Given that a 2x4 doesn't mesure 2 inches by 4 inches, and hasn't in 50+ years, and that 2x4s are availble as such in metric Canada anyway... wait, what was the question?

What an incredible amount of effort you choose to hide behind 4 letters.
For some reason even the largest amount of violence is less likely to cause controversy than a sex scene.
The reason is that depictions of violence are protected speech in the USA and depictions of sex aren't. If not, they would censor the violence just as thoroughly.
As long as alt-spacebar-n continues to work, I'm OK with this.
If a reboot or a re-imaging fixes the problem, that's the right solution.
The thing is it probably doesn't fix the problem. It might fix the symptom, but the problem will reoccur.
Especially if you buy a support contract, where the vendor will send someone competent out for the couple of time a year where something goes seriously wrong.
That sounds like an argument FOR using Linux.
It doesn't actually work that way. The stock market is a means of seperating foolish stock account managers from their clients' money. The account managers get their cut of every transaction, weither it earns money or not.
At several hundreds of dollars, those phones are more expensive then many desktop computers. At they are slower and have a worse screen and keyboard.
Of course, one could pay for it by installments, AKA the 5 year contract. But taking 5 years to pay for something that will be obsolete in a year is sub-optimal.
If Ubuntu disappeared tomorrow would the Debian team notice?
Yes.

Yes.
Without DRM the games are that much more suspetible to being controled by a script. In online play, this would give an advantage to the better coders (or script kiddies).
Yes everyone could be using the cheat-scripts, but that would spoil the fun. This is a repeat of the steroids (sorry, Performance Enhancing Drugs) debate.
Could this post be translated into English understandable by people over 40?
I can't believe I just asked that! But I don't know how to congugate "to retweet" nor how to parse "X followers tweet read."
I think he extrapolated from the North American market; from what I can see 90% of people in the USA in Canada use at least some pirated software.
I can't believe anyone really went far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like!
Everybody inteligent already knows that PHP bites. That doesn't prevent it from being widely used.
Most of what you said could be applied to Perl and CPAN as well. Monkey Patching? Isn't that the heart of Moose? Duck typing? That's basically all of Perl OO. I have no opinion of ActiveRecord, but I'm sure there are sucktastic ORMs on the CPAN. I also no the vast majority of the CPAN are not close to "high quality" let alone "extremely".
And I say the above as someone who uses Perl professionaly since 1995. So you could say I have a pretty large pro-Perl bias.
What would be more interesting is stats on what kinds of modules the CPAN has vs RubyGems. 1500 variations on text templating? 10 competing HTTP servers? 10 different event loops?
