Why do you need to buy them? If you have all labor replaced by robots, then we no longer need capitalism. Stuff can be free or very near it. Unemployment would not be a problem, but a goal.
Great, we can now have low quality closed source drivers that are killed off only to get you to buy a new printer on an open source OS. That really sounds like a worthwhile effort.
This is so wrong I have to ask, are you mentally challenged? First to file does not change rules about publication or who can claim inventions. It only changes the rules covering what happens when two groups attempt to patent the same thing at nearly the same time.
Honestly what is wrong with a little wealth redistribution? I realize it is not popular on slashdot, but if that is what our economy needs so be it. When the rich have all the money they don't spend it. If we give that to the poor, they will spend it right away.
That is because they are using this to improve margins. Much like the car dealer will lie about how those alloy rims only come with a higher trim package, they don't how else would he get replacements, hardware vendors want to bundle crap too.
If you want 12 core Opterons you are automatically required to get a 2U machine from dell. It does not matter than the 1U machines could use those parts, they do this to improve their margins.
Lots of stuff like that, feature X only is enabled on Platform Y. Intentional crippling of hardware leads to this big buyers side stepping these vendors.
Already we can tell you are doomed to failure. You are writing a script while ignoring the fact that this functionality already exists. Just cat/dev/random into your db.
It is easier, it is still wrong. It should be opt-in to prevent people from using it for new installations.
It is not a subtle fucking difference. It is a huge big honking difference. Either you don't know the information which is null or you know it to be "".
They could just not create things, no one is being forced to do this like a slave.
Copyright was created to encourage the production of useful works. We have plenty of these being produced, clearly this level of encouragement is not needed.
There was never any DRM secret sauce, for netflix on android. All you had to do was change the build.prop and the old client always worked. If it has used secret drm sauce it should have failed when that software/hardware was not available.
Which is better than what people are making on other OSes, look at the losses Win Phone and WebOS are making. Some profit is better than no profit. Do you think car makers should only make high margin luxury cars?
99% of vlc users will never see that. Hiding the extra features is better than not having them. It lets you have a clear interface 99% of the time, but still support all that extra stuff.

Let's see some evidence for that fact.
A single mother making 60k has a lot more money than a single mother making minimum wage even after the latter gets her foodstamps.
Use sqllite. If you need a real DB install it on a linux/BSD box. No need for the frontend to run on the same machine as the DB.
Honestly what is wrong with a little wealth redistribution?

They have this stuff called insulation now, you really should check it out.
2 things:
1. You need more ram
2. you forgot shmall, which you are probably not hitting with so little ram.
No need to point out the obvious.
Lots of companies for one reason or another do though, quite often vendor is a top down decision.
Don't run Postgres on Windows. That would be mindbogglingly stupid.
What a rational, well argued, and sophisticated comment that adds immense value to the conversation at hand.

What installer?
They have rpms and debs, what more could you want?

So why not make the older behavior optional, rather than continuing this broken functionality?
Perry. That nimrod thinks TX schools teach creationism. Which would be illegal if true. He sure is trying to get rid of all education.
Except for when it does not. Then it is impossible to troubleshoot because it was expected to just work.

We already do by giving them copyrights that others can inherit. To avoid the whole messy situation lets just get rid of copyright.

Magic is not an available option. Until coal can make such a reduction in work force theorizing about it is worthless.
You are also ignoring the costs of human health damage from coal emissions.
