There's a difference between "can take" and "usually takes". I'm willing to bet that the majority of crystal meth users that the HPD feel the need to fire upon don't require more than a single buller to take down (although they may have more than a single bullet fired on them).
Nah. Just route everyone on the ISP through a proxy server (which should be done anyways, squid anyone). Then the content provider charges per click from the proxy server, and the proxy server has logs of who made that click. If a user tries to go around the PS, then the content provider won't recognize the connecting IP and will refuse to send content, or ask for money directly.
There are tons like that. The one I'm thinking of gettig is this one. Audio CD, or file CDs (CDR and CDRW), and a steering wheel remote. For $299. Forgetaboutit. The cheapest one on that page is $199, though it doesn't do CDRW.
The worst profession I've seen this with is chefs. Even head chefs at Denny's get a superiority complex over the customers, who probably know better what they like to eat.
This, I find, is the major problem: people don't *try* reading the code. They just assume it will be too hard to understand and bitch and whine and then reimplement the same things over again because it's not theirs(tm).
I have tried reading thers code, and to me, it looks like code. We all code in the same language here (Java). All code follows the same conventions of instantiating objects and calling methods. If I really wondering about the state of the program, I can put in a println or use a debugger (I find printlns are easier, because they aggregate and I can better compare the state of the program at different times).
It's like merging files in CVS. Wherever there's a conflict, it shows your code and their code right where the conflict is. Just figure out how to merge it. It should be in a language you understand.
Someone said embedding, which is just plainwrong. XHTML allows embedding. But I don't think it allows for pagination (word?). When creating professional documents, targeted for printing, it's important to be able to insert page breaks. For publishing stuff to the web XHTML and CSS are great, but not all word processing.
the library doesn't charge for each book you read there...
But the library has a revenue stream from taxes. Even a bookstore allows you to read portions of a book before you buy it, but in a bookstore a large number of people are paying for this service by buying products. On the web, people aren't paying for anything.
This client doesn't download the keys, it downloads parameters to a block of keys. It then iterates through the keys within that block. The difference is me typing "All the numbers between 1 and 1 trillion" and me typing all the numbers between 1 and 1 trillion.
Battery drain equates to gasoline usage, even when the car is off, since it is gas that charges the battery. Unless you have a hybrid or other non-standard car, where did you think the charge in the battery comes from?
I was thinking more along the lines of "Sun should follow SGI's lead". Why not drop Solaris, have engineers go to town on Linux for Sparc, and sell some support licenses and servers. Isn't that Sun's business model anyways?
It wasn't that it won't fall in. It's that it can't fall in. the 2x2 can't fall into the 2' dm circle. Any rectangle with one side less than 2' can possiblly fall in.
I would say that the users of the systems have an effect on this. I know many non-technical people who aren't good with search engines. The result of being non-technical and not good with a search engine is that they go out and buy software from retailers rather than search for free software, even in cases where there are many versions of similar software available on Windows for free (like the game Majong (sic)).
When there is a large number of non-technical Linux users on the home desktop (and I don't mean large number as in "I know a few non-techies that run linux". I mean dominante desktop market share), then we will see people buying software for linux. This will only happen after people can purchase machines loaded with linux from retail outlets. Even if we make linux installers easy to use, the majority of Windows users don't even install their operating system.
Actually, even the last statement isn't true, as the cover doesn't necessarily have to be the same thikness, so it could be just as cheap to make the square cover. This depends on whether or not manhole covers are so weighty so that they can stand the cars on top of them, or so they are harder for a lay person to pop off. If it's the first, then it probably is the economics of it.
Otherwise, the round cover is arguably more useful because you can open it in any direction (after rotating the pivot point), and it's marginally easier to close (you don't have to get position and rotation correct). But it's probably more of a case of "round hole, round cover" logic that isn't actually a good reason why, just the reason why.

Hint: the HPD are lying. This used to be said about PCP as well. It's just the same old drug propganda on the toxin du jour.

Thanks for the info. The extra $50 does seem worth it.

Sometimes management think that 9 women and an abortion doctor can make a baby in 1 month, but what you really end up with is a bloody mess.

In this case, the radio is much better. The A/C really does consume a lot of gas, but a radio is more like the RC client.

Which part of "Linux for Sparc" needed to be bolded?
That's why God invented consoles
In the long term, do you see Linux on the desktop, and if so when and by what means will it be achieved?
