There are small systems that can produce recyclable water even for single family homes. The National Sanitation Foundation now has NSF Standard 350 so manufacturers can test to a protocol and become certified. The water can be used (depending on state code) to fill toilets, urinals, water the lawn, wash your car, lots of non potable uses. Right now there is only one device certified, the Bio-Microbics Bio-Barrier http://www.biomicrobics.com/?p=59 However several other manufacturers are now testing. Recycled water is no longer limited to large facilities.
Verizon just won this in the Supreme court. You must be reading Constitution V 1.0 which is out dated. The 7th Amendment has been revised to allow big companies to do what ever they want as I just said along with reducing the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 6th amendments to meaningless gibberish.
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
Ahhh. This was from version 1.0 and no longer applies.
Solid state HD, 10 seconds for cold boot to live, both GSM and CDMA cell modems, full size SD card slot to upload pictures from my Canon Camera to Picasa, Very bright screen that can be seen in full sunlight with 55 y/o eyes, actual 8 hours of usage on battery (online), nice keyboard unlike netbooks, and a couple other things.
I have two laptops. A MacBook Pro with an Ubuntu partition, and Samsung Chromebook, I really like both. Many here comment negatively about Chromebooks and my guess it is mainly those that do not won them. I use my MacBook in reality as a desktop, and when I travel I PREFER the Chromebook. I would like to see a Chrome tablet, and would prefer that to an iOS or Android platform for the tasks tablets do. Until you use a Chromebook in real life, and see most of the negative " can't do anything without internet access " are over blown, don't knock it.
I am guessing they are for executing anyone that writes a program to upload anything to the interwebs. I'll bet they even discussed trying to put this provision into ACTA.
America is truly the land of sheep! President Obama used an "executive order" to invoke ACTA here, where constitutionally the Senate is needed to ratify treaties. I'd say that is a clear violation of his oath to uphold the Constitution. Nobody here seems the least bit concerned about losing their right to free speech. Sure, SOPA/PIPA are postponed, but they will be back. Meanwhile in Poland, thousands take to the streets to protest their voices being silenced by the ACTA treaty. Maybe they remember the old days under Communist rule and don't like the same thing coming back with a different face. Wake up America!
Sorry, it would work out. It would allow younger, more energetic ( and more cognitive ) people take the high paying jobs that are now given to old folks that really don't do anything but schedule meetings for more meetings. Business could afford to pay more because they would be more productive.
This is why we should move the Social Security retirement age down to 55. It would free up jobs for the young, and let us old folks relax with our monthly check and medicare.

Maemo is toast, Symbian poofed. Not RIM is going. Wall St and cell carriers did this.
It's like the ocean now only has two species of coral. Android and iOS make up the entire eco-system.
What fun is that?
Maemo / Meego Harmattan. Period. Full Stop.

Reminds me of an Edsel convention.

This is politics, and Frothy is just being creative.

I wish the Pirate Party would gain a foothold in the USA. I don't like either sides of the same rotten coin that has power now.
And some of you want Republicans in public office?
Sorry, MPAA. On a similar note:

I'm 55 and have been involved with software development since the late 1970's.
I'm done!
I'm thinking an ice cream truck.
I'm sure the Nazgul are free post SCO.
Sorry.

This is Slashdot after all.
