But kids will happily get their hands on pens, paper clips, random tools (screwdriver?), forks, tweezers, keys and coins. In fact, you would be amazed what kids get their hands on in the course of 30 seconds.
Wow, you didn't read my post. It's 2 cards vs 1 card. You need 1 card with the virtualization technology mentioned, and you need 2 with the ways you were describing.
From what I understand, they virtualize the WiFi card into two devices, the access point (so other computers can connect to your "access point") and the client (so you can get the internet access from a wireless access point).
This isn't even remotely ad-hoc networking. This is turning a regular computer into an access point. You can also connect to one wireless network, then set yourself up as an access point to that network, which normally would require two separate network cards.
Mods, please RTFS. People saying "Ad-hoc has been around for years" and similar keep getting all the mod points, even though they're completely missing the point. Apple has something like this since Leopard, not anytime before like everyone here keeps mentioning.
Those teabagger nutjobs that say we shouldn't have a public option are a minority. Over 70% of us think we should have the public option according to many polls. It's those morons in congress who played their cards wrong, and didn't start from a negotiating position. They gave up their farther-left approach for something more moderate off the bat, and lost a way to keep their target easily.
Also, I have no problem with government. If it works for me, and works for my family, and works for my friends, then it's right. A lot more people think this way than you believe, it's just they're 'misinformed' at best, and manipulated at worst, about what changes will actually happen when a piece of legislation is introduced.
This, however, assumes the US will become irrelevant. It seems to be heading that way; however, that isn't enough to make that judgment yet. Speculation of the future is nothing more than just that.
I was just trying to point out that the strength of the US throughout history is its ability to integrate the best aspects of other societies and cultures into its own blend, and that emulating the other big guy isn't a bad thing.
My concern for the US isn't the ability to use methods we find beneficial; I worry about our ability to shed those things that seem beneficial at first, but don't survive long-term, such as a market with a small number of hugely influential competitors. This is one thing we haven't had to do in the past, because the ideas used were very carefully selected. Now, it seems like we're grabbing more than the small aspects we could use, taking much more than we used to.
What I would like to see is whether China survives long-term, with or without the US. With the US, I bet they would. We consume much of their production. Without, I'm not as sure, but it's fairly likely they'd become the world's production powerhouse rather than one country's. Until someone new rises and does it cheaper, of course.
...nobody in the world speaks Chinese and Arabic? Last time I checked, they're not on the same keyboard. There's a multitude of languages that aren't on the same keyboard. Chinese keyboards don't always even have English on them.
We also saw how well communist ideas worked for Russia (from our perspective) during the early 40's, and actually did things that headed us ever so slightly in the direction of communism. (You can definitively say that social security is a small step in that direction, considering the generally "free market" position of the country beforehand.) We saw many, many state-sponsored programs emerge during that time, when Russia was actually something to be reckoned with. Do you think that this time, the aspects we see as working the best for our main competitors that we integrate will destroy us, or will we have another pullback from the edge of going down the path others have?
Accessing it in either case involves using either your hands or a program, and it's not plainly visible in the sense that it's a postcard when we talk about email.
If you didn't know you could use a system restore point, and didn't make one before you started messing around in the registry, you shouldn't be in the registry anyway.
You seem to imply CSIRO didn't work for their money, despite inventing, and testing, the technology that a very, very large number of people use daily. That qualifies as then not being a troll, and it qualifies the companies as trying to weasel out of something so small, the payment for the use of their patented technology, it's absurd.
Also, do you think that any company would put that much of the 200 million dollars into research on this one technology? Any company would take that money and run, and usually only come up with an incremental upgrade to what we have now, if anything at all.
We then also have to pay for all of those idiots hospital bills if they survive, and their funerals if they don't. We have to pay for the cleanup of those crashes, the police to cordon off the area, the firefighters to put out the burning wreck, and we all have a longer commute to work because their brain takes longer to pick up from the roadway.
So, either way we're going to have to do something or pay, which would you rather it be?
I think part of the reason for this is that it's not a mandatory upgrade. People were forced into the Wiimote if they wanted any new Nintendo console games, and they then decided they liked it. They didn't choose the Wii because of the controls; they chose the Wii because the one adventurous dude they know did, and word of mouth took over.
Also, late addons fail because of market factors too. The addon is more expensive because of the low volume, it's more prone to breakage due to less testing and potentially worse manufacturing, which then kills the word of mouth these innovations rely on, and the addon fails. Could you imagine the problems we might have heard if the Wiimote was a literal addon for GameCube, rather than basically repackaged with it?
Maybe, just maybe, they made the boundaries of the powers vague because they really didn't know exactly where all of them should be put? They may have figured some issues needed to be ironed out, and rather than make a structure taking a side, they should make a structure that would let the states and federal government figure it out along the way.

Politicians can only put in provisions that give money to friends and family if they pass a dumb law with said provisions.

The maze is a perfect scenario.

You obviously aren't familiar with the US.

In a way that requires proving that someone stole, rather than a simple accusation maybe?
Accessing it in either case involves using either your hands or a program, and it's not plainly visible in the sense that it's a postcard when we talk about email.
....which, with each change, would be written to a different block...
I don't. It requires more jumps in eye movement than a normal post, where you slide across the words.
If you didn't know you could use a system restore point, and didn't make one before you started messing around in the registry, you shouldn't be in the registry anyway.
The majority of people who would use iTunes would have a iPod or iPhone anyway, as there's really no other reason to.
Even more important:
Would Disney ever follow through afterwords? Would Disney lose a lawsuit if they didn't?
You just formatted it that way to make your argument look longer and more sophisticated.
You seem to imply CSIRO didn't work for their money, despite inventing, and testing, the technology that a very, very large number of people use daily.
