That's irrelevant the debian fiasco was some developer deliberately changing some code to integrate it into debian better, distro synchronisation would happen above that level, only fixes to actual upstream code would be synchronised, not integration tweaks.
Basically its a very long post, but the gist of what I read was why dont you just build it yourself instead of asking us to to drop nicely packaged tars on your doorstep.
Dear monkey, may i point out due to the infinite number of you you dont need infinite time yet, merely enough time to write out one copy of one work by Francis bacons each, and collate them Alternatively you could each write one chapter and collate all the chapters, but i suppose that's a managerial decision.
No an its an infinite number of monkeys given a finite amount of time (specifically that required to type the number of characters in Shakespeare). Alternatively a single monkey with an infinite amount of time would produce the entire works of Shakespeare.
An infinite number of monkeys with infinite amount of time would produce an infinite number of copies of Shakespeare work, and an infinite number of derivatives (some of which would be finitely better, but people poorly versed in infinity would claim to be infinitely better)
No they're not, its under CC-attribution-no commercial-no derivative license. They can print it off and sell at cost price ofc, but they cant get a cut.
The horror that is the CC license, i take particular objection to no derivative, which seams a lot like microsoft's shared source, "you can look, but you cant touch". In practice (this)CC license is no different to proprietary licenses only under cc you can copy legally (which has no real affect for proprietary products anyway)
Child porn downloading needs to be made illegal to increase the cost of making and distributing it. That is, if downloads weren't illegal and the people downloading it weren't afraid of getting caught, their cost/benefit would be different. Making it legal to download but not to make child porn decreases the cost for consumers, which would make it more easily profitable for sellers. And for producers in foreign countries would have more direct, legit distribution. That would encourage more child porn, etc. You assume that the motive for making child porn is profit. I doubt anybody is going to go out and rape a child for profit, and even if they did the slight increase in production is more than cancelled out by the number of people that get caught abusing their children.
it's obscene material -created- by people who sought to create obscene material and profit from it. I very doubt much obscene material is made for profit and even if it is its illegal to profit from your crimes (well in the uk at least), and so anybody making obscene material for profit can be charged on that, aswell as the original illegal offence. If this is not the case in the US then perhaps that law need to be made, in some form, to prevent the people doing illegal stuff to then sell videos of it for profit, instead of stopping people getting caught by keeping the videos in tight circles.
No it would imply that the child porn that is already created (in the majority of cases by family & friends), would be on the internet. Having it openly on the internet just means the sick bastards that make it are more likely to get caught.
I doubt anybody is sick enough to rape children for profit, but even if they were that would still be illegal as its illegal to profit from a crime (well in the UK it is anyway) and if its not that make that illegal.
Getting the pictures out there just makes it more likely that a pedo will get caught.
But our government is unable to find those individuals most of the time Also wouldn't it be easier to catch them if their pictures were all over the internet.
I was thinking something along the lines of a law against putting government officials in an unfavorable light, what do you guys think? Nobody gives a shit what we think tho, the real question is what do the government officials (who may one day be portrayed in an unfavourable light) think.
Well if you 'starred' in it, then your picture got passed on to the authorities, you got identified and you molester got put in jail, id guess you'd be pretty happy about it.
Having videos on the internet of you getting rapped as a kid is a small price to pay to stop getting rapped.
Bug fixes on the stable version you normally get 1-2 months between release (doing the maths actually give you an average of 6 weeks between (non-bug fix fix) releases), if you cant be bothered to check if your extension still works every 4-6 weeks perhaps its time to let it go.
While you do have a point that granular versioning (is that the right term) would be nice so that security fixes dont mean you have to bump your bookmark extension, I think it would do more to confuse developers than help them.
Including (THINK OF THE CHILDREN!) child pornography? Snuf films?
You sick bastard
If there was more child porn on the internet it would be alot easier to catch a lot of pedos, who actually hurt children. Something like 90% of abuse comes from people they know, some freak watching some child porn isn't going to hurt any kids, but might help stop the abuse.
Given that java is fairly standard on mobiles is it not possible to encrypt phone calls or at least sms through it.
Im not talking PGP or anything fancy but just have a 5-10mb (im sure phones can store that) random character map. at 10mb they need to get ~3500 encrypted text messages (with that key) before you repeat the same mapping. So if you change keys every 3000 messages its like a one time pad and even if you dont it would be hard to tell when you start repeating and im sure more than 2 messages encrypted with the same random key are needed to crack it so youd be safe well upto 10-15,000 messages. OFC it would only work with people who also have the software, but does this stuff exist yet
Voice encryption would be nice too but i have no idea how that would be implemented, but as overhead per message isnt an issue im sure youd probably be able to use your standard pgp key over whatever cyper you choose.
Yeah i remember somewhere between crushing miners strikes and deliberately starting a war, thatcher was great on civil liberties...oh wait those cameras didn't suddenly appear by magic.
The curtailing of civil liberties is a labory (it works better than laboritive, honest) achievement.
but if you actually use your console (assuming the wii stays at 17w) then just 2hrs24mins of console use a day is the same as the wii.
I dont see why they dont use xbox style updates meaning it can be properly shut down, if they really want to update during the night, then including a wakeup clock in the bios would have been a better solution.

But if you find a bug you can simply start firefox in safe mode without extensions, or better yet a blank profile, to recreate the bug.
actually the key 4 letters is not anti, its just DMCA. Scientology copyright thier crazy shit so nobody can repeat it.

And it is defiantly benefiting their users, however they only seam to be fixing hackingtosh stuff
Seams to work for a very popular OS around here. Alternatively they could make you take it into an apple store where they upgrade it for you.
Hmm, that posts seams logical and well reasoned, imposter! Your no mac fanboy!
what about for all the Wiis that arnt running animal crossing (or some equally stupid game)?
Would WOL not work for all wired wiis ?
by installing windows on it obviously
