I get to see first hand how socialized health care can't possibly fuck the American public worse than we get it now.
To me it sounds like we might loosen the requirements for the existing Medicare/Medicaid programs to include your brother, but I don't agree that the program should be expanded to every citizen of the nation.
a) I didn't say that I was a full-time Linux user at home.:) I currently dual-boot, and I'll probably switch over full-time the next time I build a new machine, and I'll be able to run Source engine games well in Wine. My current hardware struggles to play those games natively in Windows. (on a related note, my machine also isn't good enough to smoothly run VMs)
b) Most Linux users would be perfectly happy with a Perl/Python/shell script that did the same thing, while Windows users greatly prefer GUIs.
c) I'm currently working on rewriting FlacSquisher so that it will run well in Mono; I just have to change some of the threading code. Maybe some day I'll rewrite it in GTK... (never done GTK before)
Yes, but after only a few uses of a blade, it will start to chip and break, and if you don't clean the blood off of it right away, it will make some serious pits in the metal.
A blade is a good thing to have, but should never be used as a primary weapon. Depending on the type of zombies you're facing, you may not even want them within your blade's reach (think of Boomers from Left 4 Dead, or other zombies where bodily fluid contact is a very bad thing).
Unplug all network cables from the machine, and shut off the wireless radio, and you pretty much have what you're asking for. Why is this insufficient?
That's something you really, truly, cannot do with torrents, because you can write your own torrent that ignores the tracker's rules on DHT.
Nobody would bother. This isn't like on private sites, where you can hack your client into reporting that you uploaded 2TB today to give you more credit, the only benefit from using a hacked client on MS's servers is a possibility that you'll acquire peers more quickly.
The main cause of this is having the number of concurrent connections too high. If you set the default pretty low (10-20?), then most users shouldn't see any issues.
In any reasonable OO language, it's simple to let the language compare your new Data Types.
Using Java as an example, just inherit the Comparable interface, then implement the compareTo() method to output whatever metric you want to compare the elements with. If you have the elements inside a standard Collection, then Collection.sort() will sort the elements by using the compareTo() method.
Hopefully companies are paying their developers more than $40 per day:).
Depends on whether those jobs have been sent overseas.
On a related note, I'm genuinely curious: what's the average salary for developers look like in the countries to which companies often outsource work, like India and China?
It'd be more like if Ford had a contract with a certain steel company to produce all steel for the Mustang until 2015, and Ford one day announces that they're making a new car that has exactly the same components as the Mustang, but isn't officially a Mustang, so they aren't contractually obligated to keep the same steel supplier.
One of my CS professors in college said something I wrote down, because it was a great quote, especially since he has a very thick Czech accent. Here's the quote, with all grammatical mistakes intact:
"When you pick up phone at your house, it just works. You don't wait two minutes to boot up, then it gives you blue screen of death."
I have a feeling (and I hope) that this will get used about as often as "Compatibility Mode" is now. From the end-user's perspective, it's a last-resort tool they can try if they're attempting to run an old, unmaintained app. From the programmer's perspective, they'd better update their software, or else they can expect tons of support calls to which the answer will be instructions on how to enable XP Mode on their app.

Can we just all agree that we haven't had a good president in at least 60 years?
Can you be my facebook friend? Can I follow your twitter feed?
You must be new here.
The correct way to say it is: "Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter."

And if it becomes a pandemic, and thousands or hundreds of thousands are known to be infected in a major city...
Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Just hope that it doesn't feed on nuclear energy, like the Andromeda Strain does.
You don't have to reload a blade.
Yes, but after only a few uses of a blade, it will start to chip and break, and if you don't clean the blood off of it right away, it will make some serious pits in the metal.

Second, this particular "victim" has perhaps the largest-trafficed site in the world. They don't need any help.
Pirate Party != The Pirate Bay
Especially true when speaking of the German Pirate Party. The Swedish Pirate Party has a slightly closer association.
Unplug all network cables from the machine, and shut off the wireless radio, and you pretty much have what you're asking for. Why is this insufficient?
It's because 90% of /. readers browse /. using their Windows work machines, then go home and use Linux.

"cable modem freeze"

Steam uses a CDN, not torrents.
WoW uses bittorrent for the weekly patches though.
If you're smart enough to get the RC running, you know how to re-install XP.
Also, if you're smart enough to get the RC running, you know how to get your data off a hard drive with a disabled OS.

It would be an apt idea to try out a few other systems again. RPM a lot more yummy than in the past.
/facepalm
Are you sure it wasn't two hundred cents?
I believing in fairy tails is kinda dumb
I know! Everyone knows fairies have wings -- but tails? That's ludicrous!

Or maybe if someone decides to deprecate your method just to spite you?

It'd be even better if it included PeerGuardian as part of the application bundle as well.

Mods; this is not a troll.
Parent post is the best example I've ever seen of a post that should be modded Informative.
I'd do both, personally. Some devices don't work completely to spec, so do a cable test, then make sure your device works properly over that cable.
