I don't see any reason you can't use the same technique for laser-scanning a broken record, you just have to glue it (or otherwise attach it) to another disk for support.
The cilinders are an entirely different issue though.
Non-informative film making isn't "press", at least not in my country. If the law is to be applied only to professional movie recording, I don't see a clash with the freedom of the press.
Oh, now the term is "Successful"? Is that a synonym for "a disaster"?
Not every senator and congressman is crooked, but some are. And those can apparently get into the white house. And not because of election fraud, which probably happened the first time, but because the people is stupid enough to re-elect them.
I Dont feel sorry for some European nations (Im not even going to name them) despite the fact people die waiting to see a doctor there its their health care system and for whatever reason they like what they got.
People mostly die waiting for complex surgeries (not waiting to see a doctor) on the completely free health care system, you mean. Well, it happens. It's better than not having free health care though.
And you can always get insurance and/or go to a private hospital. Speaking for myself, I have insurance but I pretty much only use the public system. Wanna know why? Because it's good.
In Portugal and most european countries the service doesn't depend on the telco (we like the common carrier stuff). The bank provides a mobile site (the same way they offer the usual site) and you use it (it's also available by sms/voice). If someone didn't want to compete/change it was probably the banking industry.
My university uses a self-built open source system, fenix to manage several thousand students. It's heavy and complex to install and configure, but it's great for the users. It's used in other universities and also powers our public site.
It was under rare conditions, but in Spain there was a time last month in which wind generators power generated exceeded all the other sources, including nuclear. You can read about it here.
That being said, I do agree that at this exact moment nuclear might be "the greenest tech available right now for large scale electricity generation", but is it worth it investing in it with the alternatives available which most agree will be the future? It's like going to a store tomorrow and buying a DVD player for each TV in your house (now that I think of it, I bought 2 new DVD players in the last couple of months). It's the most useful technology now, as blueray and HD-DVD are yet too expensive, but is it a good investment for the near future?
Nobody's saying the US lost the right to complain.
You replied:
By that logic, Canada and Antigua have no right to file WTO complaints against the US, since both nations doubtlessly have their own violations on their own records, but then whatever nations filed those complaints probably had records of their own too.
Did you at least read my comment? They have every right to complain, they just can't expect anyone else to abide by the court's decision if they themselves don't.
It's not about having a clean trade record, it's about appealing to a court whose decisions they don't recognize/follow. You can't have it both ways, or at least shouldn't.
Nobody's saying the US lost the right to complain. They can complain all they want, they just lost the right to expect China to comply with the decision.
I'm in Portugal and I can use skype on my iMate Jam. I just don't because mobile data rates are expensive as hell for whatever purpose (in my case, around 0,005/KB).
Thanks Richard, you've just made it harder to move people into OSS in most of the industrialized countries of the world
And by that you mean the US right? I'm only saying this because most of the industrialized countries of the world don't think communists are sons of the devil.
Real coffee is coffee with water instead of water with coffee.
Now, you might not drink it that hot, but it is served straight from the machine, so it's quite hot. You have a choice of drinking it or letting it cool, as you probably have with something straight out of a frying pan. In fact, you could probably burn yourself on a fried egg too. Also, for a better example, if you ask for a tea I hope they'll bring it with just boiled water and if they don't, you should try going to another place.
It was a stupid case, one more on a stupid legal system. There's no excuse.
I'm not sure about that watery stuff that's sold everywhere but real coffee - espresso - if served straight from the machine should be about around 90 celsium. Since you can't go over 100, what exactly does the "safe" temperature range end? 94 C ? 98 C?
That's one cold way of looking at it, and is probably the philosophy that's been turning most of the world against the US.
Around here, if a plane crashes we hear "300 lives were lost", and not that "100 portuguese lives were lost and there were also a couple of hundred bodies spread around the plane remains".

They're cool for low-power silent servers. I have a couple p2 toshibas running BSD and they've been working great for years.
Well maybe then the US would get a reasonable leader. You can't do much worse, can you?
I believe the Chinese didn't elect their government, so they have no direct responsabiility. The same can't be said for the US.
Of course it is.
It might mimic a 21 year old partying, and the "enemy combatant" might not even ming, but would your grandparents like it?
And dropping the book too, if it aims to humiliate/offend someone (which it is).
Sometimes it's not the action itself but it's intent.

Those who have to. He didn't choose the GPL to be used by himself, he chose it to be used by others.
Microsoft's lawyers probably have more work than all of Parallels employees, so that's not really a valid excuse.

A dead language isn't one which isn't spoken, it's one which stopped evolving. And Latin hasn't evolved for a long time.

On the other hand their manpages actually say something.

Where it says "court" read WTO, but the spirit is the same.

Even so, nobody's as fat.

Sort of like the UN Security Council...

That's just cruel.

Coffee is supposed to be hot.
