There is indeed a dark side to Batman's character. Once Blossom chided one of her classmates saying "you can't pay to become a super hero." The response: "Oh yeah? Tell that to Batman!"
Microsoft Research went on an incredible hiring spree in the mid 90s, Picking up a majority of the top researchers in some fields. I'm surprised more killer products haven't come out of there since, apart from the difficulty of bringing products from reasearch to production I always observered at Bell Labs.
The basic reason was to control release dates, and to mollify countries like China who would like to prevent people from seeing a lot of films. Censorship. I'm not sure its an idea that was destined to fail, but I'd sure be glad if it did.
If you really want to show the courage of your convictions lets see you stop liking women and start liking men. If someone did this I might reconsider how obviously wrong you are.
As it is, this whole situation with Catholic priests is a perfect demonstration of the situation. Here is a bunch of gay guys that said "being gay is a choice, I don't have to be gay. I can be celebate." Great outcome, huh?
For controversial sites, folks will launch DOS attacks to coincide with Slashdot articles. This sometimes makes the Slashdot effect look a lot bigger than it is.
I'll think twice before checking out another shuttle mini system. The SV24 looked good on paper, but the company failed to release decent software support for the video or the audio. Sure, they had some creaky binary only drivers, but if you are trying to develop softwrae on these systems, forget it.
In 1974 I was in 9th grade and we would go to the Princeton University Chemistry department and use their Evans and Sutherland LDS-1 line drawing system, connected to a PDP-10. We would play spacewars all night. I wrote hidden line removal functions.
Yes, judges are loathe to jail people for non-payment of fines. This is a fairly central feature of our legal system, because it turns out that people in prison have a hard time making money!
The question is what to do right now, particularly with kids in preschool through third grade. We had a computer for our six and three year olds, but they spent so much time using it as essentially a substitute TV that it conveniently "broke".

What proprietary stuff are you talking about? Do you KNOW what you're talking about?
Average joe buys a PC and re-installs the OS? Yeah right.

Why are they fighting? It is not in their characters to do so. Don't be so naive, someone else is behind this.
Like, what your definition of hype is, and why each qualifies.

You could start by reading the articles. Especially the one on the MSR site.
Why is it so wonderful to have the states interfere with my life and so terrible to have the feds do it?
If you don't know who gives a damn you are obviously missing something.
The basic reason was to control release dates, and
to mollify countries like China who would like to
prevent people from seeing a lot of films. Censorship.

Where does *your* electricity come from?
Next year Ford will come out with a Hybrid Escape, which is a medium sized SUV. That link doesn't
work in my browser, but maybe it will in yours.
Some information costs many human lives to collect.
Only the operating system has the semantic information required to do a good job of rendering your display into a given grid of pixels.

they wouldn't have been arrested!
I don't know why I even bother...
Illegalizing something easy and natural is one of the worst things that can happen to a society. It makes us all targets of the police.
The part where he `donates' software to schools is laughable. The vaccinations are laudable.
It doesn't say better. Very strange article.
