is who is going to enforce that right? It's a proposal in french parliament, so we could guess.
The obligatory warnings and disclaimers are printed across all kinds of products like cigarettes and electrical appliances in the US, why should ads be exempt?
Small systems with limited hardware as in
more than 88% of the current top 500? http://www.top500.org/stats/list/33/osfam Perhaps you should consider moving from your planet to the real world.
The 11 million lines include all the hardware support that other OS's have outsourced to the hardware manufacturers.
The 'bloat' is mainly a problem at the kernel developers side as they need to test everything; I estimate that on a standard distribution no more than 5% of those drivers are actually ever loaded and the rest exist only as files on your harddisk.
What that business might be, I do not personally know How is it possible to create content, and print millions of copies and ship them for free ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_daily_newspaper ), but not keep a server with the same content available?
wow, if only we had some way of controlling what our computer does and what software runs on it. Perhaps you shouldn't have bought that cheap read-only harddisk.
No that's just correct phrasing of the conclusions. The fact that it hasn't been shown is not equivalent to the conclusion that it doesn't do something. Many study results have a known error margin allowing, for instance, only to say things like "based on this experiment we're 95% certain that X doesn't do Y"...
I guess the presumption of innocence only applies to criminals, members of parliament, bankers and quacks. Not to really innocent people because they have no need for it.
I imagine it can't be as simple as just recompiling
It is exactly that simple. If you don't get trapped by a particular vendor to use a deliberately unportable C dialect.
Dawkins shows how a random process that is blind for any final goal still manages to optimize its product. Knuth says a random process that is blind with respect to the goal can optimize the results. Both are obviously talking about evolution in different settings. You are probably confused by the brainwashing you received in your youth, but you are free to go educate yourself, or, as you so astutely put it, 'shut up'.
Odds are Linux is the only system where it still works, like my old canoscan device: No Mac OS > 10.3 no windows > XP. But perfectly ok with the generic twain stuff...
After having travelled the US and the EU extensively I can now inform you that the US bureaucracy wins hands down.
The amount of forms and signatures needed to conduct even the simplest actions is totally hallucinogenic.
Case in point: I recently flew in to Brussels, and we had a group of American tourists on board who needed to be reassured be the airline staff that they didn't need to sign any forms, or deposit any money or fingerprints to be allowed to enter the country...
You don't need credit to travel.
Travelers checks -> Will be replaced (normally within 24 hours) after theft or loss.
Non-third world banking system -> Log in to your bank account and transfer to local office.
About health insurance: Are there countries where you are not insured, but where you still can get card with enough credit to pay for an operation?
Just saying, travelers are not a problem for the US tax payer, but debts from credit cards sure can be.
I really didn't see anything 'revolutionary' about those videos other than it did live HDR pictures. Woohoo. I have Photoshop. I'm sure GIMP can do it, etc.
You missed the detail that those programs are running real-time inside the camera, building panorama's and correcting dynamic range and removing noise, while taking the picture?
I love your reasoning. Let's also blame all crimes on the police while we're at it.
After all, if there was no law enforcement there would be no point in having laws, so no way to commit a crime.
Right?

You mean removing the antlers?
We knew that.

No, if your entire nation is in an official constant state of fear, the terrorists have achieved their stated objective.
new flies are examining the dead fly carcasses
And not the pizza's?
Quite interesting.
You might get sued for failing to check password security as well. Better hide under your desk and do nothing.

Aka profiling.
At what age do you suggest the law should no longer apply?

Unless he's a finger puppet.
You are aware that this is project is sponsored by the TV companies and commercial partners, not by the 'national science foundation'?.
Task parallellism libraries are essentially fancy wrappers around fork-and-exec. That is really old tech, and needs no rewrite.

You hire people for your mom's basement?
I think North Korea already knows what the US wants.
