Apple gives out security fixes for free. Their "service packs" are typically large feature upgrades, whereas Microsoft service packs are just a convenient way of applying all their security patches at once.
Personally, I'm a fan of making sure that someone who's so obviously antisocial is unable to continue growing up, older, or anything except mold and worms.
This one is up for argument (even though I agree that it should be fair.)
What is more relevant: How about someone who quotes some words in a song in a review, or a snipped of it? They're profiting from it by selling their article, but it's still well under the umbrella of fair use.
Commercial entities are still entitled to fair use.
Which means that it's your job to teach your kid to distinguish right from your in your stead. It's hard, and it takes commitment, being consistent, and paying attention to who your kid's friends are, what they're doing, what they think, and so on, but that's called "parenting". We contemplate these laws because parents think it's too much work to worry about what their kids are doing, and we live in a society where responsibility is routinely laid on inanimate objects (alcohol, guns, video games, drugs, etc.) to deflect it from the real perpetrators (the lazy, amoral, immoral, criminal, etc.)

You aren't part of this target market. The guy is specifically in charge of improving shutdown, etc. for MOBILE computing users (tablets, notebooks, etc.). But you'd have to RTFA to get that. For desktops and workstations, choice is less important as the machine is rarely intentionally without power.
I'm pretty sure people could recognize a printer named "reusable" vs. "permanent". If the paper is less than 10x the price of normal paper, then you're set. You just have two "recycle" bins, one for regular paper, one for reusable paper. You can then count how many times the reusable paper is used, maybe mark it permanently somehow. Not terribly hard, and office people can get used to all kinds of stupid processes (you put the blue paper in the pink envelope, and the white paper in the blue envelope, then you send Betty in accounting 3 electronic copies of the PDF, etc.), this is a simple, non-stupid process.
the Internet is meant to enable communication. Communication requires common standards. When you start including uncommon things (Unicode), then you end up breaking the communication.
Didn't notice that the character's bust up top gets highlighted in the shops if they're able to equip that item? Took me a few switches until I saw that;) Makes buying much easier. Only problem is if you need to see what license you want to get due to availability of equipment. I've gotten some relatively useless licenses because I didn't know what equipment was coming up. Oh well. Just a little more grinding.
The Thunderbird? Man, those P4's were even better. I've got a pair of P4 based Xeon's in a workstation... I have to close the heat register in that room otherwise it gets too warm.
Nor should you. Look at the second graph down. CO2 is almost linearly more soluble in a colder liquid than a warmer one. It has nothing to do with the absolutely minute volumetric changes in a liquid from those relatively minor temperature changes. Carbon Dioxides actually DOES "magically" leak OUT of beer as it gets warmer, because it's less able to stay dissolved.
Looks like they let some idiots have mod points again. I'd have modded it down, but no one would have known why. C'est la vie.

Where do you live? Because Comcast costs $60 for just internet, and that's only around 3mbps if you're lucky.
Well, if I pay the damages, then no one that copied the music from me should have to pay, right? If they're pulling all the future possible damages out of one person, it stands to reason that the damage has been done and reparations have been made, so they don't have any right to sue anyone over that song in the future because it's possible/probable that it came from a source that's already paid damages. Right?
What I've ended up doing in that situation is making the hub room central, and then going up with all the feeds, and dropping them down the walls from the attic. It's a much longer cable run than you'd need if you came up through the floor, but it's the only way to do it without ripping out all the drywall and such. Ethernet cabling is low voltage, so you don't need junction boxes or anything even. It's not easy as the GP implies, but it's not necessarily as difficult as you imply, either. Just a few topper studs to drill through, and it's done.
Consoles can tune games a LOT more than PC's, because the hardware is completely standard. They can do tricks and optimizations with rendering and such that you couldn't reliably expect to work on Joe Blow's random PC. The console still isn't out of the game.
Besides, the video card you can buy costs as much as a whole PS3. The PS3 is still better bang for your gaming buck. Either way, I'm ok with my Go7600 in my laptop and I'm gonna get a Wii, so y'all can go do your own thing when posturing about games.
No, what's poor use of grammar is your overuse of parentheses, not to mention the fact that you didn't close some of them. You should rearrange your sentence if you feel the need to use that many sets of parentheses. It makes it hard to understand what you're getting at.
By the way, words that are emphasized should really be in bold, not in quotes, because quotes would imply that I was quoting you or someone else, and that was not my intent.
You should really go to the local community college and take a few writing courses before you attempt that paper you spoke of in your initial post. It won't hurt.
$28K per terabyte? I certainly hope that's in some sort of massive RAID that has 15 copies of the data across the continent at any given time. Or transfers at the speed of RAM.

I think you meant "run as" is more equivalent to "sudo", not "su". su actually changes to a shell running as a different user.
Windows has NOT had this technology for a long time.
I wish I had mod points. Is there a "So painfully obvious it hurts" tag?

There, fixed that for ya...
So you're saying that car analogies drive you up the wall?
You still can't get around the fact that GTK is a horrid, ancient, creaky toolkit that is extensible not by design, but by elbow grease and hacks.

Meh. The two of them go together pretty well for me. We always look at porn together.
It was mostly a joke at having that much crypto running, for no really good reason. Do you also drive an M1 Abrams to the store to pick up milk?
Gotta keep that porn safe, eh?
