What are you opposed to, big budgets, publishing, teams of people working on things? Cloying corporate culture restricts creativity and focuses on profitability/reliable income streams, but there's no reason why small or medium companies need to focus on profit as a primary goal, unless they're publicly traded.
Not as blind as a world without accountability. It's always the same story, whole organisations mess up or turn on lone individuals, then when the smoke clears there's mysteriously nobody to blame. That manager moved to another department, this clerk is not available for comment. Bring the beaurocrats to heel, I say.
Lets have every name, every detail, all of it. Beaurocrats like to hide behind their organisations, which enables every manner of abuse. Haul these insects out into the light, overturn the rocks. A man is dead, there must be accountability. They need to learn that they are personally responsible for their own decisions.
You said it, they may as well be using taint configuration because they can stick their biometrics up their bottoms. Guess who will be the proud owners of a database of the fingerprints of most of the adult population in many countries if this is pushed ahead? The US government. I'm sure they are absolutely delighted with the surplus of freely given information already supplied by facebook and twitter, getting everyone's mugshot and prints is the final finishing touch.

This. I don't think the story is accurate but sleep deprivation is used as a literal form of torture for good reason, and can have enormous effects on your health, memory, in a wide variety of areas. It's no laughing matter, no matter how much fun the cool kids are having. Wikipedia says:
Generally, sleep deprivation may result in:[5][6]
aching muscles[7]
confusion, memory lapses or loss[6][8]
depression[8]
hallucinations[8]
hand tremors[9]
headaches
malaise
sensitivity to cold
periorbital puffiness, commonly known as "bags under eyes" or eye bags
increased blood pressure[10][11]
increased stress hormone levels[11]
increased risk of diabetes[11]
increased risk of fibromyalgia[12]
irritability[5]
nystagmus (rapid involuntary rhythmic eye movement)[13]
obesity[11]
temper tantrums in children[5]
yawning[5]
symptoms similar to:
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)[5]
Psychosis[14]
What a horror that would be, the new sound of terror is a high pitched mosquito-like whine. I'm fairly sure there are rules against targeting civilians in war though, and this would go right over the line.
It's a collection of robot arms with a plastic tablecloth on the top, that's all. At least the other one made claims of running itself on hydrogen for what that was worth, probably not much since you'd be better off using the energy it took to seperate the hydrogen to actually power the thing.
Heh, if true that is funny. I have some doubts as to the veracity of the story though, if a SWAT team wants in, in it is going to get. Unless the Dutch have them walking the beat or something and this is the SWAT equivalent of checking the doorhandles.
Actually I think she knew exactly what would happen, the same thing as always, people rape threatning her and calling her all kind of things
I don't know, at this point I'd be looking for serious citations, police reports, the works from any of these people on claims of threats. Their word just doesn't seem in any way trustworthy.
Newspapers and other publications were traditionally politically biased, mostly printed by someone to put their own slant on things. Journalism is historically gonzo, it's only recently that this fair and impartial notion has arisen. I guess people like to read things that agree with their ideas.
Doesn't matter how much call there is for it, it's there to be done because it rocks!;-) I love poking at electronic innards, virtual or otherwise. Over the summer I'm getting back into this stuff, I've forgotten most of it but it's like riding a bicycle, he says in a blaze of enthusiasm.

I don't know if I'm talking in Welsh or summoning Cthulhu.

If Star Trek has taught us anything, it's that green skinned alien women also have tits.
Good, let's have their names and we'll reward them.

Kids need sleep as much as anyone, they just usually aren't doing anything important enough with their lives yet to miss it. Zing!

I'm waiting for the Wayland/Yutani fork myself.

Mix this up with the decentralised P2P browsers thing and I present to you, ladies and gentlemen, the future!
I can't see anywhere to stick the meter though.
I knew it.
Summaries: I like them. Even such as we get around here.
Heh, if true that is funny. I have some doubts as to the veracity of the story though, if a SWAT team wants in, in it is going to get. Unless the Dutch have them walking the beat or something and this is the SWAT equivalent of checking the doorhandles.
Competition, the finest part of capitalism.
Did they ever get the man pages working on that?
No, no, that is brilliant. They had me at the Vulcan's bin bag hair.

Intimidating? That sounds like a blast!
Correct. As long as there is online anonymity, all the agreements in the world mean nothing. With that said, long live online anonymity.
Or even better, kickstart it and front load your profits. After that just live with piracy.
