Ok you got me there:P Just because I never heard of them does not mean it's nonexistent (was young, drank a lot). Pink == Taligent though, so we're still at 2;)
You know there are programs to evade those particular programs from the kernel. And they are pretty good at that. Now a VM outside your OS might be detectable (nothing installed on your computer isn't), but it may be harder than to run that latest "vista-running-inside-vm-detector-by-microsoft" thingie. But hey! maybe I'm wrong and rootkits are still the way to go:)
This only means that the MacPro is not meant for you. Check out the iMac in the second alley to your left. Different needs, different products, if you want that Dell, go ahead. Please come again.
MySQL, Apache, SSL (including ssh) and many other products were prone to viruses (or virii) and many worms were released for those, infecting millions of servers (both *bsd and linux) in the past. Now the fact that you use your linux as a desktop does not mean any other use of the OS wasn't exploited. You're just firewalling correctly and not installing MySQL...
Backward compatibility kills a lot these days, don't you think? Time to move forward with OpenGL, and that's what they did mostly for 2.0. Hope it doesn't stop in mid-run as 1.x did before...
More precisely, to increase their investissor's stock value. Not necessarly by making money, but flirting with Xen is probably not in their interest or goals right now. Too bad.
You, my friend, have just ruined the best use of that old joke by my friend SnowZero. I _was_ laughing, you know. Now please apologize to the entire non-troll serious slashdot crowd and go back to your room to meditate on ellipsis humor and sous-entendus.
Exactly. Types are clubbersome in many ways. They should be constrainted (this variable must represent some kind of numbers), but not defined (this is a floating point between -2^64 and 2^64), to ease learning and coding a lot. Check ruby for more example of what I mean (duck typing). I never learn ObjC, even less Forwarding so that may be the same thing.
I'm happy to see you didn't think out of the box, dude, but to me annoy pirate and do not annoy non-pirate is what it should do, calling home and giving control to someone else is out of my point, though unexcusable. I didn't say that microsoft has the right for it, and I certainly don't approve that.
Actually, if you have a legit version of windows, i don't see how WGA annoys you that much. I've got mine at work and didn't see a single popup since the day I installed it. I installed it at home illegally (sshhhh!) and it doesn't stop poking me around. To me it does what it should.
Sorry, but as a guy who did a couple of programming contests (both ACM and some homebrewed), and can largely be considered as someone who _can_ code faster than average, I must say you're wrong. It is not the case of most of the people who participate in these contests because we often need a better preparation and better structure so that we can code faster, we are normally more intellect and can see the need to reuse (instead of most people on just are not smart enough to design good in the first place, and they are numerous).
And believe me, my friend, we are patient. It takes a lot of patience first to just practice on those contests. And it's not because you can code faster on certain occasion (this bug needs to be fixed before tomorrow morning) that you MUST do it everytime (ok I'll hack it up and comment it all tomorrow during the day).

I don't see why we should define self-awareness when cyc, used by the pentagon to predict possible terrorist scenarios ([1]), has already asked "am i human?" ([2] at bottom and [3]). How aware is he?
Problem is, self-awareness may lead to self-questioning, which may in turn come to redefinition of the goals. If we permit to the robots to redesign (read recode) even parts of their system, they may well see a way we didn't think of to bypass their motivation systems. If we don't permit them to redesign parts of themselves, AI cannot evolve, which defeats the main purpose of have self-awareness. IMHO

Add to that the fact that they don't delay/cancel announced features, unlike that generic brand.

That's the stupidest combination I've ever heard in my life! The kind of thing an idiot would have on his luggage!

Win 3.11 was ok. Make that 1995. I don't know why, everytime I say that year, I shiver.
I'm a meatbag, you insensitive clod.
The very first one, lost in the annales of another slashdot...

Are You Blatently Asking Basic Trolling Use...?
For great justice!
I personally like the CCux video, though I'm still not sure how I should pronounce it...
In fact, there was no need for a summary since the title was enough :D
