A plankton BOOM is a carbon sink, because the plankton mass is growing. Besides that, other people already pointed that some of the mass of dead plankton take a long time off the athmosphe.
Except this really has nothing to do with open source. MS offers a computing cloud, and they offer various options on the computing cloud because they want to make money.
Are you kidding? MS never chooses to simply "make money" on a market. Every market they enter they are only interested in supporting their other monopolies. If that makes them lose money on that maket, well, life is tough...
The current anouncement could very well be an exception, and a huge one. Of course, it could also be a trap.
I'm talking about when I see someone walk in with a laptop bag. Okay. They pull out an iPad. Okay. They pull out a keyboard. Then a mouse. Hmm.
Belive it or not, that combo is still better than an equivalent laptop. It is certainly lighter than any laptop with the same screen size, the battery lasts longer and the keyboard may quite well be more confortable.
Laptop manufacturers are completely out of orbit recently. But things are changing, and there are already laptops with specs equivalent to tablets appearing out there.
So, all of sudden, the entire tech world has decided that tablets are the future and desktop & mobile UIs will converge, even though historically it is the fact that they ended up being fundamentally different what made them succeed..
Oh, but this time they are doing their old mistake exactly backwards. Instead of putting a dektop inteface on the tablets, they are putting a tablet interface on the desktops. That may very well ensure that tablets will be the future... Or maybe people will see through it and ditch Microsft... Nah, tablets are the future.
Well, you can't just remove the signature check from the bootloader, since that would invalidate the bottloader's signature. You'll have to go all the way through the $99 validation system to write a bootloader that doesn't check the kernel's signature, then anybody could use it.
Now, the good news is that unless they got some NSA level of competency on crypto to create something completely unheard of, there is no way to revoke your key after you create that bootloader above. You see, for anticompetitive reasons they require the system to hold only one key. If you have a signed bootloader, it will be signed by The One True Key, and if they revoke something, that will be The One True Key, and if they do that, they'll also blacklist Windows and everybody else.
Yes, I also think they'll act, too bad they didn't do anything yet. If they wait too much, whatever they do won't make any difference. What are they waiting for?
Well, can, of course, think that that label implies that the machine meets the specification for that version of Windows, as everybody has the right to be wrong.
A small correction, but you can't add a key. You can at most replace it. UEFI will only support one key, as obviously, if one could add keys to it, manufacturers would add every reasonable key out there, and MS wouldn't have a monopoly on it.
You can't come along with a theory that can only be taken seriously if and only if you completely toss out entire scientific disciplines that have a trivial proof showing your theory must be wrong.
Yes, you can. When you have tons of evidence clearly pointing your way, and no evidence whatsoever poining into the direction supported by those entire scientific disciplines, your way is quite certainly right, and those disciplines, wrong.
Rsync is exactly what the poster wants, but he'll have to put it inside an script that delete the files after they are uploaded. The script can be something like this:
Yes, they say that. At the same time, it is hard to expect to be able to open lots of tabs in a browser running in a computer with 256MB or RAM.
You'll get an easier life with a spreadsheet or a word processor. It does probably run well most of the games available on Debian (and is overkill for both GCompris and Childsplay, that are what they'are probably testing), and plays high-definition video, like they say.
Well, normaly the philosophy that succeds is idealist, not pragmatic. That happens because our understanding of things is normaly smaller than our estimations of it, and the pragmatic optimum turns out to be conservative.
Thus, be an idealist. That's the best pragmatic choice.

That argument would hold if MS didn't have a monopoly on operational systems. But it does, thus all those paragraphs are moot.
Well, you should ask the oppinion of Nokia shareholders.

The problem is that this small builder will have to pay the retail price for Windows, while the certified OEMs are paying something near $15.
Well, can, of course, think that that label implies that the machine meets the specification for that version of Windows, as everybody has the right to be wrong.

And you (or the DRM owner, peasant) verify that it is the correct update just how?
Microsoft requires that UEFI machines hold only one key. If they revoke one key, well, that is the only one...
Flame spreads slowly*, and thus is quite hard to detect.
* Maybe "slowly" is an understatement. The virus seems to spread only when ordered to.
Volcanos don't spit C14.

No, rsync does not do that by default.
Rsync is exactly what the poster wants, but he'll have to put it inside an script that delete the files after they are uploaded. The script can be something like this:
find -iname "*.jpeg" -exec rsync '{}' machine:remote/dir ';' -exec rm '{}' ';'
Just put that (at second plane, with output redirect to some file) at the on-connect script at his machine, and he's done.
You left out the military drones and ICBMs.
Take a look at the old /. articles, you'll see lots of news about US police (and imigration) forces wanting to use those things.
A terrorist attack using civilian armed drones looks inevitable.
Yes, they say that. At the same time, it is hard to expect to be able to open lots of tabs in a browser running in a computer with 256MB or RAM.

Yes, I am. It takes somebody very smart to suceed on politics.
No, Mendel only discovered part of it. The most important bit is recombination, and I have no idea who was the first one to get this.
And do you belive the Earth is 10k years old? TFA was not about "religion" in general.
