In which corrupt third world country are you currently situated?
A "basic plan" includes voice, data, text and multimedia messaging charged individually by usage.
Pre-paid cards expire after 15 months, unless recharged in which case the amount is transferred. If the card expires, you get the remaining sum back in cash (taking money for a service and giving nothing in return is called fraud, and it's illegal).
See, now you can't avoid thinking about it. Just replace "polar bears" with "the body I buried in the yard" and you can see how problematic that can be.
What's the difference between magnetic fields stored on platters and electromagnetic radiation stored in air? The latter is just a fancy type of delay line memory.
At a minimum, they should be offering a free dial-up connection for installation of critical security updates, so that users would be able to protect themselves before going on-line.
With the size of those upgrades, I think it would be cheaper to have Queen Elizabeth personally deliver the updates by donkey.
Or subsidized CDs with upgrades at ye olde computer shoppe.
The government of Brazil says it will switch 300,000 government computers from Microsoft's Windows operating system to open source software like Linux. Microsoft founder Bill Gates wants to meet with Brazil's president to discuss the change. Brazil is dropping all proprietary software.
Brasil: "Ok, then I'll get it from the shop down the street. I'm walking now, waaalking...!" Microsoft: "Allright allright, but you're robbing me blind here!"
On Revolution OS (disk 2), Brian Behlendorf says that he chose the name because it simply sounded good unlike many of the other software names at the time. He wasn't aware of the 'a patchy' thing before someone mailed him and said "haha, I get it".

It won't have been there for a year until around May 6th :P
That's what they say/said about browsers.
Running as root:
-
Trojans/Exploits (hereafter referred to as Things) can delete everything, not just your own files.
- Lets Things load kernel modules to override
/proc and various system calls, to hide itself.
- Things can open raw sockets/low ports and sniff connections for various networking scams
Running as a user:You know, except for buying the system.

A TV/CRT has no moving parts. The movement of the beam is controlled by magnetic fields.
Mod parent down. It's randomly generated data.
Tell that to MSIE.
For example, no net café is allowed to open within 200 metres of a middle or elementary school.

This hasn't been newsworthy in years.
Indeed. Companies would just renew everything they own, just like they now apply for every patent they can think of, just to be safe.
Even if the companies go under, associations like the BSA would extend the copyrights for as long as they could for their (former) members.
Click, click? Bah to that, a shell script in ye olde crontab does the trick.
(Flashback to the Jetsons: "I had to push the button twice today!")
Like rats fleeing a sinking ship, Sun is revoking the licenses!

... rendering many parts of the world uninhabitable
Well, yes, but think of all the parts of the world which will be juuuust right!
Free positronic emitters for those who care to dig through them though, it won't be all bad.
