The issue still hasn't been fixed, and Apple seems to be pointing the finger at the car companies to update the vehicle firmware. As if that is a viable solution.
What is with these announcements using the term "open-source information" when announcing "crimes" committed by using information that is publicly available? It used to just be called "public information"
Many times there are laws or contracts preventing this. For example, I know in CT it is illegal for a bar to buy beer at a supermarket and then sell it, even if it is cheaper than buying from a distributor (which it is). I imagine in the Art business, if they guy is caught buying at walmart and reselling, the distributor may refuse to sell him other things not available anywhere else.
So you mean the ISP companies may have to forgo the multimillion dollar bonuses for c-level executives for a bit and make capital investments in their network with some of their profits?

On the other hand, I wouldn't want the surgeon to have to give instructions to a trained monkey on how to do the the surgery because the surgeon does not have access to the production patient.
Not the trend I have noticed. In the beginning lots of useful apps came out. Lately i have noticed a ton of crappy 99 cent "games" and anything more complex is having a heck of a time getting approved.
And similarly, when creating a rip of a dvd, the artist's choice of compression level, codec, ripping method, etc are all artistic choices. Therefore, under your logic, the pictures of each frame of the movie ripped are under the rippers copyright just as these pictures of paintings are.
Does this mean the RIAA and the MPAA are also 'a danger to everyone involved in the creative industries' because they act as the intermediary between creators and audiences? How has copyright law lowered the cost to enter these industries in the past?
Ok, the "app bundle" is gone, but the "application framework" is there? Microsoft was forced to remove the entire "application framework" from windows. Maybe my analogy was off. Perhaps it is more like "dragging iexplore.exe" to the trash but leaving all the dlls behind. Not that i am much of a MS apologist, but this seems like using different names for similar things and acting like its totally different because its Apple to me.
If this update could fix the iphones, putting it into recovery mode and doing a restore probably would have fixed it too. Anyone calling that bricked shouldnt be messing with their iphone in the first place.
What we really need is not a grass resistant to herbicide, but a hardy grass that only grows to a maximum height of 2" and stays green easily, if not all the time. Of course producing this grass would kill SScott's fertilizer business, not to mention the mawnmower manufacturers...
Am I not even allowed to "play with" or modify a copyrighted work in the privacy of my own home though? Am I breaking copyright law, creating an unauthorized derivitive work, when I draw a moustache on mickey mouse in paint shop pro to show my little brother?
Why does linux need this foothold? So we can have nonfree, proprietary software released for it? Linux is for the do-it-yourselfer. These are the people who got Linux where it is, and these are the people who would be able to contribute and help it improve. This is software of the people, by the people, for the people.
Linux, at its roots, is a hobbyist project. Making it esier to use is always a goal, but I cannot agree with you that what linux needs "more than anything else" is 20% of those bellyaching, finger pointing "I can't be bothered to do it in two steps, I need it done in one" users.
Freedom (speech) isn't for everyone. It is quite obvious that many, many people are willing to give up freedom for so-called security (someone to point a finger at), and MS Windows seems perfect for them. Linux did not get to where it is today through the efforts of this 20% of desktop users.
Also, lets not forget, these companies are "stealing" "IP" from linux contributers, as much as kazaa users are "stealing" from the RIAA.

So now the car is holding the phone wrong?
Yes, TFA says "after wiping his hard drive" but it sounds like like he deleted his browser cache.

And shuts it down like they did to meebo. Really disappointed in them lately.
Who would better know how to defend against these attacks than someone who knows how to develop and implement them?
Would be better if it supported DisplayPort as well as dual DVI. I can't use dual DVI with my docking station.
It may be a good idea to have a premium sci-fi channel, but syfy isn't it.

Yeah, but it would be nice if a *web browser* didn't require DBA level maintenance to keep it working right.

Would this work with Netflix?

So to summarize your comment, the difference between MS and Apple is Apple allows you to drag the shortcut into the trash.

I think the funny part comes from the thought of this administration actually owning up to its obligations and following the law.

Try explaining that to your wife or girlfriend.
I'm sorry, did I see that right, they are CHARGING for a "pre-beta", "hobbiest" O/S????
How about enabling firewalling before connecting back to the network? Seems like a simple solution here.
