Apple have designed a system for the masses, ok so they aimed for the elite of those masses (through the mechanism of elitist price), but they are still the masses not the real computer users. If they were so ferkin good why did they adopt BSD as a base ? Go on , why ???
This is what's wrong with the internet. Before the end of this discussion, there are people relying on previous posts to post their assumptions as fact.
You are all twats ! All you cunts talking about rudders coming off - it was a boeing you tossers, I saw a program about it on TV ! The computer in Airbus planes is not in complete control. The NTSC has NOTHING to do with this investigation ! The summary doesn't claim the NTSC have anything to do with this investigation, they say they are investigating other UNRELATED incidents.
Pricks !
I'm just waiting for the post alleging that Iran's internet policy is responsible and we should all send mobile phones to Brazil to save lives...
The EPA is a federal organization that, at the end of the day, must side on the consensus of the scientific community. Not be paralyzed by every single dissenting opinion
How can you judge whether there is a consensus, if the community has had things withheld from its judgment ? Yep, we have 100% agreement from those who don't know ALL the facts.
You forgot to say "among windows users". Moving from 1 windows version to another is not equivalent to moving from windows to linux. So what was your point again ?
It is the exception, not the rule, that a hacker becomes employed as a highly paid consultant.
How do you know ? Surely if you were any good at it you wouldn't get caught, so no criminal record. It's only the ones who do get caught that have nothing to lose by exposing their past. And of course they're going to say "don't do it". I would argue that we need more people involved in it not less. Why should "the man" have everything his way ? Sometimes it is necessary to step outside the law, precisely because it is the law. If an authoritarian govt. says you can't access a website, should you just say "yes sir", or would you find a way to do it anyway ? I would have thought that with all the passive-aggressive angst on here recently regarding Irans internet policy, the answer should be obvious.
"Hacking" drives security, and keeps the corporations and the govt. awake. Information is control, why should the powers that be have all the control ?
So "only a few harrowing accounts" have got through the blocks. If there were such a block in place it can't be very good then can it. Maybe the reason there are only a few, is because there are only a few anyway. I see more violence in the city centre on a friday night.
Streaming full quality 720p over hdmi ? coz we all have hdmi connections over the net, and 720p is really full quality - like fuck ! Anything else you have to say ? This cream reduces the appearance of fine lines - sucker !
Every form of music took some influence from jacko, whether it be heavy metal or dance. Just coz you didn't like it doesn't mean he had no influence. And all the allegations against him were just that. allegations. Nothing was ever proved. So fuck off you rapist.
Blah blah blah. Planes can't fly, we've never seen the bottom of the ocean, we'll never walk on the moon, we can't see what's happening on the other side of the planet in real time, if you go over 20mph you'll suffocate, if you sail west you'll drop off the edge of the world, the atom is the smallest thing in the universe, don't go outside, you'll be hit by a bus....
Do you have any balls ?
We don't need to create self-sustaining colonies in Antarctica, or underwater, so why do it ? If you put yourself in space, you not only need to, you have to deal with it. Necessity is the mother of invention. But I guess in the slimy greedy world of Intellectual Property, you would rather just accumulate wealth for yourself, fuck the universe (and your neighbours). If the only way we can have a space colony is to replicate exactly what we have here, then you're right - it's a waste of time. If you want to head in a new direction however, space is the ONLY place to do it. This planet's full of nay-saying assholes.
BTW, you missed out Burger King and Walmart from your list of "necessities".
Well you'd be wrong to waste any mod points anyway. There is no law against swastikas in the UK. There are laws against being a nazi bastard if by doing so you piss others off, but the same goes for a lot of things. I think the OP was joking.
He didn't want war with England, but he definitely wanted France. Remember a lot of land had been confiscated from Germany after WW1 including the coal fields of the Ruhr and Alsace-Lorraine. He wanted his own back. He even went to Paris to drive triumphantly through the streets. He never did that anywhere else. And it didn't cost us the Empire either. If we hadn't of had the empire, we wouldn't have had nearly as many bases, troops, allies, resources etc. After the war was over, the general feeling worldwide was towards peace and independence. We wouldn't have fought that even if we could. The empire was already on its last legs when Victoria died.
I'm more concerned that the sponsored links featured in gmail have recently been featuring generic soma and viagra substitutes. How do I report these ads as spam ? And no, I wasn't reading a spam message at the time.
WTF ? So when I pipe the output of curl (a video stream) into ffmpeg for conversion into swf and then to ffserver for streaming I'm really just "pushing characters around" ?
ogg is a container not a codec. You may as well say avi when you mean xvid, or MS Video. And since you were talking about audio, you wouldn't be saying either.
If you had been listening, you would realise that by the time this particular network detects a rock, it's already hitting the atmosphere. It was set up to detect ballistic missiles, not incoming asteroids. There would be minimal time to warn or alert any potential landing zone.
And what if another application needs that memory ? I have specifically reserved space in RAM for FF use and FF use alone. And I know exactly what I was doing and have done it. The browser obviously didn't think of doing that, as it defaults to writing to disk. You have to create the preference, it isn't already there, so again, how is FF already doing it ?

Anybody who talks utter shit on this thread can not expect unquestioning belief, or even basic respect, on any other thread ever, GOT IT ?
No, not even respect - if you show none, don't expect any yourself.

Unless you are a pilot or work for Air France I suggest you have no knowledge and should refrain from speculation. Ooops, too late, wankers ahoy.
WTF has the NTSB to do with a Brazilian/French air crash ?

One of their chaps, werner von braun I think his name was, had a neat way of making rockets that eventually went to the moon.

Well the mention of ballistic missiles sort of gave it away I thought.
If you had been listening, you would realise that by the time this particular network detects a rock, it's already hitting the atmosphere. It was set up to detect ballistic missiles, not incoming asteroids. There would be minimal time to warn or alert any potential landing zone.
The last time I even saw any assembly language (ZEAP)I was about 15. I'm now 43 !

How do you monitor how much cache ff is using in that case ? All I have to do is check the usage of /path/to/cache/mountpoint
