Natural languages have a very hard time describing logic, you need to create a new one to be able to write about logic. Even people who rely heavily on natural languages to communicate in their work, for example a politician, they just twist things around never giving you any thing logical.
So don't translate from natural languages, it can't be done.
If you just know "everything" about nanotech, or everything about shakespear you won't know much. But if you, as you say, also know physics, math and chemistry then sure you will be usefull. There are people who know more than just everything about Shakespeare, they might know linguistics, drama, phsycology and perhaps everything about all pop lit authors today.
No I'm very right, the Pro Piracy movement is a very small movement, they have managed to get people to listen to them in the youth organisations of the big parties here in Sweden. But as to being a big political force it's just laughable. Further, I state that Pirat Partiet themselves have no chance of getting any political representation in Europe or in Sweden.
If they do get elected I will print this message and eat it.
You can try to prevent all the attack vectors, but it has nothing to do with "the OS" or "the user", but it's more todays design of security. You can't guard yourself against malware in anyway, the only way to make it harder is not using a computer like normal people do, not allowing the normal vectors to be exploitable.
But if everyone used the computer this way, the attackers would just adapt.
The problem is homogenity, there is no one solution.
I actually came back to the office one day finding 400 pages of porn printed in color on our office printer. Apparently it was open for everyone on the net to use as a print server.
Actually keys aren't stored on the TPM, they are stored encrypted on your hardrive and you load the keys into the chip which then decrypts the keys with the help of a private key stored on the chip. But the decrypted keys never leave the chip.
Yeah, that's how the TPMs work that you can (could?) find in a lot of biz laptops. Great for certifying connections being made from a specific laptop, or for the paranoid being made while that laptop is running.

There are reasons to call packages horrible, ignorance from users, NIH feelings from users and bad integration of developers. What I saw in 2005-6 was that the packages of Gentoo were lower quality than the ones in Debian. I think this was because the Debian way is to include everything, and that is hard to do good which means they have to work more on the packages. The Gentoo way seemed to be about adding as many use flags as possible, I think this leads to packages that hasn't been tested with all features/permutations.
I think the Gentoo model is very good, I don't believe in Source packages but I think it's an important option to have. As a free software OS the most important part isn't the binary but the source, and this is something I think Red Hat Enterprise Linux should learn (getting patches from them is very hard, and usually it's just a matter of USE flags), but combining testing and freedom to tinker is probably never going to work.

For what it is worth, portage (and the two portage replacements, pauldis and pkgcore) are quite frankly hands down the best package managers out there, and they handle pre-compiled binary packages just as well.
The problem is that in my view gentoo is often the worst distribution out there, with very low quality packages. Maybe the package manager is great, but it's not really about technical excenlece it's about how easy it is to use. Sadly most things become easy to use after training, and people don't want to train more than once, that's why people are still in Debian.
But if you have any good highlights of why portage is so much better then please tell me, the one thing I love about debian is this:
apt-get sources xbattle apt-get build-dep xbattle # then build manually
I'm sure there is something similar in portage.

Considering Peter Jacksons lawsuit against New Line I'm inclined to believe in you. I'm not sure what an indie film is now days, what wins at Sundance (swedish) is really just good pictures not made by Hollywood.
there is some thing similar at http://www.powerset.com/ they are still in Beta though, and it's not working that great. We will never get perfect matches from computers, but the question is if semantics will ever be better than just keywords.
As long as they are DRM free I can buy them! It's such a bitch to use clit everytime I buy and ebook. Do you guys know if there is a cracker for Mobipocket and PDF as well? The problem with Lit is that you have to have Windows to download books, which I don't have..:-)

Yeah that's wonderfull, lets all pay for the privilege to let someone else run my code

Are you saying one nerd is better than another?
Well I can't respond to that.. :-( makes me sad, it's even impossible to know wether you are the same person.

That's a wonderful headline. :-)
You can build it on top of openstreetmap.org, and I'm pretty sure it's going to be as illegal as publishing bomb making literature. (US Army)
In Sweden it's not very usual that you get fined big amounts, so we are not talking about millions euros in fines.
none needed, they have no political support in Europe. They talk a lot though, but that doesn't mean that the common man over 25 knows what it is.

LWN has discussion on this, and there is a nice video presentation of LLVM 2.0 as well. Cool thing, but as they say it isn't really about replacing GCC.

Haven't read it but $6 is less than I pay for public transport to visit my mom. It can't be that bad.
There are other people who release ebooks: Sevens suns is available as an ebbok..
