I pitty you. What is it that enrages you so much? Is it people that have different views than yourself and that even dare to express them? Is it people living their freedom of choice?
I always thought Americans had every right to be proud of their constitution since it gives everyone freedom and makes the US one of the most free countries. Having to read comments like yours really makes me wonder if people like you actually understand what they are proud of. You know, having the right to have an oppinion and express it doesn't mean everyone has to agree with *you*. Get it?
You might be right about the hospitals, fleet cars are usually Audi etc.
But this deal is Suse/IBM. As far as I got it from following the discussion, the question was IBM/SuSE or Something/Microsoft. There is still a lot of money going to IBM. Your suggestion might be right if you look at SuSE vs. for example RedHat. Here, the preference would clearly be SuSE probably not only because SuSE's headquarters are only a couple of hours drive away from München (Munich).

Where did the problems come from. Was it really the logic of the web application or was it the html/javascript/anyothermessyouliketoputinyourwebs ites part that caused the problems? If you used simple HTML and maybe css for the displaying code, there is not much higher complexity in the development. In short, stick to standards and it usually works.

That is of course true. Hopefully the other players are worried about later.

This is an assumption. There are efficient toolkits that allow write once run anywhere, either through a VM like JAVA or through recompilation. Develoment for a highly specialized but basically dumb application should not be much harder/more expensive using these instead of WinAPI.
Well, maybe if some foreign Country would have hacked the voting system, the US now had a decent president with a minimum of brains.
There is always two sides to every story.
If you put all platform decision crazyness aside. There still remains a problem that's much larger than checking signatures and stuff. How do voters get their keys and how are they verified? With cryptography, key exchange is still a major issue that holds infrastructure and logistics problems that are much harder to tackle than implementing algorithms. Is there already the required PKI available to every participating American that enables secure key validation and distribution?

So you go out and buy an Exchange Server License? Wow.
Yeah right and since then, McD serves coffee that's not hot enough, just because some idiots are unable to take proper care.
We recently got a starbucks outlet in our city (in Germany). I went there to try it out and I got a luke warm coffee. It tasted ok but I prefere my coffee hot. Coffee should be made with nearly boiling water, period. And now everybody's coffe experience is destroyed because of some morons that have to drink hot beverages in their cars?
What's next? Will those electrical hot water makers only produce hot water with max 60C just because there are people that usually spill the hot water over themselves? Hopefully not.
Seriously. If I drink hot beverages in a car, it's my responsibility to take proper care. One could argue that drinking hot beverages in a car shouldn't be done at all since it destracts you from traffic.
And by the way, if Mc Donnalds serverd cold coffe and cold burgers, all the burns were gone. Now that's something to fight for, isn't it?
I want my coffe hot! If I spill it and get burned it's my fault, period.
From what I read about the new law, this is only the first step. It implements regulations agreed upon by the European Union and the WIPO. That means, other european countries will soon implement similar laws.
Additionally in Germany there will be a follow up they call "second basket" which will restrict the rights of consumers even more.
Of course the lobbying efforts of the music and film industry will go in a second round, too. From what I can tell our brainwashed politicians believe every word of the constant whining of the music industry speakers which means, those restrictions will probably go through as well. Both major parties are in favour of it and only the rather small liberal party (FDP) is against it as they were with the first. I don't think they'll make a difference though, which is really sad.

Maybe you should hang yourself. Life is obviously too complex for you.
please explain your statement. Exactly why am I an idiot?
