No, it isn't. No media at all is always is better than censored media. Censored media allows the censors to maintain control. Without any media, people are in fact freer to form their own opinions rather than having opinions supplied to them
That may be so, but is censored media with a not that it's censored better than plain censored media? I think so, and that's what Google's been doing. Obviously it's better to have uncensored media, but if Google leaves, then other search engines are just going to jump in, but won't do people the service of notifying them when they are censoring results.
The issue is that DRM really doesn't help all that much to stop piracy. In order to be effective, the DRM has to work against EVERY SINGLE PERSON. As soon as one person cracks it, they throw up the torrent of the DRM-free version and that's where all the casual pirates get it from. No expertise is needed on the general pirate parts, just one hacker.
With the game Spore, it was very obvious that the DRM had been cracked - the game was one of the most pirated ever, but it was also highly profitable. The only thing was the paying users had to deal with a crappy DRM system, while the pirates didn't. People still bought the game though despite getting a worse version AND having to pay for it. Just think how many people would pay if it were an equal version!
My program is a third-party application that works with another program. It needs to start this up automatically, and if it was installed properly (the other program) then there should be no problem for the user since the path will be in the registry. If they didn't do that, then they have the option of setting the path manually. If they don't do that, then they get this error message telling them to set the path before they can do anything that would need it.
I've had problems with users ignoring the errors that tell them exactly what they need to do to fix the problem. In one case, the user needs to set the directory path to a program (usually can find it in the registry, but sometimes it's installed wrong). They will copy the message that says where to set it and send it to me. I'll then respond with just about the exact same message and the problem will be solved. This isn't something that's so much an error, but part of the setup process the user skipped over.
If you look at trial, she seems pretty guilty. Changed her story multiple times, falsely accused someone else. The other person convicted was involved with her, not instead.
I'm guessing that the price of electricity isn't going to stay constant if there is inflation, so it'll be higher than that. Plus, after it's paid off, they will still be saving money so they'll get an even higher ROI.
From what I've heard, 1&1 is great - unless you want to leave them. I've used their domain services for a while without problems, but I've heard from numerous people that canceling any of their services has problems.
When I was in Silicon Valley last year of course I had to stop by this place to check it out. Well I knew it was a good sign when there was just a box of free stuff outside (mostly broken crap and old software). Inside there's the show room area but then there's just the whole back full of isles of stuff that most geeks have in their basement (err bedroom).
One of the nice things was they had an area you could take stuff to test if it worked before buying it. For a lot of the stuff that would be important to do as I don't think they're in the business of doing returns.
Remember that a lot of this money being spent on NASA is going back into the economy. NASA does the research and pays the smart engineers who then spend that money in other places and release their research to the public.
Also, NASA gets less than $20 billion, which in comparison to a lot of other programs, has good returns. Compare that to the war efforts which cost over 10 times that and kill off our citizens instead.
It's not like they just did it on a whim. They did research with usability between different models before settling on the current one. I don't see why you need any of the other stuff anyways, so the fade just helps you cut out the clutter and zero in on the search bar when you load the page.
Actually it's interesting if you take out one of the 20 minute reels, you end up with Superman dying on the kryptonite island, then cut to him in the hospital with everything ok.

Good thing it's been passed by the house and senate already in some form so we know it's democracy.

I don't quite see what evolution has to do with having a less advanced car...
Same reason I switched from my talking tube to cellphone for communications. It works better.

nothing says "I like penis" like owning something from Apple.
Fixed that for you.

I'd keep the dvd drive around at least so you can make some backups or live disks

So that everyone else doesn't have to check, there isn't actually a porn website called "Sisinternals"...yet.
There's an idea!
Some game publisher should start releasing whatever crappy game, but include more and more layers of DRM. First one to get the torrent up wins!
Relatedly, according to Wikipedia, Japan is planning to fly its own stealth fighter, the ATD-X, which we have previously discussed, in 2011.
Funny I don't remember talking about that. Must still need to do some catching up on /.

Personally I'm hoping for an iPhone Shuffle.
Actually the full 127/8 is reserved for loopback. So 127.43.222.5 works just as well as 127.0.0.1
Really? I got a message saying my browser couldn't display any of the video types in the new Opera

You can read about it on their blog:

That's not really news since it's actually in the summary.
I wouldn't call the greedy since otherwise they would need to charge money for it.
More like YOU are greedy for wanting a free service without letting Google have a way to profit from it.
