An Italian judge decided this way: It means this is the law in Italy. You complaining on the internet won't change a damn, and I don't give a damn about it.
Quick - when was Hardy Herring? Did you have to go look?
I completely agree with this. I'm do not use Ubuntu regularly, but sometimes I have to help people who do. I do not know the names by hearth, I guess I can just do cat/etc/issue and get it? Nope! There is only says the version number. Ok, no problem, I'll google the number. No way, in the support forums everybody just uses the code name. Finally I have to check on wikipedia whatever name version 12.04 has.
To be fair, there is the same exact problem with Debian. It is true that Debian only has had like 6 releases since the beginning of time, but it adds the extra complexity layer of calling them stable, unstable and testing. So, let's check if debian 5.0 support this.. no information. Let's try if google for lenny returns something? Nope. Ok, let's see google for "debian stable" then manually check every result to see if it was published between 2009 and 2011.
Can the Linux Foundation set up a definition where things just have to be in certain locations, regardless of distro, and certain commands that just have to work, regardless of distro?
If you think that zero is Egyptian, than why not claim it is prehistorical? Indeed the first cave men already had the concept of nothing, zero wife, zero food but zero lions in sight. The Egyptian zero is "just" a reference on a distance scale; it marks the transition from zero meaning "nothing" to zero meaning "the reference"; great stuff but not yet there.
The digit zero, used in positional notation, is indeed Indian, as you correctly but partially quoted later. It is a fundamental advancement as it makes algebraic computation dramatically easier. Its actually what allows the transition from geometry-based mathematics, like in ancient Greece, to algebra-based mathematics, like in the Arabic world during the middle ages. And then all the way down to the Turing machine, which performs a minimal set of read/save and algebraic operation necessary to solve any decidable problem.
LOL, what was the idea behind that? Did it parse the html/javascript code and send you an animated.gif as a screenbuffer or what?
There are actually two features.
The first is actual server side rendering, where they would send you some kind of compressed image. This method is used by Opera Mini for android, "feature" nokia phones and I guess even iphones.
The other feature is a server side filtering, at the moment its called on the road mode, it strips unnecessary parts of the page (html comments, unused javascript..) and compress it, then it also recode embedded images with higher compression level. This feature s available on all platforms.
If you a have a fetish for self-service rent of electric cars you've better of visit Paris. Its autolib service provides ~2000 cars to ~50k customers; it also exists since December 2011.
If you want to know what you're installing you cannot know how long it ill take.
More accurately: The uncertainty of installation time multiplied by the uncertain of package content is greater than or equal to the reduced Plank constant.
It is quite obvious that your story is made up. What you describe is not what you did, but what you think others should do. And your unironical failure to see the baroque absurdity of the procedure proves point of TFA.

I've been using adblock since ever, but it is not always available everywhere. I.e. on mobile devices it takes a minimum of technical expertise to set up ad blocking, either by rooting+app or changing browser. Furthermore, and even if I have not seen an ad in years, I've still checked the do not track box wherever I can; if it goes go up in the statistics maybe someone will get the message.
I know a few people who use non-pirate copies of microsoft office, but nobody who actually pays for it with money out of his own wallet. This does not exclude that you do of course, but will you keep paying now that they want you to subscribe for it?
I had the displeasure of having to use libre office and open office and I can say that I would rather pay for Microsoft Office which I don't, then use free Libre/Open office.

Does "Re" in ReFS stand for Reiser?

Yes, there have been legal judgments... Doesn't make them right. :)
They're not random people on the internet, hence they may be wrong
BTW, you CAN buy a Dell without Windows, you just have to order it that way, their business division sells them.
They only sell a few modem without operating systems, i.e. no laptops in europe.
FYI taxes are always included in the price in Europe. Free's 20€ are actually 19.99€ that get out of your pocket.
I've had to remote Firefox too,
You're doing it wrong! Just set up an ssh tunnel and tell firefox to use it as sock proxy. This works seamlessly
You're wasting money on your subscription

Sorry, the number zero was an created 3700 years ago, and not in India.
Sorry, but you're wrong, racist, and fat.
I'm trying to think a India's business, or cultural contrabutions (sic) to humanity in general;
ZERO!
Like, literally, the number zero. Half of the binary digits where invented in India. The other half in Africa.
and then they offered server side "rendering"

I found it on altavista, while looking for something else
Wikipedia was different in 2006, he could have been right at the time and still be right now.

That's only true if the course is too easy or too hard to you. Or if you are too shy to ever ask a question.
the right for the USA to have a consulate in Berlin comes fro ma bi-later agreement that can be retracted at any time. It is not a God-given right.
