The problem isn't equal treatment of all traffic. Nobody would complain about FTP traffic being slowed during busy bursts to avoid interfering with voice traffic. It is the stated aim of some ISPs to throttle back certain sites unless you pay a premium. So Microsoft could agree to pay certain ISPs to advertise bing while at the same time making google very slow and barely usable. They could also undermine free sites by charging the provider to allow customers reasonable access, meaning that they have a charge to pass on somewhere. The end result will be the end of the free to access internet.

Its a shame they didn't know that before killing the touchpad... announcing that they are leaving the PC business..... announcing that they are not leaving it... and so on
In this case that would be a step in the right direction. Flash is much more widely available than Silverlight is at present.
Much as i don't like flash at least flash sites are accessible from Linux. I have been told that a few Silverlight sites work with moonlight but have not found any myself
Sphere packing is related to all crystalline structures, not just liquid crystals. This could have a profound impact on material science, as a whole.
I think this will be limited by the constraint on the maximum diameter, which will exclude most crystalline substances. It could have an impact on monomolecular wires though.
Note that the US, who in principle did not sign the Kyoto protocol, actually reduced emissions significantly (not just reduction in growth, but actual reduction) since 2007 due to the economic recession.
So, we don't want to reduce carbon emissions because it will hurt our economy - but hurt the economy and emissions automatically reduce. Sounds like a vicious cycle that needs a technological exit strategy to me.
Either you are wrong or the article's graph sourced from the US department of energy is. It shows no significant reduction, only a slight dip before a continued upward trend.
Another I know is using a Facebook/G+ cross poster.
Well his lifestyle choice is nobody's business but his own.I know that some fundamentalists would disapprove but I say if it works for him then he should be free to get on with it.

If it were the USA each would need a patent lawyer to make sure nobody made something tablet shaped, with buttons that can be clicked more than once, had wheels or anything else covered by patents.

Philips Unveils Sexy Urban Beehive Concept
I'll admit... it's entirely possible that I don't understand the meaning of that word.
Just in case you're mind's going where I think it is, on no account should you stick your dick in a beehive..... At least without smoking it first.

Sod the slashdor character filter .. thats 1+1/sin(Pi/5)
the 2.7013 is an approximation of 1+1/sin(/5)
Attacking first? What about the other countries that keep sending rockets into Israel and/or people bombing busses?
The liberals just see that as Muslims exercising their freedom of religion.
