  3. Extension of what can already be done with audio by cluke · · Score: 1 · on Digital Mouths, Synthetic Faces at MIT and Lucasfilm

    This seems like a natural evolution of what can be done with audio.
    Have a listen to this crude but effective splice up of George W. done by Chris Morris.
    It sacrifices any attempt at authenticity in favour of humour, but shows the idea well - getting someone to appear to be saying the total opposite of what they meant to say. With video added imagine how much more effective this could be.

    In fact, apache.org [apache.org] was compromised this year due to a security hole

    Well yes Apache.org did get compromised but NOT due to an Apache server problem. It was a complicated hack and took advantage of a configuration problem (mainly Apache had their incoming FTP tree viewable in their web space among others) Or perhaps you're referring to another event.

    Yes, Apache is not all nice point and click, but there ARE tools out there (Webmin's Apache module is NICE) to make administration easier. Yes Apache has had vulnerabilities in teh past, but considering its widespread use and installed base, I'm extremely impressed with how secure its been - upgrades to Apache are rare which reduces TCO.

    Yes, all systems and software have problems. But overall, I'll stick with OSS where appropriate and regarding your issues with MySQL and Apache, a few simple posts to mailing lists or news groups related to the software will often get your problem fixed faster than most 3rd party setups.
