Before or after he found him?
A sane person would of given the cops the information and let this be a legal issue. I would of done the same. Basically this kid crossed the line from harmless internet troll, to potential killer when he moved the trolling to the real world. that has consequences and it they ruin his life well it's his fault.

Which will work for all about a few weeks to months. Till it bitches at you to reconnect.
For updates of course, not because they may think your pirating stuff. Or at least that's what they state..

Oddly i am reminded of an anime called s-cry-ed. Straight cooger, a character based on speed, commented to another one. That anyone given enough time can write novel's. The ones that can do it well are the ones who do it better and faster than the others.

With enough time anyone can learn to code just about anything. it's the people who can do it well and in a small amount of time(say months instead of years for a large project) that are the people with the innate ability for it.

arm does not make their own chips. They design the instruction sets and the silicon photo masks(look up how chips are made) but other companies make the actuall physical silicon product. Those companies can pick and choose what parts of the cpu they want to use and what instruction sets they want in it.

to use food as a analogy, Intel is every store or restaurant that you can buy food pre made and ready to eat. arm would be like someone selling a recipe to you. it's up to you to make it, and what you put into it.

So it's not arm's fault for not supporting linux on the nokia and apple variants of the arm v7 instruction set. It's those respective companies. So if you had enough money and access to either rent or own a cpu fab plant, you too could make your own version of a arm chip and make it only be support on haiku os for example.

Seems you have not actually been keeping up with the arm architecture. They have had out-of-order-execution since the debut of the cortex a9.

Oil of the same grade, is more or less fungible.
We may not get our supplies from that area as much as is in the popular media. BUT, due to it being fungible it will still affect us because those places we do get our supply will have to take up the slack of those who have 'lost' their imports from there. Which means prices will skyrocket to the point that it might as well of cut us off physically. The price of gas 'after' a strike will make the price now look like the 20 cents or so a gallon decades ago.

They stated this is a windows 8 only chip. So they won't release specs for other operating systems to use this. Also since windows 8 'require's' the uefi secure boot option, how much do you want to bet intel made Clover trail boards 'won't' support either disabling it nor adding your own keys?

This won't stop linux dev's. Saying something can't work is a challenge to some of them. it's just intel won't provide patches for the in kernal systems to get it running, they might even go as far as to stop such patches being added if they actually 'did' make an agreement with microsoft to make this a 'windows 8 only' chip.

Who defines what is malware if this happens.
I have no doubt that if the isp in question is also a media company, programs that access the internet and are of their competitor's 'might' occasionally be flagged as malware.
I can also see that alternative o.s.'s could theoretically be flagged as such.

But above 'all' how could they determine if malware is installed simply from the isp side and without requiring special programs on their customer's pc's to access their services.

swarm the embassy with identical diplomatic cars. have all the male employee's dress the same and put on shaded biker's helmets. adjust their height with shoes or other means. each one will get into a different car and head to the airport or other means to leave the country to get to Ecuador. one of them will have assange, but no one but assange and the embassy driver would know which one is real until it's too late to cause a major black eye by shooting down the plane or forcing it down.

windows defender is 'part' of windows 8 so it's still correct to say windows 8 does this.

nah, that's when they finally get the list of supported hardware to the point linux is now. sometime in the 2050's at this rate.

to be honest your deluding yourself if you think react-os is anything other then a hobyist os meant to live in vm's and not raw hardware.

mp3: cowon beats them hands down in battery life and features.

as for the rest, it's spoken like someone who has no clue how long and hard it is to clean room reverse engineer hardware so you 1. don't get dragged into court for breaking laws. 2. can legally distribute the code to anyone.

even when you have the documentation as in the case of ati giving it to the foss world. it takes a long time to build the code base. compare that to the window's driver which is probably choked with legacy code from people who don't even work at $graphics company any more.

as for distro's working together, while you may not see it(go see a eye doctor). it is the same thing as asking 'why can nations get their shit together and tackle X problem?'
it's because each camp has their own philosophic ideals on how things should be and should be run, they view the other's as wrong and they refuse to change.

what it means for the fsf and the somewhat wacky ideas of Richard stalman.
But i do know that for steam to work on linux without the use of wine and it's window's api emulations Kernel modules will be required to allow the input and graphics snooping that it's anti-cheat system uses.
It might also need a kernel module to have it's own monitored network interface for the same reason.

unless they want to make a desura clone.

there is a difference between a sociopathic murder, and just a plain sociopath.
the latter is just someone who lacks the ability to empathize with other humans.
