You may joke about number 2, but read Blind Man's Bluff. It describes a US run operation in which we sent a submarine into a Soviet (Communist at the time) harbor to put taps on their underwater cables.
The article misses an important point; When a user installs an application (as they have to do, in cases such as Nero or iTunes when the app doesn't come preinstalled) the user already knows what it does. So when Grandma installs Nero, she knows that it will put her brand new pictures on that newfangled cd device.
Did you read the article? Do you truly understand whats going on?
Many clients support the "style of distributed trackerless system". However, BitComent does not recognize the private flag in the torrent. When the private flag is on, it means that the client must turn off the "style of distributed trackerless system" feature of that torrent; thus only users conencted to that tracker can download.
Its not about supporting the DHT feature, its about supporting the ability to turn it off.
Either way, you can wave goodbye to your money.
You should say goodbye to it now, cause you never know when it'll all leave... makes it kind of hard to wave goodbye, don't you think?
There is a reason for the electoral college. The popular vote would mean presidents campaigning only in certain states (California, Texas, New York, etc.) and leaving the rest to read about the candidate's planks in the newspaper.
If you were running (since this is slashdot) a huge amount of servers, for example. You're upgrading all of the servers and this is taking you a lot of time And all of a sudden, the company has to cut jobs. Are they going to cut yours in the middle of doing this mission critical task? Obviously not. Many voted for Bush because they believed that Kerry was too retarted to finish what Bush had started.
Wasn't it Intel who decided that they were too good for nVidia's nForce mobo? And didn't people say that nVidia would go down for choosing AMD over Intel in this market? (correct me if I'm wrong, as I probably am)
I never said it wasn't major. I'm saying that you can't rely on statistics like this. Google is major, but EVERY SINGLE INTERNET USER IN THE WORLD doesn't use google. (It maybe very close, but EVERYONE?) And since there are people who don't use Google, even their statistcs will be off in either direction. Margin of error. Until someone finds out what every single internet user in the world is using as a webbrowser, non of these statistcs can really be trusted.
Google still isn't major. I know people who are using yahoo or alltheweb or whatever for their searches. Truth is, no one can really tell us what the exact percentage that Firefox or Internet Explorer market share has gone up. Companies can bombard us with statistics, but no one knows what everyone is using. Theres simply too many sites.
I understand your point, but I'm trying to make one of my own as well: Each site can only tell us about THEIR visitors. To say "Oh everyone on the internet searches for britney spears using a command line based webbrowser" is impossible to say.
Unfortunatly, your non-techy websites don't represnet the entire web. Perhaps if you gave us a link, we could judge better. From my point of view, many "average" users are switching to Firefox. My mother and father (no, I don't live with them) have recently switched to Firefox on my suggestion and have thanked me for that suggestion. So, from my usage viewpoint, Forefox usage increased 100%.
Its all relative.
I thought you could use those resourceful things anywhere...;)

But on the serious side, what about WiFi on airplanes? I heard that was supposed to come out soon on Boeing planes...
There are others out there as well which do the same thing. I've never tried that one, but I'll dl it in a while. There is a list here and also here of others which aid in installing Apache, PHP, mySQL, Perl, etc (some also install tools such as phpMyAdmin, a bulletin board service and others go as far to include a mail service and FTP servers). I don't believe that the DeveloperSide.NET suite is listed there, but it looks like a good application as well.
You could always pick up something like PHP Triad, which installs Apache, PHP, mySQL, etc... php Triad... I use it, and it works rather well just as a server to try on a home network
In calling new players an "iPod Killer" or an "iPod mini Killer", people searching for a new hdd based MP3 player on google (assuming they search something like "iPod review" or something similar), companies are ensuring that their device is right up there along with the iPod. In a way, its marketing for the device by making sure that the device finds its way into the hands of potential iPod buyers.

Looks like Section 2 of that document to be specific.
Yea he could go "emerge world" I mean, explore the world ...

Gives new meaning to "We are the Microsoft. Resistance is futile", doesn't it?
Perhaps this is where closed source vendors (read: Microsoft) will lead the adoption of Sender-ID.

And rely on shaky Alchol 120% emulation? Or just not play the game at all?
People on radio play it like it is.
