The Jabber protocol is just a basic set of rules. Nearly everything is a extension. It doesnt mean that every server doesnt support them.
I remember reading something about Google opening their voip stuff for everyone to use. I'm not completely sure as I dont have a use for that feature.
Jabber is *somewhat* bigger than one or two servers.:P
I didnt think there were any Jabber only clients. All the multi-protocol ones support Jabber though. I know Kopete supports the transports which a few servers have enabled. And if you run your own server then you can enable all the transports you want.
No. XML is a format designed to transmit data between machines, not for data storage.
Imagine a 50 gigabyte database. I have one. Now imagine the same database in XML. The size would explode and you suddenly have to seek the entire db for a simple select.
Offline messages: XEP-0013 File transfer: XEP-0096 VOIP: Cant find the spec but Google added it I think. Webcam: I dont think there is any standard *yet* There are also plenty of features the other IM protocols dont have.
All the big servers have had releases in the last two months and when on earth did Psi, Adium, Kopete, etc... throw in the towel?
Its because having the GPS satellites moving is more accurate and more importantly, cheaper. You dont need anywhere near as many satellites.
Again, radio beacons have the same problem. Whats cheaper? 30 or so satellites covering the entire globe or peppering radio towers *everywhere* (including the middle of oceans)?
People want to have their cake and eat it as well.
They will do anything possible to be environmentally friendly as long as they dont have to change their habits, spend money or essentially do anything at all.
If the alternatives were cheap, they would be in place now. Coal + sequestration is still *significantly* cheaper than solar and will be for the next 20 years at least.
And dont mention Hydro. The greenies hate that because it destroys habitats.:)
If you've been kidnapped, I believe the whole idea is to let the authorities find you.
This only becomes a problem if they start telling the telcos that Mr Xyz is missing when he isnt. And then the lawsuit would be quite straight forward. Mr Xyz knows that he wasnt missing and can probably back that up.

Making a chip output the console to HDMI with 16k lines?
Pretty cool in my books.

You've been hearing shit.
Why do we care?
With OLED displays, adding more colours should become a lot easier.
I thought we had decided the whole Gillette thing wasnt innovating? :P
This is just adding more detail to the colours.
But you are more distracted than being focussed on the road.
If your mind is wandering while driving then thats probably just as dangerous.
Companies can try and censor things.
They typically go for lawsuits as the means to censor though.
Of course there is nothing we can do about it part from ditching MSN (did it last year).
Google can try a lawsuit though.
Yeah everyone should just use Jabber. :)
Superior in basically every way except for a few minor features lacking and no one can control it.
Um...I dont use it on my Palm Lifedrive because there is no Wifi support yet but Opie is freaking fantastic.
They've done a magnificent job with it.
He's daring them to do it so I think he doesnt think its a career ender.
Wine executes the bytecode natively, only providing the APIs that the programs are expecting.
The others actually emulate a CPU.
Wine is not a emulator.

You cant win against them.
I'm pissed that its CO2 going down in to the underground caverns.
It would be far more efficient if it was nuclear waste.

We can replace our .com and .net domains with .org and other tlds.

Dell, Mac or get a tech friend to make you one at three quarters of the price.
All get around having to buy a copy of Vista.
We can boycott Verisign in addition to Vista. :P
I think more people need to use it for it to work better.
Actually its looking at the network path.
Not directly but via what CDN's each user sees.
Any real power saving technologies require a lot of time to recover from.
In a datacenter thats unacceptable.
Yeah its only a different hemisphere. A walk in the park.
The Arduino http://www.arduino.cc/ is great for that.
Plug USB in and start programming in dead simple C.
