George Orwell was a complex man who frequently criticized his own views. In general he was a democratic socialist. Animal Farm and 1984 are more against totalitarianism than socialism.
And this is because MP3 codecs can't be included in an OS without paying a bunch of money to Thomson (licensee of the MP3 patents). MS and Apple can pay this, Ubuntu can't. How could this ever be solved for free software until the patents run out?
Maybe because the MD's actions on receiving the email was to forward it to his employees with a cover message that basically insulted his customer and implied that he knew that what he (or the customer) was doing was worthless.
At the very least it's rather unprofessional behaviour. I won't go into how unprofessional it is to have your company's emails leaked onto the internet...
The glide ratio (aka lift-to-drag ratio) doesn't depend on weight. Adding weight increases the speed at which a glider achieves it best glide ratio (although the ratio stays the same), hence the use of water ballast in racing sailplanes.
By the look of it it probably does have a better glide ratio than wingsuits. But still way under 10:1.
Yet all the BSDs are really good. Especially OpenBSD. Maybe everybody doesn't need to work on the same OS and the ego thing just provides the nucleus for a new one (or new fork!).
How do you see that happening on the desktop? Will the user touch the screen or will he use a multi-touch tablet? (maybe some aiming dissonance there). If he touches the screen won't his arms get tired? Or will it be a more horizontal thing ala the Microsoft Surface?
All the other PC drm solutions (MS plus a few also-rans) can burn to a CD. This is a record label restriction anyway.
Also, it's possible to write your own PC player that handles MS drm (Napster and Yahoo do this for their subscription services), but its using the underlying drm calls from Microsoft. (You need a signed library from MS).
Bottom line is that all the PC drm systems are equally restricted since the requirements come from the contract with the labels.
Astronomers will see an horizon beyond the local gravitationally-bound group which will suggest spacetime expansion.
Also, analysis of long-lived first generation stellar objects (red dwarfs, brown dwarfs) will indicate primordial hydrogen / helium ratios and show a big-bang origin in the finite past.
Where is the trusted key storage for a PC or a Mac that's using iTunes? I.e. how can the iTunes player access a key that another application can't except through obfuscation?
...Chicago. It pulls in with 4 freight cars, 2 tank cars, and 1 flat car. How is it possible, no matter how sophisticated our method of observation, for us to make any conclusions whatever about whether freight cars, tank cars, or flat cars have been added to or subtracted from the train at, say, Cleveland? Moreover, how is it possible to say that freight cars have turned into tank cars or flat cars along the route somewhere?
Horray for superficially plausible but completely incorrect analogies.
Not only incorrect but not even plausible. It's perfectly reasonable to imagine subjecting the freight car couplings to "sophisticated" materials analysis to determine when they were last stressed and by how much.
The arguments on that page boil down to "I don't understand how that can work, therefore it can't be correct".
It's already pretty trivial in Java to write multi-threaded code, but the last thing you want is to have to specify which cpu to run individual threads on as you suggest. Just let the scheduler decide where to run the threads, then you will get adapt to runtime conditions.

Is the chip that does the compare and moves over to the backup similarly redundant?

You've obviously never thumbed through an agricultural supplies catalog...

For a single method - like everybody is.
Hopefully, they didn't use RoHS.
Notice the "when in actual service" (and all the stuff about militias and naval forces). This doesn't apply to ordinary citizens.

...driving NS-10Ms.
I hope it doesn't sound as bad as that. Good tools for mixing, but they sound dreadful in 'hifi' terms.
Likewise, you can't go to a site offering clearly unlawful media content and think that you're not breaking any laws
What's the legal status if the content is being offered by agents of the copyright holders?
Do other solutions offer this?

That doesn't do you any good at all if you haven't got enough energy to melt it.

But totally brutal transportation costs. This is waiting for the invention of the railroad.

Any serious Windows developer is going to have MSDN. The licensing is a lot more liberal.
Edge(sic) is commonly referred to as 2.8G
I work in this industry and I've never heard EDGE called that. 2.5 or 2.75G maybe. The journalist should stick to works of fiction.

Surely being in free fall is the very definition of weightless? You certainly can't be weighed in such a state.
I could drop my DSL at home, and use bluetooth computer connections to the phone for all my at-home Internet needs.
You would have to have the world's crappiest DSL connection for that to be the case. Or have rather minimal needs.
