After a previous kernel update once caused a kernel panic whenever I switched between wireless connections (e.g. activating hibernate at the office and reactivating the notebook back home) I'm kinda wary of these things.
True, for me it depends on the type of publication as well.
I definitely prefer printed versions for novels, other casual reading and art books. But for stuff like tech literature it's definitely great to have a digital version so you can copy the code examples straight from the source. And have you ever tried to Ctrl+F in a paperback?
It's more a matter of principle. Just looks cleaner to use a boolean value for this, even if you can't reserve anything smaller than a nibble for storage.
I remember quite a few maths and physics professors who had the potential to make students go off the deep end. Hell, two years later the TA who taught our first-semester assembler course ran amok and first killed his mother and then himself!
Considering mass mailings of ad campaigns to addresses bought from god know where have previously offered animals their own credit cards that's actually not quite as impossible as it sounds.

The doctors have made the sharks obsolete.
What surprised me more is that Second Life is even still around after all those years.
Why shouldn't we allow patents of film plots including (for example) a teleportation device as found in Star Trek?
Because the movie industry is too busy running its extortion racket to follow up on things like this?
Was that the one with the Zombie Vulcans or the one where people evolved into tiny lizards and procreated with each other?
A game based on a soap opera?
Just for the record:
Siemens = German
