Notice that Ethiopian orthodox church descents directly from the original Christian church in Judea, it was not brought into the country by west-european missionaries in later ages. They had over thousand years of tradition of painting Christian images without even knowing what white people look like.
Linux 2.4 might be "proven" on your old Xscale system, but I doubt anyone else has even _tried_ to use Linux 2.4 on something as new as Atom. Linux 2.4 will also lack support for any of the peripherals of your Atom com module.
Correct. On linux 2.4.x based routers the default kernel based limit for simultaneous NAT connections is selected according to amount of RAM. Since routers have minimal amount of RAM, the default gets set really low. If you can login to the shell the device, fix is easy (real example from my a-link router):
are google infringing copyright of gMove? no. are google infringing patent of gMove? no. are google breaching a contract (NDA, NCA) with gMove. no. are google abusing gMove's trade secrets? not possible, unless there was a contract between gMove and google. did google clone functionality of gMove. Yes, but thats perfectly legal.
So, unless there was a NDA/NCA contract between gMove and google, under which gMove shared the trade secret with google, which google then proceeded to incorporate to their own mailloader, gMove's case is warrantless.
But the press release mentions no contracts, nor any shraring of trade secrets.
The posts like your make the mistake of assuming that 3G pricing has anything to do with the price of 3G basestation. Wimax basestation might be cheaper than a 3G basestation, but the backbone infrastructure costs are still similar.
Now some wimax fanboy is going to jump in and claim that wimax infrastructure will be cheaper because you need less basestation. Which is, exactly what that Australian rollout tried to do, with disappointing results. For microwave based communications, if you want blanket coverage, you need dense network of basestations regardless of technology.
High 3G pricing is purely due to lack of competition (or cartelling...), not technology. In some markets entrance of wimax competitors will bring competition and thus prices down.
In.fi all operators offer unmetered 3G plans beginning from 9.9eur. Undercutting that with a wimax network will be hard.. Roaming abroad OTOH still remains ludicrously priced. I don't see wimax fixing that thou.
Notice that these three operations don't work alone - there's affiliates, bullet-proof webhosters, botnet sellers, spamware sellers. If the top three "spammers" go from the group, the rest will find someone to take their place. perhaps just some fool to take the blame while the rest reap the profits..
Oh, lack of reliability is why *everyone* without access to engineering teams is using M16 instead the notoriously unreliable AK-47.
Granted, soviets completely lost the ball with when weapons started becoming computerized and insanely complex. Then again modern warfare is too expensive for any sane goverment. It is so much more cheaper to bribe a group of strategic people of a unfriendly country than bomb the country to a parking lot with multimillion dollar cruise missiles - And you'll still end up fighting against a ak-47 equipped resistance..
You could argue for better firefox support, but as much as we love linux, I suppose they have no obligation to make it work for something that is that small minority among desktop users.
Eu translates all documents to 20 languages, including Latvian, Lithuanian, Estonian and Maltese. With 450 million people in EU and about 400 000 people speaking Maltese, we have EU caring for even 0.1% percent. Even the streaming service includes translations for those languages!
I don't really care about EU streaming service and it's lack of Linux support, but buying shrink wrapped Microsoft solutions has serious economical consequences. Directly: It drains money out of EU. Indirectly: there is less knowledge on howto build streaming solutions in EU, if all we know is howto "click next" in some wizard.
So why not use fluendo streaming or some other EU based solution instead?
That would be Counter-counter -culture. But ok, I can see the path that leads to thinking like that. Basicly the person thinks he/she is cool rebel while still being completly mainstream. which is what happens to most countercultures eventually anyway. It's still brainless to "underdog" a profit monster, whether it is a software monopoly or a big record label numetal band.
Anyone who gives a microsoft product "underdog" status should be castrated. There are zillion smaller and more sympatihc mp3 player manufacturers to give your sympathy over (iRiver, Archos, iAudio,...).
Eleven/8 blocks where assigned this year (06). There is 71 blocks left, of which some are not usable (10/8, 127/8,..), so that leaves about 6 years of ipv4 address space with current consumption.
Tighter address (re)usage and (even) more NAT are likely to into place before that.
It is probably feasible with Qualcomm BREW based handsets in cdma networks. CDMA operator has power to "push" content, including applications to you device. BREW apps can access your microphone and don't necessary need to be visible.
GSM networks don't have such delivery systems, and use java for applications. Most phones don't support starting Java midlets automatically to backround, or access microphone. Even when in background, running applications are visible somewhere in the menus.
Basically the java applets are sandboxed, while BREW apps are signed by the operator to be "trustable".
Me too, I don't remember when I last bought anything from the evil giant!
"DRM-Hell" I also hate how Windows media player DRM's cd's you rip with it! And PlaysForSure, if it's plays for so sure, why doesn't it work with their own player, zune? They don't need a rootkit since they already OWN your computer.
"Propiertary media formats" WMA,WMV,DOC,XLS,SMB,MFC
"Propiertary memory hardware" I haven't heard about this. Probably because they are not in memory card business (yet.. still many markets to grab over).
"NO Post-Sale Support" That's unfair, you can call them for a new Activation code anytime!
When CD's came out, many CD's where mastered directly from a LP lying around. Basicly the result was worst of LP and CD, LP's noise and limited dynamic range, and CD limited 44Khz frequence response. Later on record companies noticed that people will actually pay for a third time for their record, if they dig up original master tapes and relaunch the record as "digitally remasted". Perhaps they only sound better than the first generation CD's because they have been compressed to sound better on average joes tiny speakers but that's beside the point.
Same way studios did not really try their best on first DVD remakes, and probably many current HD releases are just upscaled as well. Upscaling 320x200 to 640x400 is quite spectucalar new bottom for entertainment industry. Claiming that finding something better than 320x200 would be too hard or expensive does not really fly with current all-digital producing.
Well, your knowledge sucks then. The first HD-DVD player on the market runs redhat Linux, so there ALREADY IS a hd-dvd player for Linux.. just comes bundled with hardware.
Well, wifi is very much like coax. Except that wifi is 3D and invisible so it's harder to figure out who of your neighbourghs misconfigured their wlan. With coax you can just follow the wire and beat whoever connected their t-connecter the wrong way:P
If you had read the fscking article instead of Linkys's site, you would know that Linux actually does run with the half RAM/flash of v5. So either:
1) Linksys had a secret agenda to kill Linux (please loosen tinfoil hat if you think so) 2) Linksys trusted vxworks salesman too much. (possible) 3) They have a truly crappy deal with the original Linux firmware provider (Cybertan?) requiring them to pay more per unit than vxworks offered. (also possible - rumouredly Linksys was originally not aware their routers ran linux)
In any case, for 2MB of flash, hacking potential is quite low, and I find the habit of changing hardware and OS without changing the product name evil.
And linksys, if you bothered to make a separate "GL" model for hackers, why not put a serial port to it too? Now that would be hackerfriendly..
A big portion of movie studios went from SGI to linux clusters (and desktops, too). Ofcourse, it was not clear that they where going Linux in the beginning, but a more visionare managment of SGI would have seen the opportunity of providing supported Linux graphics workstations and clusters at the time practically no HW vendor was yet providing supported Linux systems.
As we eventually saw, SGI's managers didn't have vision and just followed the analysts first to Microsoft and NT, then to Itanium, and finally to Linux (when even analysts had jumped the bandwagon).
..Only if the hardware works with ONLY Redhat's key. If you can your own keys, or replace Redhats key on the hardware (which should be possible - else the freedom of the hardware is missing completly!), there is no need to redhat to offer their private key.
And such hardware does already exist, ie the TPM chip on IBM thinkpads - just that it isn't used by the software yet.
My biggest beef just with my initial impression of playing with it for 30 minutes is that there isn't a microphone built-in.
I'm sorry to dissapoint you, but there *is* a microphone builtin. The tiny hole left from the power plug. No apps included supporting yet, but that will get fixed in a software update next year.

Shutting down red hat wouldn't work. The developers would just start a "Blue Hat" company and start building a distribution called "sombrero".
A example from Ethiopia:

1) macrovision
2) partially true, but dvd's sold nicely even before deccs came out in large and region-free dvd players appeared.
It's not the DRM that's affecting blu-ray sales. The suggested future replacement for blu-ray, internet distribution is even more DRM-affected.
It's the price of blu-ray content that is keeping BR away from massess.

Since routers have minimal amount of RAM, the default gets set really low. If you can login to the shell the device, fix is easy (real example from my a-link router):
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max
256
# echo 10000 >
Closed-OS routers typically have similar static tables designed before bittorrent was invented.
On newer 2.6 kernels there is also support for "stateless" NAT, which allows unlimited amount of connections behind.
