What is "to a lesser extent" about a closed source OS with 92% market share?

That's utterly and completely false. Germany gets less incident solar energy and they would only have to cover 10% of the roofs of houses/buildings alone to generate as much as they consume. Not that solar is some sort of total energy solution but it's certainly great for addressing peak load issues.

I've spent most of my life reading patents for money. No one, at any company, gives a crap about right and wrong. If it's a novel idea and you think there's some chance of making money on it, you patent it. I'd be reviewing applications for Zyklon B if there was a way to monetize murder.

A 1000Won note is about equivalent to $1. Then you have 500Won coins and 100Won coins as your main coins in practice, rarely you will buy something that is rounded to the nearest 50Won. The only time you get 10Won coins (pennies) is when dealing with the bank or the government. The really old people will remember even smaller denominations than pennies. They used to have 1Won coins, and before WWII 1/2Chon was the smallest coin, with 100Chon = 1Won.

The Dell 3007WFP still doesn't have LED backlighting and runs $1600. LED backlighting makes a huge difference when you are watching video with darkly-lit scenes. The ability to dim specific regions of the backlight means you don't end up with those washed-out greyish looking blacks that you get on CCFL backlit LCDs.

The title stipulates "cruise missile," while the V2 was a ballistic missile.

I have a 2.2ghz Core2Duo MBP from Early '08 with 4GB of RAM that is incapable of playing back 1080p x264 without stuttering. I've tried everything - MPlayer, VLC, numerous Boxee release. I can get close to normal playback if there are absolutely no other applications running, but the CPU still maxes out and stutters during rapid-motion scenes. It seems there is absolutely no hardware acceleration available for the mac, unless you have a new MBP with a 9400m and are playing back in Quicktime. Even more frustrating, if I boot into Windows with BootCamp I can play back 1080p video flawlessly with no stuttering as the Windows side supports GPU acceleration. So much for the wonders of OpenCL in Snow Leopard.

Depraved videos of people being brutally murdered, see "3guys1hammer" for example, are not illegal and they depict the most heinous of acts. I am sure a depraved sociopath or two has masturbated to such videos before as well. Yet, while these videos are legal and a certain segment of the population with extremely violent tendencies may experience sexual pleasure from them, having them legal has not increased the incidence of people making murder/rape videos on a for profit basis. The whole thing has devolved into pure insanity. People being thrown in jail for pictures of the Simpsons having sex, people being framed, the FBI posting links on sites purporting to be child porn, then storing the IP of anyone who visits that URL without verifying in any way that they were in fact referred from the site where the link was posted. So long as the underlying act is kept illegal, legalizing possession of data depicting such acts does nothing to boost crime rates. I would also imagine it would be even easier to locate and prosecute actual pedophiles if such images were legal.

All comments from before 1999/01/01 have been deleted. The first post on 1999/01/01, still in the archive is; Anonymous Coward on Friday January 01 1999, @05:15PM (#2049871) I agree, that really boiled my blood. I saw the new layout this morning, I thought it was pretty damn cool looking.

Tell me about it. I destroy a few hundred million lives every time I watch porn.

Neum/nim is just a respectful ending, like "Mr." kind of.

No UTF on /.? WTF?

His name in Korean is ë¥ì±ífoe. As mentioned in this article - http://blog.naver.com/PostView.nhn?blogId=ourbelief&logNo=130043884744 That would transliterate as Ryu-Seong-Tae, depending on the transliteration method you use. He may just have decided to transliterate it in his own way, as no one is likely to pronounce it properly anyway unless they can read Korean!
