I hope your not talking about hacked servers and creditcard theft?
No, I'm talking about having policies in place to keep data private.
There was an European survey about six months ago or so, where they found out that even though the US laws are more lax, the US companies where generally better than their European counterparts.
Might be true in western Europe, but I don't think that's generally true. And even then, from what I remember, US companies are actually better at keeping privacy data private than European companies are (marked forces are stronger in the US than in Europe).

Bind9 isn't vulnerable to that. Heck, I doubt even bind8 was.
i'm sure the type 2 has the ability to gather more data and keep users from personalizing their machines.
serie 2 has more capability that than serie 1, because most of the userhacks that people did for serie 1 has been implemented in serie 2. Still, serie 2 still give me the ability to install more hd capacity (even upgrade the kernel, since the kernel they're using, linux 2.4.18 or something, has an upper limit of 137 GB), telnet into the system, install tivoweb etc.
And the bug was just discovered. Give them some time to fix it before you decide to hang them.
Then use a distro that has a policy in place, like Debian. I've installed third-party debs, and they all create the correct menu entries (mplayer, opera)
Although I think it's going to get easier once more distros follows the freedesktop standard.
All I ask is that the songs be associated with the person who made the music, not some ditzy little flake who teens want to fuck.
How many artist over the years have this been true for? Did Elvis write his own songs? I saw this program about Motown music, and from what I can see, none of the artists there actually wrote their own music. The impression I got was the British bands that came over in the 60's wrote their own songs, and groups like Mamas & Papas and Beach Boys.
Probably is going to take awhile for unstable. Debian doesn't move X-Window System into unstable until it gets it running on all supported platforms. There probably will be unofficial ports long before that, though.
With the FSF assigning the copyrights is not necessary if I remember correctly, just requested because the FSF is in a better position to keep the software free
I never heard of the assignment being optional. About all the major open source application out there (GNU stuff, GCC, Apache, Mozilla) requires reassignment of copyright for them to accept the contribution.
According to JMS, on CompuServer way back when, the fourth season was supposed to end with Sheridan's capture and torture.
The telepaths were supposed to be introduced in the 4th season and running in the background (Ivanova was supposed to get involved with the telepaths, not the redhead) through the 4th and 5th season.
If he is old enough to vote, drink, and serve in the military, I fail to see why you can't call him a man. Just because the US like to keep part of their population immature, I fail to see why it would be true for the rest of the world.
Is it me, or every time there is a cellphone article, there are a bunch of, presumably Americans, who complains about all the features that a modern cellphone has?
Living in Europe, I can't imagine having a cellphone that doesn't do sms. Why would I want to disturb a friend, to ask him if he's busy, when I can just SMS him, and he can get back to me whenever he can?
SMS let you store and recall a message (where we supposed to meet at 18:30 or 19:30?), you can take notes, "talk" to friends across town while you're in a noisy bar etc etc.
How does FreeBSD compare to OpenBSD? I realize that OpenBSD has a security focus, but I was thinking more from a user point of view. If a program runs on FreeBSD, does it automatically run on OpenBSD (without recompile) etc?
Does FreeBSD support more hardware? What's the difference?
The main problem with TiVo is getting people to try their product, I think.
Tivo just works for me. The Suggestions and taping by program name instead of time is brilliant. I bought a Nokia MediaCenter for my parents in Norway, because Tivo isn't available there, and it drives me nuts every time I have to use to, since I've used Tivo.
There are no Suggestions. You have to tape by time (meaning, if the program changes time by 5 minutes, you lose part of the programing, or if the programing skip a week, you're taping whatever).
If you read the article, all the people who says the Cable provided DVR is good enough, just haven't tested Tivo.

That't not what this securityfocus article says.
Speaking of which - are there any 'demoronizer' type utilities that can reasonably create ascii version of html email?

It's what I use with mutt

Metre is spelled metre in *every* language, except American English.
Not in Norwegian. Here it is spelled meter.

Seems like lots of European companies are moving over. Norwegian Postal Service is moving to Linux from Windows on the desktop.

Note that one-line bugfixes are exempted.
what innovation?
tabed browsing, opera.
gesturing, opera.
Depends on your definition of winning.

Why would it need his password to delete stuff in his home directory? Shouldn't stuff in his home directory be owned by him?
If you are planning for maildir, then I would recommend reiserfs, because reiserfs has been optimized for many, small files.

But does everybody need the same half as you?

the consumer is now totally GUI oriented, and only UNIX heads still remember what a command prompt is
And still Microsoft thought it necessary to create a much stronger commandline interface for Longhorn...

Check out gmane. Only way to deal with high-volume mailing lists.
I prefer mutt for my mail, but I've started to use gnus for my news.
Why would FSF help someone who didn't use the (L)GPL?
