I would consider it to be complimentary, or supplemental. It adds to the knowledge base. The more the merrier. There's no need to "compete", or put down the other. Cooperation, not competition will bring about faster progress in most endeavors.
About the only thing you'd have to worry about would be a tsunami.
Not at all. It would pass under you virtually unnoticed. Tsunamis aren't a problem until the water gets shallow. As for general stability, you just need to have enough mass well below the surface.
Let's not forget the issue of patent liability. We may have to wait until some of them expire before manufacture and distribution will become affordable.
Ok, so we put up 46.666667 thermo solar plants. A beowulf cluster, if you will. Got lots of empty desert out there. Besides we should quit burning coal. Even nuclear is better than that.
And it needs a fan? My 486 consumes more than that and doesn't even need a heatsink. And what the hell is TDP if it doesn't represent some real mathematical value instead of Madison Avenue mumbo-jumbo?
Don't come saying you paid for all software and entertainment you use...
Hmmm, did you actually see that written somewhere? Besides, I am within my rights to do whatever I wish with software, entertainment, or any other information in my possession, the law not withstanding.
becomes a criminal act, then all private private companies must be considered as government agents, with all the constitutional restrictions that apply to the government itself. So, for example, no censorship is permitted, no snooping into employees computers by their boss without a warrant signed by a judge, etc. It is important that this case goes nowhere fast.
If too many people actually become educated about copyright and its real intent, they will start calling for it to be abolished, or at least roll it back. Knowledge in the wrong hands can be a very dangerous thing. Ignorance is strength
They didn't lose control. They gave it up willingly, for the sake of convenience. If they actually cared, they wouldn't keep on voting for the one who can flash the most cash. They would seek out and vote for candidates who aren't so allied with big business. But... it's more convenient to just vote for the guy that mass media presents to them. Then bitch about it till the next cycle, repeat. If they would admit it, they would be on the first step towards a cure. As it is, the 45 year decline will continue for at least four more. There is no end in sight. Australia doesn't really lookanybetter
Oddly, the telcos start allowing metered access of their 3G networks; no all-you-can-eat plans anymore.
It's not odd at all. In fact that's exactly what I would expect them to do when there's no competition. Should be easy to see why they want it outlawed. I would like to know how good 3G service is and how much it costs in cities with muniWiFi.

I don't understand how companies can get away this.
Pretty simple. People let them get away with it. In other words, the market will bear it. Not much you can do when that happens.
Guess you weren't there. Hollywood went broke in '76.

Then have a reformatting partition on your drive and press f11 during startup to clean everything out.
That's a bit complex. Why not just run a liveCD then? Cache it into RAM, and it runs very fast.
BAH! World War II with spaceships

HA! I believe the proper term is "tax dodge". Or dare I say it? Cult

It denies them access. So GPL is necessary until the concept of exclusivity goes away for good.

Stuff in space gets beat up pretty bad also.

If you read the page, the fan is on the northbridge, not the CPU.
Did read it, didn't note it. I guess all that traffic generates a lot of heat.
And what's the point of a 4 watt CPU if the northbridge draws more than that?
Marketing? Makes Intel look all "green" and stuff.

How many of you will get on a plane that's never been flown? Or buy a car without taking it for a test drive?
Now, before I buy software, I want to at least see a screen shot.
Nonsense. They have elections in China. And the one party similarities between China and the US are more extensive than they appear.
I just knew that it couldn't be the commodities markets. Unless they're all run by...fat people! NOOooooo!
So what? It's true.
...liar.

no I'm not yelling, you dillhole
He's implying that everybody else is "pirating" commercial software and entertainment. You know, trolling.

Abandon them alltogether and let anyone publish whatever they like?
Yes. That would be best. Rolling them back to their original duration would be an acceptable compromise... for now.
