if we blow all out sunlight? what are you, simple? unless you invision the ENTIRE upper atmosphere coated in solar panels that's not going to happen for another few billion years.
the main problem with current solar panels is they are piss weak and expensive. the manufacture of the cells is also more toxic then just burning the same amount of coal.
you must come from the department of we are going to talk nonsense to divert attention away from our failings.
seriously think about your argument there.... I just purchased a $300 device and linux doesn't work on it... what am i going to ditch first, the $300 or the free os?
"Linux has far better hardware support than any other OS out there. "
bullshit, and you know it. wireless drivers, onboard drivers, 3d accerleration. they all SUCK to install on linux. not to mention specialised stuff like hdtv tuners.
just write your own drivers, GOD can't you do anything without being spoonhead you bonehead user! it's all your fault our OS can't handle many simple tasks
unless legislation is a 6'8" black dude (think office linebacker) who runs around smashing the thieves before they install the software, it won't prevent jack shit.
this kind of idiocy they thinks a law will prevent a crime infuriates me.
"how much they paid for EMI and then compared that to the market value of google"
big fucking deal? that has no bearing on my comment about google being a jnr burger compared to other older media companys
"Viacom most probably doesn't want to agree with google because it wants to compete with google in the long run, not only in video distribution but likely in search as well as a web destination portal."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... wait a minute... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
1998 called they want their "web portal" idea back!
i've never been fired from a single job in my life, and i've always left on good terms. that's how most people i know leave a job, purely because they simply had a better offer.
i have however had some managers who were pissed off i was leaving purely because i was leaving to make more money then them, and that i wouldn't be there to do their work all the time. that's their problem not mine though.
your probably right there are wierdo's like that out there, but TFA quotes 1/3 of IT people read private email... it's just crap there's no way it's that high.
the private files thing is total bullshit - we don't CARE abotu your dirty emails to your wife.
accessing old work system is true i think... i know i still have access to places i setup 7 years ago, i login once a year to look at the up time on the system. it's nothing more then me checking on how my creation is going, if i saw a problem i'd probably report it to my old boss with a suggested fix.
by the way, it's linux 2.4... 7 years up time on old salvaged hardware.
you haven't sovled anything there chum. cross platform apps are easy with languages like ruby and python - i know i've written them. one central point of data is nothing unquie to web apps either. and the application is NOT accessable from any computer - it requires download and install privigles, negating the ONE good thing about web apps.
what the hell is the benifit of web apps if they just shift dependancy from the OS to the browser? all their achieving is creating slower more limited applications.
if we head in the direction of download first web apps.... how is this better then just downloading a compiled app? certainly not cross platform - you need IE or FF to run it.
this does not work very well for the simple reason that once people realise they aren't geting a useful download from the torrent they are connected to, they cancel it and there goes your bandwidth. the net effect of this is you don't get ANY seeds and people avoid your torrent and you don't get much upstream bandwidth.
i love the discussions on fark, but it's ruined by the fact the website is a piece of shit that 9 times out of 10 will give you a database down or busy message. It's unusable.

i always laugh at people who suggest we all cover our roofs in solar panels - do they not fucking understand solar panels are made of GLASS?
the main problem with current solar panels is they are piss weak and expensive. the manufacture of the cells is also more toxic then just burning the same amount of coal.
that was my first thought as well, 4g what a rip
people keep flapping their gums about it but i don't see no proof bobby-joe

omg one isolated example - you totally proved me wrong!

i wouldn't be suprised if a big stick gets taken to youtube soon over it. no one is untouchable

besides, RIAA are only capable of bullying sick grandmothers and small children.
compared to media companys like viacom and emi, google and youtube are jnr burgers ok?

er, it was lastest 2.4 version when i left. can't vouch for it right now though

if they had WMD's the US is royally fucked. we've already seen how good they are at finding them.

how is this any different, it only works on IE or FF? you've just moved the platform from OS to browser and not gained a single thing, wiseass

stop just a minute and ask yourself honestly - would you defend this if it was MS? no? didn't think so. that does for the rest of you.

people just spam total crap in their metedata headers. searching based on it is a total fucking waste of time.
