There are many comments in this thread that seem to assume China is some backward country with no tech and no money.
China has more people under 13 than North America(including Mexico) has in total. China's productivity is growing faster than anyone elses. Chinas education system is strong in sciences. There is a big difference in living standards between the coutry and the city, but that is shinking fast.
If Nintendo chooses to sell old hardware to China, it might work for a while, but china will be demanding the most cutting edge products very soon, and with more money than any other market.
Why the hell do you think this is flamebait?? Fuck!! The fucking idiots who never post but feel free to use the mod points given them to mod stuff down are killing me.
This post is offtopic. Go ahead. Mod it. But your points are much better spent modding up.
There is a difference between laws. The criminal code is enforced by the state, but contract and copyright law are enforced by the stakeholders, with help from the state. So the choice to apply the law is up to the copyright holders.
The fact of it is, of course, that buissness violates laws for profit all the time. When the consequence of a violation is a fine, it just becomes another risk analysis to make.
This 'review' is just a cut'n'paste from the manual section describing the species, plus screenshots of the species description screens. Oh, and he throws in a screenshot of the logo selection screen. Some info about, ya know, gameplay and such would have been nice.
Dude. I love Safari, but any bug that can wipe out your home directory is bad.
My Mac is a production machine, and that kind of risk is far to much to swallow. I am very much looking forward to the next releases of Safari, but until then, I'm back on IE:-(.
What a fantastic collection of mods!!! You must be very proud.
For those of you who appear not to know. This post is 'offtopic'. The parent was not a troll, although it wasn't very polite. And this is not a flamebait, jerkass!!!! Ok, now it is, but it wasn't until then.
In the long run, technology like this might lead to more eco-friendly industry.
There's no reason that these things couldn't be made to be very reliable. In fact, they could be even more reliable as there are no solder joints or tired assemblyline workers to worry about, and the parts can't move. The parts can be made with much less material than they would take if you had to ship and install them.
In the end, it's up to consumers to push for quality over price.

It wouldn't suprise me if the process ocured in a vacuum in the first place. In that case it becomes difficult not to have a vacuum.
'It'll be so easy to write your own web browser, what with PB and IB and all, that you'll hardly be able to avoid it! '
After I got over how fast Safari was, I relized that the browser itself is nothing. It probably took longer to write the bookmark importing scripts than anything else. I expect frequent updates.
I agree with all of your points. I've been bitten many times by thinking I'm closing one view and losing 5 or 6 tabs in that window.
I still like tabs, though. And multi-button mice. Maybe sometimes you can break the rules.
One thing I thought of when reading your post. It's be nice that when I close a browser with tabs in it, it actually just becomes another tab in another open browser window, unless that's the last window.
The faq tells all. The first thing you need to do to get mod points is to stop getting so many 'offtopic' mods. It sucks, but many people with points are eager to mod down instead of up.
I think google likes to implement things only when it's a 340lb gorilla of a killerapp. That concept was an interesting one, that would mesh with google very well. I think the oncoming surge in always-connected mobile devices ensures that this kind of thing will happen.
Isn't it the final reason given for the existence of the human race in 'Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy'? That humans were created to carry a message accross time in DNA, but the reciver of the message had already known the content?
Hmmmm. For some reason, someone has modded you 'flamebait'. The only possible reason is that they, like me, are jealous of your youth, ya little punk.
I have an acoustic coupler modem, if anyone wants one. Your first computer compares so well to my first that I still think of 233MHz as 'really, really fast'.
Funny thing is, I still play Nethack regularly.
I was suprised nobody has mentioned this, but 'Linux Device Drivers' and several other current, important O'Reilly books are published under the GNU Documentation Liscense. I posted somthing like this post in todays/. O'Reilly anniversery post.
I think it's a great model, because I, and almost anyone I know, will pay to have an important book in hardcopy.
Kudos to O'Reilly and Prentice Hall for having the guts to do this, and to the authors also.
'Linux Device Drivers', 'DNS and BIND', 'the Linux Kernel' and the Apache reference are close enough to definitive for me. even better 'Linux Device Drivers (and others) are published under the GDL (documentation).

Uhhh, kudos to the Gimp and all, but no, it doesn't compare to Photoshop at all. the Gimp does have its strengths though, scripting, for example.

Media exposure hasn't helped science education since the Apollo project.

This doesn't look like the serious flaw it was posted as.

Why can't you people mod up instead of down??

Here is a big list o'things wrong with Safari. I've been using it all day and love it.
I'll be watching the google labs page.
I totally agree. Fast, lightweight, and highly complient. I bet we'll see tabbed browsing and other features introduced very soon.
I've been using Safari all day. It's my new browser of choice.
Unless I'm totally wrong, of course.
I have a PET, CoCo, AppleII, SGI Indy, SparcClassic and IPX, AppleG4, and a couple Intel type boxes. I need an Alpha, and a NeXT. I can't explain why.
I have an acoustic coupler modem, if anyone wants one. Your first computer compares so well to my first that I still think of 233MHz as 'really, really fast'. Funny thing is, I still play Nethack regularly.
peek and poke were my window into a bigger world. Thanks Radio Shack.

In fact the vague article, ease of verification, and obvious implications of this point to this being false.
