I don't know what all the fuss is about. If you approach it with an open mind it makes perfect sense. The unreasonable spoilt tubby pasty basement dwellers who spew poison over systemd need to live in the real world for a while.
We've adopted it on an increasingly large scale and we are seeing the rewards already.
Nothing to do with DRM. If the DRM scheme/keys are preserved then whats the difference. And besides in 50 years time refrigerators will have more computing power than todays data centers and devices will crush todays DRM like it was nothing.
I remember our Mayor presided over the opening of a 25 year old time capsule put there by the local schools. Inside was a lazer disc. When he asked to view the contents of it, nobody could find a device to play it. Vint is right. And its not just a DRM thing, its a lack of standards thing too.
It was an accident? So all this ad injection tech was a typo by some developer? lol. Why is it that the more popular a tech company gets the more of a dick it becomes? Is that some sort of business law?
Samsung's trustworthiness is zero as far as I'm concerned.
In my experience (as a dev team lead and interviewer) foreign workers are generally more educated, more productive and more willing to got the extra mile than the local self-entitled bunch. Now because of your whiny "teamstering" here on Slashdot, the visa numbers wil probably go down, hurting US business.
Some people think that because its on the web then it ahs no real world effects. Unfortunatly a lot of privacy types here are quietly rooting for these silk road guys, the guys who deal to anyone, kids included. They don't care who buys their stuff.
But if a dealer was standing outside a school dealing to the students they would go crazy and call the cops, and rightly so.
They are always the last to recognize standards. Everyone else has moved on. The W3C is run like a government bureaucracy, too slow, no real-world pressures on them to up the pace, and no accountability.
Who gives a shit what they elevate or recognize any more.

Hi Drew, what was the closest you ever came to shutting down FARK, due to litigation, threats from idiots you made famous, boredom, $$$ shortage etc?

Cisco: hey guys whatcha doin. listening to music huh? Yeah I love me some hippedy-hop music.
Making it simple will go a long way to avoiding PEBCAK problems. Simpler processes give less opportunity for human error.
Having conversations that your government can't eavesdrop on is tantamount to terrorism.
You have been warned.
Criticize apple and you will be hounded. It may not come back to bite you today or tomorrow, but you are marked, and they are patient.
The only reason we would go back and do a 'super classic' kind of product is if a whole bunch of people internally...
Yeah never mind the gamertards out there waving their dads wallets at you begging you to empty them.
Everything else is just an attempt to grab personal data. What did you think would happen?
All their products should be thought of as experiments with a shelf life.
What advantages would this CPU have over say... a train, which I can also afford?
Whomever put the laser disk in the time capsule thought they were being all futuristic and stuff.
Then can you tell me what data storage method will still be in use in 50 or 100 years time? Without "being all futuristic and stuff".
There is no physical law that ties energy consumption to computing power. Efficiency increases, new concepts etc will take care of the that.
I'm pretty sure you are confusing "Golden Girls" with the comedy "Benson" that ran from 1979 to 1986.
lol. That put a smile on my face. You are either a jibbering fucktard or a comedy genius.
And its up to future historians to decide what was worth preserving. You seem confused over the point being discussed.

Not everything needs to be preserved for future historians
With respect, what is and what isn't worth preserving is up to future historians to decide. A bit chicken and eggish but there you are.

No. Apparently the lady spoke Swahili not French. Did you even read the summary you moron?

... teaching the cops how not to alienate the people?

... from our country that now judges food quality in calories per dollar?
Its disgusting seeing my nation turning into a bunch of blubber-pods.
Uh No. Sure Google and MS etc have seats on the board, but it does not consist entirely of browser vendors.
