He has probably been financed&backed&induced to do this by the big-money/telco monopolist circles, and is now doing their bidding in order to weaken opposition.
It is evident that due to their corporate heritage/understanding, they still think that they can manipulate the whole world by dealing with a number of big corporations.
So, novell, red hat and similar will succumb to their schemes, and we, millions of developers, system admins, it managers will oblige by them ? duh ?
am i missing something here ? we 'the people' in the field were the ones to make linux come to where it is today, not the single handed effort of any company. zillions of our contribs made linux come to this point.
not only that, but we as a whole are the bulk of the community that will advise our top brass, decision-makers, bugdet planners, policy-makers in our corporations and workplaces as to what should be the best course to take.
we did not oblige by microsoft crap then, and you can easily deduct that we will never do. and you can guess that our advice/move on that matter would be to avoid more microsoft crap.
we will just scratch anybody who deals with microsoft to that kind of harmful extent, and build on something new. im not putting a prophecy here - im talking about the social dynamics and previous experience - new distros can be done, new platforms can be put together, even now-obscure operation systems/platforms may rise to prominence.
this is the power of people. microsoft has rowed against the river before, got carried away with it, STILL trying to do as such. do not make the same mistake again. and as for novell, we are already wary about you.
do not take these as the babblings of a fanatic - this is being spoken from bitter experience with these stuff and a great deal of practical concerns.
Open source programs do not install/run/modify themselves.
Small businesses, estores using open source programs employ much more developers around the world to modify and twist the open source programs than microsoft does for its own work in total. Hence open source programs provide immeasurable variety and adaptability to the degree that they can fit a canadian kilt sales store's needs and japanese bansai tree distributor's needs at the same time. Can start such examples now and we wont be finished by 2 days from now.
Your much touted closed source produced stuff cant provide this flexibility. they are hard and stiff. they force the users to play by their rules, whereas open source plays by the users' rules.
If you can elaborate on how is it hard fighting against wireless net and power, you would do a great service in easing my mind at least - hope is much needed.
First, what i meant is the end machine efficiency - and in the end, compared with all the other heating methods you describe, electricity heating might still come up on par.
And the point you are missing is that, we can GENERATE electricity, as opposed to our need to deplete already scarce resources while using other means of energy - petroleum, gas, wood, coal etc.
If need be, and sufficient amount of research and funds pour in, i believe that more efficient ways of generating electricity can be found.
People would heat their homes with electricity rather than have to pay for gas or oil, even though it's less efficient.
that, you are in err here.
heating by electricity is the most power efficient heating, due to the fact that as far as i know the 'resistor' is the most efficient machine ever known to mankind - it transforms 99% percent of the input power to the desired result - heat.
if i obtain a receptor unit (for the energy) and use it, who is going to know that i am using it and how much i am using it ? how they are gonna keep control on wireless power ?
well, but what about the possibilities ? is it impossible that there would be stuff that might be affected by related wavelengths in our body, or our environment, or critical apps, like flight instruments medical instruments etc ?
Slashdot Mirror
yea and it also occasionally has security holes that quickly compromise a server.
and how so ? it is losing profits at all fronts and frantically imitating other companies ?
but 'the people' are way too many
He has probably been financed&backed&induced to do this by the big-money/telco monopolist circles, and is now doing their bidding in order to weaken opposition.
but the opposition is big and getting bigger.
Who do you think will win ?
Yea microsoft, you didnt have any right on any single shit in linux, but hey, you still decided to provide us who use it with indemnification.
apparently toes at microsoft are unaware of what their head is thinking.
Microsoft is SOOOOO stupid in that matter.

red hat has the go for now.
Its a trap !
and other amazing consequences ?

thats what we were talking about - combine wireless power with electricity heating. And use alternative sources to generate electricity.
If you can elaborate on how is it hard fighting against wireless net and power, you would do a great service in easing my mind at least - hope is much needed.
And to the creatures of the dark & night that dwell within them !!!
Three cheers for linux monitoring music and the server room symphony !!!

Yea, and grid delivery gets disrupted often due to storms etc as you said.
hence what i think is, wireless power (safe, if it can be) and electric heating would serve best, both in terms of efficiency and reliability.
it seems sooner or later public should file against such big-money control practice.
what if some non-profit 'foundations' or ad-supported broadband providers offer wireless broadband free ?
well said ! very well put !

how so ?
if i obtain a receptor unit (for the energy) and use it, who is going to know that i am using it and how much i am using it ? how they are gonna keep control on wireless power ?
so you say in 100 years time or shorter noone will resist wireless internet and power ? is that it ?
well, but what about the possibilities ? is it impossible that there would be stuff that might be affected by related wavelengths in our body, or our environment, or critical apps, like flight instruments medical instruments etc ?
i dont get it ?
So wireless networking was bad for their agenda, and they tried to bar it, but they are touting wireless power ?
and they clamped down on him.
This time no big-money interest is going to hamper it ? whats the catch ?
how we brutally slaughter chicken for taste.

Who knows, some might think that this is a 'free for all' planet, and might decide to help themselves
