Recently most banks in NZ denied access to their respective internet banking sites from all known Marketscore addresses because Marketscore was proxying SSL connections. I don't see how this new Google "service" is any different.
It's different - Google doesn't proxy https:/// connections:-)
Anyway, I don't quite get these "web accelerator" services anyway, if some site is too slow, you just should stay away from it.
If you want the latest release without as much stability as testing, use sid. If you want stable, little-older-than-sid distribution, use ubuntu.
That's just how it is.
I can't undestand why everyone gets this so wrong.
News agencies sell their news and images to magazines and get most of their money from there. They employ a horde of reporters around the world to write news to them. Why would they want one publication to copy their news and photos and use them without payment?
Also, please back your claim and post a link to information that tells how much of their money comes from French goverment.
I wonder how many of those are open source projects of various kinds.
I don't think the employees can decide that, I think (at least that's what I've read on most sources that discuss about this matter) that your "pet projects" that are developed on worktime are owned by google.
This is for example how orkut got born. "In affiliation" with google at the end of the page means in real world "This is google property".
I understand that microsoft aren't claiming to have invented the technology, but it really annoys me that they are trying to patent a use, and a small extract of a software they had only a small part in developing!
When you have software patent laws that allow this, this is going to happen. That's just how it is.
It's great to have an opinion but opinions are not facts
I have also been using Linux since windows 3.1 and on 9X years and I would never ever use windows on desktop (there are many things like virtual screens that Windows lacks but almost every other desktop environment has).
..But that's just my humble personal opinion, I don't run around claiming that windows isn't ready for desktop.
It's also done globally as the article pointed out. Sneaky sneaky google.
(This still isn't evil by googles definition because "Evil is what Sergey says is evil." and this tactic propably adds some additional millions of dollars to Sergeys pocket)
Sometime in the last couple of weeks, Fastclick, a major ad network, started exploiting this to get its popups around Firefox's popup blocker. The ad scripts load a small Flash movie which then lauches the popup.
Just use adblock and nuke those annoying advertisers! That's what I did after the first popup that got through.
I want to say this. He will most likely recieve a TM on that "exact" image, and that "exact image" alone. (i.e. not the word mame, not the word mame in that font, style, size, color, but that EXACT font, size, color, background, and that one ONLY).
The issue here is that he is applying trademark for image and product that is not his for trademark. Both the image and the name have been on mame's use for years and the image is created by someone that has nothing to do with his organization.
The question to ask is: "are these devices really random number generators?"
I don't understand (at all) what "quantum-indeterminate electronic noise" is but that is what these boxes are measuring and basing their random numbers for. So they really are not random numbers but numbers based on variations of "quantum-indeterminate electronic noise".
First off, nothing Mark said surprised me. Yes, he was fired from Google. It was directly related to his blog. He was employed there for just a couple of weeks.
Yes. It was caused by earthquake - earthquakes are quite common in areas where two continent plates collide. In this event, two continent plates collided to each other, causing the ground to suddenly move upwards and cause this horrible tsunami.

We are using flyspray, it's simple and efficient (and free)

(and they also get paid for those reprints)
Do you even understand how silly that is?

I can totally understand why they don't want one company using their material without paying while their customers do pay for the same material.

That's a good question. So why do they?

This is the first day of my life when I'm truely ashamed to be european.
Btw. Did you read his A STATEMENT ABOUT THE M.A.M.E. TRADEMARK & ULTRACADE TECHNOLOGIES? There he basically says that it's okay to request trademark to other peoples things in order to protect his own company from piracy. Quite a funny letter.
This one has more info and some photos if someone is interested.
IMHO calling (not so usual but anyway) rear projection canvas "holographic" is just a big dummy marketing term.
