Obviously it's easier to rig elections with electronic systems, which is a good reason to like electronic voting if you're a scumbag.
I think you answered your own question there...
I found it here:
Looks like MIT/BSD style license.
I'm guessing Nintendo "represents" these very same game manufacturers because Nintendo licenses the right to produce software for the platform. Thus, as a result, Nintendo controls who can write software for this platform, and makes money from the manufacturers as a result - thus the manufacturers are "lucky" to get anything at all, since Nintendo makes the rules (sound familiar? hint: app store).
It's important to note that Nintendo does produce games of their own as well.
I'm ecstatic that they're going to open the source!
Having just experienced the Alpha 2 release of Haiku, I'd love to see a few of these games ported to that platform as well.
Now I'm glad I bought the Humble Indie Bundle, even though I haven't had time to play any of the games yet
Most of the BeOS peolpe have moved on... several ended up back at Palm, some at Apple, but many ended up at Google working on Android, etc.
BeOS is history... these days it's much better to just use Haiku if you want an open source BeOS.
Palm doesn't own it... any why bother, when Haiku exists.
Yup...
Besides, Haiku http://haiku-os.org/ is now much better than BeOS ever was - reviving BeOS would be pointless with a more modern open source replacement already in existence.
Your rumor will die pretty quickly considering Palm doesn't own the rights to BeOS...
Which is why they're still trading in after hours (for as much as $5.94/share last I checked)... and the deal won't even be finalized until July 31st.
Even then, there's already a class action lawsuit being setup to investigate the "speedy" sale and Palm's fiduciary duty to its shareholders:
I wouldn't be so certain this is a finalized deal quite yet...
Nope, it's owned by ACCESS now, and previous PalmSource. Palm hasn't owned it since PalmSource split off.
They say only sixeyate made it back online though...
I tried it... after seeing a lot of naked "boy" chests (clearly a lot of high school or college kids showing off their "six pack") it finally stopped on a guy that looked reasonable to chat with.
Chatted with him for about 10-15 mins, just exchanging some random questions and info. Wasn't too bad, except he was from China and his english wasn't so great
Overall, definitely has potential for some random social interaction if you have nothing better to do.
