.
I suppose if they allowed online play with kb+mouse, most gamers on consoles would rage incredibly, which brings me to my next point about CS:GO, with cross platform play, allowing kb+mouse for the ps3, but also move and normal controller, but i'm pretty sure, there will be a lot whingeing and valve will eventually release an update to segregate the community through a filter to pick servers which don't allow the better input methods.
I find this amusing, because that michael crichton story "rising sun" has sean connery say about the japanese, that they don't scapegoat when they have problems, they just sort them out and then don't worry about it. Sucks to be sony, it's quite dishonouring that they stoop to this level. Whilst the bowing was somewhat a mea culpa, this in a way takes it all back, back to evil empire sony.
In any case, i don't think anonymous as a collective did it, i think it's one of two options, either someone from anonymous seized the opportunity and decided to keep on going after anon officially broke off, or other hackers, which is very highly likely, since it was a fairly public ddos, kept an eye out, and saw the potential, when members started pointing out details of the problems with sony's network.
What is it with subscriptions, everyone wants to sell you a contract for a service. It's like as if they have a dire fear of actually selling you a tangible product.
Besides, my internet isn't reliable enough to instantly stream low res youtube.
I don't think the RIAA represents all that many classical producers. While this is a very interesting project, and quite a nice thing, i'm not entirely it's a brilliant thing.
One thing for sure is that when it comes to orchestras, nothing beats being in the hall, you just don't get the dynamic contrast and feeling carried over as well as a live performance, also the audience will generally be quiet too, so everyone can enjoy it (if the music is good to begin with).
But as far as the RIAA is concerned, i think they won't care too much, they might worry a bit if pop music was starting to adopt a public domain model, similar to open source, actually, i think that is what the riaa has been fearing out of the internet all along.
I don't think we are seeing too many pop stars hit it big at the moment, and i think this is kind of attributable to the internet, because say with just about anyone i talk to, they tend to listen to music which the pop industry generally won't want to touch, be it electronic music, hard rock, or even folk music.
I think it just means that in reality, science hasn't got all the right answers, all of the time, and science should be treated, as it was always intended, with a grain of salt.
basically, when the gumberment did the free trade aggreement with the USA, we got worse copyright laws foisted onto us.
Before that, the law basically was around the idea that is was illegal to break copyright, so as long as you didn't make any infringing copies, you could do whatever you wanted, ie, run cracks on your own games, install modchips for homebrew etc but you still weren't technically allowed to make a copy.
Now with this technological protection measures or devices whatever, the line is blurred, some court cases have gone a bit weird, most have settled, nothing has been tested in court yet, so this will probably settle it for once and for all, if they go all the way. Generally, even though the government can be nutters, the application of law is in the hands of the courts.

Can someone link me to evidence that global warming is bad for the earth as a whole?

I didn't realise sophism was now a scientific process!
Maybe they found weapons of mass destruction on mars!
