You just don't realize how much you are asking. Perfect collision detection in 3D is extremely difficult. Now that's not to say it can't be improved, but perfection is rather far away.
Couple that with these nanometer-scale silicon lasers (made with standard chip fabrication), and Moore's law will definitely survive. Our current tech will look like molasses when these are coupled.
Imagine fiber optic motherboard traces with chips made out of graphene. It might to move us to counting in terehertz.
Don't use that method; just goto/etc/default/linux-restricted-modules right click it, and select "Edit as Root". You should see something like this somewhere:
DISABLED_MODULES="" change it to
DISABLED_MODULES="nv" .
Actually, Kubuntu (Ubuntu with KDE) is even better for a Windows native. I just started dual-booting it on a second spare HD, and am very pleased.
Tips: a package isn't a file to download, it's something you install with the Adept Package Manager. If something in command-line wants root privileges, type sudo in front of the command.
If the bill didn't pass the senate 99-0 and pass the house by a voice vote (most likely near-unanimous)... then you might have a point. It takes a 3/2 vote from both houses to override a presidential veto, not 99-0. Please try to confine yourself to subjects you are knowledgeable on.
And will these weapons of mass destruction actually be found this time ? Or is this just another lie to justify starting a war ? You know, the kind US used to justify attacking Iraq ? Maybe I'm too cynical, but I really don't think that US's claims about a country US has declared to be in the "Axis of Evil" are worth the paper they are written on.
While President Bush hasn't always made the best decisions, I am pretty confident US military intelligence is correct on this. Nobody who is closely following current military events would take you seriously if you said Iran wasn't making nukes.
The WMD were not found last time because the UN, not the US, conducted the searches, and the inspectors could be delayed whenever Saddam wanted to. All the UN does it stall the US long enough for the culprits to get away, tries to manages America's internal affairs, lets in foreign spies, and leaches vast amounts of money from our taxpayers.
or are they going to have no choice but to steal it? You forgot to include the RIGHT choice: don't steal it. Instant gratification isn't vital to your existence, although that's what we are teaching our kids by buying them everything as soon as it "comes out". It used to be that kids saved their money to buy something, and in the process learned to WAIT.
I would, because you agreed not to let that happen in your EULA, and the engineers who spent years designing it wouldn't get their earned pay.
In regards to the article: Shocking! People want something they can't get, so they bootleg it!?! How surprising! Come on, this is obvious. But it is still wrong.
They already HAVE attacked Israel (think gov-funded Hezbollah rockets). Your ignorance is precisely what makes such a mess of the issue.
Iran is very, very close to "the bomb", or may already have it. US military intelligence has the exact locations of numerous nuclear facilities, which is why the Stennis aircraft carrier group was just moved withing striking distance.

One reason that Microsoft doesn't start suing Linux vendors and users is that there are so many trivial software patents around owned by numerous other industry players that they might very well launch a devastating attack on Microsoft. I'm sure that if IBM put effort into it, it could find that Microsoft is violating 1,000 of its patents. And Microsoft would find that IBM is violating 300 of its patents. And the other players launch off their missiles. Industry-wide disaster ensues.
Which is how the patent system is supposed to work. Companies have mutually assured destruction, so they stay in their seats. But the lone inventor doesn't have mutually assured destruction, so they are protected.
It all works out, until you have a patent troll company who isn't inventing anything and doesn't have mutually assured destruction, just lawyers.
An now, after being announced on Slashdot, the backdoor support form will be clogged too. (I prefer Bluehost, which manages it's own hosting servers and nameservers on-site.)
I started tinkering with Windows 95 at ~8 years of age, and have been a computer junky ever since. About a month ago I installed Kubuntu on a blank machine while I waited for parts, and loved it.
But I almost gave up when I was trying to install nForce drivers, and it kept failing after I restarted. After hours of trying and Googling for information, I finally found a list of required "packages". I thought, "Aha! This must be the problem!"
So I diligently searched the internet for these "packages". Many hours later, I was on the verge of giving up, when I noticed a "Package Manager" utility. Shazam! It all worked.
Just think how much time I could have saved if every website I found had not assumed I knew what a package was! Another assumption was that I knew how to use makefile and install. People who write Linux software manuals shouldn't assume the user knows what terms mean! (Esp. since many of them are very similar to Windows terms, and people just assume they are the same thing.) Basically, all the instructions for the free distros assume you know the jargon. Fix that, and Linux will suddenly be more much more "user-friendly".
The financial damage was too insignificant? That's a rather strange reason to dismiss a case, as it violates the letter of the law. It's not a bad idea, except that is has a massive potential for abuse.
It's just sad that court costs are so high, and you can't sue for anywhere close to the actual damage.
Be realistic; the NSA/military people aren't idiots. If they have enough tech savvy to set up a massive internet spying program, yet can bet they can figure out where an attack is really coming from. (Maybe their spy program would help them find out....hmm, sounds like what it was made for!)
And it is trivial for them to get some intelligence of their target before bombing. While I don't support many of the NSA's actions, you people give them way too little credit.

The only big issue for me (I use Ethernet, not Wi-Fi) was installing NVIDIA drivers. You need to download the binary blob from the main site (easy), then go to http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=

This does indeed have enormous potential. But - how many million does it cost?
Er, that was a typo. It was supposed to be 2/3.
According to the Federal Government, you are not required to give your SSN to anyone but the Federal Government (think IRS) and your employer.

Clinton was the one who wouldn't take Osama when he was offered. While Bush could've done better, Clinton made the really bad choices.

Right on! Personal accountability is key.
Mod parent up!
Why could Apple just buy the trademark? Is Cisco charging too much, since they know they have Apple over a barrel? Here's how I see it:
1. Cisco got the trademark, legal and straight.
2. Apple wanted it.
3. Cisco wouldn't give it up.
4. Apple used it anyway.
5. Cisco sues.
Why can't Cisco just sell it? Is it just a case of general greed?
How did that get modded insightful? When there is more demand the price goes down, not up!
Absolutely the best comment on this story!
