It has a header with a documented pin-out. If you're among the target audience for these boards, then you'll probably be able to have a board fabricated for your uses.
The nice thing about Firefox is that even Nightly, after Australis has arrived, can be configured to look none-too-different than it did in Firefox 3.5.
Chrome? Unity? Office? Windows 8? No real choice in the matter?
it does not allow applications to be displayed on a remote desktop and for example VNC has to be used instead.
This isn't necessarily true. It simply does not provide a method for remoting of applications. However, given Wayland's nature it's likely that any remote Wayland solution will be more efficient than VNC and even X forwarding, rather than less.
if they're right then we need Mir for Linux on smart phones.
That was one of the claims that Canonical made with no supporting evidence whatsoever. Ironically, Canonical made that claim, but Jolla shipped Wayland on their handset first - and the library that makes it possible to use Android drivers was developed by one of their engineers for use with Wayland.
Mir may be useful, but Canonical marred its release badly.
Why? Given they both solve the same problem, but one has wide support and has shipped on devices, what use is the other?
Some of the early limitations proposed in Wayland were frankly, utter shit, and it was only pressure to lift their game that led to them being dropped.
Mir did not appear until way, way late in Wayland's game, and it appeared with a lot of terribly uninformed commentary from Canonical regarding how Wayland worked.
This is no different than the leftists who screamed bloody murder about the PATRIOT Act because they said Bush could use it as a tool for GOP villainy who've themselves are now tight lipped in the face of ObamaNation corruption and worse.
Always amusing to see ACs spouting off with broad brushes and other batshit insanity. CAUSE EVERYTHING IS ABOUT POLITICS RIGHT!
Bullshit. Herd immunity is a critical by-product of individual immunizations, and allows those who can't be (or by biological fluke, don't get) immunized.
Unless you've done the research and experimentation yourself, you don't understand the science either, you just choose to believe it.
That's bullshit, frankly. It's possible to understand the science despite not having done the research and experimentation personally. SuperKendall's pretty much 100% full of shit.
This has nothing to do with science and everything to do with people not trusting the government.
No, it has everything to do with people unable to think critically about the messages being directed towards them and choosing to place all blame on the government, right or wrong.
No, this is akin to the Lexmark case back in 2005 where they used a chip to detect and reject 3rd party cartridges in an effort to protect their ink-selling business model. Thankfully they lost that case so I imagine that whatever "solution" GMCR comes up with will be handily defeated and the 3rd party pod market will continue unabated.
And when the lawsuits fly, their victim can cite that case and have the suit dismissed.
the GPL restricts you from making use of, say, a library in your software.
Technically, you restrict yourself.
If you link against the libreadline headers, then your software must be GPL.
No, your software remains whatever license you prefer it be under. It must be GPL if you redistribute it. From the libreadline site:
Readline is free software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, version 3. This means that if you want to use Readline in a program that you release or distribute to anyone, the program must be free software and have a GPL-compatible license.
So even if you wrote a bsd header, you'd still be linking to a GPL readline and thus subject. But that, again, only matters if you release your software to other people and don't swap the GPL libreadline out.
I think the new versions of the GPL are becoming exactly what the GPL was originally used to protect agains, another intrusive EULA, restricting usage because someone doesn't like that usage.
The GPL does not restrict usage, not even GPLv3. It continues to apply only in the case of redistribution.
My reading of the GPL3 is such that it is placing restrictions on use
Redistribution goes beyond use, and is specifically the scenario the GPL was designed to have an impact in. You can continue to use software however you see fit, even in ways that would violate the GPL if redistributed.
those states that are fighting to remove evolution from biology classes.
They aren't doing that. What they're doing is more insidious.
Most of these states are trying to give cover to teachers so they can go off-topic on religious matters and preach creationism, or allow students to opt-out of science lessons involving evolution. All of them are attempting to "teach the controversy" and mandate that unscientific quackery like "intelligent design" get equal time with evolution, to put it on equal footing it does not deserve.
Nothing you said is an argument against including finance as school-grade subject matter.
OOXML is transparent like mud. You know, cause mud has water in it. Therefore it's transparent.
When the "standard" obliquely references a tag as indicating to do something in a way that only Microsoft could possibly know or implement, then it's not a very open standard. Not that Microsoft even follows it in their own products.
Non-existent priests of something that doesn't exist.
once they feel confident in a conclusion it becomes like a religious dogma. Once they have a council and get all the archbishops to agree on this conclusion it is in their eyes forever true and beyond question.
Care to highlight some examples of this behavior?
Science is a method for ascertaining reality. One that presumes and requires the very skepticism that the priests fight as a mortal enemy.
I see you're tilting at windmills here, never mind.

Then stick with standard hardware.
That's an idiotic "rule of thumb."

No, it seems that half of the people reading this article crawled out from under a rock in the last couple weeks.

Microsoft would have to back down on the hard lock-down they impose via SecureBoot, first.

Or you could go exercise.

Doesn't it suck when you use products from companies that are borderline hostile to their customers on a given platform?

Or we could solve the problem instead of simply going "oh you should just not have children."
Because it's an inherent drive in most living creatures. Feel free to start with yourself, however.
Addressing the suffering of those who are here has no bearing on bringing in more life, nor are they mutually exclusive.
That's a sad excuse for "choice," especially when a solution is readily available.
So is clothing.
The gene pool would be unchanged because what's happening is a mechanical repackaging of the genetic material with non-defective mitochondria.

Yup because IT'S A CONSPIRACY!
Right? That's what Exxon Mobil and Fox News tell me...
They aren't doing that. What they're doing is more insidious.

No, they will begin selling into those regions. They're already shipping to much of Europe.
You know, regions that don't have problems with patent trolls tearing at companies with worthless software patents.

And here we have an example of a "self-fulfilling prophesy."
