sixxs dont require a linkedin account (or something changed since i created mine and several friends accounts)
all you need is to say you want to test ipv6 on your home computer (or home network) and put your real info (name, email, etc)... that isnt much different from registering on any website. Requiring real info is normal, as you will access the internet with their connections, its normal they want real info to contact you or to redirect any police request if you want to use their network for illegal activities
Ok, right, you can still use coal... but add the post-combustion treatment to reduce pollution and ways to grab the CO2 (if everything else fails, plant enough trees)
coal is cheap because there is no output treatment as it should, they just vent it to the atmosphere and is someones else problem. It shouldn't! they must take care of their pollution treatment. that way, the coal isnt that cheap (so bigger change for the other alternatives) and coal can finally became a little cleaner and not one of the worst.
sandboxing is just another layer of security, it isnt a silver bullet solution... in fact many times (like in chrome) is used as a excuse to not proper check things and do a more careless development (from the security point of view). all is well until someone finds a way to break out the sandbox (just look at the recent java security problems) and then you can use one of the many holes to hop jump the sandbox and reach the OS. Firefox mostly dont have sandbox, but have many other proper security checks that other lack, and its secure because of then. Of course sandbox is yet another layer that should exist and they are slowly sandboxing key areas. Its harder because they want to support various OS at the same level where chrome have a full sandbox in windows but a lot weaker one in linux (see https://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxSandboxing and https://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxSUIDSandbox... things might be better when seccomp is enabled by default in chrome)
So yes, sandbox is good, but should not be trusted as the main security barrier in one application, other checks are always needed.
Not all African countries have food problems... not all have wars... not all have democratic problems... and finally, malaria isnt restricted to Africa, it exits in south and central america and asia as you can see here. And of course, there are countries where malaria is a higher danger than others.
Reducing the death rate usually increase the stability of the regions in middle term (people have more to lose) and in a long term, birth rate is also decreased. Europe and North America showed this and right now, Asia is already in that way.
Either way, this will help all and if sucess, will plug a huge unsolved problem (mostly because first world countries have no malaria, so almost no research is committed to find a cure for it)
Pauses/lockups for a few seconds are DNS problems...
the dns resolver blocks the GUI and there is one open bug for that and its being worked on to remove this old limitation.
the most common way to show up the bug is using a proxy.pac (or similar) file where it needs to resolve a site (or a rDNS) to find what proxy should use. This causes frequent lockups when the remote dns is slow or not operational. in normal browsing and some plugins, might also show up this, when trying to use a slow DNS server (or slow NS for that domain)
please search the bugzilla for the dns resolve problems if you want to track the issue. but again, this is one old bug and its finally being worked on
US oil is shit... it can still have many uses, like making roads, but the high quality oil is in the middle east. If you want a efficient oil refinery, you will use better oil.
The problem is that in the view of FSF (and many, many users in the last few years) if that ubuntu doesnt care about its users and is removing user freedom. They just want to grab windows users, no matter what.
Ubuntu trusting Microsoft and the OEM instead of trusting the FSF might give enough excuse for the former saying that their solutions is good enough, that FSF is crazy and so, affecting the freedom of all users. That is why FSF is objecting, ubuntu decision might not affect just the ubuntu users.
but if you open the/boot/grub/grub.cfg (the new grub2 config file) you see:
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE # # It is automatically generated by grub-mkconfig using templates # from/etc/grub.d and settings from/etc/default/grub
So its documented... you need to play with the/etc/grub.d/* files and for more simple options, the/etc/default/grub (in debian at least) and run the grub-mkconfig.
Sadly people often dont look at the text, but dont really read it;)
I think the problem with grub2 is that it have too much silent automatic discovery and all that looks like "magic". A more verbose building of the config would help people understand what is happening what might need to change.
gee... edit/create a/etc/grub.d/??-custom is not much hard than to edit the old/boot/grub/menu.cfg... you just need to run the update-grub2 next and confirm if everything is OK....
GPL is there to allow the final user to do whatever he want with his hardware.
A developer is not the final users, if he wants to use GPL code, he must give the same rights he received to everyone. GPL2 had some holes that allowed some developers/builders to take the work of others and not giving back what they should. GPL3 was made to fix that holes... yep, some people that were abusing the GPLv2 holes didnt like it, but bad luck, its not their code.
If you don't like that license, don't use programs with it and start over with your preferred license. you are not important, the final users are!
So here is the global view: GPL is to give ALL power to the final users Closed source gives all the power to the product owners/builders... the user loses freedom BSD/MIT gives all the power to the developer and hope that product owners/builders are nice to not take the user freedom...
<sarcasm>everyone knows that companies are always nice to the users!!</sarcasm>
Of course everything is measurable, i'm not saying that is impossible... the issue here is if that is precise enough to determine what are you watching on the TV via a smart meter with wireless reading.
one thing is to measure things in a lab with special equipment and controlled environment, other is to use a sampling reader, with many random equipment and hundred of channels to compare to.
but hey, if your world is black and white, great, most of us live on a world with many levels of grey
not the new LED ones, that already have a very high contract and where LCD power is already low enough to be hard to detect fluctuation over the reading noise
older ones that used that "optimization" might be detected, but even that, only a few models used that, so its too much guessing
LCD TVs dont have mesurable power fluctuations due the changing colors/brightness, only CRT have it (dont know about plasma ones). dont forget that you have many measurement noise and small fluctuations, the more electronic you have, the higher the noise.
but as i have one current-cost meter i can map my energy usage all minutes/hours/days/weeks/months its very interesting to see the many power usage changes and map then to various actions... several of then i can now easily guess what i was doing at that time.
You can copy and use it, as long you allow other to do the same... its a special case of copyright, that instead of removing right give then back. This special case is usually named copyleft

for those in stuck in the last decade, 7z and xz are the most powerful (common) compressions today.
if you need compression ratio, use then, if you need compatibility, use the plain old .zip (and tar.gz)

Just use firefox or chrome in XP, problem solved
3- Try to limit the Desura success with all those indie games and alpha-funding projects. It it grows too much, it might eat some of the steam market
for me Desura already own my loyalty, they build the linux support first and have many fun games and have a open source client...
aahhh!!, what competition can do! everyone wins!! :)

+1 totally right

but hey, you can always use lilo
exactly, the "third party" above that joins A and B must obey to the license. If they arent compatible, they can not join the codes.
Being GPL doesnt mean that you can abuse it to whatever you want, you must always give back the same freedom you receive.
You don't understand GPL.
