and have the cars charge themselves along it as needed. Maybe just california. would be a huge improvement to air quality. run it with cheap, clean, nuclear power. and then I woke up.
Just remember - ALL empires are evil. M$FT, IBM, SUN-JAVA, OSF, STALLMAN, etc. They all want to the head highlander. There can only be ONE. You never hear about evil anarchies...
can't see that a console is just a PC with prebought video that the makers cripple to disallow you from doing what YOU want with the device, rather than restricting yourself and $$ to what THEY want. PC games expose the emporers shiny hiney - no clothes.
when it was cool. And java was waaay too slow for anything useful for quite a long time. Now it's the Cobol for a New Millenium tm (ugh). I personally wish every java bag of bytecodes, jar, JVM, and xml file would fuse into hydrogen ions and become background radiation. Ruby (or something like it) will be a better place to spend time once the hype settles and the implementations sizzle.
Once we had everyone (midlevel to high) suddenly drop one by one after weeks of successes. The big battle involved a mysterious demon lord that seem to have a blocking move for all of our favorites. The very last character left of our party engaged the creature and asked what did he want in order to survive. He asked to know the date and time. Of course it was about 1:15 a.m. (after work) April 1st. We nearly boiled the DM in oil. We did throw miscellaneous objects. And emptied our mugs.
to call them deniers, not skeptical scientists is ignorant of how science works and maybe even a tad racist. The JOB of every scientist is to doubt, question, and attempt to disprove theories and hypotheses. This is how science works. They are still going after quantum theory and all of the numerous atomic and molecular models - not to "debunk" them but to refine them or in some cases replace them with better (more complete) science. When we stop thinking, science rusts.
it was the viral dream of the language system. When he saw it wasn't going to happen (and l*x implemenations were just coming on strong) then he did not want to play nice with anyone. Sun had an evil genius strategy (The ((sun-based)) Network is the Computer tm) that could never permit a friendly coexistence on windows with a "java layer". He wanted it all and got nothing. Story happens all the time. See IBM and OS/2.
one of the reasons apache web server has not changed appreciably in five years. The world moves forward but a lot of originally great OSS gets trapped in time once it is "good enough".
and when you hook up your new HP-nanotastic-laserzap2008 and it says "driver not found - using Generic HP Painjet1998" you will know why you should have ponied up the 50 bucks for professional software.
MSFT will go out of business and the OSSFS movement will have an effective monopoly on office software. Not a real monopoly just an effectivly undeniable one. Others will exist but have no chance to overtake. Just like when MS gave IE away and killed netscape. Took years to get a decent replacement (firefox). Giving UNIX away (licensing source for a song) gave AT&T the same leverage over universities. Took years to recover from that with zero innovation for decades until someone finally questioned command line scripts with esoteric options.
and the social engineers who experiment on them do not like it one bit. Expect a LOT of reporting on why we should, no MUST live in cramped, unhealthy, dangerous, crime-ridden cities instead of having our own place in the country or outskirts of urban areas. It is so much easier to control the freedoms of the masses (communication/transportation/religion/education) if they stay imprisoned in urban cages.

and a big one at that.

the notion that GNULinux is socialist. China should eat it up.

Socialism is a form of well-meaning slavery. As long as everyone consents, NBD.
>>in Soviet Russia, frameworks call you.
Arr, my mateys, raise the jawlly rawjah!

How about playing games (running programs) from more than one vendor or allowing open source gaming?

Such as - first we attempt to disprove our hypothesis -Doh!! now you are a heretic.
