That's my biggest problem with the Windows key. I love the functionality it provides, but it seems every keyboard has it in a slightly different position and a slightly different size.
Unless I'm on *my* keyboard, my fingers always hit the wrong meta-keys because of it.
Or Win+Space which opens up Gnome-Do.
Certainly no one would start a nuclear holocaust to make a point, but they might very well start one in order to fulfill a divine mandate.
I wouldn't put so much faith in base instincts.
They fought 5 years for it, so i doubt it.
Google fuck you! Tbh all search is pretty equal, i only stick with google because i thought they were generally a pretty good company, even if i can't get the clean results i like from google (because the fucks patented that too), i will most definitely be searching elsewhere!

It is the other way around: You patent something so you can publish it, without fear of your competitors. Otherwise you could propose a really good idea, get it established and widely used, patent it and sue world+dog.
A patent is a grant of exclusive rights to an invention in exchange for publishing. You don't acquire a patent so that you can publish something; you publish it so that you can dictate who can't use an invention.
IANAAL in any sense, but it seems to me that the Google front page being so horribly public would count as prior art. Everything I can find indicates that ANY publication in ANY form can constitute prior art.
It's been a while since I played, but I believe players can place a bounty on players that's visible to all players.
I'm not really sure why the bank wouldn't do this.
How will the oil drippings and the tire residue affect the panel output?
Of course. Since when do corporations do anything OTHER than make money?
If ever there was a question more deserving of facetious response...
That was a great game. Unfortunately, it was buggy and hard to get to run even when it was new.
Your best bet would probably be to run it from Windows 98. *shudder*
Some sort of physical DRM for printed copies?
That sort of thing has been available for quite some time.
A dialog could appear on whenever a user tries to use a
I can scarcely imagine something more annoying. It's also totally unnecessary. A shortcut explicitly created by a user would be given execute. A downloaded shortcut would not have it. Like anything else in *nix.
