In Bankruptcy Court, SCO never listed Caldera Linux as an asset. When the Unix assets were sold to Unxis (now Xinuos), Caldera Linux was not included. Which means that SCO still retains ownership of "OpenLinux".
The irony of ironies would be if they brought it back and by virtue of not having systemd, it shot to the lead in the Enterprise Linux market.
No matter how well coal plants operate their scrubbers, they leave huge amounts of toxic coal ash that have a habit of ending up in our rivers and groundwater.
"Environmental groups have hailed the various charges against the company as vindication for their years of efforts to get regulators to hold Duke accountable for the pollution leaking from 32 coal ash dumps at 14 power plants scattered across the state. The ash, which is the waste left behind when coal is burned to generate electricity, contains toxic heavy metals."
Citing batteries in an electric car as things that destroy the ecosystem seems disingenuous at best. Can you provide references from someone other than the fossil fuel industry and auto manufacturers?
Next are you going to try to sell us on the idea that the nasty toxic chemicals used to make silicon solar cells are ruining the planet, and we need to stick to good 'ol coal fired power plants because they put 'Muricans back to work??
Coal power is used to charge the EVs and coal ash has the same problems when the coal ash lakes spill into rivers.
I'm not too keen on funding EV owners polluting the land and groundwater with the chemicals from their nasty batteries. If you want to destroy ecosystems, at least do it on your own dime.
It's certainly possible, but after the emails that came out showing that they made a special effort to run off anyone who was competent and conscientious, it's more plausible that they actually just suck that much.
It is hard to imagine them being able to instantly become competent after so much effort was put into warding off competence.
Steve Wozniak (co-founder of Apple) spent the night in jail when he was high school for doing this kind of thing, and didn't get to meet the president:
Ultimately, food safety is the responsibility of the person eating it. If you're depending on the federal government to determine your biological makeup, you might be doing it wrong.
Since the genes will escape into the wild and the GMOs are targeted for consumption over a lifetime, a 90 day feeding study seems a bit short. I haven't heard of anyone getting cancer after smoking tobacco for 90 days, either.
Since non-GMO foods have been consumed over many lifetimes of consumption, their safety or lack thereof has been pretty well established.
It looks like GNOME has long outlived its usefulness of working around Qt being under an unsuitable license way back when KDE was the de facto standard DE. With its current contributions of pouring fuel onto the fire of the init system debate and now wanting to fund a pissing match over trademarks, it looks like the project is doing more harm than good.
I set up a lab VM with SLES 12 with / on btrfs last week and enabled snapper. After several hours of downloading and installing various projects from github to try out (including lots of dependencies), it was a quick and easy cleanup to restore to the snapshot it had taken an hour before I started.
Having worked with Solaris and LiveUpgrade for a number of years, I really like the prospect of having similar functionality in Linux to enable backing out a distro upgrade.
No, those are forks.
FreeBSD is not just a kernel like Linux. FreeBSD is the entire package. You don't have other distros, you have forks of the original.
Of course, I appreciate the fact that FreeBSD's base is an integrated system which is maintained as a unit as opposed to Linux distributions which are sourced from multiple projects.
Flouride in water supplies is beneficial. The others aren't.
Not so fast. Here is a referenced document with the problems of flouride in drinking water. Highlights include that the type used in water supplies is industrial grade (i.e., industrial waste) vs pharmaceutical grade (like in toothpaste) and that modern research shows there is no benefit from ingestion into the body (which leaves only the harmful effects)
I had been using GKG.Net, as it was a Slashdot darling in this kind of story 5 or 6 years ago. Things turned bad when I let one of my names go a couple days past the expiration date. I had never had that be a big deal before (I had that happen using DomainMonger and paying a few days late was never a big issue, but their prices had become double that of the competition). GKG, however, demanded $60 in addition to the cost of the domain renewal fee, saying that 3 different people in their organization had to work on the request. They would only take the $60 as a money order, too, which struck me as incredibly shady. Since I had taken a year and a half off to study, I didn't have money to frivolously throw away on domain extortion, so I let it go and thought I'd just register it when it dropped off. No such luck, and for the past 2 years some squatters in Vancouver have had it.
Since then, I have been using VoxDomains and it has been a good experience. $6.95 domains, and when I forgot the password to my account and wanted to make sure a payment got through, it was no problem to contact a representative and get the payment posted. When one of my domains expired with VoxDomains, they had the domain redirect to a "please pay us" page, and when I paid them the regular domain registration fee, everything turned out fine.
My guess is that it was the Remembrance Day colorized poppy quarter. Not only do they have the strange rough surface in the center, they are also painted red. It is the oddest Canadian coin I have ever come across, anyway.
In any case, I was hoping that of all government leaders at least Putin would have enough backbone to withstand these ridiculous demands of the RIAA^C^C^C^C US government.
I noticed a couple errors in your post. It's ctrl-h that is used to backspace and delete a character, not ctrl-c.
Also, you have misidentified a multinational interest group as a US issue. In the US, copyrights were extended to "harmonize" with Europe's after lobbying by this same group. Rather than blame Europe, however, I think most everyone figured out that it was The Cartel behind this kind of thing, not a particular government.
What I can't understand is why everyone still goes ga-ga over MySQL. It doesn't follow standards for syntax, it doesn't scale for statement complexity, and it's reputation for reliability and recoverability is deservedly bad.
I think it is mostly due to historical reasons, and because MySQL hangs out in the sweet spot for many uses. I started using MySQL in 1997. In 1997, the only free SQL databases around for skunkworks projects were MySQL and miniSQL, version 1 of which had a single-threaded engine making it unusable for multi-user applications like anything on the web, and its version 2 would returned random query results due to some persistent bug. Even PostgreSQL was looking unmaintained and wasn't a viable option.
At the same time, Linux, Free Software and web applications started taking off, so everyone started using it on Linux for SQL work since it was the only reasonable choice. Of course, once Linux became popular and corporate managers found out their companies used it, the big database vendors ended up porting, too, but MySQL had already gained its fame and was a free download.
Now that PostgreSQL and Firebird are around, I am pleased to see free software applications getting compatibility.
For what it's worth, working with MySQL has put quite a few loaves of bread on my table.;) (along with Oracle, DB2, Sybase, PostgreSQL...)
But if you moved sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org to third it would stop less spam because spamcop or njabl would have blocked it... many spammers are on all three lists. Which ever list you put first will get more hits.
Right, I have them listed first because it was the only one at the time of the problem which had the attacker listed. I think it is due to their approach, how they really do stay on top of which networks are being used by which spammers.
First, some stats on the mail server I use from a year ago yesterday and yesterday:

As spamhaus is currently rejecting 40631 emails which consequently don't have to be processed by spamassassin, it would be definitely be felt on this server were Spamhaus to become available. In fact, the reason I started using RBLs to begin with was due to one of the Spamhaus ROKSO culprits sending about 20,000 messages per hour to a dictionary list of users at a hosted domain. The server was dying then, but using OpenBSD's pf databases together with the spamhaus SBL, the problem was stopped cold.
"The cloud" is networking terminology. For example, in a network diagram for two different offices, the ISP connection between the two is "The cloud" where who-knows-what goes on. The cloud carries the implication of being an untrusted network.
To secure traffic over "The Cloud" on networks, we use VPN. The article is apparently using that as a metaphor applied to the idea of securely using untrusted third party e-commerce infrastructure.

I'll give the edge to OpenBSD on the songs (OK, OpenBSD is killing it by far).
SLES has been a kick-ass EL distro for the past couple of years that I have used it, though. It's good to see them branching out musically, too.
It's certainly possible, but after the emails that came out showing that they made a special effort to run off anyone who was competent and conscientious, it's more plausible that they actually just suck that much.
It is hard to imagine them being able to instantly become competent after so much effort was put into warding off competence.
What happened? When did you become a common cyberbully?
