He thinks it is about power and control, which I doubt. I think that the wealth disparity in this country certainly has roots in the wealthy working to protect and amplify their wealth, but I'm much less convinced that they give two shits about controlling other people (they certainly desire to use other people to increase their wealth and certainly reach for power when they see it, but power over throngs of people they don't care about?).
Of course, that theory depends on them being dumb enough to think that class war is going to be net profitable for them while simultaneously being smart enough to successfully wage it.
And the waiter/waitress usually doesn't keep all the tips, they tip out the rest of the people in the restaurant (the busboys, the kitchen, the bar, etc...).
It's not like it is a perfect market, many people lack information about the availability of the 0 priced downloads, and the downloads may have much higher estimated cost of risk than the cost of more traditional acquisition.
People don't attack the midiclorians because they think it is impossible, they attack them because it is stupid and unnecessary to the plot (the older Jedi could have just bought the boy, to the confusion of the younger one, and then later, while they watch him do something , the older Jedi explains that he has never before met an untrained child with such powers. Done.).
Whole episodes of Ghost Hunters probably cost less than some scenes in other shows. It doesn't have to catch nearly as many viewers as a more expensive show.
There's no one even fighting that battle (there are legions saying that Google and Mozilla and Opera should fight the battle...). I'm pretty sure Google dropped h.264 from Chrome to save some money (because there isn't and won't be anyone exclusively using html5 video+h.264), not to push some WebM agenda.
Hardware devices will continue to ship with h.264 support (it's really cheap even for a $40 device), but I'm not surprised that they aren't going to pay license fees for Chrome users.
But it doesn't do any file verification (which if may make up for by being faster than par2, if you are prepared to do what you speak of above, adding in some hashing doesn't seem like it would be a big deal).
html4 is still a standard. Major browsers are likely to support it for at least 20 more years, if not forever (especially in the sense that there is very little in the html5 working draft that breaks html4).
It's not like 'supports html4 and css2 and xhtml' has ever actually been particularly true, web developers already have to choose which features to use and which ones not to use.
There are probably routes where limiting delivery to 1 day a week would be more expensive than multiple day delivery. The idea should be to free up the post office to increase their operating efficiency, not to make up new arbitrary rules for them to follow.
It doesn't make all that much sense anyway for a submarine with a nuclear reactor, if you have plenty of electricity available you can just do electrolysis.
Yeah, I got that. A counterpoint to the implied unfairness is that the poor do actually have something, they just happen to need to use it up.
That doesn't mean I think that wealth distribution in the U.S. is anywhere near fair or that the economic system makes total sense, it just means I don't feel real bad for every single person with no wealth, I've seen enough of them making the choice to consume frivolities now rather than have savings later.
One's a formerly drunk Texan. The other is a formerly high Hawaiian with slightly darker skin.
Is a difference is it not?
Of course you meant policy, but if you really think they are exactly the same there, I don't see much point in trying to convince you otherwise (I do see the parallels in an aggressive strategy in the middle east and in not taking a hilarious hard line with big business though).
Slashdot Mirror
He is positing that George Washington established the tyranny of wealth that you are complaining about above.

It could be as simple as them not validating that the system improves the reaction times of inebriated drivers.
4 decent tables all the time for 8 hours?

Redirecting planes into buildings stopped working almost 10 years ago.

It depends on there being some authentication between your browser and the website being checked; for gmail, that's a cookie...
So go ahead and make the case for cookies that expire 10 years (or more) in the future.
It isn't a weird myth, advertisers are willing to pay more when they get analysis of who saw their ad.
Nah, investors know that AOL breaks down their revenues in their annual report, so they know that the article is wrong.

If it doesn't, zfec should:

Are you sure you aren't misusing a wall?
H.264 has a nearly 100% chance of no longer being patent encumbered sometime in the next 20 years or so.
Sure, that depends on the government not doing anything silly to patent terms, but they have a decent history of that.
You could just generate par2 files over convenient subsets of the data. Or maybe 'just' generate them.

Yeah, I didn't mean to imply that I was having an original thought, I was relaying an observation.
