I've often wondered about the reliability of ICBMs, both Soviet and American. If there had been a nuclear exchange, how many warheads would have made it to the target? How many would have made it out of the silo? My guess is not many. Probably a reasonably higher percentage of American ICBMs would have hit their targets, but I would think there would still be failures.
they don't go out of there way to make it hard to develop on there platforms or they'd just be another mac
It is to laugh. I'd rather develop with Cocoa and Objective-C than look at another line of.NET crud in my life. And I've got enough experience with both to back that statement up.
The situation with NeXT was exactly the opposite. NeXT killed themselves by only offering their OS on flashy $10,000 workstations. When they finally transitioned to selling OPENSTEP/Mach on other hardware, it was too little too late.
I'm not going to discuss the main article anymore, because it's just too painfully retarded to think about, much less read. But as long as we're out in the Land of Wild Speculation anyway, I kind of like the whole Solaris kernel + Aqua idea.
Actually, that has been done. Sun got uppity and dumped it for Oak, which became Java. That was dumb, but that was Sun.:-)
IANAE, but my impression is that currency is not "Intellectual Property." It's a promise to pay you back later (promissory note). What the government doesn't want is people going around sticking them with debt they never agreed to take on.
I assume pavement means "sidewalk." Is it normal for people to ride bicycles in the road instead of on the sidewalk in England? Where I live, it's the exact opposite: people are angry at bicyclists who ride in the street and block traffic.
What's more, DVD resolution is already capable of showing limitations in the source material, such as film grain and lack of sharpness from use of wide aperture lenses. I doubt people are going to spend thousands of dollars to see film grain in higher resolution.
That's exactly the problem. My HDTV makes everything look like crap, including DVDs. Now I want some HD content to make it worthwhile. But all Hollywood wants to provide in HD is DRM-encumbered content, most of which isn't worth watching in the first place. And the cable company doesn't provide anything in HD that I actually want to watch, either. (Charter licks donkey balls.)
...for some peace and quiet. I'm just exhausted with the constant stream of noise and information. Turn the TV off, pack it up, and put it by the curb. Sit and listen to the clock ticking. You'll feel better after.
Using it is not the problem, using it in context is what they want. You can have a jeep with the red cross on it, but there shouldn't also be a gun turret in the back. Nor should any similarly-marked items only restore health for one 'team'.
Doesn't that sound even a little bit over-the-top-idealistic and contrived to you?
I met the guy at a piano workshop once and thought of him immediately upon seeing your nick. He's an expert Bach player. Of course, Bach was Lutheran.:-)
What can you tell from the case, is overall mood over here. People in Europe are sick of taxes. And another association asking for another compensation and protection against competition is just what it is - another association asking for another compensation and another protection against competition. And artist associations here are far from being first in the queue of the beggars, looking for gov't help.
So is Europe starting to move away from heavily controlled economics and toward free markets?
So I went to the doctor and the first thing they did was to use a new device which scanned my retina for "bumps" created by inflammation. This device used a laser and it scanned in the same way a CRT creates a picture on the monitor glass. The doctor then got a 3d-image of my retina with the "bumps" marked in different colors. Pretty cool.
And...? Then what? Did they find a way to repair the damage? Don't leave us hanging like that!
I hear my girlfriend complain alot about pains, from her wrist to her neck since even though she just uses a PC about 2 hours a day compared to my +11hours for my work,research and entertainment. After working for hours, I often feel strained too much to handle a mouse.
While some of this may be poor mouse and keyboard design, you and your girlfriend would be well served by examining posture, correct seating, correct monitor height, correct table height, and physical habits which build up over the course of a lifetime. Those factors have the greatest influence on physical pain.
I know this from bitter experience, both at the computer keyboard and the piano keyboard. A long period of relearning posture and natural movement has made astonishing changes in how I feel and how accurately and quickly I can perform tasks. The only problem is that it's very difficult to communicate the subtle details of such things.
As it happens, the vertical mouse didn't seem to help at all with my RSI.
It's also important to remember that RSI isn't the only ergonomic problem. What's to say this vertical mouse even attempts to address the other issues, like forcing your elbow to be held out from the body, or forcing the shoulder into a lifted position (which seems inevitable)?
There are reports of a "leaked" SDK for EZX phones but I dont know much about it (using it would probobly be a violation of copyright anyway so its probobly best not to)
Public distribution might be a violation, but "using it" (i.e.: reading it for information) would not.
As API's like CoreImage/CoreVideo take off, things like VMX and AltiVec will become still more irrelevent, except perhaps to those people running FFTs all day long.
Not arguing with your larger point, but wouldn't that be the majority of Mac users? Artists and musicians? Has the Mac market changed significantly?

It's Bush's fault. He's Hitler, you know.

Well, maybe it's because they have Alzheimers?
Actually, that has been done. Sun got uppity and dumped it for Oak, which became Java. That was dumb, but that was Sun. :-)
Yes, all of that is true. I was just expressing doubt that counterfeiting was a violation of Intellectual Property laws.

Boy, somebody's in a bitchy little mood.

It's a metric for enormous quantities of feminie undergarments.
Don't forget Walter Duranty's Pulitzer Prize winning propaganda about Stalin's Soviet paradise.
