nVidia really has little reason not to open their source code to the public, unless they are doing something illegal or extremely unethical in their drivers. (Cheating at benchmarks, etc.)
All modern windows video drivers "cheat" in games and benchmark. The drivers fixes bugs in the games, and introduces new ones. Since the driver recognizes the game running and adapts accordingly, it would be odd to not do the same with benchmarks.
Government laws has created monopolies, you can either try to undo that, or try to counterbalance it by creating rules that limit those monopolies. Undoing the monopolies is hard as they yield too much power, and the creation of monopolies is a natural evolution of free markets if left unchecked.
Restricting the power of the monopolies is thus the only realistic free market thing to do.
Not only that, but if you don't redirect, the piss is going to hit the falling seat at a close distance at high velocity, generating a random spray that ends up everywhere, sometimes even on the ceiling.
They tested music ripped from CD and encoded by iTunes. That makes this test irrelevant to the music to the iTunes store, since that music comes from the original masters (higher quality than the CD) and is encoded using customised settings (per-album or per-song), while iTunes uses some fairly general settings.
That's what they should do. Though all evidence points to that they encode from standard CDs using generic settings. The few albums I know that are hard to encode properly also sounds like crap when bought from iTunes.
Which all happens very rarely. So in the rare case both pilots die from food-poising, there is still a 99.4297% chance the autopilot can land the plane safely by itself.
A modern 4 cylinder 2.0L 120HP European car, can pull 3000-5000kg (I've moved 2000kg with an older 1.9L 90HP engine easily).. So yes I assume they would fit a pick-up truck just fine.
The key element here is a manual transmission, which enables a much more flexible power distribution.
You only need your stupidly oversized engines, because you are overcompensating for.. the lack of social welfare, or something;)
It might be dirty, but it will be short. The US is a heavy import country, and will truely and utterly f..cked if it is buycotted by Europe and China. The only road to survival will be to kiss Chinese ass, or surrender to Europe..
I think your comment need the text "The lack of" in the beginning before "Net neutrality" to actually make any sense. Net neutrality would forbid differentiated pricing, and thus not encourage it as your comment implies.
Reality is that which doesn't change no matter how hard you wish it otherwise. The Holocost is objective reality. The fact the whole Middle East was on the Axis side is also objective reality.
You were doing so fine, and then you lost it..
Most of the Middle-east fought on the Allied side in WW2. It was in WW1 that the Ottomans was on Germany and Austria's side, after WW1 the Middle-east was divided between France and UK, and they fought _against_ Germany in WW2 if you remember.
Though instead the radio-stations are PAID to pay to play certain music. So the gain for RIAA is not monetary, but better control over what the radios are playing.
How are you going to exchange your subset of unicode if no one else is using it anyway? Who is going to have the right fonts installed?
The problem with unicode is that you assume people can decode all your data, but they actually can't. With small encodings people either have it installed or not. With unicode you have it, but it doesn't actually work for 99% of the symbols, because there are no complete fonts.
If you create unlicensed copies you owe the copyright holder proper compensation, but you have committed no crime. There are currently laws under way in the EU and US that will change this, but status right now is that copyright infringement is not a crime, and not illegal!
If you had "free will" you would be able to choose to make a different decision, which you clearly can't.
Even if the physical world is deterministic, there is still a huge difference between what a robot does and what a human does. If you like you call "free will": The illusion of "free will". It is a concept that make one entity behave different from another.
It is completely irrelevant for the discussion whether the world is deterministic or not, unless you are a fatalist.

The US is also Constitutional Democracy.
The two are not as mutually exclusive as your narrow two-party line of thinking suggest.

You have been told wrong. Most artist do not receive anything sales, those few big ones that does often have their own record labels (Madonna, etc).
You are talking to you friends?
Why do they just feel you are just pissing on them then?
Or is that a matter of: What friends?

South Korea and India.
Iraq is to the west of most of the world. In fact the whole world if you look at it from the pacific.
Not only that, but if you don't redirect, the piss is going to hit the falling seat at a close distance at high velocity, generating a random spray that ends up everywhere, sometimes even on the ceiling.
Why not?
He bombed innocent Iraqi civilians - we bombed innocent Iraqi civilians.
The actions are very comparable, only the motives differ.
You don't do directories in CVS..
Now go write your entire project in ONE file. That way you get it all, even atomic commits
That's what they should do. Though all evidence points to that they encode from standard CDs using generic settings. The few albums I know that are hard to encode properly also sounds like crap when bought from iTunes.

That (lack of) logic would completely destroy the business of safety deposit boxes.

Well, you don't know me then.
I hate it.

Baah. It is all Russia, the same way Scotland and Wales is part of England, and Rotterdam part of Holland.
This renaming trick is just a convenient way to avoid badboy-points.
WRONG!! Don't get automatic, because it's only for lamers and nooobs!

No. For christ sake get this: IT IS NOT ILLEGAL.
If you create unlicensed copies you owe the copyright holder proper compensation, but you have committed no crime. There are currently laws under way in the EU and US that will change this, but status right now is that copyright infringement is not a crime, and not illegal!

But lying under oath is not legal, not even when what you are trying to cover up is.
