We could allways force them to walk down the streets, it is rather easy, just fill the streets around the banks with spikes, so they can not go in and out in their lioms, then, hit them with rotten eggs. It may not fix the problem, but I would volunteer to help. I'm sure will be lots of fun!
Well, since the value of the US dollar is dropping rapidly, it is just fair that when you pay in US$ you get less, so a few counterfeit IC’s in the box should be expected and considered fair play
Elections are coming within a year for Obama, he needs to look like a descent person. Complaining about Netanyahu makes him look like he does not want to supply the weapons that are killing women and children in Palestine. But deep inside, he does not care
We are fortunate the “patent system” is a relatively new concept. Just imagine what would have happened if Mr Daimler and Mr Benz had filed a patent for a horseless carriage with four wheels or if the Wright brothers decided to file a patent for a device that produces lift as it moves forward (Aeroplane wings) or Edison decided to file a patent for a piece of cooper wire that conducts electricity. We would still be in the middle ages (And the church would control the world)
Should apple threaten all the apple growers all around the world as well? It is quite possible they use apple images in their boxes and it is therefore possible that some retard will think they are full of iWank devices.
And what about mother nature? Mother nature is using the logo without paying any royalties to apple . Outrageous!!!!!
I’m not surprised this post was anonymous. Otherwise the poster would have been identified as a vulgar, retarded and immature person that most likely never finished primary school.
We all know that the US is going to do whatever Israel asks for, because they are scared of what Israel can do to the economy if they don't. As for the peace process, neither the US nor Israel are being truthful about it. They both believe that peace means Israel is the only country in the middle east. They are both supporting Israel genocidal expansionist policy.
Lazy people will not ever again need to turn the temperature control when going out or coming home. One more step in increasing laziness and reducing intellect in our society. Add to that rubbish like McDonalds and frozen dinners so you don’t need to think what to eat and progress into the next millennia has given a huge step forward!
This is equivalent to having an automatic gear box in your car. Those were designed initially to give freedom to drive to the disabled and today every intellectually challenged person that has problems synchronising the acts of pressing the clutch pedal and moving the gear stick wants one. I guess one day soon we will no longer appreciate the real beauty of life. The sound of a violin will disappear because nobody will bother to slide the left hand while pushing and pulling the bow with the right one! That is why people go to restaurants, because they are to lazy to cook and they go to brothels because they are too lazy to be creative and court a woman. Civilization is really coming to an end one silly invention at a time!
I'll believe it when I see it. There are lots of users that still want to keep total control over their data. Think about doctors, lawyers, accountants, stock brokers just to name a few. Also companies that are in research and development will feel uneasy about having their data stored somewhere else. And even if the data is stored in your local machine but handled by a networked application, still being controled by a third party. I wouldn't put my data in their hands, specially if the OS is supplied by Billy gates and his cronies.....
Well, code reuse is neither good nor bad, it all depends on the quality of the code you are going to reuse. In the case of Micro$oft, since the code in IE is not all that good, the idea of reusing is is not something to be taken seriously. Also, IE is a browser. I can hardly think that a browser can provide some of the "core functionality" of an operating system. At least in serious operating systems, core functionality does not relate to bells, whistles nor appearances. When someone that develops serious operating systems refers to “core functionality” is generally speaking a reference to the robustness and efficiency of the operating system and modules of importance like networking, not to a lame GUI.
I had a Palm Pilot IIIx and to unlock it you had to slide the stylus from left to right at the bottom of the screen. That is proof that Apple is just another patent troll
I'm quite happy running OpenSUSE 11.4 in a Toshiba Satellite. Everything works and the machine is rather cheap. The dual core CPU performs nicely and there is enough disk space to run everythink I can think about. Even Kstars runs with ease and being Linux, you know that unlike the mac, you have not subsidised a company that uses child labour to build their machines!
Well, with an army stealing petrol all around the world, an energy department is not really necessary. Commerce, is not necessary either as the US can force any country into a “free” trade agreement at gunpoint. Education? Who cares about education? You don’t need it to go and die fighting for your country while stealing petrol in Iraq. Housing, almost irrelevant, there is no need to build houses because every body able person should be invading another country. Urban Development are you joking? Nobody needs urban development, just build training camps!
My point exactly. And it is not their shop their rules. Regardless of where you are, the law does apply, even in private property and the person taking the potpgraph has rights under the law. Unless you can prove otherwise, the shoping center guards and the cops were just commiting abuse by threatening a person with no justifiable reason.
My guess is that they have a hope of finding where are the chemical, biological and nuculear weapons hiden in Iraq.
For as long as they do not conclude those weapons are in my cupboard.....
If I ever find myself in such situation, (And I do not live in the UK) I would ask the officer for the law that specifically forbids me from performing a specific action. Having said that, on several occasions in Australia, I have been asked by security guards in shopping centres to show the contents of my backpack. Every single occasion I have refused as I will not accept being treated like a thief. I have had arguments with security staff and even with managers of the largest shopping chains. On one occasion the matter went all the way to the court as I had a security guard forcibly inspecting my backpack and I called the police. The security guard was charged with performing an illegal search, and lost his security license.
This article sounds as realistic as one of my high school teachers that claimed that by the year 2000 we would have flying cars, under the sea cities and commercial operations on the moon. A decade later, I'm still trying to find a way to buy a flying car.....
The results are favorable to Microsoft, so there will be a ton of skepticism, investigation, and outright dismissal.
Yep. Mostly because Microsoft has a history of purchasing favourable "findings" from "independent" "research" firms.
However, when studies favorable to this particular community's ideologies are announced, none of that occurs, even though the same kinds of skepticism can and should be applied.
Kind of. The process and parameters should always be checked. But the other browsers do not have a history of their parent companies purchasing favourable "findings".
It's called "learning from experience".
There is no reason to forget every past instance when evaluating a new instance. Quite the opposite, in fact.
Well, you also need to consider that if we are talking about internet explorer we must be talking about an operating system that is poorly designed so it need serious protection. Basically microsoft has build a boat full of holes (I believe they callis something like MS-Windows) and they pnly produce software for that environment. Now, if you are going to run a browser like Firefox, konqueror, opera or chrome under a proper operating system, that wouldn't be necesary....
Just a thought....

Well, I guess then that the insult that you refer to, does not apply to you

It is enough to have Bill Gates running Micro$oft. We don't want him running a country as well.....
