The main point of the article is that the renewables are lowering the rentability of the baseload generator because they lower the marginal price to zero when the conditions are good.
This does not means that we don't need the gas/nuclear/coal ones at night when the wind does not blow.
Who will pay for them ?

I have an oldish core2 duo macbook pro on which mac os x became more and more of a pain to run. Ubuntu works like a charm on it.
An article about mechanical with no mention of Unicomp ?? This is a bit like one about wines of the world where Italy and France would be absent...
Actually, I think that the Christian rules are even a bit stronger, and I'd correct your phrase as follows:
- So a Christian fanatic, who wishes to live by the word of his god is not compelled to convert or kill anyone
+ So a Christian fanatic, who wishes to live by the word of his god is compelled not to kill anyone
Don't plug the ethernet, disable WIFI, use a small computer to drive the display (XBMC on rpi does this well). Problem solved.
This is not at all about the French/US competition, the big French sites like fnac.com are subjected to the same rules of course.
You can think one thing or another about the rules, but they are about the big sites killing off the small local shops.
Are you sure that your situation is due to private sector competition rather than the happy effects of Europe structural funds?
I knew about the X11 subsystem, but always found it inconvenient to use. I did not even know that it had been forked off by Apple, thanks for the pointers.
This is a sincere question: can I display a single remote app (either running on Linux or another Mac OS X) on a Mac OS X desktop, among other, local, windows ? Cause I do this permanently with X11, and this is really the main reason why I would not even consider switching to OS X.

Regular checkups can detect disease before it becomes serious. The health AND economic benefits are very high and you don't want people to hesitate, which is why you cover the costs. Saves money and suffering.
I only watched the beginning at this point, but the presenter says something that does not bode too well for the rest. Speaking about how it was bad that the client side parser was insecure, especially for setuid clients:
This code was written in the eighties with the assumption that the server is trusted so there is little validation on the client side.
Well, of course the server is trusted. This is the code which runs on your local workstation. If your input terminal is compromised, you're so hosed anyway that it's not really worth considering exactly what hole they will be using !
