Are you, or are you not asking you to be paid PROFIT on what you are going to sell ?
free market my ass. its about YOU. YOU are taking things freely from public, and selling to public with a price on it. the market being 'free' or not doesnt have anything to do with it. its YOU.
because some people need to make money on what they built on things created from accumulated knowledge of mankind.
see, you take freely from public - anything - then put something on top of it, and then demand stuff from the public for your addition.
and suddenly, because you just added a small piece of crap COMPARED TO what you have built that on (start from fire and end it with electricity), you end up fulfilled your obligation to the public, and just and fair in your demands.
that is despite if, you had to actually pay for what you were taking back from public, you would have to work for hundreds of lifetimes to even come close.
but its ok to take freely and not give freely. ironically, you will see that same thing in the right-wing mindset of the fiscal conservatives ; they make use of ANYthing in public domain exceedingly freely, but, they start demanding a lot of things in return while trying to hold everything off from the public.
As you remember from the slashdot articles of the time, there is an internet censorship board which is directly tied to the prime minister, and which is also able to censor websites without any court order, if they are deemed 'dangerous or harmful' for the culture or 'youth'. the ruling party's own president's office had detected that 6,000 websites or so were censored totally without court order, despite the claims of the censorship board to not have censored anything without a court order.
and then there is the court order invoked censorships or takedowns. these vary 50/50 in between copyright issues and political censorship.
on top of this, there are other kinds of repression of the media even outside internet. recently, almost all of the remaining journalists who oppose the current government were rounded up in a 'terror trial' that's ongoing (and neverending) in the country. it invoked reaction of eu, and u.s. that also hit internet too - a prominent and rather significant opposition media outlet's journalists were broadcasting primarily from their website. they had been rather too effective. and they are now under custody under charges which eu and u.s. (finally) thinks to be rather dubious and unfounded.
so basically - there is huge censorship in turkey. in order to appease eu, the government is trying to make it appear as if there is no censorship and whatever is happening, is happening legitimately and through courts, but somehow, ALL these court issues happen to hit opposing journalists or political opponents. and moreover, they hit when they become rather too vocal too - if you keep your voice down, you are tolerated for some time. if you are talking and people are hearing, suddenly you get taken in for a 'terror investigation'.
such is the state of turkey. it has no place in european union at this state. its really a total facade of a democracy.
the/. you knew 7 year before, had been fledgling in an environment in which there was great freedom, liberty on internet and in i.t..
today is a day when big interests and conglomerates are consolidating all that freedom and liberty on their hands, in their terms, and as they wish it to be - practically, ending it.
and all the concerns and issues of/. and people who are actually wide awake, as compared to your apparent sleep state, are concentrated on these phenomenon.
you have a lot of reading to do, mister. in the duration you were away, there has been a lot you have missed. luckily for you, slashdot has all these prepared, readied and indexed for you.
to it's shareholders. Which is the only metric that matters.
its capitalism. its a bunch of people having NO relevance or affinity to what you are doing, having NO attachment to what you are doing, making money over what you are doing, and demanding you to change how you do things in order to make more money for them. Even if its harmful, self-destructive, or contrary to your ideals or the reality/nature of what you are doing.
Why not cut to the chase and just toll everyone passing any bridge, junction, road crossing, waterway and then divert the loot to the "intellectual property 'rights' holders" ?
ok so i changed the engine. handling remains. only that is going to differentiate a modified car and a sports car ? and, arent there sports cars with a lot of handling characteristics ? doesnt most of the handling come from the gravity of the vehicle, the tires, and gearbox ? what if i modify all of these ?
im not doing anything wrong. i have to open many windows with different apps. and not everyone has to fork out cash to buy multiple monitors. its the job of a window manager to manage windows. not hardware.
Dragging is more stress-inducing to the hand than simply clicking mouse. we do countless minimize-maximize actions over the course of a normal workday.
I cant risk more potential for RSI, just because a few people think that is better to do so.
so then looks make a sports car ? or the engine ? or, tires ? what if i replace the engine, and tires ? in the end, they are a fucking engine, and 4 tires.
i fail to see the 'turd' in that idiom, in the image of hyundai. if, what differentiates a car from 'turd' is differently shaped outer steel chassis, and a bigger volume engine, that would speak about not the qualities of the car, but qualities of the person who held those views.
the 3 year old crysis still forces computers to its limits. it all depends on what you set for resolution, aliasing and various other graphic detail levels. (its even possible to run crysis in dx10 mode in non vista/7 machines with a hack).
those fucking hyundais have a reputation for refusing to break down, requiring minimum maintenance, sniffing out gas, and going on and on for decades.
where i live, even a decade old models of those hyundais still go for prices close to first hand prices in the market. despite we practically have all the car brands that are produced in europe, and some of the ones from usa. (actually some of the european/japanese/korean brands are produced here and exported).
dont look down a hyundai. people here selling a hyundai, only to buy another.

"So what" is the best method. troll expects strong reaction. when people react in that way .... well, try it.
one would say they are already at the inquisition stage ... ah no - that is sony.

it is not an ongoing process. you should use past perfect tense.
what about those who cannot hear, but feel rhythm through vibrations ?
come back when you got yourself a userid.

someone mod this guy up ! i posted in this discussion ! quick !!
and yes, im serious.
i dont want to switch my input device. i have my own habits. i am comfortable with a mouse than a trackball, and i have tried both.
so i should double click instead of single clicking.
Sure people like you could change the way you work, but why make you change the way you work? What benefit do the rest of us get?
precisely.
design should be for enabling users. not enforcing what one things that is 'right'.
