Apple pays $10 to get a music maker made in a factory Dell pays $10 to get a music maker made in the same factory every one else pays $10 to get a music maker made in the same factory
The factory that makes the music maker has people die. Apple says we'll pay you $11, and the extra $1 goes to the workers Dell still pays $10 to get a music maker made in the same factory every one else still pays $10 to get a music maker made in the same factory
and somehow, Apple is the bad guy? Did it hurt when your mother dropped you on your head?
huh?! He bought pixar on a whim, and basically was the money tree for it. You should read up on pixar's early years. After NeXT failed, Jobs showed up regularly at Pixar, to "manage" it. The team then started holding offsite weekly meetings to avoid his "management".
how so? that search plainly shows he has interesting connections to various racists subgroups. original article said he was honest and principled politician. If your definition of honest and principled includes racists, then, I guess I was wrong. but he could be an honest and principled racist I guess.
akamai is a separate business. the topic of discussion is whether the owner of a public utility can portion and dole out according to their whims and wishes.
and yes, it's a damned public utility. they claim so everytime - that's how they get out of copyright infringement cases, by being the "phone company".
because most people are morons, and think having seen a supply/demand graph once, they can comment on economics. The OP apparently does not even understand there is no such thing as "burning" for pressed CDs, nor do you do any validation, etc, beyond the normal QA. But what do you expect from the random peanut gallery eh?
actually, it was a court clerk, no the supreme court that said so. they just found it convenient to allow that to stand. someone should challenge this before the supreme court.
WTF is wrong with you people?! Apple's iOS and OSX *CAME FROM THE SAME FUCKING SOURCE*
Additionally, Apple has been Open Sourcing various components, and using Open Source components as those become available. Things like dtrace, etc. Darwin is open source. The kernel itself is open source. Grand Central is open source. Safari/WebKit came from KDE and they made so many improvements to it that KDE *TOOK APPLE'S VERSION IN AND REPLACED THEIR OWN WITH WEBKIT* All the smartphones except for Winblows use a version of webkit.
uh, no, I distinctly remember judgements that Muhammad passed that had two separate parts - one for muslims, and one for non-muslims, and his reason was that some of the religious parts of the shariah law does not apply to non-muslims (things like not fasting, eating pork, etc).
I like how people who have no idea how technology works blames the wrong people. How the hell is Mozilla/Firefox supposed to protect against Microsoft who owns the Operating System they run on? Whatever mechanisms Mozilla put in place, Microsoft can bypass, because, well, they own the Operating System!
Remember, Microsoft *bypassed* the standard Firefox mechanism in the first place!
What kind of moron are you? When did OP say anything about the impossibility of writing insecure code in other languages? What he said was that if the expectation is that most PHP code is insecure, then you will have met the expectation.
Which part of that is wrong?
Stop defending insecure code. You make the assertion yourself with your statement of low bar to entry.
mucking foron - did you see what microsoft did to its last attempt at putting out open source stuff? just killed it not too long ago. so... sure, yeah, whatever.
Of course not. But there sure was a pretty viable *PERSONAL COMPUTER* industry. Apple and Commodore owned the PERSONAL COMPUTER industry, and golly, it was even big enough for a couple of geeks in a garage to start a company, and then go public.
Why do people keep thinking Microsoft is the only thing in this world?!
Errr, NTFS is just VMS fs re-implemented. Back when nt first came out, friends went to the disk level to look at things, and reported back that it looked almost exactly like what VMS had...
You do realize the guy who wrote NT, Dave Cutler, was the head programmer for DEC on VMS right?

what the f*ck is wrong with your brain?

for fun and profit, just do a search for ron paul and kkk.
please! there's only so many bugati veyrons and multi-million dollar homes you can buy with $11mil cash and $40mil stock. Think of the children!

one of these days, I'll be arsed to go look up my original acct id, something in the 2000 range, iirc.
Obviously 2003 is earlier than 2001.
And Ballmer was all *HARDCORE* about *SQUIRTING* previously... and what happened to all that squirting brown stuff?

do you even understand why we have world hunger? It's not because there's not enough food, but that the rich does not want the poor to have it.
just wanted to check - you do realize you can buy DRM free music from itunes store, right?
and - just to be clear, who did you think forced apple to implement drm on music, RIAA, or Apple itself?

I am not sure which language I would prefer more, brainfuck, or APL.

Some people shouldn't be given modpoints. What kind of moron marks such an obvious joke flamebait?!
