Trust me...The amount of political tension that is quelled as a result of friendly competition is well worth the cost. It's so sad that last Olympics was so politically charged. China's opening ceremony was a little much though.
I care for these assholes about the same that I care for that dinosaur car industry. Change or die!
The car and the music industry aren't the only ones hurting. Most of us have been impacted in some significant way. A lot of other people are hurting too and it's impossible to know exactly how much the music industry is hurting because of an economic downturn.
Maybe it's time that the music industry got off their collective high horse and learned a thing or two about the economy. The car industry too. If the government bails out the music industry I'll be pissed.
Most people devote a great deal of their time socializing and thus become comfortable socializing. It's part of normal human development. We are social creatures. I tend to think that addiction starts when it causes problems in your life.
The problem is few have studied the long term impact of not learning how to socialize with someone without a LCD screen and a Internet connection. I could potentially see problems arising because not learning how to socialize only makes someone feel even more alienated.
Can you see the potential downward spiral that could apply to this situation that is typically reserved for drug abuse?
All those old computers count as tax breaks if you donate them to a school. Sometimes it's actually works out great financially. I know someone who donated 4 x 72 inch TVs. No one would buy them because they were 720p, but it still counted as a tax break.
They make money off of MySQL selling support and enterprise packages. Can't really do that with a game. GPL

Thanks... I saw that. I don't want to buy it and find out that half the things don't work because canonical is using a different reference design. I appreciate the suggestion though.

Does anyone have any idea what reference platform they are using to develop this and if there is a way for me to obtain it relatively cheaply?
Coaxial cable lines will not radiate that much interference. The powerlines act like giant antennas. It simply won't work. Might as well still be using broadspark signals.
It's better to use the new library. Who know what new features you'll need later. Plus everything you've learned the first time around can be written cleaner and perhaps more modularly the second time around, so substituting pieces of code will be easier.
There are more drivers because embedded hardware needs drivers to run hardware. You need a driver for your i2c bus. You need a driver to control that LCD panel on your linux-based PDA device. It's like comparing apples with oranges. Windows simply hasn't penetrated into the embedded market like Linux has.
I still don't have Linux support for my creative express card sound device and it is supported on windows.
Chip designing these days is like the child game you used to play called connecting the dots.
People use the term SoC(system on chip) to describe them. It's actually quite modular. Basically you can license a arm core or a mips core and put in all your other blocks(PCI, USB, ethernet) all on the same chip, so if Apple were to license the ppc architecture from IBM I'm sure IBM would be happy. I doubt thats what they are doing since the iPhone is based on ARM.
Not a lot of people design processors from scratch anymore.
Unless he designs the processor from scratch he's really not competing. I can't imagine apple doing something that stupid.
That article alludes to his experience with low power. He probably knows a few tricks on how to reduce power load. This is the expertise they are drawing from. He isn't competing with IBM; MIPS, ARM and intel is.
rather than trying to create a server user community of their own by convincing sysadmins
There is no support that I can pay for with Debian. Debian is non-commercial. Canonical will gladly take your money and support you. Sysadmins are great, but they are not developers. If something goes wrong that they can't fix then companies like insurance that they don't have to hire a team of engineers to solve them. Thats usually more expensive.
Even the space shuttle, essentially a flying brick, can land by itself. It's never been tested in the real world because it's tradition to turn it off on final approach. I would assume that pilots and surgeons can find a little bit of common ground. Thats why I like the analogy. Us pilots think we can do better than machines.
Though machines are more precise, we would need someone to blame if something went wrong. How could you tell someone that your son, daughter or husband would of lived if it was a surgeons hands instead of a machine. Airplanes can fly and land more precisely always on autopilot. All the human carrying ones still have pilots behind on-board because we still need someone to blame in case it crashes. We need a soul in control of the machine that has control over our lives. It's just too freaky not to. It may make things more safe, but be careful not to automate too much as computers have never been show to have the decision making skills of people

iPhone apps are not based on java. He'd have to rewrite it.

I don't know much about it but most our trash is carbon. I'd be afraid to live by it for sure.

Do to the /. effect thousands of /.ers started googling flu symptoms causing the predictor to indicate a flu outbreak.
Thousands of hypochondriacs responded by checking themselves into hospitals complaining about flu-like symptoms.
Nanopore...hmmm... Sounds to me thats one step closer to those DNA readers in Gattaca.
Is it legal...dunno. Is it moral or right no.
Can you sue for damages? Yes... get a good lawyer.
