Likening the United States to Soviet Russia is such a laughable comparison
Well, you are right if you mean places like NY. But, Guantanamo is also part of USA just like secret CIA prisons for torturing "terrorists" around the globe. Those places are not much different to North Korea or Soviet Union when it comes to human rights, IMO.
I have pedestrian system functionality connected automatically translate to Slashdot form you can digest in the moment as I am publishing onto vehicle summer program.
Hello Firefox guys, my name is Balmer, Steve Balmer. Those folks you see closed in s cage is our "IE team". You will decide what is their destiny. Look at our latest sources, and tell me, but honestly, is there any use of it?
As seen in the case of film, improving technology of film camera and sound systems means nothing to quality of film (it doesn't improve films, it doesn't degrade films). After a few months/years of photo-realistic-games-shock-therapy we will all get back to unrealistic Mario worlds. I don't think that graphic performance is limiting factor (any more) for todays games quality
TFA forgets to mention that besides "Linuses" and "Bills" there are also "Jobs" users that have same connection speed like users above, but opted to pay twice as much.
See them in court if they try to get around my patent 3404987: "Method of starting a multi-hundred million dollar firms for establishing new inventions and patenting them".
Except that Google could see for very long time this coming and had enough cash to prepare response. Lets see it unrolled (Linux distro?/media+game downloading channel?/web office?/all of these?). One thing is certain: Google will wait with response as long as they own web-advertizing, no metter what yahoo's/MS _plans_ are.
Sending food and medicine doesn't work. Why? Because we are able/want to send much _less_ food/medicine/water then it is needed. Reason: Sending 10% of your money (that would be enough) for food in Africa will not win you any elections anywhere. In case this is true (it is) we should keep with plan B (building education there so that they can feed themselves). If you are growing apples Africa, it is _big_ difference if you can use cell phone and sell your products without going 20 miles away or simply negotiate activities with your family elsewhere. Cell phones will have huge impact on productivity of people in Africa just like it had anywhere else. I am not sure about _computers_ however. Anyway, "bring them food instead of cell phones/computers" attitude equals to "do nothing" in practice. Nobody will bring food to Africa even if we could. Fact proved by history.
Main difference: Today's gaming _industry_ is based on marketing and technical qualities (graphics, music). In old days, it was gameplay. If Elite is released today, noone would notice, because it had crapy graphics and no music (On my ZX). Yet quite few peole spent _years_ playing it. My take is that industry killed gameplay. 2 programmers + 3 Artists good, 20 programmers + 30 artists + whole lot of other people involved, bad.
Apple is involved because of applications like Pages and Keynote that use an XML-based format and provide interoperability with many other 3rd party formats, including Microsoft Word.
There are organizations, like OOo, that provide interoperability with MS Offices formats, without kissing MS asses in "Open" group.

All three-letter acronyms are recycled many times already but it will not stop future projects/organizations to recycle them once more.

They added Daily Show (Iceland) to Fox News (DPRK) and diveded by 2.
So, what he suggests is that we are someone's 3 dimensional screen-saver in otherwise 11 dimensional space?
and Balmer and his collection of flying chairs?
Most popular party in Holland is Jon Lech Johansen's "DVD Party"

As MS employee, I can promiss we will not only support ODF, but extend ODF to many new ways our customers are excited to experience.
DevKit is broken, maybe whole line of it. What it means for final console? Nothing.
Well *Some* developers are like Artists, others are more like Naïve painters with unlimited budgets for colors and huge canvases.
