Absolutely. Don't take this as 'EVE doesn't work on Linux'. It does, it just needs Wine. Hopefully this'll see CCP spending more time contributing to Wine's source rather than to Transgaming's wallet.
Loads of people use EVE under Wine. Many did before the Linux client release, hence the slow/nonexistent takeup.
OK, I'll bite.
Rails scales perfectly well if you know how to write apps that scale. I know of several websites that handle millions of hits per day (try the Yellow Pages website- recently reimplemented in Rails with no issues whatsoever).
Twitter's picked on because actually it's not brilliantly well-written, and wasn't managed particularly well. See the example of the cdbaby guy who gave up because he didn't know how to write Ruby and just went back to PHP which was heralded as a 'why Ruby sucks' advert..
Rails as a framework is eminently scalable. If you think otherwise, you're eminently stupid.
Yup. The oil on your fingers is enough to set 'em off, pretty much. Latex gloves and a microfibre cloth are pretty much standard issue for changing bulbs where I work, though we've got a 20 year old lighting stock with 2,000W Strand Cadenzas..:p
Speaking as someone who does edit on WN, there's a process- you write your article and usually share it with several others in development with the {{develop}} tag, and then when it's ready to go you tag it with the {{ready}} template. Peer review decides when to put the {{publish}} template on, where it is subsequently 'released' by an administrator (Added to the homepage and so on).
I believe the censorship in question took place while the article was being reviewed for release.
And very nice they are, too.
I personally could see these things taking off with developers- especially the younger generation, especially if the interface is nice and polished.
Amen to that- I did notice the 'What OS do you use?' poll on the technology website (Bookmarked for convenience)- it was certainly a much larger number than 600 people. Unfortunately I can't find the damn thing- but think 10-25% of 50,000+ voters, if memory serves.
Thank you very much, good sir- looks like a nice site. Cheers for the link.
And yes, it's getting a tad silly with all these 'crackdowns' on science and learning tools- quite frankly, it's ridiculous. Unless the US government really is trying to *make* their country's next generation utterly inane and blind to the facts of science..
It's certainly the biggest factor- that of convenience. Actually, ITMS is hugely convenient for iPod owners and other people wanting everything to just work- especially with the DRM-free stuff, it's certainly a great application.
Wrong- TC will let you make a disk which is actually two disks (It's impossible to tell which is which). The thing there is that you hide stuff in one part which isn't too hot (legal porn, etc) and then use the other part of the disk to store the really hot stuff, and select which you want to access by using one key or the other. So when the cops come you just give them one set and they go 'Oh. OK.'
Really, I quite like iTunes. It's a very sorted program- yes, it's a bit fatter than is could get away with, but the advantages outweigh the disadvantages imho. I'm not too concerned about losing 25MB (It's never gone over that) memory usage on XP, even with a 512MB system. It's a fantastic interface, very clean and smooth, and it's well organised.
Apparently GoDaddy have been encouraged by Microsoft to migrate all their Apache-operated parking servers (A goodly chunk of things these days) to IIS purportedly to affect statistics such as those.
They exist- there's professional solutions like the Klark Teknik (http://klarkteknik.com) DN6000, which I have one of- then you need the calibrated microphone, a CD of pink noise, and off you go.
I personally have a £10k ($20k) PA system I use for concerts I organise- a 3 kilowatt Electrovoice Xds sub, and two 2 kilowatt Xcn mid/highs. I use Genelecs for monitors.
And hell yes you can tell the difference. You can easily tell between 320k MP3, 320K AAC (Or other lossless) and 320K CD. The latter two not so well but MP3 definately. It loses all the definition, and gives sound a muddy texture.
.. except the shuttle's arm cannot survey the underside of the shuttle, thus making all underside assessments crew-only operations. It's technically infeasible to do anything else given the stress of reentry upon the underside. The ISS is ideally placed to review everything properly.
... the Mactablet? I need a decent tablet, and Apple seems to be lining itself up for the ideal position to release one in. Decent touchpads, thin computers... logical, no?
I'm a paid subscriber to DI.fm, and shortly after reading this article hopped over there with a view to making sure they were participating. Happily, they are. DI.fm serve a huge number of people, many of them subscribers- and I am perfectly happy to be bereft of my DI.fm for a day. That's what it'll take to get more people in on this. And so say we all.

Absolutely. It's one of the best things about the game- it really is a virtual world, a different league altogether from other MMORPGs.
Taserphone?
And here is that plot...

Correct- TrueCrypt has support for hidden and public volumes, both of which can use entirely seperate keys/keyfiles.

Or Wash. Serenity's ending was... mediocre. 'Hey, let's randomly kill off an epic character!'

Wait a minute, that link has a search string at the end! Someone call Amazon!

I'd expect never if I ran Vista Business edition of any sort. Of course, expectation and reality are different things...
What else can I say? I agree.
