Abolish it for big corporations (BC) They need no protection for their new ideas, they have the means to build it market it and sell it before the rest. They will get a de facto monopoly for a few years.
Only the small need the protection of this unnatural monopolies.
There are still other corners to polish, but this lone messure will reduce 'the sand in the gears' to a bare minimum.
He wants better roads leading to exclusive big malls, and shitty roads for all the rest of us.
Whereas Akamai is a final distribution point. You Get the same goods around your corner from the very same people AND good roads for all us. Leading to everywhere.
If either of both outcomes establishes that the US is being hurt by software patents, then there is no need for a trial at all. Software patents should be abolished. Patents are an unnatural way to help promote innovation by granting a time limited monopoly. If they cause the opposite effect, it is very clear which steps should be taken...
The difference is that Microsoft has a monopoly for desktop OS, and Skype has no VoIP monopoly. Of course Joe user will not run an Asterisk server, but will but an ATA (with out much understandings about ATAs) from his Internet provider (which is very popular these days).
On the other hand we are talking about a retail motherboard. Anyone well informed about this motherboard VoIP features is surely well aware of SIP:)
Why on earth would someone prefer proprietary VoIP in a motherboard when one can have those cheap Sipuras/linksys 3000 with much more functionality, open standards backed from most VoIP leaders, no need for a computer nor to have a it 24/7/365 on, with little power requirements, fall back to PSTN when Internet fails, plus a tone options. It is really a no brainer.
... that after more than 300 posts no one read it properly. Slashdot says that "the system responds by making it harder to depress the gas pedal" which would lead to an incredible amount of accidents! However if you RTFA it says "making it harder to push down the car's gas pedal" which is the opposite thing...
No, I am not new to Slashdot. I know very few RTFA, but did not know that very few read beyond the headline!:)
Humans didn't appear until about 30 seconds to midnight late on the metaphorical 7th day
I think you are paraphrasing Carl Sagan and mixing it up with the mistical 7 days.
What Sagan said in his book Cosmos is that if the Universe history is imagined as a full year, Homo Sapiens appeared on December 31st 11:56:30 p.m., which makes humanity life span much more diminute!

I just installed FF 1.5RC on a friends machine (Pentium II/III 600 with not much memory). It was impossible to use (taking too much resources) to the point of being no use. Had to unistall it, and leave IE alone...
This beer has a viral license. After you drink it you are running embedded beer and you will have to open all your internals for free (small fee for sending your intestines is acceptable)
I would have gone (that's actually what I am doing) with one double core Athlon64 + XEN and multiple virtual machines.
Less space , less power, cheaper, easier to upgrade, easier to back up.
I think the problems is yours for being too much into video games. It is a very clear and bright analogy that any non techie will get. Your wird video games are the ones making reference to fary taless, not the other way around.
Once RMS says something most mortals will understand and you mod parent up?
There is a company that places IT foreign workers in Europe (mostly in Germany).
Their main resource of qualified people is South
America (therefore the site in Spanish) but is open for other candidates.
They take care of the administrative tasks related to the residence permit and even cover the costs for the job interview (transportation, etc).

This malicious post should not be modded down but DELETED.
Bots do not care if the poster was a troll.
You hit the nail.

Easy to choose, isn't it?

It's funny that the above sentence reminds you a Mary Poppins' scene when, if read it carefully, reminds me Mary Carey's one...

In the long run Skype is doomed.

First post?
That would only be true if you distribute a modified version of the beer.
On the other had that is unavoidable.
Your modified version gets distributed next time you flush the toilet.

That is true for systems that have inertia, where it is very difficult to change course when many people are on board.
With pure software is simpler, it is (mostly) just a free update to the latest greatest technology.
And those to rise software examples like mp3 and ogg, this is not pure software, there is a built mp3 library that not many wish to rip again.
The better will prevail.
Anyway, the web server is melting :) I have coralized it
Good news, this means they will have to drop the Trusting Computing idea altogether... errr if this was truly an "effort to be fair and consistent "
but those screenshots should be really impresive!
Grandma said the same about him after she bought grandpa some extra BatMax IonXR from some other enlargements firm.
Well, in Hebrew means "Paprika", letting me think
though the project might look nice from the outside,
it is actually empty inside.
However in Italian "Gamba" means "leg". Therefore
I lean to think the project is probably "going" somewhere.
Sadly, in Spanish means "Shrimp", so if it is going somewhere
that has to be the bottom of the sea.
Seriously

Please!
I would send you the fix, since I have solved this problem severl times today, but I am currently busy upgrading to firefox 0.9.1, sorry.
It not only fits perfectly into my kid's tree house but it is comparativlely very cheap too.

Send them your resume to cv@empleuro.com and let them do the search for you.
Fluent local language or English required. Should not be any problem for anybody here :)
