Care to show proof of this, or is it just a lot of hot air?
I couldn't find anything like that in my searching.

I don't get it.

Netflix has aged content, at least in my country it was 2-3 seasons behind, no one will rip that.

Pirates don't rip streaming media but Blurry discs or something of higher quality.
Regular users download their stuff if not using a service like this.

You lock out a lot of users/platforms denting bottom line.

They might be worried that people will "copy" the stuff when viewing for later viewing without subscription?
Again, you have much better/higher quality sources for this type of behavior

Grrr...

Google shut down USENET? :)

Or do you mean their interface to it?
I can still read my groups in gnus..

Whale is quite common here in Norway still
It's also tasty.

Just marinade it in beer for a day or so and toss it on the bbq :)

You can also make "Keiko" burgers as we now call them after a member of the costal party served them during an election.

When I was two years old in 1982, my father purchaced the spectrum as he figured that computers would be important in the future.
He even soldered on a proper keyboard instead of the crappy rubber keys that came with it.

I started programming on this by typing in the symbols from a computer magazine that listed the basic code when I was around 4-5. Since all basic syntax had it's own key it was not too hard. The reward was a game that sometimes worked and sometimes was a bust.

I later learned real programming with the C64 and later on Pascal, assembly and C on DOS.

Works fine here.
I have zfs root + refind on my laptop and grub2 + zfs root on my desktop with ssd cache drives. Works like a charm. It eats a bit of ram though :)

Just added a couple repositories to arch and build a new usb stick with zfs included.
Instructions here:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installing_Arch_Linux_on_ZFS

The only backdraw is that I have to wait for the zfs repository to update whenever arch releases a new kernel. Usually it takes 1-2 days so it's not too bad.
Also, keep in mind that you can not offload the ZIL to another (ssd) drive for the root zpool so make sure you make a separate pool for the root and one with all the rest /usr, /home, /var etc.
You can add cache ssd drives to the root pool though.
Offloading ZIL (log) speeds up the writes and cache drives speeds up the reads.

Once you go zfs you don't go back as the possibilities are endless ;)

Blink is based on webkit which itself is based on KHTML which is as you might know is fully open source (GPL).
They can't really change that license :)

Maybe it's just me (and I know it supports the old wii-motes), but I think the big controller is too weird and too big.
I'm looking forward to ouya console or the steam console.

Correct.
In Norway the socialists are the conservative ones, while the right parties (although still far left of democrats in the us) are the liberals.

Easy.
Just require a doctor notice for paid sick leave. If you don't have that, deduct the salary.

Ugh, this really sounds like the way SAS responds when you try to access a field that doesn't exist. It will just create it and initialize it to missing value.

I'm sure the objc solution is creating a _lot_ more bugs than it "fixes".

Only one provider must suck big time. But you would think that there would be room for at least two competing against each other.
Unless they cooperate on price :)

If you can prove that you have used substantially less than they claim and cut you off.
As a side note: why the hell would anyone go with a plan with data caps?
A 100 mbit fiber connection with no caps at all is around $100 a month here, if i drop to 60 mbit it costs $50. I think there are about 10 providers in this area competing with DSL, cable and fiber.

Maybe the answer is 42 :)
BUT.
42 light years at 10% of the speed of light (which is within the possibilities) and it would only take about 10 generations to reach this place.
It could actually be a place suitable for evacuation!

The problem is that you then have to write content of high enough quality to be able to charge a premium and not just copy/paste from other news agencies.

So the low quality web that is driven for profit using adds and minimal original content might go away.
How sad!
