Interesting, I wasn't aware that it was legal in the UK to hold women down against their will so you can put your privates into theirs while they scream at you to stop. Maybe they have bigger issues if that's true.
Not the countries in dark green are highest, and the red countries are lowest. I think the pretty pictures should explain it all to you so you can understand.
Because export is a specific term, if you wanted to discuss net exports, then you should say net exports. Don't complain that the number he gave for exports was incorrect then prove it by showing net exports.
You mean the internal Samsung powerpoint presentation where they listed out the comparison between their products and the iPhone and how they should copy the iPhone software functionality point by point wasn't clear enough evidence suggesting they intentionally copied iPhone software functionality for you?
They've invested more in R&D than anyone else in the industry
There won't be one because Microsoft invests more in R&D than any other tech company BY FAR. Now how much of that is actually useful or makes it into an actual product is another concern all together.
far more has been copied from them than MS.
Perhaps in certain sectors, but I'd call shenanigans on this one as well. Not only from Microsoft but from other big players like IBM as well.
You can't say exporter and then try to refer to net exports. The US is the largest exporter in the world, we just so happen to also import a lot.
In 2010, I see (in billions USD): "Agricultural products, total": 58.0 export = 58.0 "Livestock and livestock products": 1.5 export = 1.5 "Fish, Fresh or chilled, and other marine products": 4.0 export = 4.0 "Food and kindred products": 50.9 export = 50.9
Total : 58+1.5+4+50.9=114.4 in 2010. Not a hard stretch to imagine 120 in 2012.
When they start offering a clean air tax that people in the country pay to help cover the costs of keeping the air clean high populated areas, then it's fair. When they start talking about a crime tax that people in small communities pay to ensure an equal crime free big city neighborhood, then it is fair. When they start talking about road congestion tax so that we can build roads everywhere that have 1 car on them for miles in any direction, then it's fair. When they start talking about noise tax that people in the country pay to help subsidize noise reducing things in the big city like noise dampening walls around highways, building walls, etc, then its fair.
People who move to rural areas do so because the benefits they get are more important than the down sides. Not everything is equal, nor should anyone expect them to be. I want to live in a big city where it's crime free, pollution free (air, water, noise), traffic free, and serene. Tax those country folks into oblivion so we can afford that for the masses!
Because you are focusing on the end user rather than the producer. If you take something, without paying for it when you are legally required to is called what?
Small children also know it's wrong to take things without paying for them. What is your point? That you think of things in terms of small children?
There were once a lot of really smart people that said sailing around the earth was impossible too, and they proved it -- because the earth was flat.
All it takes is one of today's assumptions to be proven wrong or inaccurate, and suddenly things that were once thought possible become possible. Saying something is flat out impossible, is usually wrong. It may just take a few hundred years to prove it, but it'll get proven false.
Sort of, except with multipath TCP, your "command line file download tool" would just be wget. There wouldn't be a need for a separate tool usually for doing multipath transfers aggregating the links. It all happens at a lower level in the TCP/IP stack. Now you could create a multipath aware wget-like tool (mpwget?) that would allow you finer control over the aggregation that would differ from the system default.
Nah. My NAS (low end) maxes out my 1Gbps connection easily, and they claim I can team two 1Gbps connections together and it will fill them up. Based on the CPU usage and I/O, I'd say that it could do much more than that if it had better connectivity options. It's not unreasonable to need 10Gbps connections, although yes, to actually use all the bandwidth between any two connections would be more difficult. Most enterprise SANs and some NASs use RAM and SSDs as caching mechanisms and can easily saturate a 10Gbps link itself.
10Gbps = 1250MBps. My OCZ Revo could saturate that, easily.
Gigabit isn't difficult at all. I max out my gigabit network between my main computer and my NAS quite easily. Well, using 95% of it anyhow -- over windows shares none the less. I'm sure I could do better with a protocol that uses less overhead and better windowing.
And the ability to play one video file (h.264) on everything I own is enough to swing my support for h.264. I'd rather not have to transcode videos just because someone had a philosophical issue that doesn't have any other tangible effect than fear mongering.
And why would you not be able to rely on hardware decoding on the desktop? Every video card released by nvidia in the past 8 years has hardware decoding on it.
XP does/did. Every Nvidia card and integrated chipset with onboard video made since 2004 has had h.264 hardware decoding included, with the exception of the 6100 made around the same time.

So by your argument, pretty much anything I use in my daily life would become a "sign of addition"
No, anything you do in your daily life, and then decide to do something *extra* would become a "sign of addition".

Apple is more like IPP. Invent/Innovate, Patent, Profit.
Wait, what is wrong with that again?

I hope you didn't post that from your phone, because I'm patenting "Anonymous Coward".... "on a phone"!
Nah, it's exact. Exactly 2% with a confidence level of +-98%.
FTL is not possible. Period.

Based on the experience of 802.11a/g/n in my house, you'd have to fit 270 cars in 10'.

WebM ins't on par with h.264, and there are numerous comparisons/reviews that say as much. I've never seen one that claimed they were equal.
And why would you not be able to rely on hardware decoding on the desktop? Every video card released by nvidia in the past 8 years has hardware decoding on it.
