Or did all the Gentoo fanboys migrate to Ubuntu? Like the Millerites became Seventh Day Adventists (well, those who didn't declare the whole thing batshiat crazy and leave after Jesus didnt' show back up in 1844).

Developers Developers Developers Developers Developers!

In the grand scheme of things, I have to wonder if the US government and EU are pretty happy with Sony's decision here. While, yes, they'll be force to spend more money on systems to replicate what they were doing with their PS3 clusters, the PS3 clusters in Iran and North Korea will degrade, too.

general grants of authority given to Virginia universities to craft their own rules.

Which cannot differ from the rules set out by the General Assembly. This is the primary difference between Virginia and many other states (PA, KY, and MA excepted), in that localities, or in this case Commonwealth-owned corporations, have no legal power other that what's granted them by the GA.

It's akin to the USPS giving an okay to interstate shipments of medical marijuana by mail; they can't just arbitrarily do that without Congressional authorization. Hell, they can't even raise postage rates without Congressional approval.

1. Education that Windows users need AV software has been overwhelmingly successful.
2. People are too cheap to go buy a boxed copy, and like in-your-face downloads (many ISPs offer AV, but you have to go hunt for it)
3. Internet Explorer and Windows are still terminally broken out-of-the-box.

Yep. Mod up, please. No dissension among the three judges, meaning probably no en banc review. FCC overstepped its authority. Congress can fix this pretty easily, but I doubt they will. The communications industry has too much influence in the Democratic Party. Look at the DTV delay, which primarily benefited on cellular provider. The cellular companies have big interests here; it's not just cable companies.

1.9L TD is okay with a manual transmission, not so much with an automatic, probably. Since the automakers have deemed that Americans won't buy cars without automatic transmission, and wonderfully socially-conscious insurance companies (hi there, Flo!) are charging more for manual-equipped vehicles, this isn't going to happen.

Furthermore, US safety standards are more stringent than EU ones. It's very difficult to sell a vehicle under around 3200lbs in the US these days -- won't meet crash standards.

Then they'd have needed them there in 1994. Quite a few of the infringement claims stem from NeXTstep.

This isn't about Linux. It's about Google. Google could be using a closed-source kernel, and Apple would still be suing them, with Microsoft quietly cheering.

Cheq my turbo Diesel with nawssss!!!

Verizon. Droid. Sour grapes for Verizon telling them to GTFO when Apple pitched the iPhone to them first.

If Apple succeeds in bloodying HTC's nose, *then* they'll start going after the bigger boys like Google.

That's the point. Get a judgement against HTC, hit Motorola, then Google, using the judgement as leverage.

I also halfway wonder if some of this is at the behest of AT&T.

Maybe Apple should pay Nokia's patent royalties first before they go bullying others?

Is that still in litigation?

Too bad the mobile phone industry is a small one, everyone of the existing players cross-license between each one and ass behaving Apple is in serious trouble if the other companies stop licensing their technology.

This isn't aimed at HTC; it's aimed at Google. Don't kid yourself. To whom, is Google paying license fees?

I actually misread the headline as "PC-DOS," which would, sorta be from Microsoft.....maybe IBM was returning to the numbered releases. :-)

WTKR had it last night at 11, but were kinda sketchy on details. Big emphasis on NO CITIZEN OR EMPLOYEE DATA WAS AFFECTED.

I live in Norfolk; let's just say that the best and brightest aren't working in IT for local governments. Defense companies pay a lot better.

When I worked for another local city, they were still running an ancient 16-bit version of Netware (would have been like 2002).
