The taxpayer. Once every couple decades, if you want to keep it up to date in terms of language. People don't take geeks seriously for many reasons. A well thought out way to reduce textbook costs 100 fold or more is not one.
The publisher barely pays the author now, that is not a big cost for them. Look at how text books are created, the authors work for peanuts.
Almost all subject below the graduate level are that settled. None of them need to be updated yearly. Publishers only do that to kill off used book sales.
Creative works will not cease to be created, humans have a need to create.
No, homes built in the 50s and 60s were often worse. The most egregious examples of this have already been knocked down or fixed. I say this as the owner of a 1955 built home that falls into the latter category.
When built the insulation was a total joke, fuel was so cheap they put in basically none. The windows were a single pane of glass, its r value is probably 0.
It would cost upwards of $0. Making copies of files on a computer is generally free.
Texbook publishers should for the most part go die in the gutter. There is no reason why a new calculus book has any value more than one long out of copyright. Schools should move to those works whenever possible. Textbook publishers have too long made their money on a captive audience recycling the same material into new versions every year.
I doubt the voters or those who run universities will ever push for this simple cost saving measure.
You are preaching to the choir. The reality is there no one to certify the apps. Most of these are from customers that require we use their systems and they have to be certified because they are crap.
If facebook failed this often grandma would find a replacement. We can't we are stuck using this crap or we don't get paid.
No one said that. Building automation is not going to need a lot of bandwidth. A modem would work fine and not expose it to the internet at large. Make the password very long and change the number frequently.
IE8 is still supported. Windows 7 is just now something large companies and government are moving too. When you have hundreds of applications to verify or port it takes time.
XP is still supported as well. FireFox only gained GPO support recently and not many folks are even aware that exists.
The war on drugs targets and prosecutes non-whites more harshly for the same action. We can directly compare the treatment people get and see the poor and the non-white get the short end of the stick.
The only reason he was elected is because the other folks were even worse. That does not make him any better. Sure he built home and did all kinds of nice things, he also was embezzling their oil wealth.
The only difference between Chavez and his competitors was that he would do nice things while stealing from the people of Venezuela. The other just wanted to steal.

People who are emotionally stable and qualified are not suitable for reality tv.
If each of these people were 64 meters wide this would work out.
I think he meant between them.
That still seems too short though, or these people are very wide.

Fine gratis.
FREE(libre) text books are not going anywhere the publishers will fight them on every front.
So VPN is not something you have ever heard of?
Or modems?
There is no need for these systems to be connected directly to the internet.
No one said that.
Building automation is not going to need a lot of bandwidth. A modem would work fine and not expose it to the internet at large. Make the password very long and change the number frequently.
The same place kids got free etext books when I was in college. The DRM will be stripped and the books will be available from the usual suspects.
You cannot use windows and be ignorant, I wish I could. They don't even have bash or ssh.
You learn a different work flow, but still have to learn something.
Yes, and right now it is still 2013.
Most companies are going to barely make that cut, many will not.
Well that is obvious.
You have to be to big too fail/punish/obey the law.
All that stuff costs money.
People will complain the government is wasting their tax dollars if they ever tried to spend money on that.

I think you can dump all the oil you like and get away with a slap on the wrist. Heck, senators will even apologize to you.
You could has just set a password for the root user.
Your ignorance is not someone else's fault.
Linux is just a kernel.
Puppet is easy to use for that, so is keeping bins on NFS, there are lots of other ways to skin this cat. Microsoft did not invent nor perfect this.
Yeah, marketing is a bitch.
Let's face it 99% of people don't even know about any alternative. Marketing is the biggest barrier.
I use gimp quite a bit, for an amateur like me it seems to be fine.
Both.
Being either poor or non-white means you get a worse treatment.
I never said any of that.
The war on drugs targets and prosecutes non-whites more harshly for the same action. We can directly compare the treatment people get and see the poor and the non-white get the short end of the stick.
No, I am saying the policy is enforced in a racist manner.
As in for the same drug crime white folks get lower sentences.
No one said any of that.
You badly need some education. For an example of your silliness, try using that logic to explain leftist anarchists.
He was stealing from them.
The only reason he was elected is because the other folks were even worse. That does not make him any better. Sure he built home and did all kinds of nice things, he also was embezzling their oil wealth.
The only difference between Chavez and his competitors was that he would do nice things while stealing from the people of Venezuela. The other just wanted to steal.
