"Broadband Reports explains that Texas Representative Pete Sessions is trying to pass the "Preserving Innovation in Telecom Act of 2005" (HR2726), which would ban towns and cities from wiring themselves for broadband.
However Sessions is not only a 16 year ex-SBC employee, his wife works for Cingular, and he holds half a million dollars in SBC stock options, according to an e-mail being circulated today by media reform outfit Free Press.
"Congressman Sessions is the latest poster child for corruption on Capitol Hill," says Josh Silver, executive director of Free Press."
I hate it when something has to look like something else, eg. webmail like outlook. That's why I hate KDE because it tries too hard to look like windows. If you want to 'convert' people offer them something better, not similar.
Most of those 100 developers (80!) are pain Sun employees - the article states that there are "less than 10 active external coders involved in the project".
This is about share price. Nothing else. Fire a bunch of people and some similar shenanigans so that the share price would increase and those shareholders can cash in and go off to do the same to other companies.
It has nothing to do with what's good for the company, just what's profitable in the immediate for those particular shareholder.
Same thing is happening at Time Warner, with one of the corprorate raiders of the 1980s who's now one of their shareholders and making a noise for them to sell off lots of good stuff and repurchase their shares so that the share price would increase and he would cash in.
Children are not just someone's property, they're also members of society and its budding new generation. Society has a responsibility towards them and so, as you often get, some children are taken from their parents and put in foster care. That's why it's not up to the parents whether they feed or ignore their kids, or whether they deprive them of proper education; you can't just lay the blame on the parents and pretend their child is like their house or car, they can run it down or wreck it, heck, even houses and cars are required to abide by regulations for good upkeep.
What does it mean to the user? Does it mean you just plug in your computer to a socket in the wall without any changes to the building? Are new wires required?
Hey, if she doesn't want to wait she can pay for it - there is still private sector healthcare and private insurance in Europe, and if she can't pay for it in Europe then she won't be able to pay for it in the US and it'd much better an operation in 6 months than none.
Being unemployed in France is a lot, a lot better than being an employed worker in the US who can't afford health insurance. In france you get universal high quality healthcare, education, and social help with many, many more things. My ex-wife was French and I was very, very impressed with how excellent and egalitarian their social services are. Not that we used them, but she was the product of their fine education, and I once had a look at her health records she took when she changed country to be with me, which impressed me with how very thorough and comprehensive the medical care their kids get.
No that's not fair. Your argument would be like saying windows marketing is just the same as OSS advocacy, when windows is a closed source lock-in product and linux is open source.
Sooo right! He won't be taking it into battle. It would be staying in his room just like the dorm. Just get a regular laptop and don't buy something rugged and expensive like a toughbook.
I've been in the situation many times where I left things in white-collar work fridges and had them stolen or used, eventhough it's always been clear that they shouldn't be.
Why would well-paid people do such petty things, as stealing your food?
There's *no* "the great debate" on ozone. Just like there's *no* "the great debate" on global warming. Just like there's *no* "the great debate" on evolution.

"XP comes nowwhere near, OSX does a bit but in many ways BeOS is still ahead of its time." I've never used it, In what way is BeOS "still ahead"?
Hence it's a 'national OS'
