Of what value is ownership without access? To continue the car analogy of a previous poster, if someone tows my car 10 miles away, it's still my car, but I have to walk 10 miles to get it. Some people have gigabyte-sized files, of what use is ownership if bandwidth/latency constraints make it difficult to get those files?
Critical thinking may be a requirement for problem solving, but that doesn't make it a skill. Also, is problem solving the only purpose of critical thinking?
Those few other languages would include French, Spanish, and Italian. The soft g seems to be mostly a Romance language thing. True, "giga" is Greek (which as far as I know only has hard g).
Don't we (in the US) burn coal to generate electricity? According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/US_electricity_production, we use petroleum to generate 1% of our electricity and coal to generate 44.9%. Of course, coal is a bit dirty, but it doesn't make a great vehicular fuel unless you spend energy to change it.

You will be awarded a nobel-price.
A nobel-price? What is that, the cost of a stick of dynamite?

Hey, this is slashdot. Would you mind taking your facts and logic elsewhere?
Sorry, I don't have mod points.
but some people become obsessed with it, think about it all the time
You mean the way law-enforcement officials are about prosecuting marijuana users?
Actually, that was the second last time. The US sent a small contingent into Mexico to pursue Pancho Villa in 1916 or 1917.
Which ISPs offered shell accounts in 2001 (when XP was released)?
Nope, you have simply stepped into dogma. What evidence have you given that critical thinking is a skill that can be taught?
And how do markets decide? Isn't that just a way of saying let personal spending decide?
Can you access these services from a public terminal? If you can't, it might be inconvenient. If you can, then how does TPM protect you?
No, it is "whom" in both cases. John trusts him; Joan serves her. Note the case of the pronouns.

You believe that critical thinking is a skill. If I simply took your word for it, I wouldn't be much of a critical thinker, now would I?
But is problem solving the same as critical thinking?
Point taken. But if people can't install Linux on their PCs, what alternative will they to Windows?
Except that BitLocker, like other such programs, is susceptible to a cold-boot attack. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitLocker_Drive_Encryption
critical thinking skills
But is critical thinking a matter of skills, or is it more like a character trait?
Will handing Microsoft that kind of power make the internet more secure?
But is it prettier than regular Perl?
See Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giga#Pronunciation
No, g followed by a, o, or u is hard in those languages, well "gui" in Italian is pronounced like "gwee" in English.
Did ancient Greek even have a j sound? I thought that all of their g's were hard.

According to Wikipedia, about 70% of our electricity is generated by fossil fuels. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/US_electricity_production

And how do you intend to produce medical treatment?
