Is this a stepping stone to Debian moving from Linux to BSD permanently? I'm trying to figure out if the FreeBSD licenses are more compatible with the Debian philosphy, or less.
It is only kernel. Debian Sid also has Hurd and NetBSD kernels.
As someone who works in a very specialized market (aerospace), I would be concerned that if Autodesk or any other developer of specialized software were not able to dictate the terms of their licensing, including licensing the individual rather than having the license apply to the copy of the media itself, then many specialized markets would fail.
They can also fail, when company abuses its monopoly and sets exorbitant prices. Autodesk is doing it for ages. Stop whining about people, who help those markets by reining unconvicted monopolist.
If I do have a quibble, it's that it requires a validated Windows. If I were Microsoft I'd throw this on automatic Windows Update and push it out to everyone not already running an anti-virus.
1. Does it detect Microsoft's spyware called WGA?
2. Pushing new products with software updates is very Microsoft style. They can't compete other way.
The problem with menu style systems is that it is not intuitive. There is resistance to the change because of 'menus are the way we are used to doing things' not necessarily the way things should be done. Putting features in front of the user rather than 3 to 4 deep in a menu system is far more intuitive.
Intrusive has negative meaning. "1. tending or apt to intrude; coming without invitation or welcome"
Good is not being intrusive. Menus set features in logical hierarchy structure. Ribbon is oversized and hard to use, because it hides features from end user. Copying Microsoft shit breaks usability. For example, vmware server 1.x has remote console, 2.x version put console on web server like Microsoft Virtual Server does. 2.x shit is intrusive (wants to load own controls or plugins in browser), unstable (runs as some applet in browser and is not independent program) and unusable.
Here's the texture they apparently forgot to modify [schnittberichte.com].
Seeing how many changes to the game and to the textures they've had to do, I'm not that surprised something that small slipped in.
The interesting thing now is if they're gonna remove that texture, remaster, repackage and send the new ones to all stores again, even more so because the game is over an month old now and the best sales are already gone.
Maybe they can also fix other mistakes. Shooter should not use MP40's magazine as handhold.
Can this voracious weed perhaps be turned into biofuel?
I am not biofuel engineer, but I think you can't efficiently turn any plant into fuel. If plant does not pack big amounts of carbohydrates, you might lose more energy than you get.
I always thought that building drivers into the kernel was going to be Linux's downfall.
Allowing untested third party drivers will create unstable system. When drivers are in kernel tree, they are be reviewed and fixed. If hardware manufacturers write and maintain drivers in own software repositories, drivers will be untested, unmaintained and crappy.
People don't have to be under mind control in order to think that Microsoft is evil. They might have enough work experience to know that Microsoft, Adobe, Autodesk and Corel don't care about end customer and care only about own profits and suppressing opposition. Such corporate behavior fits definition of evil in human world.
It does not disable default user actions that are defined in autorun.inf
Malware won't start when you insert flash drive, but it will be executed when you will doubleclick on drive in order to open it.
If you buy Vista Business or Ultimate, you have the right to downgrade to XP Pro even if you have only OEM license. The only possible issues are install media and winxp drivers.

With all the time spent dealing with the licensing, a company could probably save money if Microsoft had a 'dumptruck licensing plan' where you simply drove them a dump truck full of money every 6 months and you could use whatever software in whatever situation.

POPS, IMAPS, SMTP over SSL, FTP over SSL.
Do you know that some microsoft addresses are hardcoded in OS? OS might ignore etc\hosts.
Same address might host Office licensing server and Office Adware Edition might refuse to start, if licensing server is not available.

paypal.com uses EV cert. Original site shows green location bar.
That idiot is highest secular representative of Iran. Just like Hitler was highest representative of Nazi Germany.
Israel is not Aryan country and Iran is.
Or have separate server for virtualizations and keep only virtual server console on your laptop with small and slow disk.
Ask your game manufacturer why number of shells is counted on client and not on server.

biggest problem - 12TB full backup. Setup depends on budget and you won't be able to do full backup over night on slower links.

No. But you should be upset when they ship experimental drivers that bluescreen their own OS after one click in web camera options.
Or maybe they prefer to rape people outside of their country.

Just give Microsoft time. They already managed to slow printing in WinXP SP3.
