The speed is insignificant. The amount of data it can contain that is the killer in information theory. A container can not contain more than the container it itself is trapped within.
It is impossible to run a full simulation of the universe you are in, since it would automatically multiply the complexity of the universe infinitely (a simulation inside a simulation, etc).
Basically yo simulate the entire universe you need a computer the size of the entire universe (assuming the universe is a computer).
More layouts and more options? Not bloody likely unless hell freezes over, the beast rises and eats Steve Jobs. It will play solitaire in a finely tuned, highly tested, optimal configuration with a single layout you _will_ like, or else..
Sun turned the control of ODF over to a standards body a long long time ago, before it was even a standard. This is what made it much easier to pass the ISO process than OOXML.
How did this ill-informed racist piece of shit ever get moderated up?
German cars are still among the most reliable and best performing cars available. So are the french cars, and even the spanish cars. Probably because the engines are all designed and manifactured by the same people now a days.
Actually the way to get a proper KDE desktop in Ubuntu AND Kubuntu is to add the Debian sources to the apt/sources.list, and pull the Debian KDE packages, which unlike Kubuntu hasn't been tampered with and ruined.
Only in theory. If that happened, it would be a political scandal and BBC would cover it happening. Several governments have tried pressuring the BBC, but all they have gotten so far is bad press.
Still not piracy, OEM versions are no different from any other versions. In most countries you can even resell them legally. Only thing Microsoft can do is try to encourage their resellers to only sell OEM versions to OEMs.
Maybe with configuration, but look at features in stead. Windows has way more features than GNOME. For instance just a basic thing like "Open with" in explorer. In GNOME you can not open files with applications isn't officially GNOME sanctioned to open those files, and there is no way to change that, even though the have an editor for changing fileformat bindings, it doesn't allow you to add new programs. It basically goes on like that in every GNOME application. Windows is simple much more powerfull and usefull than GNOME.
Exactly. Tag the story "notheydont" or "FUD". This is classic anti-GPL FUD.
The result of breaking any license is that you have to stop breaking the license and pay compensation. You have the choice between removing the offending code, or start obeying the license. In this case Sony has no reason to not just remove it.
I am sure Putin agrees that Kasparov has a "snowball's chance in hell of winning", and it is going to stay that way as long as the government supresses the opposition. The situation is not that different from the US, where two strong parties just work together to suppress any real opposition.

Impossible. Quantum mechanics already make that short cut by doing laze programming. They only resolve states that are observed.
Sad, but true
To silence critics. If you are against the proposal you like child pornography and aids terrorists.
The majority of whom? The majority of those who owns an iPhone, or the real majority of everybody who has decided not to buy one?

Most pets are colourblind. Coloursight is one of the few sense where humans are above average among animals.
And you really need to learn basic psychology. It is not the your absolute level of wealth that matters, it is how rich you are compared to others.
UTF-8 has no "endianness" being only 8bit. UTF-16 is required to start with a BOM character that determines which endian is used.

What took you so long?
They have been the Microsoft of the mobile industry for almost a decade.
Google "Battle of Vienna". We stopped the islamic tide a long long time ago, and they have not posed any real threat since.
Ehmm, usually the only way to win a war is to invade your opponent and force them to agree to you peace terms.
Think about it, were the US in a Civil war with Germany when you invaded?
Inflation is bad for the 'have's and good for the 'have not's. The last category basically means 99% of us, those who lives of loans and pays mortage.

Remember the magic phrase: EULAs are not valid!

Yes, IRC is very much alive, both for Open Source collaboration, but also for (actually usefull) conference calls.
That's only because you don't "vote the bastards out", you just alternate between the same bastards.

They are all high fat snacks, so you've just proven his point.
