Yes, Successful science to the public means products of those basic, fundimental discoveries. That is pretty much the whole point of the post. Number ten thrown in for kicks. No one in the public would really care until something made use of that, like better speach recongintion or an iPhone that drove your 1995 Honda civic.
Sucessful Science:
1) Flying cars.
2) Condos on the Moon
3) Ice cream that doesn't melt
4) Virtual reality
5) Interstellar space travel
6) Cold Fusion
7) Star Trek Replicators
8) The End of Poverty
9) An everlasting Gobstopper 10) Proof that P = NP
Not every god, is all powerful like the Judeo-Christian God. The greek/romans/norse all had domain over some part of the world, but not everything. If I were the sun god, I'd want people to devote themselves to me, rather than the stupid rain god, tree god, or god of ugly t-shirts.
How about your one and only son - a one of a kind human God hybrid the only one to ever be born of a virgin - would that be rare enough? He's fully your son, so everyone trying to kill him could be subject to either his or your wrath in an second.
Speaking for myself, several. Have you tried buying organs from people under forty? They've got like dreams and aspirations to use those things, and haven't quite fallen into the level of required desperation. So you do what you can to keep your average age under 60, but shit happens.
Left it in my coat pocket? Heck no, I was a college kid back then. It was the end of the school year, and I was pretty much broke. That $10 was enough to buy food for two weeks!
I think LostCluster was suggesting a reason why the movie companies were offering those particular movies on facebook, rather than a more general motive for the creation of sequels of movies.
I actually cashed out $10 worth of cybergold, back in 1998. That was the minimum amount you could cash in, never got more than 10 cybergold cents after that. Originally they offered points for surveys and adviews, but after I cashed out it was changed to more of a rewards program for shopping at certain sites and incentive to apply for credit cards.
Yeah, If I were a Corperate executive important enough to merit a regular mention in press releases on earnings, I'd totally change my name to "Record Profits" .
As far as I'm concerned I think the users decrying the MS Shills are actually the same pearson/people as the shills. They're just having fun waging a mock battle with themselves in front of everyone.
tehcyder is correct. Again, look at gang violence. You as a gang member have to assume that everyone in the rival gang is packing heat. If you're going on their turf, the bystanding neighbors are likely to also have guns and not be sympothetic to an outsider coming in shooting.
Well, here's the thing: having a gun in an urban setting does not decrease the likely hood that people will shoot you. A conceled carry will not prevent random violence typical of urban settings.
All gangs have guns. All gangs know all other gangs have guns. All gangs use their guns on other gangs, knowing full well that they have guns.
So they use their guns to surprise the other gangs when they will be less likely to strike back immideatly. Tactics such as drive by shootings and other psuedo gurrila warfare accomplish this.
If an individual wants to victumize another and assumes the other individual does not have a gun, they can reasonable assume they can do what ever they want in the short term. or
If an individual wants to victumize another and assumes the other individual does have a gun, they know they have to kill/injure the person to prevent them from effectively fireing back before they can do whatever they want.
So as long as the primary crime the individual wants to commit is not murder, I think you are better off with them assuming that you do not have a weapon.
While those you listed do a lot of pro Microsoft posts, I have to wonder about this one. He listed all of the features that they actually removed from NTFS and said that they still support them, either he screwed up or he's not a Microsoft shill.
Just as those who doubt humans are causing global warming, because its a conspiracy of socialist to screw them over somehow*. Just as those who doubt evolution, because its just a theory and not a fact like gravity.
* ( never really understood that one, so its tought to parody).
Anything that removes potential security flaws from android is a double edged sword. Its many of those flaws that allow us to get root and install custom roms.
They do hold a primary. No one is seriously running a campaign against the president. The party of the president rarely does, although in 1992, Pat Buchanan tried to knock off GHW Bush. And Ronald Reagan tried it against Ford in 1976.
The Linux kernel for specific changes to the TCP/IP Stack that we needed to work with some one else's brain dead equipment. Mysql to improve performance for our use case Eclipse to work around a specific bug with writing to Samba shares ( could have just found/ fixed it in Samba, but it was eaiser to distribute a working Eclipse internally than Samba) Kopete to deal with a less than perfectly relilable internet connection Several third party libraries to improve performance on x86_64.
Earlier in my career:
Ported Gnash to Dos. Ported Perl to ROM DOS.
Open Office ( really the best version is LibreOffice now), is working just fine for my buisness. Of course, everyone's requirements are different, but I'm not sure what doesn't work for people as we apparently don't use that. The really disapointing part of the OO.org suite is ODF. I really wished they had done a better job designing that.
No, it was the lack of quality in the second tier/ shareware market that drove opensource. I can't even count how many times was I and my company burned by Shitacular software that we bought because it was less than the market leader. Not to mention all of the times where we bought something that almost worked but was just ever-so-slightly off. With open source, we can fix that stuff up while it costs nothing to preview all of the features.

Hey, I'm required to *be* at work. Anything more is at my discretion.

Uhm, Hot grits and the horse you road in on, you Emac on windows viewing AOL using poopy pants!
Is that better?
Unfortunately I only troll at a 2nd grade level.

For a while I thought that only CmdrTaco was a living human, and the rest were AI's modeled after hyperactive drunks.
No, the Editors are hyperactive drunks that modeled their lives after AI, the movie. Which explains all the Haley Joel Osment references around here.

Is the big bang science? Or politics because we can't reproduce it?
Yes, Yes I/We do. I've tweaked:
The Linux kernel for specific changes to the TCP/IP Stack that we needed to work with some one else's brain dead equipment.
Mysql to improve performance for our use case
Eclipse to work around a specific bug with writing to Samba shares ( could have just found/ fixed it in Samba, but it was eaiser to distribute a working Eclipse internally than Samba)

It only makes sense to talk about ENTERPRISE solutions when the whole topic is the cost of a MS ENTERPRISE solution.
This is the thread condensed:
1) PHP Is not an enterprise solution use MS!
2) MS Is expensive
3) But not if you use it as a non enterprise solution!
Those are all either
A) Time Limited
or
B) Feature reduced
Some of them both. It really is the same business model as a crack dealer.
