Why would you call someone dumb who doesn't happen to live in one of those "some states"? There are 50 separate and quite different tax codes in the US. I certainly don't know all of them. I know two fairly well. That's it. Do you know the tax codes of all 50 states?
If the television industry moves to a larger resolution as the norm, then the computer monitor industry will have reasonably priced monitors at that resolution. Not before.
Why do you keep an XP partition for games and Steam? I use windows 7 and it works fine. It doesn't creak at all. I'm definitely not pro-windows, but there is no reason to keep XP around anymore, just upgrade to 7.
I wouldn't mind the idea of a steam compatible requirement. Starting with one distro is also a good idea. The platform is open, you can take everything from Ubuntu and recreate that environment in Arch or Slackware. I don't see a problem at all. All I see are naysayers.
The question you are asking me is what books have impacted my life. There are many books that I have not read that have had a very large impact on my life. Many of these books convince people to act like nuts because they believe everything that's printed in these books.
Not just new middlemen, they are more fair middlemen. Unfortunately, except for within a city, I don't think there can be an option of "no middlemen." There will always be some type of content distribution, and the artists themselves are writing music not doing content distribution.
Mobile companies and networks in the US are out to milk as much money as possible from their customers. Creating a good product or network is the least of their concerns.
It's open source software. Bugs can be squashed, security holes can be closed. Over time with enough effort the project can mature. If it doesn't there will be forks that use parts of it that are good and grow from there. That's the way the community and projects work.
I have a couple of solutions that might work for your legacy sites that tell you that firefox doesn't work, or other browsers don't work. First off, change your User Agent string to one that matches a version of Internet Explorer. You can find a fairly comprehensive list of User Agent strings at this website. A second option is to install VirtualBox on your main workstation and install XP inside a VM. This is a better idea than having a dedicated XP install on bare metal because you can repurpose the old machine or get rid of it completely, and once the XP instance is setup the way that you want it, you can take a snapshot of it to restore to after each use. That way you never have to worry if it gets infected after visiting some site or other. You just revert to the clean snapshot and move on.
Because vbox and other FOSS virtualization software are so mature now, there is really no reason to keep dedicated boxes for legacy crap anymore.
Also, it occurred to me, what road were you taking between Riga and Piter that required such a passport check? The now E77 through Misso then northeast through Pskov?
Anyway, speaking of the road between Latvia and Piter: "he lived the way he sang". Tsoi zhiv!
Sorry, but which restricted town are you speaking of in that region? Sosnovy Bor? Kronshtadt? There weren't constant checks in those places. Of course if you looked out of place, you would be checked, but it wasn't like the place was in lock-down 24 hours a day.
Even now, Sosnovy Bor is closed, but I have never been checked, not even once while visiting people there.
Holy shit, man! You can get a nice apartment by yourself in Northern Virginia and have just as much local resources for starting a tech company as California. The internet is here, not there...
Anyone who claims that CarrierIQ was actually the first malware in the app store for iOS is totally wrong. It was pre-installed by Apple on every phone. It was never available from the app store, so the headline is absolutely correct.
Another race would be you have changed ISPs, and you have to change the IP addresses in Microsoft's DNS manager for hundreds of domains and subdomains. I on the other hand use BIND on FreeBSD and with a well crafted one liner with sed and awk I am now on my way to the bar across the street while you're still pointing, clicking, typing, pointing, clicking, typing.
This article has to be one of the best trolls to have even been done here on Slashdot. Not only did it get the editors to put it on the front page, but it also has most everyone actually taking it seriously.

No, god definitely doesn't control baseball. If he did, there's no way Drew Storen would have walked Yadier Molina in Game 5 of the NLDS.
You purchased the ebooks, correct? You are not pirating the ebooks, correct? Then rip the DRM, delete your windows partition, and move on.

I would use adjectives like ludicrous and plaid.
Oh, really? I can make it say "boobies" if you turn it upside down!
I thought bugs were a requirement for entry, the more spectacular, the better.

Hmmm.... Guilty conscience much?

That's totally what happened when I lost my virginity.
