We are lucky this thing never happened in EU. I guess first thing anyone would do is leaving city/country immediately and I doubt anyone would take care of damaged plant. For this sole reason I consider European reactors more dangerous than any other. Nobody would follow orders here, not even army units, let alone employees.
Doing this kind of shit (and plain terrorist assassinations of physicists) only re-enforces Ahmadinejaad's power in Iran. It is not too difficult for state media there to display US, CIA and Israel as evil entities. So, this stupid "solution" to Iranian A-bomb problem actually made problem almost impossible to solve now.
Roles are switched: MS is re-implementing experience that users are already accustomed to on Linux (Android). And expecting 3rd party developers to switch or at least "also support" their platform for 1% of users.
I hope he stays in either UK or Sweden and never gets escorted to US. If you ask me, last president in charge there was Bill Clinton and I don't know who is in charge since then.
Hours after suspension of adult supervision, new CEO Larry Page gave Android Platform to Apple in exchange for remote controlled car and a two video games.
Also, I guess most of these patents are invalid outside the USA. While it is big market for personal computers, it is not so big market for mobile phones (10%). Maybe Google can even use chinese-search-engine tacticts: let customers suffer in one region for their own stupid laws.
Sadly, I don't think a software release will result in a democratic Iran. But it would be nice.
I see, so the main goal of US government is democracy in Iran... that definitely explains many weird things they do! And begs other questions... like whats wrong with democracy in Israel (with citizens being divided by religion they practice (!) to more and less equal) and/or occupied Palestine, and why it is so uninsteresting for that same US government?
Thats cool idea. Actually, if you think about it, when we started moving faster music became faster too. Maybe, if we still had to walk all the time, we would appreciate classical music more.
Thats exactly my original point: FreeBSD and Solaris (Windows, OSX) all have stable ABI but I am still using Linux with unstable ABI. Obviously Linux devs did some things more useful for me then maintaining stable ABI.
Stable ABI requires more resources for development (people, time, testing). Simple as that. Linux HQ decided that these resources are better spent somewhere else, like fixing security issues and overall improving. Bleeding edge graphic cards _are_ the problem for several months after introduction, but that sounds like acceptable trade off to me. Resources are always limited and trade off can only be moved elsewhere, but not eliminated.
No, it is mobile computing that worries Intel. ARM-based devices are set to take more then 10% of all US Internet browsing in 2011 with no signs of slowing down anytime soon. Intel is in the same situation as Microsoft: cutting prices to keep market share. AMD missed opportunity for mobile computing, they could use their CPU and GPU expertise and create chips for killing phones/pads. Instead, they wasted all their time on same-day compatibility with yet another DirectX version(s). Clearly, winners are consumers buying new computer/pad/phone this year. With so many players involved, prices will collapse.
From Intel technical paper: "If you use only Fair and Balanced (tm) data sources and your condom never brake, there is nothing in this feature to worry about."
Even if they succeed, it would matter only in US, which is some 30% of global IT market and shrinking. Google can take Android away from US market, just like it did in China. That would immediately ring bells in Washington.

I new these stupid "greens" are to blame here, I just couldn't find any way to connect emerging nuclear catastrophe with them. Thanks!
Thats was translation of metric units for US readers. Otherwise they would think microsecond is 1/12 second.
And perhaps more interestingly, "native client" is supported, which enables you to run c/c++ apps inside Chrome, sandboxed.
When I saw the headline, I thought: "Nokia is rolling out WordPerfect v7???"
That would actually make more sense.
Thank god they didn't use Yahoo! to organize themselves.
It is not exectly the same, but in USA this switch is called "Senator Joseph Lieberman (CT)" .

This is good idea for getting Al Jazeera viewable in US. News service that is, you know, available everywhere else in the world.
Obviously inspired by how Internet Explorer (tm) operates.

thankless bastards. I wander what happened with my own idea of Linux phone OS named "Android".
We all know in our western democratic society such thing as cyber police is unthinkable! (Rolls eyes)

"We consider all Mr. Zalewski claims invalid. Obviously he didn't contact Security Experts for IE in reality just like you cannot contact Santa".
My head is gonna explode...
