How many Norwegians doesn't have cellular Internet connectivity already anyway?
I don't have statistics on that, and I live in a very different, much higher priced market. Here in the United States, there are many radio listeners whose phone service is landline-only or voice-and-text-only because of the price of cellular data service. Are there few enough such listeners in Norway that a government subsidy for phone service capable of streaming news and weather, analogous to the U.S. Lifeline program (sometimes called Obamaphone though it began in the Reagan era), would be advisable? And even then, someone who subscribes to a data plan with a small monthly data transfer quota would probably have to buy a bigger data plan to fit a replacement for FM radio.
Then you do the same for TV broadcasts.
I don't see how that can work over the limited RF spectrum until cellular begins to support IP multicast. Otherwise, a hundred users in the same cell watching the same scheduled programming would cause the tower to have to transmit the program a hundred times.
Or are you recommending a unicast to each subscriber over cellular at $40 per subscriber per month (source: T-Mobile)?
I'm mostly suggesting fiber and whatever generation cellular coverage
Say someone owns a car for ten years. Your suggestion of "whatever generation cellular coverage" will incur a recurring bill which totals thousands of dollars over those ten years. A $200 DAB+ radio is likely to be far cheaper.
Perhaps someone at EIB thinks not everybody receiving Mr. Limbaugh's show thinks the convenience is worth $219 per year for the first receiver and $146 per year for each additional receiver.
I'll wager most EE grads could not build an FM radio without a drawing.
Why would I build one without drawing a schematic first?
I think rfengr was implying that recent graduates from U.S. electrical engineering colleges would have to look at someone else's existing schematic rather than creating an original schematic on paper.
I could only imagine how hard it would be to kill analog FM broadcasts in the US, considering that many NEW radios being produced still do not support the "HD Radio" digital signals yet.
In turn because "HD Radio" is heavily encumbered by exclusive rights, with parts patented and other parts a trade secret.
If your PC shipped with Windows 7, then the old one is better because the old one costs $0 to you (because you are already a licensee) and the the new one costs $119. What makes the new one worth $119?
Good luck setting up an IP multicast to the entire city. Or are you recommending a unicast to each subscriber over cellular at $40 per subscriber per month (source: T-Mobile)?
Quake 1-3: Play a source port with gamepad input and split screen or add this feature to a source port. COD series: I have seen split screen in Zombies mode of Black Ops for Xbox 360. Is it intentionally omitted from the PC version? Warcraft series: Skip Warcraft. Contribute gamepad mode and split screen to Stratagus instead.
Is there a reason why Tesla isn't expanding more aggressively in markets where petrol is more heavily taxed? Or is electric power also expensive in 230 V land?
4a. Run technical "support" hotlines where technicians pretend the tree command is a "wirus" scan, misinterpret Windows event logs as evidence of malware on the user's "dextop", misinterpret services that don't need to run right now as services disabled by malware, charge $500 for a 3-year PC maintenance plan, and threaten to lock the victim out of his own computer with SAM Lock Tool (syskey.exe) if he doesn't buy.
For-profit businesses want to reach customers. If a business's prospective customers predominantly use one mapping platform and a vocal minority of freedom fanatics use another, the business is likely to concentrate on the mapping platform that brings in the most customers. In order to make OpenStreetMap viable, freedom fanatics may have to find businesses themselves and ask staff why the business's listing is inaccurate or missing.
only the licensing restrictions (from Microsoft but also Nvidia and AMD) disallow what would make it most useful, like four players running a multiplayer game from the same PC.
I don't see how that's impossible. Plug four USB gamepads into a PC, and at least Duck Game will recognize them, as will FCEUX (an NES emulator). If a native PC game supports online co-op but refuses to recognize more than one gamepad for split-screen co-op on an appropriately powerful PC, complain to its publisher and don't buy any future games from the same publisher.
As far as I'm aware, there exists no "properly formatted string" shorter than MAX_PATH bytes that correctly represents the absolute path of a file whose path components plus separators total MAX_PATH bytes. Or should Windows be automatically allocating and deallocating drive letter aliases whenever the user attempts to access an affected file using a legacy program?
I have hard time believing we're not going to be seeing Netbook 2.0 here.
If it's Netbook 2.0, count me in, because a 10 inch laptop was small enough not to be quite as obvious of a target for thieves compared to a 13-17 inch laptop.
The top ARM processors aren't as powerful as the commonly used x86 processors
But are they more powerful than the 1-core, 2-thread Atom CPUs from the netbook era, especially when skipping the translation layer by running software recompiled by its publisher or (in the case of free software) by the user's copy of GCC or Microsoft C++? One reason Surface RT 1 and 2 failed was that Microsoft deliberately locked out publishers and free software users from recompiling their Win32 desktop applications for ARM ISA, instead requiring all third-party applications to be what are now called UWP applications.
I can perform any of my regular chores on my laptop, but not as quickly nor as easily.
I guess it depends on whether your job lets you ride a bus or train as opposed to driving or cycling. Transit users can make productive use of commute time, for which a laptop is more efficient than not having a suitable computer at all.
ARM devices have been running the PrBoom source port for over a decade. The only thing keeping popular ARM devices from running actual Doom is Idthesda's refusal to port it, combined with app store policies that require applications to be "self-contained".

I can not see where your joke is headed.
Perhaps someone at EIB thinks not everybody receiving Mr. Limbaugh's show thinks the convenience is worth $219 per year for the first receiver and $146 per year for each additional receiver.
That's $15 per month for the first receiver and $10 per month for each additional receiver, plus 13.9% music royalty cost recovery fee, plus state sales tax on the order of 7% that varies from one jurisdiction to another.

Touchpad below keyboard causes unintentional movement unless there's an easy disable button for the touchpad.
Such as any key on the keyboard. In Xubuntu, try Settings > Mouse and Touchpad > Devices > Touchpad > Disable touchpad while typing (0.3 s).
