What in changing the DNS were specifically tailored only for web browsers since the start?
Of course, the web browser for most is "internet", even when sometimes the urls arent exactly http:// or https://, but since the start the dns attack meant to go to the real whole internet (at least, the one accessed by name instead of plain IP).
Realizing that goes beyond http addressses dont make it more dangerous, just make it clear that is not bound to a particular protocol or client, changes the observer, not the problem itself.
The resources that required at their launch time Windows 95, NT, Windows XP, and Vista werent not so common, and they still went forward. Probably with touchscreens will happen next too. Give enough demand, and market will provide, in a way or another. Probably this is the kind of extra push needed to rush ipv6, deploying more bandwidth.... and make more people security aware.
That is a good problem for "powerups". Taking in account an isolated signal to make an individual change, instead of the "real" way that takes a whole orchestra of signals to make a somewhat balanced change. As you point, you can build muscle mass but not the blood vessels to feed it, or maybe could hit badly the hearth or other parts of the body somewhat influenced by that growing (if not directly influenced by the "signal" as undesidered side effect yet to be found).
But if there are no side effects to worry about, and building muscle this way dont put us in a situation where the body cant handle it, would be nice.
Too bad that if is that good, won't be cheap (even if the materials are cheap, markets will drive it to the expensive side).
At last a software design from Microsoft with what i can fully agree. If you have something already installed and running from any other company, the unsafe action would be to install Vista, And if whatever you have installed is from Microsoft, better that it dont run even, or you would be even unsafer than with vista. In either case, refusing to install is the right and more security-minded choice.
Just turning the asteroid into pieces wont work, the pieces will still come in the same direction.
But what about using nukes as some sort of "propulsion" system (as in the Project Orion), so they can change the direction of the asteroid? Wont be something for the last minute, but, could work?
That material reach its peak at 950F (~500C). Not sure if MIT approach will worth combining with this as maybe the area needed could make electricity by other means.
But there are a lot of areas where heat is produced, and some of this could be used to get extra electricity.
Maybe the most important point, at what cost? how rare/expensive is that new material? If is very, maybe the main use would be not for our normal lifes, but maybe for i.e. space probes.
So this covers "pure software" process, but what about anything related to i.e. printers, cd/dvd burning, hd/usb/(database?) writting and so on?
Sometimes the spirit of the law it isnt in the way it is written. My 1st idea of what meant physical transformation was related to software that uses machines in a production chain, i.e. for making car parts or a can of soda. But the way it is written opens enables again "generic" enough patents.
If i got it right, is the criteria that is already using the USPTO in court. So if someone get sued for breaking a software patent that isnt an exception, can be used that criteria as defense (and hope for the best).
If this end in that the patent is revoked, well, not sure about refunds paid when the patent was valid,
how much particular? What about i.e. iPhone? There are a lot of patents around it, probably several related with software. If "tied" means "no way you can implement a similar algorithm if is in a different hardware" should be mostly ok.
This could be the silver bullet needed to kill all patent trolls.
All depend on the number of people wanting to put content there.
But i dont see it as a Wikipedia replacement. Wikipedia mean to be not only the reference on a particular topic, but also something objective, not attached to a particular person or how that person sees reality. In the other hand, at least some articles in Knol gave me the idea that more focused in how the author see something. Wikipedia goes for "This is that" vs Knol's "This is how i see that"
What is so earth shaking in something that has been for so long time in popular culture to deserve to be patented?
Somewhat, i wish they win, more than that, that all patent trolls win, so gets evident even for the ones that profit from them that the actual idea is nonsense and must be reformulated.

It was going to the grave, but changed direction. Now they are going to their roots.
Lets see:
- Cloud - 100% vaporware
- "Microsoft working on" - 100% vaporware
- Microsoft saying "something post-windows"- 300% vaporware
I almost can see the announcement in Microsoft web site:
Preorder Midori now! With 500% more vaporware!

To all people that didn't finished school to search for fame and fortune.
to go to their level and start to use the Chewbacca defense.

Now there is no such thing as anonymous coward... you will still be coward, but now you are a known one.

Is not a heavy activity, helps you to relax, give problems another point of view and enjoy fresh air/view/whatever, even know *shudder* people.

The way the world is going on, maybe nukes will be the way to avoid any future asteroid kills humans here, or maybe just the few surviving ones.
But what about using nukes as some sort of "propulsion" system (as in the Project Orion), so they can change the direction of the asteroid? Wont be something for the last minute, but, could work?

God patented trees in the 4th day or something like that... you have a prior art lawsuit coming from above.

September is more than a month away. KDE 4.1 is supposed to come out in 4 (?) days.
So next stable Debian version will not have KDE 4.1?
