Actually, that is one advantage to a "cloud" (what would be a better term?) OS: security is handled by people that theoretically know what they are doing, rather than hundreds/thousands that definitely don't.
Where'd you get one of those? Be careful with it; I hear they are very fragile (and if carefully protected from sunlight, it may eventually become one of us).
If something denser, like a star were to fall in, I doubt that the radiation pressure would push it away.
True, but that star falling in would increase the output of radiation (how permanent would that increase be?), and make a little bit harder for the next one to fall in. Eventually even the stars would be pushed away, and you'd have to step up to feeding it neutron stars (and eventually, other black holes). At least that's how I understand it.
Another alternative: Falcon 9 Heavy This is being deliberately built with the goal in mind to become man-rated eventually, and will be making trips to the ISS on unmanned resupply missions. The first flight of this rocket (not the heavy variant but at least the Falcon 9) is going to be later on this year. The manned version will be using a completely new spacecraft as well, which SpaceX is calling the Dragon.
But will it get us to the moon? That is the whole point of Ares.
Ubuntu doesn't need to be infinitely customizable. We have Gentoo for that. Anyways, it's not like you can't put together your own distro if you care enough.
You can slipstream in service packs and hotfixes, set all those little options you always change, chose not to install certain components (even Luna), set your CD-key...

Assisting web 2.0 is almost as heinous of a crime as assisting the MAFIAA.

Not that I'd ever trust it.

Windows 7 is losing core applications and replacing them with an installer to download them...
Coming in Windows 8: repos.
No, but more importantly:
It was a non-violent crime

And you are an idiot with a two digit number.
He paid for it
Apologies to mfh.

I first read that as "LSD rockets have sharper colors"

Assuming it is buggy enough, it could serve as an automated summary-generator for slashdot.

So does McCain. He dictates emails and his wife types them. Much more accurate than any software-based voice recognition I know of.
How is the Shuttle insufficient for this?
Cargo bay too small?
Payload too heavy?
Shuttles will be canceled too soon?
Shuttle doesn't go high enough?
Why is the parent modded funny?
I was probably modded funny because someone thought I was making a Jupiter > Saturn joke.
why does parent want to see a rocket built that NASA rates as not worth the effort
I suspect bias is the reason for their opinion. They have about as much incentive to seriously consider Jupiter as MS has to seriously consider *nix.
..or else you'll be seeing the Chinese on the moon first...
Ahem

I need to go to bed. Just one more link...
The Saturn V is (was) built from what is now antiquated technology. I'd rather see then implement Jupiter.
I doubt OOo3 was downloaded by the majority of Windows users.
Apparently, you meant to say "say".

I'd love a copy of XP that installed as easily as hitting the "install" button.

From the article:
Yes.
And it encourages those that don't like it to explore the customization features.
If we truly only wanted to kill brown people, Iraq would be glowing a pale shade of green by now.
