If I recall correctly the 3GS process is actually underclocked to run cooler. I want to say it's an 800MHz running at 600MHz, but I'm not certain about those numbers.
how did they find SHE did these searches? Well, it's like when they find out that a gun that was used in a murder was registered to the suspect. It doesn't mean that the suspect actually shot the person, but it's pretty incriminating that it's registered in his/her name.
And it's the same concept here. There's no definite proof that she conducted the searches, but a computer that is in some way connected to her did.
However, the design problems revealed in that thread... What design problems? I read that thread to the end and it seems that the error you were reporting was related to a bad hard-disk.
Yes, sadly we still live in dark times, when an OS has problems installing/booting itself off an error-prone hard-disk.

Wasn't the entire point of the domain name system to avoid addresses that are difficult to remember? How am I going to remember that IBM is under vendors.software when their name is "International Business Machines", not "International Business Software"? And I find it funny that you've included Amazon in your example when Amazon is one of the worst possible examples you could have, largely due to the fact that Amazon sells everything under the sun nowadays. You'd have:
All for the same site. Also there are so many niche industries out there it would be impossible to classify them all within one or two levels. What's eBay? ebay.services.auctions.com? What about the people who just have stores there? storename.ebay.vendors.*.com? What do you put in that wild card: sportsmemorbilia, clothing, antiquelocks, glasstrinkets....
If we had used your system from the beginning right now we'd all be saying "hey, anyone remember that internet thing? Man, that had promise."
Having worked with a few touch-screens I have to admit that problems with the calibration are frequent, and often amplified if the user isn't that technically savvy. When the screen is a little out of synch it's usually easy to tell how (ie: registering a little low), but even when people can clearly see that what's registering is about an inch off of what they're pointing at, they still won't adjust their pointing.
On a side note: what, something built under a government contract having cheap parts? No wai!
Oh please, you can't even begin to compare poverty in America to the rest of the world. America has incredibly high standards for poverty, I used to work with a guy who was on all kinds of government assistance programs, but yet somehow managed to come into work with a new piece of jewerly or cell phone every once in a while. He would be a stastic on your poverty charts, but had a nicer cell phone than me.
Also, the article you linked to mentions nothing about starvation, so that's just an inflamatory comment. It's impossible to starve to death in America these days, there is food everywhere. People don't starve in North Korea because they're poor, they starve because there is simply no food to eat.
As pointed out by linvir I really did mean India. Although I do find it funny that your post is just as much "flamebait" as mine (Uhm... India is a democracy. Unlike the US., clever), but your post gets modded insighful because I'm a big stupid American. Maybe I should list a foreign website as my homepage. My karma would go through the roof.
I mean, how exactly are they supposed to really enforce such a thing? Would owning an XBOX 360 then be illegal? If that becomes precedent, that frankly scares the shit out of me. Ten years down the line, having some of my electronics retroactively made illegal to possess?
What? Illegal? Where did you get that idea from? Microsoft wouldn't be allowed to make anymore, and any 360s that were left on the shelves would be returned and probably destroyed. This has nothing to do with the consumer that has already purchased one.
I guess that they figured there was the possibility that a bug could get in there and screw things up. And so once it happened, it moved from theory to reality and hence the "first actual case".
Really, he's the only guy with an account on Twitter, Facebook, LiveJournal, Blogger and YouTube?

Uhh, you know that's still based on DOS right? You should update to Windows 95 like me to be safe.
I can't help but notice that in your post you blame everyone but yourself. You might want to look into that.

Oh thank goodness, now more sensible countries like China and India will have a say about internet policies.

The Turing bombs were electromechanical machines.

"Why go IPO when your earnings are just fine?"
It'll be interesting to see them answer this without saying "because it made us an assload of money."
I might be alone on this one, but I thought that Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was nearly, if not as good as the book.
But even in cases like this, both formats are usually good in their own way, with neither one really being "better" than the other one.
