Look what we have here. The village idiot announcing his leetness for using adblock. What do you think would happen if everyone started using adblock? Would we have less or more intrusive ads? Would it be easier or harder to block them?
You are as smart as a guy who found a trick to get free money out of ATMs and then goes telling everyone about it when they complain about their financial hardships.
Did you check and see what the actual temperature of the card is while working on these simple screens? Is this kind of meltdown really undetectable?
It's kind of strange. Wouldn't you need a lot of money to be able to afford the resources that retrieving and storing all these images require? If you are willing to invest in that kind of operation wouldn't you at least consider the legal implications that kind of service needs to deal with?
The problem is not Europe. The problem is that people don't understand that the price of technological products in the U.S is the lowest in the world.
Gadgets, software, LCD's, media etc... Their is not a cheaper place to buy them than in the U.S.
That's what i am wondering. Tablet PC's are not new, what makes the ipad so superior to what has been on offer until now?
I find it funny that before the ipad/flash debacle any mention of flash on
Now on the other hand, it's being regarded as of equal importance to our web surfing activity as having a decent browser.
According to the way you are interpreting the quote most people in the U.S are under bandwidth caps. Is this correct or not?
This is important to people on satellite, 3G, or the Southern Hemisphere, all of which have transfer caps on the order of 5 GB per month per subscriber.
That tells me a lot about the way you process and distribute information. I can personally vouch that there is definitely no transfer cap for the absolute majority of people in the country where I live, which is in the southern hemisphere. I am pretty certain the 5 GB number was also pulled from the same area of your ass where the rest of your "information" exists.
I will not comment on satellite connections or 3G(although unlimited bandwidth plans are fairly common) since unlike you I try to make sure that I have reliable information at hand before spreading it around as if it was fact.
It might have said "in return for 10 years of litigation we agree to pay $106 million
Like I said: I just want an honest presentation of the facts.
Your wording implies (deliberately, I suppose) that MS is still giving SCO money. This is not correct.
I just want an honest presentation of the facts.
Don't you mean, who funded them?
That is why the parent was talking about ethics. Unfortunately, these days for most people protesting is fine as long as you don't have to actually sacrifice anything.
Contributing to and old and large code is much more difficult than contributing to a small one. Getting your head around a large code base is no small task and documentation is often lacking. Even if the code is well commented it could be very difficult to understand the overall design of the software and how things interact with each other.
Based on Sun's financial demise I'm sure that Oracle is already aware that closed source software isn't always profitable either
I remind you that Sun open sourced almost their entire software portfolio.
But for some reason Linux users really like to complain how some software won't run or have a linux version.
