Do they allow kids to vote?

"Anonymous Coward" never seemed more appropriate...

In many senses, it already happened.

How many programs did you download to your PC? My mom uses a browser and mostly nothing else. Most people I know are perfectly happy with online Office and Google apps. My e-mail client is a web application, as is my calendar, my spreadsheet and my notepad. My word processor is also a web application. What's left is the collection of compilers and system administration tools, terminals and so on most users don't need or know how to use.

The fact they are still x86-based laptops or desktops is due to manufacturing scales, mostly.

And they don't even think of gerrymandering at this level.

This.

Also, didn't they think of properly set file permissions?

This corruption scandal has been going on for more than two decades, perhaps 3. Funny thing that only a single party (that ranks as the third one most mentioned in this investigation) is being dragged through the mud. It's notable the former presidential candidate that leads the largest opposition party (if you don't count the opposing half of the largest government coalition party) has been named no less than five times by different witnesses and yet has been spared from the media spotlights. And, mind you, Aécio's party is the #1 in terms of candidates that can no longer run for office due to the "Ficha Limpa" law and their corruption charges.

This is not justice. This is a circus.

No. It was not sensitive government e-mails. Instituto Lula is an NGO.

I'm pretty sure Slashdot is a US site. From where did you get that EU thing?

Dear too coward to show your name,

How exactly will Brazil hold the torch of freedom when its police can't follow a simple court order? When half the elected officers are pushing for an illegal impeachment so they can stop an investigation that threatens them? Where pretty most every media outlet wages a non-stop PR war against a single party so that their chosen ones (the ones always involved but never mentioned) stand a chance to win the next presidential elections?

Give me a break. Speaking ill of your country?

Or, better, if Apple convinced you to design the Apple IV as an intellectual successor to the Apple II, completely ignoring Mac and iOS ecosystems (and the Apple III, which we all understand as not being your fault) and building it for hardware and software hackers, without losing the kitchen-table-friendliness of the II, what would it look like? Would it be a self-contained box with internal slots? Would it be beige?

What would an Apple II look like if it were built today?

I have a picture that kind of explains it

It's actually sad.

Courts still find it credible enough to accept patent lawsuits. Even trolls have credibility in East Texas.

We may even codename the next release "Paris"...
