Can you upgrade to the next version of the OS remotely? Not saying that it's not getting better but it still has a ways to go. On most UNIX systems I can partition, format and copy an OS from a running system to a new system. Please provide how with windows and CLI/Powershell. Yes I know I can buy some software.....

I don't like giving my email to random sites so since the servey was forwarded toa third party I skipped it. I guess forget the alpha for me.

I feel we are back in 1995 and need IE 3 or some such thing.

Could we just create standard code please. Forget mobile it's not ready for the web yet. I have no issues when I tell sites to send me the desktop version. Why do I have issues with mobile?

Left? Never left, just added on.... Servers FreeBSD, OpenBSD used to install from one floppy with FTP/DSL. Desktop is mostly OS X but I also have Ubuntu (drag and drop straight from the file manager onto a server halfway around the world with ssh/sftp. The cloud made easy.) Legacy equipment support amazing 12year old scanner runs as new.

No need to leave. The freedom cannot be matched.

Learning order that I would recommend Linux > Windows > OS X > FreeBSD one after the other and keep them ALL.

Linux before windows because some thing windows does it seems like magic to a new user due to the fact that it is hidden deep under many layers once you understand these basics they are the same on all platforms. OS X when used with standards is amazing. When you lock your stuff up in a garden I feel it's hard to move you off. Get rid of iTunes, iCloud, iPhoto or any iXXXX it's a selfish way to enjoy your files and it limits how you share your stuff. It gets in the way.

I Love computers, just saying...

For some of us who have older S's (1.5 years) Samsung needs to support their phones like Apple does. Get us the updates.

If you need to look at how well Samsung can fail in their own software look at Kies. Poor platform support apart from Windows. Poor older phone support. Come on Samusung get with the big boys. Not everyone can upgrade every year. remind us why we should be loyal.

Is it me or does it seem than Apple is upgrading their hardware every 2 years? No mini, iMac or MacBook improvements. It seams this year they upgraded the models which they skipped last year.

There was no argument because if you wish to find child pron you can on Google. Emanual pulled this out of his ass because nobody will admit that they searched for child porn... As to filtering content the answer is simple for Emanual, all he has to do ask Google not to index his material. Google will gladly remove any reference to his content. Google is not privy to all the licensing deals that Emanual may or may not have made nor is Google profiting from Emanual's work therefore it is not Google's job to filter Emanual content legal or otherwise unless Emanual asks and provides Google with the valid licenses holders.

As a final note Google does provide copyright holders the tools to advise it of what content is not licensed and I believe that Google does remove the links. Yet this last statement is based on news I read on /. and other news sources.

Yes! Yes! Yes! because it will continue to work when the DVD/Bluray stops playing . I have a perfectly good DVD player which no longer plays new DVD's All the old DVDs still play most new ones too but some of them are so error prone (DRM) that they do NOT play. They are not scratched they are new out of the box. So at the time the answer was to walk over to the computer and rip them. Now the question is why even bother with the DVD? If you no longer bother with a DVD then you don't need a $500 ~ $1500 computer you can play them of a media player straight from your USB.

So for your answer it is YES a $50 media player and a $5 USB dongle is cheaper than a $50 player with $20 DVD/Bluray that may or may not play.

There is more to a democracy than the right to vote, such as the right to understand what we are voting for. We are not allowed to see or discuss most aspects of our government (ACTA). Most contracts are awarded behind closed doors. Politicians can say whatever they please and are not bound by their words. Laws are hidden with in ambiguous statements which curtail the freedom of expression such as "think of the children". Every year we move further away from the definition of democracy and I strongly believe that we no longer live in a democracy, if we ever had.

Her words remind me of the saying "Do as I say not as I do."

Your key is compromised. So your question is how do you revoke it????

Maybe you issue a new one????

Just saying that's all......

It's getting to the point that you can never be sure whether a copy is legal or not. If you haven't read the original contract between the author and the publisher and the distributor you cannot be sure if you are acquiring a legal copy. Reading the copyright page in a book does not always state whether it is legal to distribute in such and such a country.

Now if he had pirated the book, since he was a student of few means, he would not be in this situation where he would have the need to sell the book.

If you cannot resell a legally purchased copy then it's best you pirate and be done with it. I don't subscribe to the idea that there is a grey market.

I buy and play games because they are fun! What is killing the $60 games it's that they are not worth $60. They are the same game as the last one with better graphics more DRM and the same glitches. When you are playing a multiplayer game and can't kill your opponent when you sneak up behind them and empty all your rounds into their backs. They turn around and with one bullet you are dead. It's not a cheat it's a poor engine design because I've been at both ends of the experience.

And for the love of god I know it's EA DICE FROSTBITE or whatever company designed the game. Stop wasting my time with endless start up ads then proceed to load the game while I'm looking a a screen which is flashing LOADING..... I only have about one hour at a time to play. I have to earn a living in order to pay the $60 or more for the game so I don't have much time.

Get rid of DRM.

I bought a 300Gig HD because it made sense to load the games so I wouldn't have to wait for the slow DVD/BR.

I need to be able to sell the game since I can't return it if I don't like it or wish to purchase a new one.

I don't need any additional warning messages. They are already in the booklet that came with the game.

So basically the solution is: Fix the bugs. Don't waste my time. Let me play by getting out of my way. Get rid of DRM. I will gladly pay $60.

On a Mac and a typical UNIX system the apps are run in a sandbox with limited permissions keeping them tied to the user. If the user gets compromised the system is not affected. On Windows there is a user called System and most programs need to be installed/run as the system user which gives a virus Trojan unlimited access to the full system.

Macs can get viruses but they will be limited to the user. If you have a knowledgeable user on a Mac he can run the system securely with out a need for a virus scanner. Unfortunately on Windows you do not have this option. Yes Windows has improved considerably but most applications will not install unless Administrator installs them and they then can be run as system. This is only one simple example of how the two systems are different but it makes a big difference. There are many others.

You can have stupid users on Mac who install everything from everywhere and run their system as root or the main user but once burnt they learn and have a means to protect themselves. Now I've never ran an anti-virus on an UNIX system I own, including my Macs, but I would never run a Windows system without it. The stupid users may grow but the knowledgeable users will not be affected.

You can also have an expensive product made with cheap parts but with an expensive logo attached. The price of something does not mean that it was well built.

Unless someone forwarded that address to someone in the hose of commons with a message such as watch this.

Or maybe not...
