Yeah, I don't think there are that many Open Source zealots doing that, unless you have a different definition to zealot than the rest of us. You know there are a lot of anti-Open Source people who also frequent slashdot?
What a stupid statement. This is not an unreasonable request, and is something that the US gov should have done a long time ago. Microsoft has produced such shitty browsers, they should in fact be banned from being allowed to produce such an important piece of software. Time and time again, even with ie8, they have shown themselves inept at producing quality, standards-oriented software.
The proof for BBC independence is that whatever government is in power, their supporters always claim the BBC is a puppet of the opposition. This is exactly how an unbiased news outlet should be perceived in my view.
What a stupid thing to say, this proves nothing.
And I am afraid that people in Britain are more worried about other things than the level of taxes it gets being changed by the gov.

There, fixed that for you.
But seriously, I usually do this through work mates, when I move to a new area, but my last position the workers were all stuck (not IT people), so I also relied on my facebook contacts.
Only if they have shareholders, because, the shareholders actually own the company. I mean, the shareholders could all get together and declare they don't want a profit this year, give it all to Africa, but that rarely happens.
Well, they don't work for everything, they don't provid universal coverage. I guess you will be happy when they are spaced every meter, capturing everything with 360 degree view.
So in some situations they don't work, congratulations on your great logic leap, suggesting they don't work for anything.
It seems those teenagers didn't knock some sense into you.
I am pretty sure that if you have never played some games, then you are not missing anything. Maybe your life revolves around games, but not everybody's.
The great breakthrough for flash I think was video, the fact that we don't need an embedded object like Quicktime or shitty Windows Media Player has made browsing a lot safer and stable.
and Adobe has announced a working Flash for iPhone, simply awaiting Apple's go-ahead.
Bullshit, this is a complete lie. They are still working on flash for the iphone, they certainly don't have it working yes, unless something has changed in the last days or so.
and of course, having a filesystem and a special MTD driver for *every single SSD drive manufactured*
If you need to go to the extreme, then you are probably wrong.
There is a step between no filesystem wear level algorithm, and one for every single drive manufactured.
That is the obvious solution, have some filesystem algorithms. Let the hardware tell us which one we should use, and use that one. Not such a big problem, is it, happens all the time.
Ok, good example, but it is the very first time Microsoft has made something so easy, good on ya Micrsoft, golf claps.
The reason we have a problem with this, is it is the first time Microsoft has done this, and every single other step of the way they have done the opposite, and been very closed.
So Microsoft are losing on the Zune, Xbox 360, so they decide to open it up, and complain because nobody else does.
Then on the stuff that they are winning, OS and Office, they keep it very closed, and a very strong control on it.
SO DO YOU FUCKING UNDERSTAND NOW, WHY WE ARE COMPLAINING, or is this too much for your to comprehend moron. I really enjoy explaining the same shit every day, to microsoft morons.
They couldn't be any worse than Micrsoft, could they. Nobody could be worse than Microsoft. A shitty company, that has trouble producing a decent OS in 6 years, and treats everyone they deal with like shit. Makes any other IT company look like a bunch of angels by comparison.
Better web browser?? have you seen Microsoft web browser, and compared it with apples?? I would prefer the iphones web browser to IE6 on a pc!
Microsoft should be banned for life from ever making a web browser again. They fucked it up everytime. And they can keep that shitty outlook email client as well.
Microsoft making better software than Apple? Than anyone? Don't make me laugh!
So everything sucks to you, the other mp3 players and the iPod, the other phones AND the iPhone. I think you are having some issues that only you can resolve.
No, what Apple does is not as important as what Microsoft does. Who really cares if we can't write our own version of iTunes, it is a very different matter to be able to connect to a Windows computer. These are not equal issues or companies. What Microsoft closeness has done for the IT industry is so much bigger than what Apple has done.
Maybe it isn't fair in your head, but it certainly is fair to bash Microsoft in the real world
To be isolationist about it: this is a stimulus from US taxpayers for the recovery of the US economy. Open Source knows no borders, stimulus into open source will benefit the whole world, not just the US.
Just because something helps the rest of the world, doesn't mean it doesn't help the US as well. Like developing new CPUs, I guess you would ban that, since it helps other countries as well. What an idiotic way to look at things.
It is the left that believes that people should have that high standard of living, with all its modern comforts, not the "true" right (if you consider the libertarian to be the "true right").
Now you are twisting things to fit your purpose. The left says no such thing, except for that people get paid a fair amount, and treated well in the workplace.
There are loads of jobs for PHP and MySQL, Apache, Linux, these are open source. They mean a lot of companies can exists and hire programmers without having to pay Microsoft for their inferior products.
And working in a university we produced loads of open-source software for Grid Computing, like OGSA stuff, Condor, etc...
So maybe you can stow your ignorance somewhere else.
Monopolies often start out that way, offering a superior service. Then, since they are a monopoly, they don't need to try anymore.
Now if Google stopped trying, and became inferior to Yahoo, Microsoft's offerings, then they would lose a lot of business. One of the reasons that it is clear that Google is not a monopoly. Having a large part of the market does not make you a monopoly.
Can you fucking tell the difference between telling people where drug dealers live, and SELLING A FUCKING MAP TO ALL THE DRUG DEALERS IN THE WORLD, you retarded monkey. Can you see that there would be some difference, or you too fucking retarded to do that simple task?

We certainly never did infinite populations in my course.

Fuck that, no way would I rather switch from alc to dope, that is just stupid.
Have you ever even smoked cannabis, it is certainly not normal to cause hallucinatory affects.
I thought for a decent sample size you should use a square root of the group size you are interested in. So for 10,000 people, you should sample 100??

When people hire a web developer, they usually want the resulting website to look good. Especially is a designer is involved as well.
It is more likely that they were smaller than we are now, since the Universe has expanded quite a lot in the intervening years.

Very much like the astrogator, with one minor draw back. It only works from one position.
