He decides how F1 is distributed. He's also one of the sports riches men. A coincidence, I think not.
He experimented with mutiple camera angles for home viewers. You could watch the race from the cameras on each car, from over head cameras. switching them when it suited you:-)
He also experimented with real time insertion of advertising hoardings. At the track they're just blue panels on TV they feature advertising, different for each target audience. Not bad being paid by two advertisers at the same time.
It's not for nothing he paid Minardi >1$m to stay in F1. The guy loves to make deals. By paying Minardi he has an ear on the teams meetings.
Ask Ron Dennis why he and Bernie don't get along. Something to do with Ferrari, why does Ferrari always get the lucky breaks, funny how the Williams tyres were found illegal just when they looked like they were going to win the championship
By the way in F1 $1m is called a Bernie and no one is really interested unless you're talking 10 Bernies.
Now why would he give away a product that generates some of the largest TV audiences world wide?
'A major nuclear disaster would be, well, like Chernobyl. Really bad in the surrounding area, Nothing at all a hundred miles away.'
Go read about Hiroshima and Nagasaki. That's what a bad nuclear accident will be like. Chernobyl fucked with most of western europe as we were down wind.
Chernobyl was caused by _engineers_ testing removal of cores, they took all the cores out and couldn't get them back in.
I'm a believer that nuclear tech will eventually power the world. But it will take a huge technical step forward from where we are now.
What will cause more fear is idiots like you under selling the risks.
Future Cab and it's possible today. If only I had the money for that size of flat screen. Still I'm building a bartop out of an old laptop:-) The screen has got to be vertical god damn it.
Nice to see your on board with the Bush & Rumsfeld program. No questions just blind obidience that's what the US needs. I do hope you're still waving the flag for the war in Iraq, they obviously had enough evidence. How about Iran/N. Korea building nukes, better take care of those trouble makers. STAND UP STARIGHT AND WAVE THAT FLAG.
I'm not so much worried about murder, it's a very low % crime. I am concerned about spineless cowards who want the goverment to protect them. Yes, I am talking about you. Who's life is it your's or the goverments? Who is responsible for it you or the goverment? Stop living in fear and start enjoying life.
The time is rapidly approaching in the US when each citrizen has to decide what is right and wrong, the legislatures and law makers have long since given up and gone south. The situation _VERY_ closely parallels Germany in the mid 30s. What's your defence going to be, I was only following orders?
Guess you never worked in goverment, most likely never in IT and prehaps you've never worked.
Everybody deals with vendors going bust, it may not be cheap but you deal with it. Migrate stuff to other platforms. Living with this goes with the job.
Microsofts methods are tolerated because there is no alternative for most businesses. This will change but then so will microsoft. Micorosoft will be tolerated for many,many years to come.
Your points a dependent on SCO running the pgm, think they're going to? They have no need to release the source code until court. Do you recall when the court date is?
Who owns SCO, how much money do they have? M$ paid a fair bit, think they might chip in again? Hell, I would in their position, just to keep the Linux IP/GPL legality issue in the press.
Why is SCO going to court, what could dissuade them from going to court? The SCO share price and revenue is up, why would they stop now?
This is going to drag on for years no matter what anybody else does, SCO needs it to continue for a s long as possible. As soon as they go to court they're finished and they know it.
So I refer the honerable gentleman to my first response, you sir are clueless.

Mclaren F1, I mean if Mr. Bean has one what a status symbol, umm On second thoughts just give me the car and we'll ignore who else owns one.
Chemistry is just practical physics.

Speak to Bernie.

Original An explanation?
Trying simulating with ANSI-74 COBOL.
Yep, and they're going to be top 5. Between you and them I wonder who has the best knowledge of how to build a cost efficient cluster?

US Gallon != British Gallon
Bollocks.
I drive a Dodge Ram 5.9 V8 306 is like 5.0 L Even in the US 5.0L is not a tiny engine.
The smallest mini had an 850cc. I'm sure the Geo Metro is sub 1litre as well.
Tiny 306, yeah right. Tiny is sub 1,000cc.
Of course it's stupid to make P3s & P4s act like XTerms. The savings come from buying cheap Xterms and beefy servers.
MOSIX over a normal network would be crazy. You're reliability goes out the window. Think uptime measured in days not years.
IMHO, thin client/Xterm computing is the most cost efficient platform for business.
Would make a great case for racial discrimination.
Uh oh, put the bible down sir. It's a dangerous two edged sword, most people don't know where it came form.

Clueless.
The question is not if there is common code, there is, but rather where the code came from?
So we're booting Linux on the XBOX, right?
RIGHT.
RTFA, invent != innovate
It's a shame that the humor of your post will be lost on the majority of /. readers.
