Students nowadays cannot be punished for any misbehavior or disruption, its all illegal. Its common sense that standards are in the toilet.
Students who succeed in the US now are succeeding despite our system, not because of it.
The truce only holds for the patents that they have vested in RockStar. Any patent not fully vested is fair game. I would imagine the PrimeSense patents will be kept well away from RockStar. Companies often sue each other while having an otherwise perfectly workable relationship. See Samsung v Apple.
1. Only 345 million? At least they actually produce something, Facebook offered to buy snapchat for 3 billion, and thats just another "me too" messenger service flavor of the month.
2. Why the hell doesn't microsoft already own this? Seems like they made a monumental fuckup not buying this years ago, and now will be beholden to Apple.
..then there is something more serious broken in your decision making that command can fix.
There are far better distros out there, no matter what you're looking for.
True, but nobody outside the IT dept is going to use ssh, install security plugins like OTR or use PKI. Unless this is all baked directly into the product,is on by default amd is zero-config, it will fail.

Yes I do. Especially when I, and most good drivers, can often anticipate a movement several seconds before it actually happens. Put that in your equation.
This just means the can can *react* to something that is already moving, rather than *proactively* anticipate a movement. Often times this is the difference between life and death.
I get tired after about 5 hours straight driving. But for city and suburban driving, no chance.
There is no tech yet that can anticipate a child about to kick a ball out onto a road, or to see that a pedestrian is about to walk out in front of you without looking first.
should be kicked out of the upper house for assisting in the pro-surveillance propaganda.
They helped keep things secret for fear the rule of law would be duly applied. Its a disgrace. Those shills should be locked up.
Fire the fat butt-hurt dweller mods who over-moderate and reject articles for stupid subjective reasons. Unreasonable rejection is what turns people off.
No doubt they'll replace it with some sort of reality show. Utter garbage.
The BBC is synonymous with bad decision making these days.

The figure I quoted is for a "best sellers" where retailers cut goes down as any self respecting retailer cannot be without the book so publishers cut their margin. The sheer pulp volume increases the distribution and printing costs enormously.
The figures you quote are for a different market scope.

60% of the cost of publishing a traditional best selling dead-wood book is printing and distribution. With those costs zeroed by ebook publishing, prices have not come down. Add to this the DRM and onerous terms and conditions (you are buying a conditional license to read the book, you don't "own" it). It is illegal to lend the ebook to somebody, illegal to resell (also technically troublesome), probably also illegal to read aloud as that might count as public performance. So fuck publishers, DRM and eBooks.
Good thinking. And when your laptop is stolen/infected with a trojan and your files eventually make their way onto the net, you can be sued. Everybody wins.

American Slashdotter: "Our government ought to do something about these god damned patent trolls!!!!"
European Government actually does something about patent trolls.
American Slashdotter: "Damn europeans! Always picking on our good ol hard workin corporations. Its about freedom and choice. Don't they get it."
This. A thousand times this.

Good idea, but can't really see that catching on, unfortunately.

Good drivers can "anticipate" actions. This is quite different to "predicting" actions. If you're confused just go look it up.
