As long as they clearly define:
o exactly when customers will be throttled
o exactly how much customers will be throttled
o allow customers to see how much they been throttled for each month
o allow customers to opt out of their contract without penalty if they don't
agree to the change
Seems perfectly reasonable if they did that.... Not holding my breath
> What's the usability of such energy producing machinery?
It's amazing what you can do with 100+ year old technology... steam engine... generates electricity...

I'm getting sick of Assange's promises of all this great information they are "going to leak". He has all of this info on corruption in the US banking system, on rich people evading taxes, and a bunch of other info which will be released if he disappears.
If he has information on illegal dealings, corruption, etc., release it.. Why the threats, why the talk? His current behavior is more like someone
trying to shake down folks, not someone trying to uncover the truth.
> RMS wrote the Gnu manifesto 25 years ago, one could argue it all started then
no. before GNU, there was "open source" code
"first Berkeley Software Distribution (1BSD), which was released on March 9, 1978"
I'm sure there was open source code before that too..
My son's Kindle has this problem... I removed the cover the other day and it has not had it sense. I just broke
out the multimeter, I was unable to get an electrical path even when scraping the paint on the hooks.
from wikipedia "Paul Buchheit is an American computer programmer and entrepreneur. He was the creator and lead developer of Gmail. He developed the original prototype of Google AdSense as part of his work on Gmail. He also suggested the company's now-famous motto "Don't be evil" in a 2000 meeting on company values.[1]"
Hmm, why the hate.. It sounds like he's done some stuff.. What have you done?
I would much rather have a Ubuntu based ARM netbook than a ChromeOS one. Just because an ARM netbook may be interesting.. Doesn't mean ChromeOS is.
by "root" I mean wait for someone to find a bug in the firmware so a program can be created to re-program the flash.
i.e. see Droid 2. It is not open.

The tweet is FUD... He missed the most important part.. How do you install this on a Droid or most other
Android devices? You need to root it just like you do to jailbreak a iPhone.
Android devices are far from open.. Don't believe the hype... My hope is for
a Ubuntu tablet.. Maybe that will actually be open...
Disagree.. It's because most CDs have one or two good songs and the rest are crap. Studios know this. Why do you think studios moved from singles to records in the first place? To make more money...
disclaimer: I work for Oracle, but not on Linux.. And I know nothing about this...
But it seems pretty obvious
The latest RHEL, 5.5, ships with a ancient (2.6.18) and heavily patch linux kernel.
That's the kernel RHEL supports commercially. It sounds like Oracle is going to
support 2.6.32 on the equivalent distro.. i.e. no need to wait for, or upgrade to RHEL 6.
So what's confusing and troubling? The fact that Oracle is saying a 2.6.32 kernel is
better than a heavily patch 2.6.18 kernel?
Nothing is stopping RHEL from doing the same... But I'm sure they would
rather have their customers upgrade to RHEL 6..
your on to something here. Let's all give 100% of the money we make to the government so they can distribute it fairly.
> The new iPod Touch is going to dominate the market. It's better than many point and shoot cameras
ummmm... yeah... No....
From the tech spec...
still photos (960x720) with back camera
They put a crappy camera in there.. Just meant for video. Doesn't make much sense...
Maybe they're trying to protect the iCamera market in 2011...
It's not surprising... A lot of things have been pointing to Microsoft building their own H/W in this space. HP canceling Slate and buying Palm. Dell going with Android. It makes a lot of sense for Microsoft to build their own ipod, ipad, and ARM based "netbook" like machines. If true, in the long run, I think this puts more pressure on Dell and HP.
An adequate bootstrap is a contradiction in terms.
