That logic is like saying that all plasma in the solar system evolved in the sun and when things enter into the Earth's atmosphere and are enveloped in plasma, they must do so by way of the sun. How else could plasma get here to Earth?
I've never seen this game or anything like it. (too young) It sounds to me to be like one of those interactive books. It would seem to be a little easier to go the book route than to have to mess around with 70's era computers. How this was successful at all is a wonder.
Maybe use something other than paper. Have you ever seen paper that has been touched a lot over the course of a few years? It's not so pretty. Maybe the use of some polymer is in order.
Aren't companies, like Redhat in the example, just out to turn a profit like everyone else?
Companies have to do what makes sound economic sense in order to please the stakeholders. If it weren't for those stakeholders, companies producing Linux distros on a large scale, like Redhat in the example, would have never proliferated as well as they have.
I applaud them for having a business model that isn't just anti-"the man" but also ensures the company's longevity so that they can keep getting better. The prices on the enterprise/corporate editions are reasonable compared to Windows. I say show your support for a distro you believe in and get the enterprise/corporate edition.
How is it even possible to have a 3 ton chunk of rock left over after it exploded 800+ feet in the air? It would have either sluffed-off in plasma form when coming through the atmosphere or been turned to dust in the explosion. 3 ton Tunguska meteorite? I don't think so. Hoax.
I saw this coming after Redhat stopped making Linux for everyone and went corporate only. Sure there is Fedora; but it's not Redhat. The same thing applies to SuSE/OpenSuSE.
I, for one, like corporate Linux. The support is all there. With community distros, I can't tell you how many times my questions have gone unanswered or have been mocked. With corporate editions, I can actually call/email someone with and issue and get a response in a timely manner.
I understand the whole attitude about keeping Linux free; but alienation of community users by community users is a good way for community Linux to shoot itself in the foot.
I seem to remember a small government lobbying group having the power to tell the country what to do in the 1920's on moral grounds. (prohibition) We see how that worked-out. Organized crime made a decent living off of it. The point is: it's never a good idea to give "moral" lobbying groups any power. It's a Pandora's Box.
As for closing shop and having to refund all the customers, that wasn't such a bright move on Squirrelboy's part. Of course, using DRM in the first place wasn't so bright.
Scientists have turned into theoretical zealots. Just because a theory is widely accepted as true, doesn't necessarily make it true. In the same respect, theories widely regarded as false, may be true.

What are their metrics for customer satisfaction? Is it really quantitative or are they applying numbers to qualitative metrics just to get numbers?
I think my BS meter is going off. At least it has metrics that are rock solid!

1. How are they going to produce this on a massive scale?
2. How is this going to be economical?
3. What does OSHAA and the California Board of Health have to say about people working with e. Coli on a massive scale?
4. People should quit whining over spelling errors. Nobody is perfect.
In Soviet Russia, record steals you!
I blame the intern!
Actually, M$ is one of the ones looking out from the spiderhole.
The company is worth peanuts as it is. The pending lawsuits should be enough to shrink the company's assets to nearly $0 after attorney fees.
Is there a "+1 Obligatory" mod we could give this guy?
First computer for me was the '88 model of IBM XT bought brand-new... just to give you a measuring stick of how far back I go.

"Is it safe to use Linux now?", they say timidly.

I'm kinda new to enterprise servers. In the picture it looks as though each CPU has its own bank of memory. If so, is that efficient or not?

What's that smell? I think it's the smell of the p#$$y of a coward!

... and they're kinda nervous about their service release record being broken...
...duopoly in the market for operating systems It's an oligopoly as it is and always will be. Don't forget the recent growth of Mac.Something else to make the experience of flying all that much more unpleasant for the rest of us!

Google had a video store? This is news to me!

Could you imagine a Dyson Sphere of these?
