The thing they cant do is accept any objection to it being anything else. To accept anything from Slysoft as a "crack" would be premature.

Unfortunately at this point, there's not many places that coincide with long-term IT that those in Ohio could currently afford (along with moving over there).

If you need an example of why you can justify blocking Chinese Farming - you need only look to the game that all but endorses it - Lineage II.
You can get banned for reporting farmers or disrupting any activities they do (with them able to do whatever), with the rare mass ban to cycle the low revenue farmers out, coincidentally with a predicted rise in gold cost. Items, crafting, and quests all are engineered to be accomplished in only one way, botted farming. It is either risk being banned or being illequipped against those who buy adena and use third party programs.
These are the same kind of farmers that in countries that run legitimate adena sales(e.g. South Korea), will steal identities to "legitimately register" farming accounts as additional insurance to keeping their business.
To go through the game since beta testing, it clearly has shown itself the primary reason you must enforce the rules to the point where you have cut China out of a US / European game.
Very similar concepts can be applied to the other MMO's - There is no free market system, only the illegitimately run Chinese Farmer market that is sanctioned.
When that happens, maybe it'd be worth the waste of time - and a high quality education as well, guaranteed with no quotas.
Otherwise, MIT is just as bad as applying to an Ivy - all prestige, no real value(given the low standards allowed at an Ivy, you might as well make them open to the red-blooded population as well) if you strip the part of it being from MIT.
At least your hardware wont be subject to Sun's "Hardware EOL Games" (e.g. 32bit cut early on in Solaris 10 builds before OpenSolaris), which will certainly hit those Opterons they're selling. If you did build for them, you could even repurpose the machine and have well-supported hardware unlike what Sun has done in the past *cough*sun4m*cough*.
...but this does not make for an excuse to keep sun4m off OpenSolaris, no matter what mutterings your kernel devs might have to justify it. Now if you made it possible
to rig up an ultrasparc over mbus somehow with this, you might get somewhere. However, that still does not justify including sbus, but cutting out the architecture that primarily used it from source code (even if it was an early build).
At the very least, it'd be a fitting end to see a source/binary (for drivers if impossible to source) release of OpenSolaris fit to sun4m. That would get people still with Quad Ross SS/20's, Ross SS10's, SS5/170's, and the others out there that definitely could take advantage of some of the features as well as have the ability to fix some of the major offenders (since I guess Bart Smaalders seems to have forgotten about the numerous bugs, and just wants to shove sun4m under the "closed hierarchy" carpet).
It's not about the cost, it's about having the ability to fix the bugs on these machines. Distraction with an open Ultrasparc core isnt a good idea.
The best I can see out of it is Sun trying to follow in the paths of OpenPOWER. At least the company behind OpenPOWER is the same one that at least did one last release (AIX 5L 5.1) that allowed some sort of openness that Sun would drop at the fall of a hat.
Add the part that it's probably a partial release of the components, and I doubt it's even that. It might be worth a good look but by no means a complete core. So it's most likely not a distraction.
Put some serious effort to get some people who dont have the "Ivy League" background into Google working at the same level as those from those currently there. After they can get get a good deal of people not from exclusionist backgrounds, then they might consider funding a scholarship that no longer makes it "social connection or perceived merit" to get into the Ivy League type of university. After all, if they're "not doing evil", maybe they might want people that dont run things like Stanford, MIT or CIT (see gmail, Orkut, Ivy League and west coast equivalents).
...that gets 100+ miles to the gallon. Sure, there are the arguments that if everyone drove tanks we'd still have problems - just that I'd rather have the fuel efficiency on something a bit closer to a normal size car. The task might take a while, but I wont mind having a large enough car on the road that wont get completely crushed by an errant 18-wheeler. Something along the lines of those two links in size, just favorably smaller than the first one.
Mods must be on crack today, this post has a valid
issue - a Prius is nice, but we all dont drive in gated neighborhoods or on very short distances. That is, it's gotten to the point where 180mpg is a bit worthless if it only does it for a small mass. Think of an H2 or some road yacht that uses some of the technology that gets the Prius up to 180mpg, that gets 50-100 due to their size. Not a bad place to start with a small car, but I'm sure not going to want to drive something that doesnt look as if it'll be crushed on the highway by about anything that hits it the wrong way.
Those will probably be the same people lucky enough not to have suffered the snobbery @ Stanford or some Ivy League. I'd not be surprised if somebody of that group goes postal with that 60% if it's not handled right.
I'd allow them to skip the Itanium processor line, but to skip the 64bit EM64T is quite odd for such a review. Handing the 64bit categories with no competition like that is almost a PR exercise. You might as well be throwing G5 performance numbers at x86 machines instead of consulting the POWER5 equivalents (closest competition).
No, I'd rather see it used on India to combat the offshoring problem.
And I thought republimods were in the minority here, something must have slipped through the cracks for that one. Sure, it wont be the best answer to the problem, but it's an option that does hit two birds with one stone. One, it does the obvious, next, it gets OBL or gets him to a point where he has to move(and make himself more readily to be caught). Unless you like the effects of atomic energy, one would want to move far enough out of the way, even if you're the symbolic leader of a large terrorist group.

Just hope that they dont make the same mistake of dividing IPv6 and letting this kind of thing happen again. The rest of the legitimate world could have used some of the class a's. If they want ipv6, they should be required to give a reasonable estimate of how many blocks they will actually use in the time they'll hold them, even if they are.e[litist]du's, or the rest of the world.

No, but that's what human rights seem not to be Over There.

Fill it with WMD and sell it to the US Military?
