I don't know how much work Ubuntu does on upstream stuff, being it Debian or original. What I know is that I can get a number of bugs in Ubuntu which are not present in Debian or original. But I can also see improvements.
Is the bug in Linux kernel? Then you won't ket any fix from Ubuntu! Is the bug in the userland power manager? Then don't blame the kernel and don't expect any news from Ubuntu! Is the bug in the Ubuntu packaging? Blame Ubuntu. So the question is: where the bug actually is?
The current deployment of BTSs for cell coverage needs a different approach. Especially because in a crowded city like London, most of the BTSs would be femtocells or picocells. If only a BTS would cost, say UKP 1,000 each, that coverage would cost UKP 70M, without counting the yearly maintenance costs. For each non-virtual operator. Unless we also start pushing for telecom infrastructure sharing.
Well, all major "things" in the internet, those who make it working and useful, have been brought to us with that "theoretical, academical process" you dislike. It's your right, of course. What you are pushing forward is known as "act soon, fix later" because "there's no time" or because "we need it yesterday". This is what I personally dislike a lot. You say all browsers support the "interim HTML5". Have you tried this site with ALL your browsers? Also the mobile ones? Each of them only partially supports one of the intermediate drafts. Which is a two level uncertainty. And what about this one? You surely know about the "cross browser" issues with Javascript. It started with two different implementations of a non-standardized scripting language. There are still hundreds of lines of code being run in almost all web pages just to cope with it. And if you think about the big mess all the current browsers are doing with the mature HTML4 and CSS2, you can imagine how messy the scenario will be with HTML5. Web sites will still need to support all those dialects and variants of the HTML5, if they want to show the intended way. Look, a stupid bug is not being fixed in any open source browser. It's about a core HTML4 element which has forced hundreds of HTML publishers to look for partial workarounds.
So, in my humble opinion, standards matter. And also a lot.
Again, the standard is not here nor there nor anywhere else. IT'S A DRAFT. Have you ever read anything about standardization processes (IETF, ISO, ITU and so on)? Drafts are for study and tests. Not for real implementation. They can be completely changed or even dumped or commited at any time. Only once it gets the status of STANDARD it is a standard. Try read this. Or even this one.
Yeah! That's the RDBMS duty! Which is software. So what'd the be the plus of yet another RISC CPU? With super-pipelined Intels and AMDs behaving almost like RISC, with multimegabyte L3 caches and so on, the gap between RISC and CISC is almost zero. Apart of the power hunger. Mine was humor, anyway. A CPU running SQL in silicon is an absurdity.

As long as they keep Berlusconi as PM, they are not credible at all.
Ditto.
>All that CO2 for nothing!
All those digits were calculated with Occupy San Fran bicycle-powered laptops [france24.com], you insensitive clod!
All that CO2 for a false reference, you insensitive un-green clod!
All that CO2 for nothing!
Why on earth? And also in the universe?
Would you mr policeman give me time to run this pretty app before you use your handcuffs on me?
'less than one tenth of one percent'
Which means ... how many accounts?
Are you contacting the compromised account owners for assistance?
They should mangle the HTML presentation part, thus killing the HTML author work.
HTML, as it is now, is inherently page-less.

It's not a BIOS bug as long as there's some other way (Windogs?) to cope with it.

I meant:
a P2P (network with encryption) like DHT
That is a network modeled after DHT and supporting encryption.
... I'd need a few mod points and a value for "-5: Too stopid to be scored as -1: Troll".
When finally there will be a P2P network with encryption like DHT used by some ... P2P networks.
Or do this.
Nope, it could be, but it's not.
I solve a lot of security and confidentiality issued with a sledgehammer.
For anything else (or to complete the action) I use the fire.

Having duplicates is not an issue here.
Checking twice is better that checking once.

It's really scary!
Sounds like tortures or unlawful inspection.
My point was that the standard is there

The draft IS NOT the standard.
Otherwise it wouldn't be a draft.
SlideShare is now viewable on every kind of mobile device
As long as they support that very flavor of HTML5 which, in turn, is still a draft!
