Which means this really has nothing to do with Linux as Windows would have the exact same behavior.

So, I wouldn't go around expecting drinking coffee to make you immune.

That's good cause neither the researchers or the article said you would be.

On: February Deadline For Emergency Beacons Approaches

So if you're already spending 15000, 20000 or 50000 dollars why wouldn't you just top it off with a 1200 dollar beacon? At that point is it REALLY that much more?

I think you're having a reading comprehension problem. He was praising Bell Labs and bemoaning the fact that AT&T's innovativeness decreased substantially when they got rid of it.

Re:What are they doing that needs 2GB?

On: A Peek at AT&T's New Browser, Pogo

Remember people, this is BETA. In what way does that dismiss the fact that a browser shouldn't require 2 gigs of RAM and a 256 meg video card just to run?

When it comes out in a year, having 2GB will be like having 1GB today. So? That doesn't excuse the fact that for a browser those are fucking ridiculous minimum requirements.

Re:Biased review...

On: A Peek at AT&T's New Browser, Pogo

Complaining about a private beta not being fast or working in less than the minimum requirements isn't really fair. When it's a browser that requires a minimum of 2 gigs of RAM to run, I think it's quite a fair criticism. With the exception of Vista, even a whole operating system doesn't require a minimum of 2 gigs of RAM.

Except you clearly said that J2ME was a browser plugin.

The browser plugin (which they recently came out with a new version of, IIRC), J2ME.

I'm sorry, but if you want ideology, then it's Free Software you're after, not open source. But Sun is a patron of the FSF. I guess they want ideology.

Well if you're a stupid enough developer that someone can hack your site by purely using GET requests, than you probably deserved it.
