Is a bad choice anyway. Not just a Microsoft bash, but aside from all the security issues, windows is XP is a desktop platform, not a OS to be putting on dedicated devices ( even the so-called embedded version really isn't any more appropriate for this, don't let the marketing folks fool you )
An ATM should be running off a custom embedded OS targeted for this purpose, not a commodity OS.
It really doesn't answer the question of what happens when Google proper loses interest and pulls funding. Does it survive on its own, or vanish?
If its was a more established language, with decades behind it, there would far less risk in choosing it. But that is always the chicken/egg problem with stuff like this.
Need is relative. Even if all i want to do is have my wife send me a note to pick up milk on the way home, its not the governments business. So in reality, *yes* i do have something to hide. It doesn't mean i'm a criminal. Its called personal privacy.
If it doesn't generate advertising revenue, Google will kill it.
Ok, and the problem with that is? They are a for-profit company, and if a product does not live up to revenue expectations it needs to go. Just like thousands of other companies do on a daily basis with their 'under performing' products.
And plenty of obscure things that you couldn't buy if you wanted to. I agree, now we are stuck with 'top 40' type sties. ( or going underground )
But all that said, i don't trust them. This may be 100% legit, and the original founders have come back to life but at this stage of the game, i doubt that has happened.
I'm rather tired an annoyed how SCOTUS can wreck and change laws by simply interpreting them differently.
To be fair that is their job.. But i do agree they are not being consistent with the Constitution, which is how they are supposed to do their job. They are not supposed to rule by 'personal feeling', but hard facts based on that document.
The market is saturated New computers are not that much better than what you have now. Most people never wanted a PC but wanted a tablet.. The economy still sucks..
Slashdot Mirror
No, Sony is what made the lesser quality format win...
A few remember, but we are not making consumer devices.
Um, this is what warrants are for you moron. And why they are so important.
You can hope for unicorns too, but it wont happen.
We will lose yet another piece of our rights here. And it will spawn even more encryption techniques..
No.
To destabilize the bitcoin market. Pseudo anonymous bartering mechanisms scare the feds.
Of course so does paper money.. for similar reasons.
For their Native CPU perhaps? ( RedStar, mostly a MIPS copy, if i remember right. )
Sounds small.
And we don't need that traitor Snowden to tell us it was happening: no kidding it was taking place, and anyone that didn't know this was a moron.

No one spoke out since it didn't effect them...
Ok Attorneys: Could this qualify for a class action suit to shut them down forever and burn them to the ground?

Is at least a proven technology...
If Theo wasn't such an ass he wouldn't be in a such a bind.

They also pay to come to your shows. ( assuming you play live )
And as you say, some of us out here do support our 'artists', at least the ones that don't try to screw us.
The question is: what can we do to permanently remove illegal file sharing from the web?
Tho you are a troll, ill answer you question anyway: Revamp copyright laws so its NOT illegal for non-profit sharing to occur.
Now back to troll, i do hope you are one of the 'victims' and everything you do is shared 'with impunity'.
Well, it knew my old login and password. So at least part of the database was there.
Still, no way to know any of these things are not an *AA honeypot now.
Problem solved.

They will win the decision. Anything else in the discussion is moot and a waste of time.
This just go show several things:
The market is saturated
New computers are not that much better than what you have now.
Most people never wanted a PC but wanted a tablet..
The economy still sucks..
Die, mostly.
