Not only that, but the lack of personal accountability.

Even Adam Smith, the corporatists darling (even though they ignore this part), railed against any form of limited liability.

They're in Mini-PCIe slots almost all of the time.

The other problem that you have to deal with, though, if NONE of the cards are supported, is the fact that many laptops need a BIOS hack to use third-party WiFi cards (to either disable the check, or add in the PCI vendor and device IDs for the card you're using).

Manifold pressure is actually a useful one for constant diagnostics on a turbocharged engine - if it doesn't come up at all or comes up slowly or late, you've likely got a turbo control issue, if it goes up too high, you've likely got a turbo control issue that could get very expensive very quickly.

It sounds like they didn't provide an adequate defense, because he had to hire $75,000 of lawyers.

And, in the US, you can get a public defender, too. Said public defender is usually about as good at defending as Windows Me is at being a stable, modern, secure operating system.

Here in the US, the system is actually designed to make it very easy to let someone not get convicted if a law is found to not be just.

Unfortunately, that's been subverted badly. And, as we export our political problems to Canada, look what happens.

And, the way the justice system - at least in the US, not sure about Canada - was originally designed, the designers decided it was worth Al Capone running free, and he would eventually find himself staring down the barrel of one of his victim's firearms, taking care of the problem.

Because the measurement used to define time drifts slightly.

The second used to be defined based on the Earth's rotation, but cesium atomic clocks became so much more accurate than the earth itself, that the standard was changed to be based on the behavior of a cesium atom. The standard can always be changed again.

Annoyingly, looks like delegation is far less secure than it should be.

There's always OpenID, and becoming your own provider.

The funny thing is, I have a GRiDPad SL.

Black, has rounded edges, and a rectangular screen front and center. Yes, it does have some switches and a pen on the front, but...

Oh, I almost forgot to mention. The GRiDPad SL is a rebranded Samsung PenMaster.

I'd lean towards no, although I'd sequester the AGPL web app in its own directory.

After all, a closed source OS can bundle GPL software...

I'm getting the impression that it's one instance that all Slashdotters are using, and probably defining recursive functions to screw it up?

AGPL is like GPL, but with the additional restriction that you must share source code to users when hosting it on a public-facing server, IIRC.

...have a down payment on the phone, and a $20/mo charge, administered by the cellular carrier (because they can disconnect service for not paying your phone purchase bill).

There, it functions just like subsidies, but reflects the true purchase price of the phone better.

I also think that phone manufacturers should try that approach themselves, if they're selling a phone that a carrier doesn't want to sell themselves - rather than sell it for $600, sell it for $150 plus $20/mo for 24 months.

IIRC, it's an 11 megapixel sensor, to get a 1 megapixel image.

So, not TOO far off from 4k video, to get a low HD quality Lytro video.
