...because Microsoft wants to buy it. They put Elop there to burn all the ships (Qt, MeeGo, Symbian) behind their back, so Nokia will have nowhere else to go than accept a 'generous offer' by Microsoft.
Look at Fukushima, you even bigger idiot! Almost contaminated the whole world and is still a ticking bomb. How dare you respond in such a demeaning manner after you almost blew up the whole world--with your 'unsafe', 'safer', 'safest' mumbling.
Finally accept the truth: Nuclear Energy Is Unsafe!
And if there were a safe instance of it, management and government in collusion would make it unsafe.
Disgusting!
I wasn't 'blaming everything' to corporate power. Just pointing out why corporations wouldn't want (to support) decentralized energy generation.
Re your 'inductive reasoning': Your link between premise and conclusion is very weak, so is your inductive reasoning, and--apart from that--the result is wrong.
...extrapolate...
How many decades don't we already hear "within 10 years fusion will be 'within reach', just add x billion (of whatever currency) to our research budget"?
If you already have a problem using data of the recent investments in solar panel production facilities for arriving at a forecast of the coming increased availability of solar energy production facilities, then--through inductive reasoning--I conclude that 'you don't know anything' about production planning. Let alone will be able to give an estimate of how much energy will be produced through fusion within the next 20 years. Or 30, for that matter. Or 40, or whatever, depending the excuses the fusion lobby will come up with.
Ok, fixed that, thanks a lot for the hint.
Any hint on how to prevent other application's windows to pop up (steal focus) while typing in one window?
I already did:
$ gconftool-2 --set/apps/metacity/general/focus_new_windows --type string strict
$ gconftool-2 --set/apps/metacity/general/no_focus_windows --type string "(not true)"
but that doesn't seem to help.
I'm feeling very sorry for your misguided clearvoyance telling you that I don't fulfill your educational requirements for posting here on slashdot.
If it wasn't clearvoyance, I'd suggest you do some post-academic upgrade course in logical reasoning, because you forgot to evaluate the importance of correct assumptions.
Solar and wind have huge infrastructure problems for load balancing and availability.
I suppose that's why Germany lately already hit the 10% energy contribution mark for solar and wind?
Nothing touches fusion (which isn't available yet) for energy density...
There, fixed that for you.
And
...one has readily available fuel.
I agree that an energy generation technology without fuel doesn't have much chance. But the same goes for fuel without existing generation technology.
But for solar/wind, one has both of them already available.
Ever tried to move the 'save page as' window in firefox in order to read elements on the web page which you want to use in the file name?
The whole firefox window will demaximise and move with it. What a mess!
Did anybody dare to call this 'added functionality'?
For me newer versions of the same program should obey my '1st law of upgrade': "Only add functionality, do not remove!"
One word: "Centralization"
The energy density of nuclear fission helps construct mega-corporations with influence over a huge user base.
'Fuel availability' is not a problem with abundant solar and wind (which is derived from solar) energy around here.
The big problem corporations have with that is that it's distributed hence decentralized, so it counteracts the 'centralization' (= monopoly/control) desire of said corporations.
Suppose you're with the NSA and suddenly you see only pictures going to an from a specific email account and you don't suspect it's steganography? Man, you could even automate the process of finding steganography! Then you put the person on a watch list for `possible terrorism, child porn, "or any other behaviour deemed suspicious by the President of the United States of any agency thereof".
It's no use encrypting your mail. With every mail on two computers, of which at least one is MS Windows and is as leak as can be, data miners don't have a hard time collecting your emails -- after being decrypted and stored by the receiver.
being an asshole isn't (or at least SHOULDN'T be) illegal.
He's not convicted yet, but could use some lessons in social behaviour.
Maybe here the educational effect of police involvement could be helpful and lead to a correction in his behaviour?
Simply arresting and cautioning him would strike me as being proportionate. Any kind of sentence beyond perhaps a small (less than £50) fine would probably not be.
Exactly, the police's action should be mainly educational: showing him this kind of behaviour is very untasteful, offensive and unwanted. Or maybe they could refer him to a psychiatrist for asperger syndrome.
Slashdot Mirror
Because I felt it was quite irrelevant. Thanks though :)
Short term ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukushima_Daiichi_nuclear_disaster : 0), medium term ( http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/medical-journal-article--14000-us-deaths-tied-to-fukushima-reactor-disaster-fallout-135859288.html : 14,000), long term (nobody knows)?
And what if/or when reactor 4 blows up?
...because Microsoft wants to buy it. They put Elop there to burn all the ships (Qt, MeeGo, Symbian) behind their back, so Nokia will have nowhere else to go than accept a 'generous offer' by Microsoft.
Stop spreading panic, you idiot.

Agreed. But what common stegamail user is going to do that?
Storing decrypted messages locally on an internet connected MS Windows PC is defying the usefulness of encryption.
Take off the tinfoil hat...
Corporate power and its abuse are real.

States have EVERY authority, except those constitutionally granted to the federal government.

'American' isn't a language. :)
It's an english accent
That's 27/1.2 = 22.5 yrs of Nobel prize?
Wow!

you don't know there's anything there

They don't need *everyone*, just a lot. And they also could hack your bluetooth so you won't even know it.

We are free to speak with our guns too
Wait a minute... was that a threat?
Makes me think... What is the location of the server he sent his messages to?
If it's the USA, he should be protected by the 1st amendment.
but they shot him anyway
No they didn't.
Your reply: "Yes, they did."
My reply: "Prove it!"
How many people joke about bombs in an airport anymore?
Oh God! How I miss those airport bomb-jokes. I'd almost start one myself...
And disasters and decommissionings paid by the public.
