It was inevitable, really. The network execs can count (contrary to popular belief, they're actually very good at that, at least when it comes to counting money) and they can count that there are a lot more mundanes than there are of us. Also, they're a more valuable target audience (translation: they're more likely to buy what the commercials tell them to). Moving the channel (and all the other channels) to target them becomes just a matter of time.
So it runs like a bat out of hell when you massage it correctly. Good for you. Know what we call a processor that nobody can write a decent software stack for? A shitty processor.
Not seeing much from the fundies on this yet--in fact, it seems like the whole thing is producing unrest against the Iranian regime along with all the others. Not impossible for a religious dictatorship to come out of nowhere in any of these places, though, I'll admit.
All governments reflect the will of the majority, except in the very short term.
True, of course. But the will of the majority can be bent, by propaganda. It can be coerced, by intimidation. A dictator cannot rule without the consent of the great majority of his people. That doesn't mean he's limited to nice means in getting it.
I'm inclined to agree with you about the ending, although I think it can be argued either way. Removing "Tales of the Black Freighter", on the other hand, was the right decision. There just wasn't *room* for it. Yeah, it was neat, and yeah, it added a whole 'nother layer to the symbolism. But the movie was already two hours, forty-two minutes as shown in the theatres (with longer cuts on the DVD releases--up to three and half hours!). Adding in the Tales would've made the thing unwatchable in one sitting.
"Of course, I wasn't the one who was constantly rebuilding hosts in the internal network because black hats kept breaking in through compromised iPhones, so for me, it was a total win."
Shoot, you can go further back than that. How about "Death Race", where you ran down pedestrians. Which then turned into litte cross-shaped tombstones that you could wind up caught up on if you weren't careful. I remember playing that game, too.
Apple has no significant enterprise division, and Sun was almost 100% enterprise.
And that's why they didn't buy Sun. Apple has no significant enterprise division because Apple doesn't *want* a significant enterprise division. They had, and have, about as much interest in owning Sun as they do in owning the Bolshoi Ballet (after all, they have no significant ballet division, either).
I don't like it, but SunSolve was clunkier, buggier and worse. Having your links borked, especially your documentation links, is most definitely not fun, though.
Anybody who's been paying any attention to this already knows that the app was *never* meant to replace a priest; it was always meant as an aid to the traditional confessional. The Vatican is simply repeating this for the tl;dr folks who skipped over that part.
It seems like the "tiny gasoline engine" they used must have been a cousin to old Cox glow-plug engines that I used to fly on model airplanes. Those things howled like banshees.
if we *really* needed to keep someone alive for what they had in their brains, we could, even if they were mostly missing a body.
Not in evidence. The fact that the dog and the body were animate in no way demonstrates that if you did it with a human they'd be in any fashion rational or coherent.

And that's what we have. The only problem is that *we're* not the audience...

Personal pan pizza, I'm betting.
Yes, I miss the days of journalists, like William Randolph Hearst, who didn't have any agenda.

Not much. How much stamina does it take to survive the cold even when you have the blankets? More than some old people have.
As opposed to what? Solid magma is more commonly called "rock".
...pondering what I'm pondering, BitTorrent?
Seems like they need to rename the language COSOL...
Wrong.

...but why would I need software for Beats Per Minute?

Netgear? I bought a new Netgear router a few months ago; one of their newer models. No IPv6 support whatsoever.
