It's cute that teenagers still think they're the centre of the world, meanwhile Facebook is moving on from pure social networking and starting to absorb special interest groups from blogs, forums and mailing lists.
I guess it just went underground for a while, a lot of the bands I listened to at the time were still releasing records on vinyl, and you had to go to record fairs or mail order rather than shops. And releases in that period now sell for a fortune.
I think the internet is something that probably helped, taking that nascent mail order market and making it easier than ever. Discogs probably helped keep quite a few small businesses afloat.
I don't really see it as competitive to the digital or CD marketplace, more an extensive of it enlarging the market as a whole.
Did it really start like that or has it simply never gone away? I started listening to vinyl in the 80s and haven't really stopped since. I've just always found it more enjoyable than either of the digital equivalents, it's just more fun than juggling CDs or file management (and I've tried both).
If you want to push digital files on optical disks then surely you're better off trying to convince those who already buy CDs or have moved to downloads/streaming.
And Photoshop + LightRoom, for those of us who (1) can't easily afford a Mac and (2) must use actual Photoshop + LightRoom and (3) have color-calibration hardware that doesn't necessarily do the right thing when Windows is running as a guest OS.
You're really listing trademarks rather than requirements there (at least for the first two). If you're tied to Acme(TM) then platform becomes pretty much an irrelevance as an independant choice, as you're limited by what Acme(TM) supports.
I think you have your fallacy reversed. You could say that atheism like theism is an ideology, but claiming atheism is religion is like saying dogs are cats because animals are basically cats.
Have we inherited this "power users" term from Windows or something? I remember those guys, always tweaking the GUI to optimise their workflow. Looks like some things never change.
Nuclear is expensive and needs a huge amount of public subsidy. Private industry doesn't seem to have found a way of doing it cost effectively. People also seem to have problems with it being a global solution to power needs, given all the jumping up and down about countries like Iran getting into nuclear power. Then there's handling of waste and water consumption, so it's hardly problem free.
The kid in the parallel universe was still dying, it's just that his character had worked out how to save him whereas the father in the parallel universe had been distracted just as he was about to hit on the solution.
I don't think playing eccentric characters says anything about the psyche of John Noble, probably more to do with casting agents etc. who need to fill the role of a crackpot.
Motorola Mobility does not pay but Motorola Solutions does pay. And didn't Google sell Motorola Mobility to Lenovo anyway? The point is that Google used patented code and left all Android vendors exposed.
I've always found the rootkit story an interesting one. There are a large number of third party DRM systems that have been in use on Windows over the years. This was just another one of them. Sure this one had some nasty side affects, but so do a lot of DRM systems that Windows has supported. As far as I'm aware this DRM did nothing on any other system. So why is Windows given a free pass on this one? It was designed to allow auto-install of software from CDs that were placed in the drive. Designed to be a DRM friendly system. So you you boycott Windows as well?
Well if all the self-driving vehicles communicating with each other, they could easy make room for the tractor-trailer to turn at that busy intersection. That's the one big difference I can see with self-driving cars, the possibility of them knowing what neighbouring vehicles are doing: what speed they're going, what turn they're intending to make. You could end up with the situation where vehicles are collaborating in the same way that ants do.

We had one at home, only one local video shop did rental tapes. Fun times.

But hey, if you like regedit, you'll love gconf!
What do XML files in directories on the filesystem have in common with a binary blob?
Time to go and catch a few Mahars.

You've not been paying attention Jerry. Nothing unusual there.
Yes, a lot of it goes towards offshoring jobs.

Take it up with hogwart, he's in charge now.
But surely being able to squirt songs at each other on the other days made up for that?
A sealevel rise of 1 to 3 millimetres per year isn't going to inundate anything for millennia.
What is a 1 to 3 millimetres rise in volume?
...or that actor Ronald Reagan.
Of course point and click shooting always wins, it eliminates the pesky aiming and replaces it with positioning a cursor.
Of course you can, I bet it only got censored in the US.

And there was me thinking it was satirising all those people who throw around the term SJW as though they're the new reds under the bed.
The job of government would be to enforce standard food labelling so that you have the information to make those choices yourself.

There is no such thing as patented code.

Yes you can, it lets you create managed accounts for kids.
