... what is his further plan on public entertainment? I mean, I've been once on his lecture dedicated to free software, GNU and all-all-all. He seemed to be more entertaining than clowns or orthodoxy's priests, wonder he must have now more time to do that public entertainment on wider and deeper scale...
and read again "will be made available to both domestic police and foreign governments."
afaik, in typical law enforcement language this ALSO stands for "we are special police of govt country X and recently we have got this fingerprints/pic attached/ in relation with terrorism accident - please verify it against your database and notify us if reply is positive"
with eCos, QNX and stuff like that you won't have all community-developed bunch of SW - if you stick e.g. with Debian/Ubuntu just modify slightly CPU/power hogs like desktop SW, and it is ready.
Start to collaborate with Ubuntu - THAT IS the way
Mark, when you think about swap partition, try to read general material on NAND flashes, especially how long it will last, and how linux swap partition will affect a matter of dying...;)
your comment sounds like LJ admins are actually hostages of poor, eclectic design of LJ architecture, don't you think so? the fact thatr LJ needs manual intervention after power loss like this means that noone ever had been thinking on design, rather using duct tape to close coimng gaps in performance.
and, yes, having all data in one datacenter - it is major design flaw.
Unless the Russians can sell a few of these new vehicles it isn't going to get built
there is always space for maneure - why, do you think, Putin gets down Yukos on their knees? he want to shoot two ducks with one bullet, actually: more money in hands of his power and less power in someone's else hands. And there will be also money for big toyz at Baykonur and Pliseck - while he never admits, VVP likes to be a mecenate. No, The Mecenate:)
I mean - do you see any difference between "being hacked by bunch of hackers" and "being sued by bunch of sueing-addicted lawyers"? I don't see any difference. This is one of dark sides of democracy - being hacked and being sued;)))
I'd like to extend proposed model. Such liberal-anarchy "country" would be in few steps from being attacked by real govt's - just because being out of _any_ international agreements:(
Well, as for me, the only thing, which I miss a lot in Internet - MORE intellectual filter in search engines. Example: I have tired to balance on search "narrowing". If I supply more words - often responce is "no result". If I keep to supply just few words - the result is enormous in terms of resulting entries. So, it could be nice (at least - in my opinion) to have a filter, which implements more intelligent search without interface complication, with feature "never show me that bunch of stupid/porno/advertisment/promotional sites". More detailed about last feature: I would like to have something like "additional button" in every entry of found results with functionality "NEVER show me such kind of web sites in search results - it makes me crazy";) You could ask me - what is common in this feature with AI. My answer is here: it is too difficult for simple program to guess what I'm thinking about.
I should note to your second point: "...or the flip side which is those that know real well but are complete mercenaries and would screw over their employer or client in a heartbeat..." - in almost all cases employers of such "mercenaries" are anything, but not the lambs. They are ready to get out skin (e.g. salary/wages, benefits, etc) on each employee without any doubt in soul. Actually, they do NOT have a soul - they are employers. So, they deserve each other. Don't cry for poor employers:)
... but World != America;) There are lot of countries, where word "MP3 piracy" does not exist. Why I should limit myself to STUPID American law limits, if I'm living outside US? If you want to be limited by US law - ive in US and enjoy it. But don't limit other people/countries - they are not part of US justice domain.
I'd rather recommend you to ask your operator in UK about a favour. AFAIK they are quite helpful to persons, which going to be in US for short time. So, they could give you an AMPS/D-AMPS phone for time of travel (usually you should left them your current phone). But the price of roaming could be quit high. They can help you also to choose right ISP to make your amusement with Net more cheaper. So, ask your mobile operator...
I have just few comments. Being a Russian in mother tongue (as far as Ukrainian:), I'd like to suggest you don't get it all very serious:) One (ancient russian writer) once said: "Russian law is very cruel and bloody... But it is compensated by the possibility don't keep law at all". Secondly: FYI "Russkie" is in plural, so you don't have to put "s" at the end of word:) Thirdly: ALL the Russian law system exists only for one reason - to remove all, who is "not good" or "not suitable" for current clan at government. So, there is no difference, does one catched in legal way "for using crypto" or "just" brutally killed somewhere on the street. And last suggestion: before to get somebody in friends, try to get into his/her/their mentality. It doesn't help to avoid problems, rather helps from shock on "unusual" behavior:) Feel free to ask for comments on silpol@yahoo.com

oh, yeah, make and all other tools running on tiny target box - fine grained control Gentoo style in Real Life ;)

well, infrastructure docs are way outdated, and they do NOT have documenting sync often ;)

QNX has been in reality BEFORE first Linux went out from LT hands... watch your facts - it helps...
I'm just wondered who is so smart to call court cases as "advertisment for free". Never heard about cheap lawyers ;)
He meant $10 million vs. $500 million...
I mean - do you see any difference between "being hacked by bunch of hackers" and "being sued by bunch of sueing-addicted lawyers"? I don't see any difference. This is one of dark sides of democracy - being hacked and being sued ;)))
I think it is better to ask Russians to do such a delivery - they are perfect in cargo delivery to lunar surface... No kidding...

it looks like BoM (Bill of Materials) :)))

... more reliable and stable, than any of M$ platforms...
