The country you are referring to is called "United States of America".
It is written like that in the Declaration of Independence and in the Articles of Confederation, and its known like that by everybody in the world.
Some people say "America" colloquially to refer to the USA, but it is simply wrong.
That's an interesting point. Many of the blond hair, blue eyed Israeli citizens hail from Germany, Poland, Russia, the U.S. Because they are currently Jewish, they have rights.
But those brown people, the Christians and Muslims, could they not have also been Jews too once? Jews that later converted to Christianity and Islam. The original people that lived in the land called Israel, 2000+ years ago.
Look around the neighborhood (Leb, Egypt,, Syria, etc.), they're all pretty brown too.
Just thinking...
Not all jews are white, there are black jews too and they are treated the same way with the same rights.
In 1991 there was a military operation in which 34 israeli airplanes were sent to rescue the Ethiopian jews from Eritrean and Tigrean rebels, they transported more than 14,000 black jews to Israel, in my opinion that is quite impressive. I know if I was in a similar situation my own country wouldn't move a finger for me.
But then you find out that they're displacing the people living in those areas and then just gifting that land to Israeli settlers and you're like "WTF?!?! How are they ever going to undo that? You can't just go to the settlers and say 'Okay. Time to come back home, we are giving that land back to the Palestinians...'".
You could also flip the question around and ask what Linux stuff is keeping you from using Windows?
The freedom of having access to the source code of not only the kernel but pretty much everything.
The problem is not the software error, its the malicious intention of the developer by coding an app to humiliate the user behind his back with his friends whenever it thinks it was pirated.
Even if the piracy detection works, the intention is still there.
What's next? posting your private pictures to facebook? Sending your passwords to the developers?
Yes, its from Pheonix, just found it and will give it a try, thanks for the tip!
As a happy owner of a Sharp Aquos TV, I really hope Sharp can survive.
In Japan, Sharp is the only brand of TVs with both Japanese and English menu settings.
My 3 year old Sharp TV even has an RS-232 port that I have connected to my HTPC and I use it to control most things from it: power on/off, change input, volume, etc. The TV even came with a manual describing the protocol, what else could I ask for?
I have checked their newer models and unfortunately they have removed this feature. I am hoping to find some similar control capability via the network port, with an open protocol, but haven't found anything yet (I welcome any hints!).
The only thing my Sharp TV doesn't do well is displaying the image properly when using nouveau, but since it works well when using the nvidia driver I'm not sure if its a buggy EDID implementation from Sharp or nouveau.
I have a Nokia N95, N900, and N9 and feel the same way about these fine devices of mine, (and use each every day around the house for SIP calls, sync'd emails, calendars, alarms, BASH scripts over SSH, and RSS).
I hope you are not using that n900 for sip calls, cause its voip stack is full of unresolved bugs.
Nokia always had an almost good voip implementation, always with some minor annoying bugs, but the n900 takes the prize.
I second that, after being an AVG user for a long time, I made the big mistake of trying Avira.
I think the nagging is much worse than the viruses.
If you look hard enough, you will find that marriage was in fact frequent between very young girls and men. Even among Christians and Jews. Not sure about 9-10 years old but then again who can really accurately tell us the age of those girls?
Not only that, but I have strong reasons to believe that Moses was a picker.
Google might not make the right decisions sometimes, but it is nowhere close to the evil empire that Microsoft is.
See this for a good example of what I'm talking about:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AARD_code
"What the [user] is supposed to do is feel uncomfortable, and when he has bugs, suspect that the problem is DR-DOS and then go out to buy MS-DOS."
It's a shame that PC games don't allow the user to control everything with a gamepad. I'm talking about starting the game, configuring settings, etc, just like in consoles. Not even in opensource games, I never see this.
That makes them impossible or inconvenient to play from a HTPC.
So where is the URL to download the CSV automatically on a weekly basis and import it into my proxy?
"Windows is slowly losing relevance" - by peppepz (1311345) on Wednesday August 08, @02:22AM (#40915185)
#1 Most Used/Biggest Marketshare on PC Desktops + Servers combined, & it's "losing relevance"? Then MacOS X + Linux never had it @ all, just based on the numbers, & don't argue with me - as the saying goes, "argue with the numbers": See here, "Read 'em & weep" -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_operating_systems

Parent said "Windows is slowly losing relevance", the article you refer to shows current market share of operating systems, not change in time, so here are some relevant numbers you can argue with.
From September 2008 to April 2012:
Windows: 90.87% -> 84.13%
Mac: 8.69% -> 14.80%
Linux: 0.41% -> 0.86%
So it seems it is true that Windows is slowly losing relevance. In the same period of time Linux doubled its usage. And I suspect they are not taking into account mobile devices such as cellphones and tablets.
I've used AND created OpenGL screensavers for Windows since Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003 - based on the OpenGL 2.1 standard
If your screensavers look anything like your posts, I'm not interested.
The challenge is finding someone who is an exact match and have the genetics that is resistant to HIV. It might work for those lucky few, but people already have challenges finding a match without the HIV criteria.
FTFA: "The findings may not apply to all patients. Both men were a little unusual in that they had a genetic mutation that can make immune cells resistant to infection by HIV. Their new immune cells, however, which came from the donors, are fully susceptible to the virus."
Anyone can make an omelet with eggs. The trick is to make one with none.
