Since when has evidence collected by a private individual/organisation ever been ignored by a court of law or legal party what such evidence can be verified as conclusive?
With the United States track record or aerospace engineering I literally almost pissed myself laughing at this. We're talking about a nation that bolts a space ship to a B747 because they couldn't foresee the years of #fail with their Hypersonic rocket plane and are giving up.
I might actually give into I continuance if that gets funding. There's a reason planes use Roles Royce engines and there's a reason they don't have access to Skylon.
Tbh I've found degree weilding coders to be overly egotistical and head strong too full of their own ideas and unwilling to learn, take advice or appreciate the work from those without a degree. There's something about having a degree that makes them so pompous, patronising and oblivious to that fact.
I have met some who aren't because some people in this world are great. But wow... The majority could really learn something if they got off their high horse.
In the UK, sweet FA! And this was only several years ago. The most they were willing to teach in a government school was that a computer runs Windows XP. On Windows XP you can use Word, Access, PowerPoint and Internet Explorer. Thank Christ I did my own research and avoided being trained to be a secretary.
I met a WOW player once. I thought it was interesting and tried to catch it in my pokéball.
But it was angry, short tempered, had an ego complex like nothing I've seen except in some FPS players so I just left it and it's translucent skin to slip back into the shadows and commit to offering a bare minimum to society.
Huh, it's broken? Damn I wish you'd told me sooner! What part? I'll fix it!
Mine appears to be ok. It's precisely how I designed it to be and that's what I love about it. I pieced it together about 4 years ago and it's still running strong. (IBM think pad t42 / 1.6ghz single / 1gb ram / 80gb HDD. And yes I do have a powerhouse).
Doubt mac or windows 7 would run anywhere near as nice. GIMP, music, 40 FF tabs, FileZilla, and more it's all happening here!!!
On an informative note: I think the statements are pretty null talking about desktops like that. Sure, Gnome was a bit of a flop but it's being revised. It makes a damn better impression than Unity to first time users I'm sure.
KDE is another big player and they just got investment to continue on their project as it may be entering an enterprise environment soon. How exciting:D
But relative to the topic, how would I *fix* it?
Well it could be made better by making a really noob friendly distro, which is with a DE that's fresh in looks, intuitive and makes the migration for technophobes from windows to Linux much easier. We could call it CoughGnome.
Couple that desktop environment with such a distro which has a large application database, with easy one click installs, support for PPA, and support for 4+ years and recent developer backing from a huge games vendor with a keen interest in Linux... We could call it CoughUbuntu.
Damn if only such a thing existed.
Get them n00bs on board and using it the corps will follow.
For those who are adept they're probably having fun on Archy or Sabayon or at least a Debian derivative.
Admittedly I understand some whine about shared packages with gnome when all u want to do is have GIMP and not have gnome but tbfh if your enthusiastic about Linux you probably arent habing issues and you probably aren't saying its broken.
Yeah yeah yeah, you can all say the user is stupid for using the same password on multiple sites./careface
Yahoo still lost 400000 passwords and coming from a corp that not on. End of storey. The way many big companies handle user data is complete bs and there's no arguing that.
I agree. he should be given a medal or something to the effect of a Nobel peace prze for trying to give the internet to everyone (under the assumption the ppl he helped were'nt loaded and he didn't profit massivly from it)
regardless I am in firm agreement that his penalty is twisted and unfair and unbalanced compared to bankers and corporations penalties for much worse
if you are a normal man or woman like myself anything you put on the internet is esecially not private unless you encrypt the tits off it. do not expect the UK Data Protection Act to save you.
howver if you are a corporation where generally a lot of law attempts to make you transparrent you have very little to worry abou because you can afford lawyers.
that may sound cynical but in light of the recent DNS blocking in Denmark of google etc it seems that nothing makes sense at the moment. or maybe it never has and I'm finally grown up enough to see the world for what it is?
ubunt is very new and always updating with new versions. you'll be ok with an LTS version coming out later this year.
Debian is also another good choise as it's what ubuntu is based on and its very easy. however although it spanks the pants off of ubuntu the stable version is dated and the next official release is next year.
so if time is a factor and you are learning you really only have two options.
ubuntu or CentOS.
centos is based on redhat which is insanely stable. redhat as u must know are enterprise class. but centos is nice and free.
both debian and redhat based linux have a nice package system too!
in terms of window managers and or desktop environments... gnome 3 is still immature, unity is bloat and xfce is meh. metacity is a bit dated now too.
maybe worth looking at gnome2 with bluetile, xmonad or OpenBox.
-- side note:
fedora is goood and so is mint. but the above is my advice.
source: me I've tried everything from archlinux to yellowdog. I developed my yellowdog linux on the ps3. 9 years practicle experience
DIABLO 2 from Blizzard and Tiberian Sun from WestWood Studios are an exception to this rule.
still a massive userbase:o
however with a game based on cards u pay for I'm sure that in the uk law you would be refunded for those 'electronic goods' amiright?
can you really copyright something purely natural like a birdsong, or fur, or a frog's 'ribbit', or a waterfall?
I know that back in 1999 American corps wwere patenting our genes. little to say some people were a walking infringment and lawsuit as were their children.
would be nice for the 'little man' to one day get his own back
no I dont believe it. there's been a curse for remotes for years. none of the universal remote software ever has your telly or the device u get doesn't have IR.
if things change in a decade I will be suprised.
think about how long it too to standardise a plug socket for powering a tv or lately the new microusb for smart phones.
grimbles grumbles cynicism maybe. but I bet u it takes forever.

Read the question: since when..?
Is it worth mentioning that sprin does not effect gravity? Only mass does. Spin only effects the acceleration of gravity by centrifugal force.
Thought you aught to know.

Not that I'm an expert in this field...
