To be clear, is this because green energy is (yet) incapable of satisfying our current needs, or purely because our ability to generate green energy is as finite as from oil?

Don't forget that Google actively advertises Chrome (e.g. on the London Underground), so there's even more exposure than Firefox could dream of.

What purpose did you think an alternate OS would serve? To drive sales of Playstation games so that Sony could recoup their subsidy? I don't think so. You can hardly blame the Air Force for doing what Sony enabled them to do. The alternativ

How is telling a group "I have made no effort to do this task, can you guys do this for me" not rude?

Maybe not a technical failure, but I can hardly see events like this sitting well with consumers. (Although the problems associated with the Matrix's DVD release seemed to do little harm.)

The difference is, the Android appstore isn't the only source of apps.

We can live without many things, but that's irrelevant if we still choose to consume them. Perhaps ethically they have no value but they sure have financial value, that's why they're being produced and sold, then bought by us. We give them

It's no different to Firefox/IE though. Nothing wrong with being relatively better, either.

It's hard to know the origin of exported goods. Let's say your country exports wood, and you have imported screws. If you export furniture, do you assume it is built using screws, and measure the country's added value by subtracting the val

It's valid to recognise a pattern, a technique that you used. Name it if you like. The mistake is only made when they believe the pattern was made intentionally. More often than not, the only thought entering your mind as you compose is 'th

I'm not convinced it falls apart. It seems more like a failure to take account for the distance you must travel on your return from the menu bar.

Do I have to be the first to say just how hilarious these images are? I don't care for the Mac but even I'm interested by it now.

Forced airflow is several times more effective than relying on convection. Remember that hot air rises, so if the room was narrow, removing the shelf would indeed be sufficient. However, if the end of the room is quite far, it will take a q

There's more to it than language replacement - there are cultural differences and representation of numbers, quantities etc., RTL support, allowing users to input their data in more than one language and have it behave in a reasonable manne

In the UK it's legal to work below 16, but you can only be employed legally for a limited amount of hours. Self-employment doesn't have those restrictions, and you don't pay taxes either (until you turn 16).

So does your TV, if you have it switched on next to your laptop. The real issue is where the content comes from. The browser doesn't provide a document - it's a dumb conduit for the page you're after. Whether you paid for your browser (Wind

I didn't read it as outer good, inner bad . In the C/machine code case, C builds a set of abstractions on top of the unabstracted machine code. If you write some language in C that emulates the original machine code, then you have the prob

You need to understand what has come before so that you can build upon it effectively. Taking past progress for granted will not help develop the future; if anything, you'll get a lot more reinvented wheels. Among the higher-level problems

Sounds like you found a bad group and/or your presence wasn't obvious in a place like that. If it was a one-off, swap at least one of those problems and try again, otherwise I defer to more experienced persons...

The reason for "all extensions" is because some (obviously important) DOS programs would insist on saving everything with a certain extension; it's be whatever.pbf, hello.pbf. So how do you write to 'lpt1' when you can only save 'lpt1.pbf'?

The post is saying the garbage is coming from within because trusted members can get away with worse code. Enforcing different standards of quality control is unproductive since the weakest link in the chain determines the overall quality.

Browsing the web on a non-touchscreen phone that doesn't also have (e.g.) a trackball is not a fun experience.

No, Firefox is just the same. It's really a web server thing - there is such thing as 'caching', although OP seems to want to override such directives for all pages and have them all cached.
