I regretfully inform you that all communication with Honorable gentlemen should consist soley of cheers OR jeers , any dialogue that a child aged 10 isn't capable off understanding would require the Honorable gentleman to actually engage his brain more than 30% of the time and this is an unneeded stress and will soon be outlawed all together.
I couldn't agree more, i simply can't see OO ever being more than an MS clone (although its not like abiwordits or gnumeric are doing amazing things either). I mean its great that there is an option if you want that, but i doubt anybody will ever get excited over a word/spreadsheet/presentation program and generally the alternatives (koffice/goffice/etc) seam to run faster.
Aslong as the 'spin' isn't just flat out lies: virgin simply lie here, the reality of being on virgin is if 1) you have unencrypted torrents 2) you upload more than 10,25,45 kb/s (yes there are 3 distinct caps even though they claim 2) for more than a few minutes 3) all your traffic slowed (not 75% but 100% of pings to Google will take >3s) So they have two pages on their site explaining what they do and how they do it, no mention of phorm and only a hint of truth between both of them.
It seams to be more about image than censorship, they are allowing other (which is retarded as others should be allowed anyway) to host book they don't want their name associated with. Refusing to stock hardcore porn in a library (preserving the image of the library) is very different from banning hardcore porn anywhere (censorship).
This isn't meant to be practical, just theoretical, hence starting from minix instead of a full blown kernel is a good idea.
Oh, you want a system where the user can generally do his work but has to ask for special privileges when he wants to install new software or change security critical settings? Where have I heard 'bout that before... hmmm...
UAC, is a damn good idea, the implementation in vista is piss poor. If you stuck a UAC-like interface on selinux/apparmor (something like fireflies was for iptables), you can then put restrictive set of policies on all apps and have pop ups for fringe cases/new software. While not 100%, it instantly lowers the bar for securing an OS to something achievable by anybody with a clue about how programs work, a not overly alarmist color code warning scheme might might even help the rest. But i digress, UAC was a well needed step for windows security.
I don't think it has flash support, but given a seed page (any random wikipedia start page), wget, bash, and logins to a few torrent sites , i think you could whip together something akin to that, additionally it could check Slashdot and regularly get you first posts.
If its done well it could easily not glorify the war at all. A cold harsh look at the realities of what happened, would defiantly get me to buy a copy and i think both wars were entirely retarded. I also think a lot of gamers are fairly could put their political opinions aside and just enjoy the game.
Right because a game, suggested and supported by the some of the troops who actually served in iraq, and wanted to get across the harsh realities of war, is totally the same as a crappy killbinladen, team-america-ftw game!
Nobody asked for tracing, but IBM refused to show any kind of log (they eventually published some logs on the internet, but not for some time). The way the computer suddenly change its strategy in the 2nd game, after having studied hundreds of games for it to change so suddenly after the 1st game was at least a bit suspicious, so some proof they hadn't just overridden big blues decision with human expertize would have been nice.
Organized Criminals and terrorists will just start using payphones
That's where operation stink off piss, comes into play, police sniffer dogs will easily be able to catch the guy that has spent more than a few minutes using any payphone.
traditional mail (post).
and shutting down the post offices in villages means all terrorists will have to migrate to the big cities.
If we consider the fact that the database could do stuff to save space, you can probably assume less than 2^32 email addresses and compress ever email address to an integer 40bit index, ip addresses are 28bits and dates 16bit(good 180years). at 136b per email (68 extra bits, per extra recipient) you can deal with 56million individual emails per gigabyte (Its hard to estimate how many email recipients revive each spam mail, but ill guess 63) so 4368b per sent spam means they could log 2m sent spams (124m received) per GB. If we take the 2008 figures of 210B/day but assume 72% spam and 4% go to/from uk, 8.4B (6B spam) it would take 43GB/day to store legit records, but ~3TB/day to store all the spam. There is however a huge assumption that when the sources cite numbers for emails sent, they actually mean emails sent, if they are citing emails received then all the spam takes up 'just' 48GB/day and storage is actually feasibly, over a week (9.8 days) per terabyte (spread amongst all the isps)
All calculations are estimates, i know nothing about real life databases, the index would take up space, etc, feel free to improve my estimates or provide a good source for the estimates i used number of emails addresses? (i think a trillion should be the right order of magnitude if you include spammers) emails per day? (spams per day)? average recipients per email? (i assumed 1 and 63 per spam, but both are probably wildly inaccurate) email traffic in the uk? (Seriously my source was a 2005 paper with nothing to do with email use)
that said i think the estimates probably provide the correct magnitude If 210B individual emails are sent per day, each isp will likely have store a Terabytes for every few days. However if 210B emails are recived then each isp will likely have to store a Terabyte of data every few weeks.
We haven't even got our bins back:(, it's not Islamic terrorists MO to put bombs in bins anyway! Also northern Ireland isn't occupied, so "giving it up" would spark up unionist terrorism, and even without the US funding the IRA got, that's still a lot of trouble.
Just because i like some of his work, doesn't make me a fan of him. I realize it was a stupid thing to put, but my point was that i prefer the gpl2 like freedoms over the more 'hard-line' gpl3
I'm no RMS fan (GPL2 all the way) but isn't this shit obvious? The only point in software as a service's defense, is that at least you know you don't own the software.
logs or it didn't happen! what they did to Kasparov was bullshit! Seriously if this magically gets better at 1/2 time, the least they can do is show the logs
Assuming of course all boxes have the same version of the OS, the same packages installed, etc.
How so? I'm fairly sure most repositories deal with multiple versions, and just because a repo has a package doesn't mean it's installed on all computers that connect to it. As a single box can serve as both a debian and RPM repo.
Lifetime +25 seems reasonable to me - even if the old goat's work is published the day he dies, his estate has a quarter CENTURY to make something of his work.
whats wrong with 28 years and renew by the original author, the estate gets 28 years if they publish the day he dies. The solution to your the who owns the copyright is to only allow the original author/claimant to renew the copyright. Additionally renewing copyright should require registration (very few things would be worth re-registration and so there wouldn't be the same problem with excess requests)

Because the tech is damn cool! Sure it won't replace your mouse, but there are still scenarios where it's useful too.

don't fucking install the addon if you don't want it! AND why the hell would it be running at start-up if its a VM???
If you don't like it, don't use it. At least its there if you want it.
Clearly Giuliani has had, no effect on you, he must mention 9/11 MORE!

And the Labour & Conservatives Parties seems happy to let it happen.
Fixed that for you. I know lots of people in the UK that are aghast at what's happening.
A lot of the anti-terror legislation gets through on Torry votes, because some Labour backbenchers have balls.

Why would you copyright things that arn't worth any money, if a book isn't going to make more than $35 who the hell is going to steal it?
