Submitted by ubrgeek

documentary 'A visage découvert : Nicolas Sarkozy' ... It is even more appalling that we are dealing with repeat offenders : last spring, while the Hadopi law was discussed, U.S. music duo MGMT received â30,000 as a settlement for a copyright infringement by French President Nicolas Sarkozy's party who used one of its songs at a political rally without permission.

Submission + - OS wars in Sci-Fi

Submitted by ubrgeek
ubrgeek writes: How does any OS "battle" like *nix vs. OS X vs. MS play out in an environment like Star Trek where there is obviously one OS ("Computer"). Will there still be alternative OS's? Will they be allowed in an environment like a Starship? Will Vulcan geeks hack the Tricorder to run an alternate OS X?
