Also, if the whole world becomes prosperous where are you going to get cheap oil, coffee, and tea from?
When you ask rhetorical questions, it's a good idea to make sure that what you're implying is correct. Otherwise, you insult our intelligence.
It's very simple to figure out how to get cheap crops without cheap labor. You use techniques that require less labor. That's how Americans are able to grow cheap corn and wheat. I suppose when robots start farming, things will get even cheaper. I won't mind paying less.
Learn to think instead of just feel and you'll be a lot less likely to make mistakes like that.
I understand what you're saying, but this is not good and can't really be turned into something good. In combination with laws that are less (or not) restrictive on police actions, this would have all the drawbacks but none of the benefits. After all, we need to do everything in our power to stop terrorists, right ? Forget that "power corrupts" hogwash and give us more power to fight terrorism.
This is a lot like security bugs in computer programs where two conditions that weren't expected happen and suddenly the attacker has a lot more power than you do.
dspeyer said that Al Qaeda was kept in check by Hussein, so the removal of Hussein did not fulfill the US goal of removing supporters of Al Qaeda.
dspeyer was speculating on the reasoning before acting of the US, not the side benefits of acting. So, any refutations must deal with the reasoning and not the side benefits. Any refutations that deal with side benefits are straw man arguments.
HMA2000 pointed out certain side benefits of the US removal of Hussein. He either made a straw man argument or implied that the US acted on the reasoning that oppressors should be removed.
ndpatel assumed that HMA2000 wasn't making a straw man argument and showed counterexamples to prove that removing oppressors wasn't a principle of US decisionmaking.
So, either HMA2000 made a straw man argument or the US does not use the principle that HMA2000 said it does.
With communication rates at the speed of light, the components of *your* compter can be distributed world wide.
Electrons travel close to the speed of light anyway. The reason they can't go long distances is because of wire resistance.
They will be able to communicate at the same rate as if they were a few inches away on a standard "electrical" bus.
Distance does not affect data rate. One of the reasons you make distances shorter in computer chips and computer systems is to reduce the lag, not increase the data rate. Because the speed of light and the speed of electricity are about the same, this will still be a factor.
1) It's not the Google cache (look at the host), it's more a New York Times' affiliate link. 2) Wasting my time is something that annoys me. Things that annoy me lead me to complain.
Just thought I'd explain why I don't (I can, but that's my decision, not yours) stop complaining. You can talk all you want about how wrong or stupid or lazy I am for not registering, and I can just ignore your useless, trollish moralizing.
It's about the same as if someone produced a toothpaste branded "Colgata". When Colgate brought a lawsuit, it wouldn't be claiming that the person couldn't make toothpaste (it wouldn't be an intellectual property claim). Colgate would claim that it makes toothpaste also and that "Colgata" is similar enough to its trademark that it would confuse people into thinking that "Colgata" is made by Colgate. And how similar it is is irrelevant; if "Colgata" was a licorice-flavored toothpaste that was glowing green, it would still be a toothpaste.
It's not that difficult to understand the difference between patents (what you think the case is about), copyrights, and trademarks (what the case is actually about). Make the effort.
The rich might not care. The poor certainly will when they reach retirement or medical catastrophe. If a poor person notices their pennies turn to dust when they save them for a rainy day, they have less incentive to save them. When they need them, they're pretty screwed.
Plus, why should anyone work to manufacture or perform labor in exchange for the soon-to-be-worthless money ? What are you going to buy with money that no one will accept ?
If it utilizes features that the new hardware introduces and the old protocol doesn't, then it will run more efficiently (or with better features) than the old protocol.
It's kind of the same reason that some projects don't care about backward-compatibility because they get the benefit of a lot less kruft.
TTL is based on the number of machines a packet goes through, not how long it takes timewise. A bongo link would only add one more machine for a packet to go through, at the most.
Congratulations ! You're the hundredth poster to say that exact same thing ! You get a FREE 24-hour access to the Slashdot website ! Useful for doing such things as reading prior posts, reading prior posts, and (I'm not sure if this was mentioned already, but it's a good idea) reading prior posts.
Then Be, Palm, or Yellowtab (the developers of Zeta, which is essentially BeOS 6) can sue them if they want to. I don't see that happening and I doubt it will.
Those organizations can speak for themselves and don't need your help.
Slashdot is a news site by the way, not a BSA site.
Inflation itself is a tax. A lot of people hold a lot of dollars. When those dollars are worth less a year from now, the value doesn't just disappear; it gets transferred to the government when the Federal Reserve prints new money (creating the inflation). So either way people lose monetary value to reduce the national debt and deficit, either through the front door (taxes) or through the back (inflation).
Inflation is not the magic cure-all you seem to make it out to be.
And if you think there is a freedom of speech on the internet you are kidding yourself into believing information doesnt get moderated.
Freedom of speech doesn't mean that others have to host what you say on their servers. It doesn't mean that the moderators have to leave you alone. It means you can set up your own server and write whatever you want. Try doing that with TV.

Watching won't do much when it happens, because by that time, you'll have people used to seeing it on the first groups. When the fourth-to-last group gets it, eventually people will get used to that and it won't be much of a stretch to apply it to the third group. Repeat for all remaining steps.
They don't insist on a one-button mouse, they just sell them. All you have to do is hook up any multiple-button USB mouse and it works just fine. Context menus easily come up with a right-click, just like in Windows.
I do agree that they should have multiple workspaces, though. I believe there are workaround programs, though; I don't know how effective they are, though.
Ummm...the license doesn't make a piece of software run at all, much less run everywhere. And source in languages like C always needs little #ifdefs to make it work in different environments.
Most mice with scroll wheels use the scroll wheel as the middle mouse button (just press down on it). Most of the mice I see on Windows machines are this type of mouse.

He did address the argument.

ndpatel's refutation of HMA2000 was successful.
Any good encryption (like SSL) with spoofed MAC addresses would stop you from being able to read much or link transmissions to specific people.

I never said anything about how strong the trademark was. I said it was a trademark, rather than patent, case.
I agree with you that "mythic" is a bit widespread.

So, in some cases, newer protocols are better.
No, he said for those who "needed" them. So, even if companies had uses for them, if they didn't need them, they didn't buy them.

"Using what?"
Probably router and nameserver configurations.
Why not just make everything delegation-only instead of having to add new ones in the future ?
