This is 100% incorrect.

He cannot be guilty under any circumstances, until tried by the laws at hand.

You are just as bad as Kerry and just as unconstitutional in your argument.

Considering that XP is pirated in China to a significant percentage less than 99%, you're missing that if everybody is using Linux nobody is going to be buying MS anything at all. Effectively total market lockout. Which can affect the NSA as well.

Truthfully, this probably won't affect anything.

Please stop begging the question. We have no way to ever quantify that, and it simply doesn't matter.

The information is out there, and all we can do is hopefully move forward as a society as a result.

Every display is retinal, because it uses your retinas.

Your post is bullshit, whether you're implying apple (as the poster below) implied or not.

When displays aren't retinal, that might actually be the key to success.

You are correct that it's both the ISP's and the governments.

It's all anecdotes, and anyone who believes personal anecdotes is a fool and deserves to lose their money to a corporation on their foolish decisions. Which is how our economy operates, anyway.

This is correct. We had more competition in terms of choosing graphics cards in the past, it didn't mean they were actually competitors or even tried to not do a completely shit job that didnt' help anyone in the long term.

Intel doesn't give a shit even today as far as graphics - good luck getting any launch game to run on any integrated graphics platform on a screen above 1024x768, where even a $50 card from literally anyone else will do better than the extra $50 intel is charging people to have an IGP. Hell, even AMD's hybrid solutions do better for gaming by an order of magnitude. What intel is open sourcing is not a solid 3d background, but a pile of unused 2d renders and basically nothing. It would not be unlike taking mono on linux and saying that Microsoft "gave up the crown jewels for linux" when it's explicitly untrue.

Meanwhile, AMD is budget constrained and not the best, Nvidia is proprietary as fuck (and tries to encourage everyone else to be, look at PhysX's bullshit proprietary nature), and Intel is shit. People don't build gaming rigs with an intel IGP in mind. Our options are just as relatively poor as they were back in the day, just newer hardware/better software.

Most likely killed a bunch of people by affecting fucking 911 calls.

Let's not focus on the pedantry of acting like the jamming was ever acceptable at any point and debating the result, because the jamming wasn't even legal in the first place.

Or just listen to music and only check your phone at red lights. It's not that hard, at least to me?

Then again self driving cars may fix this some day.

100% wrong. Read what this man did and then ask yourself how we've set up a society that let him get to that point, and we're not just talking about guns.

We're talking about the behaviors that enabled things to get to this point. Why have we created a society where we have such corruption that people are choosing to resort to robbery, for example?

Not true.

GPL doesn't restrict people from using the software any way they want. It restricts them from preventing anyone else from using the software any way they want.

Which matters - let me know how trying to run Apple on non-apple hardware without paying for a license goes, in comparison to a GPL'd OS.

Resignation is a resignation. There isn't a discussion over how forced it was/wasn't, if it's a resignation.

No, it's not hard to know.

It's a literal "Fuck you", just without using words.

You have the right idea, but your injury costs, deaths, and sensor costs are both wrong and based on the summary. If you RTFA it's 200+ deaths a year and 15 thousand injuries (not 1100), so we're talking almost $550M right there based on your back of a napkin numbers.

Even the government may be stereotyped as stupid but they are surely able to do this kind of cost/benefit analysis better than a random anon post.
