When it's a major security flaw? SQL injection is one of the most common attack vectors to compromise websites and servers. It seems perfectly valid that this security advisory is spread far and wide.
The drivers are tweaked versions of those officially released by ATI and nVidia, mainly using registry tweaks and offering an alternative installer. They are not custom drivers compiled from source code.
So your comparison between Unix and Linux is quite laughably wrong. The Omega drivers are just the official drivers packaged with registry tweaks and an alternate installer. Nothing more.
Irrelevant since neither Facebook, Apple, etc. are ISPs either.
They, like Compuserve, were nothing more than a massive bulletin board community which just happened to offer a portal to the internet in their latter years.
Yes, I know what they were and they were offering Internet connectivity long before their "latter years".
It started off with Usenet access, and I do remember the shitstorm when AOL opened those floodgates. What a sad time that was. That, IMHO, is where the old, free internet started to die.
And that is a completely different period to the one this article was talking about since the article specifically says "A little over a decade ago". Compuserve was offering Internet connectivity in 1989 and AOL in around 1991 so that's going on nearly 25 years ago. The author was not talking about the Usenet days.
As soon as the masses started flowing in, the corporations followed and started herding them into fenced in pastures ready to start plucking money out of their pockets.
Yes, and that was my point. The period he was trying to claim was full of open standards and free flow of information was nothing like that. The author is full of shit.
Freedom and open standards, sharing information for the greater good was the ethos.
No it wasn't. This is someone inventing a nostalgic version of the Internet that didn't exist. Prior to Facebook, etc. there was AOL and Compuserve which had their own "walled gardens" and gated versions of the Internet. Throughout the 90s it was a fight of both Netscape and Microsoft pushing proprietary HTML elements and the "Best viewed in Netscape" or "Best viewed in IE" nonsense.
And what does that have at all to do with porting and compiling your software for x86_64 machines? You really think people have to license the processor patents to do that?
In fact, even statutory rape laws only apply when on party is over 18 and the other under 15.
Actually for second-degree rape it's 18 or older. If they are under 15. And it's far from unheard of to see 14 year olds in high school as freshman and for a senior to be just over 18 before graduating.

The majority may not but it's not unheard of that developers slip up and make their secret keys public.
No, the flaw applies if you are not using authlogic.
This is why most Rails apps that are running Authlogic are not exploitable

Sure, but many performance-sensitive apps like games use the NDK and are compiled for ARM only.
What does the US have to do with Samsung making a carrier-exclusive phone in Japan?
Why is it wierd? Any decent company will offer academic compensation and pays for training. Maybe you work at a company run by assholes?
Repeat:
"To utter in dulication of another's utterance".
Which my post wasn't. Fail.
If they shut them down how could it be claimed to be continuous operation? You do know that continuous means "uninterrupted", right?

From here.

No, because state funded medicine means I have to pay for someone else's bad lifestyle choices, such as not exercising and eating crap.
You have to do so with private insurance as well. And? The difference being that single-payer systems are vastly less expensive.
Yes, I do. Monsanto is small potatoes in comparison to Big Pharma companies.
3) Spoofing an address is extremely easy.
Faster is good for plenty of applications of hashes such as checksums on data.
Hashes are used for far more than storing passwords securely.
How does publishing a list of spammers violate net neutrality laws?
And you're evidence that this is only because of a single spam email is what exactly?
People who need reliable, long-term storage care about HDDs. Just like how people still used tape drives even when CDs and DVDs came along.
Believe it or not, there was internet prior to AOL and Compuserve,
Yeah, and? That wasn't the period this guy was having nostalgia for.
and I don't recall Compuserver offering internet connectivity.
Than that's your own bad memory at work.
AOL wasn't an ISP as we think of them today.

Because it's the FSF and they don't endorse those distros.

Plenty of people on sex offender lists are neither rapists or molestors.

If you guys were a bit more sensible about free speech and stuff, you might still own India
Yes because India is a well-known bastion of free speech and press rights. *rolls eyes*
Because wealth wasn't concentrated into a small segment of the population during the medieval times. No, that didn't happen at all...
