Just for reference, breaking the law is illegal, thats what it means. Doesn't really matter if its a civil matter or not. Doesn't matter what law that is broken.
And if you read the article you'd know... she isn't an idiot... and she's trying to protect people using her name to infringe on her IP by selling unlicensed copies of her IP and using her name to do so.
But hey, you didn't read the article, you're just another know it all slashdot idiot.
It makes it very clear very quickly that you don't want to vote for any of them if they aren't smart enough to realize that they people who are old enough to vote for them are going to be turned off by the name.
Names are only names, but in cases like this they give you a lot of valuable insight about the people behind the name.
People will vote for the Nazi wanna-be's before they'll vote for the idiots that make up 'the pirate party'.
That should put it in perspective for you.
Thats not because they like the Nazi's, its because 'The Pirate Party' is about as retarded as you can get. Its an example of what happens when you let people with the maturity of a 12 year old boy act as if they are adults and let them play in the real world.
"The Pirate Party" makes it sound like they are a bunch of rebellious kids flaunting how they like to break the law and get away with it.
Sounds like a pretty accurate description to me, doesn't it? At least their honest about their intentions.
Taking on Wikileaks was a stupid move on their part, that alone is reason enough not to vote for them. They were attempting clear abuse of the intention of the immunity laws.
You may think these guys are 'doing good', but they really are just doing whatever they can to get their way. They are childish, and you'd be an idiot to vote them into power.
Changing their name isn't going to change how they act.
was that the motorola chips were becoming dated, which Apple fixed in the Mid 90's with the power PC.
... the PowerPC chips were designed by Motorola, IBM fabbed them and eventually bought out the design when Motorola dumped it... which also triggered Apple to jump to x86.
NT before 2000 was hardly a 'useful' OS. It was Windows, but with an extremely limited set of available software since most things that worked in 95 or 3.x that weren't extremely simple wouldn't work right in NT, if at all. It was buggy, crashed often, even without any third party software or drivers. Not that OS 8/9 were better, and even Win2k was an absolutely shitty consumer OS, far more useful as a server than previous versions of NT. Also, XP came out in 2001, not 2000.
I don't know where OSes are going, but iOS is a fad, this massive 'everything must be on the web' drive will go away, its not the first time its come and gone, even if you don't remember it.
I also signal trucks when they have sufficient room to merge in to my lane by flashing my headlights. It seems most of them no longer know of this signal either since very very few of them respond with the traditional 'thank you' blink after the merge.
I think its partially because my parents drove at a time when drivers had a higher average intelligence, before anyone and everyone drove and it was limited to generally people with a brain. It could also be because the idiots didn't live very long back when cares were... less safe.
because if you get up to 45, there's no way you can hit the brakes and get down to 25 in that distance without locking your brakes and risking a skid.
So... the sign for the 25mph zone is what... 35-45 feet past the 45 mph sign? If you can't slow down without skidding then the signs must be so close together that you would certainly see them both at the same time.
No, its likely a fuse in the CPU that only gets blown by sending the CPU a special series of commands and the proper password for that particular CPU. After it validated the passcode, it blows the fuse and on next power on, its a different chip.
Well, if it isn't the case than Intel will look like some serious schmucks when it gets cracked. Considering Intel also produces tamper-proof chips for cryptography stuffs for the goverment, I would presume that putting it into the CPU would be trivial for them... its what they do.
I'm not saying they wouldn't do it in CPU, but lets face it, they know if they don't it'll be cracked, and they know how to do it in CPU already, and it would look bad on their other divisions if it does get cracked... I just cant' see them being stupid enough to do it any other way.
Lets also not forget that Intel tends to spew lies in order to force changes to get their way, like reduce compatibility.
Remember 'slotted' processors... which were supposedly because BGAs and PGA sockets were no longer capable of handling the high frequency communications needs... (When any EE knew better instantly) and it turns out really that they switched to slots just so AMD wouldn't be able to follow them due to patents, hence forever ending the time when you could drop an AMD or an Intel processor in the same socket and actually use the machine. Funny how we're back to BGAs and PGAs again.
Thats just because you're too stupid to realize that you are paying WAY too much for the i7 in the first place.
It bothers the rest of us because we realize that if they are selling it at an i5 price, then its clearly profitable enough at that price range, the extra cost to 'upgrade' is just greed.
That level of greed scares most people that recognize it. When someone is that greedy, most people realize that makes their screwing you in every way they can.
No one thinks its about bait and switch, its that it is clearly nothing more than a way to rip people off.
People see Intel selling a i7 at an i5 price with parts disabled which costs the same as a normal i7 to make, just so people will pay more for the real i7.
Its just wrong. It may be 'acceptable' business, but it takes all of a millisecond to realize its wrong and shows just how amazingly greedy they are. When people see that level of greed they tend to back off and be weary of what other ways they are getting screwed.
Its obvious greed, and that bothers the hell out of most people. That sort of greed comes from people you KNOW you don't want to deal with cause its just a matter of time until they'll fuck you. Without lube.
So you're comparing a chip thats broken and incapable of actually performing at the specified level... to a chip that isn't broken and can perform at the specified level except they just told it not to, so they could get more money...
Chances are a good portion of the economy cpus out there had a core or two disabled just to meet a shipping quota and price point, not because the core failed an integrity check.
And most consumers have no clue about that, also, the extra core(s) is almost always broken in multiple ways, so you really can't use them reliably.
However, when they realize they have the full spec of hardware in working condition and Intel is just, basically, charging them a few to get access to the extra cylinders already in the car?
Thats probably going to raise a few more eye brows.
Why? So they could see that people who vote based on a political party color have less development in those areas than people who make their vote by putting the effort into figuring out which politician will most likely do what they want regardless of political party or promises?
Its cute that you wanted to make it political, but the very fact that you bring up 'party' shows you're an idiot.
Vote for the guy who's going to do what you think is right, not because the guy flies your favorite color or animal.
Most sane people also think texting rather than just making a phone call is rather stupid.
Texting is almost as useless as twitter. Again, you don't need to text, any sane email server/client does push, AND its freaking reliable unlike text messages and twitter. Its fully distributed and theres no ties to any single company.

Liar. I've seen you post on slashdot before, I'm fairly sure you've seen science raped and abused here without even considering lube.
The encryption is still effective, you've just stolen the password.
Have you mythtv guys heard of firewire? Aren't all US boxes required to have it now?
I've been able to get HD via the cable companies box and firewire to my Windows MCE machine for years via firewire and an ir remote.
No, keep it.

I still do it, because my father did.

And to all your other questions:
No, that would be stupid.

Heh, they don't need any more leverage. If you're trying to run Linux on these machines you're going to go out of business real quick.
We're not talking about PCs running a normal OS, we're talking about main frames ... which run slightly more advanced operating systems.
So you're comparing a chip thats broken and incapable of actually performing at the specified level ... to a chip that isn't broken and can perform at the specified level except they just told it not to, so they could get more money ...
Two entirely different things.

Welcome to the cycles of nature.
New land is being formed as well, and new islands, even with rising sea levels.

Its illegal regardless of crossing state lines.
Federal law supersedes state law, always.
There are an infinite number of Linux distributions spread across an infinite number of universes.
The problem is just finding the right universe to start looking in.
Just because you can list some popular software packages that have stupid names doesn't change the point any.
Eventually people know what those names mean, however until you develop critical mass the name hurts.
