I like what I do (programming) and have loved it since I first discovered computers in 1970. It has never grown old and I would enjoy continuing to do it even if I didn't have to.
This farmer is trying to control the use of land he doesn't own. Put up a Faraday Fence if he's that worried, but he can't be allowed to dictate land usage on what isn't even his property.
But given how Socialist they are over there, someone might even fall for it.
Of course this is the only possible common sense outcome, since in the alternative an opposite ruling would have banned hyperlinks altogether. This is because you never know what's on the other end of a link since the author of that page can change it at any time.
Btw, I don't type in text links from articles. I cut & paste them, which is often necessary on stupid blog sites that break the link across lines and only include the first line as the clickable (and incomplete) hyperlink.
I doubt you could call it effective when it would still be tied down by battery life. That could be remedied by plugging it in, but if you have a computer, it seems it would just make more sense to stream from the computer than the iPod.
Your comment makes sense, until the moment you want to take a movie you own over to a friend's house to watch.
Can anybody give real life examples where the CPU multi-threading brings anything?
Multi-threading per core helps with video encoding. I saw benchmarks just today at http://www.anandtech.com/weblog/showpost.aspx?i=642 showing the results of the same processors run against the same tasks with and without HT enabled. How many thousand more examples do you need to see?
Sun, if this is the best you can do -- 4 cores, 8 threads, arriving at 45nm just as everyone else is getting to 32nm -- just give it up now instead of asking us to watch a slow, agonizing, death.
So do you use the new ATI Eyefinity capable cards and drivers to run it? Curious how this announcement comes out just a couple days after that announcement.
If my Tweets do belong to me, then this can be proven in exactly one way. If my Tweets belong to me than I should have the ability at any time to take them all down and they will not be seen again on Twitter unless I retype them all back in -- 140 characters at a time.
When that happens then I'll say that they've told the truth.
Until that happens, they don't really belong to me.
So was it a single RV870 card, or an X2 card to drive all of that? Nobody else seems to be asking or speculating on it. And how much display memory? 2GB or >2GB? Either way it's a spectacular achievement.
When you first read this you get the insane idea that somehow the bacteria render the radioactivity into non-radioactive substances. I actually read an SF story long ago where bacteria did exactly that. This looks to be just as radioactive afterwards as before, and not what the article implies.
So the patent, and problem, is with associating a piece of data with multiple categories. Wouldn't a 1-to-many relationship in an RDBMS be exactly that - rendering any such ridiculous patent moot due to prior art? Or is every database designer and user about to get sued by these clowns?
Apple probably doesn't like it because it will let you PEEK and POKE to the first 64KB of your iPhone's memory, and that's where Steve Jobs hides all of his best ideas.

Or...
...a PC with a couple ATI X2 graphics cards in a CrossFire setup.
But does it run Crysis?
And here I was thinking on how Massachusetts is our most liberal state, and Liberals as a rule are for privacy and totally against domestic spying.

I used to think that Britain was a pretty neat place to live. No more!
If a large number of drivers put in these cameras, where is the wireless bandwidth to support all of them?
In fact, how are you paying for this bandwidth now? Monthly fees?
Not if you put a PostIt note over it while you're driving.

So is this something that just came out in the final standard yesterday that all of the pre-standard devices don't implement properly, if at all?
And just how many pre-standard "n" products will this now break?

No problems at all, until it sucks the hemoglobin right out of your blood!

Just use all that newly empty space in your wallet to have a place to fit everything else that you need.

With apologies to D.B. Story, from whom I've blatantly stolen this:
Fourth Law: A robot will perform the duties for which it has been designed and built, as long as this does not conflict with previous laws.
Apple probably doesn't like it because it will let you PEEK and POKE to the first 64KB of your iPhone's memory, and that's where Steve Jobs hides all of his best ideas.
So now OS/X works just like Windows. Wow, what an advance.
We know what's best for you. We're making it just work. Now just sit back and drink your kool aid.
If they do then I'm skipping directly to: 12 - Power Consumption and Conclusions
