All I can imagine are situations similar to setting an open access point to redirect everything to meatspin as a prank...or possibly something slightly more malicious
Courtrooms have been closed several times before to protect trade secrets. The Supreme Court case Ruckelshaus v. Monsanto opinion points out that once secrecy is lost, the property interest is forever destroyed and that it should be protected during the process. There are many other ways to preserve secrecy so closing the courtroom may not be necessary in all cases but that may be the only way to protect the trade secret in this situation.
It seems like 3/4th of the publicity Glenn Beck gets is from people calling him a raging idiot. Maybe if we just stop paying attention to him, and Jon Stewart stops making fun of him every single show, he might just go away when he realizes most people don't care about the crap he spews out of that hole he calls a mouth.
Depends on the distro and package maintainer but python is typically a dependency because it has support for python scripted plugins. The Arch package maintainer actually got rid of this dependency, which I noticed when one of my plugins stopped working after an update.
I have two younger siblings who are on ADHD medication. They are lively fun people to be around when they aren't on their medication (usually during the summers when they aren't at school because my parents believe the medication will magically bring about better grades). On the other hand, they are zombies and very different people when on the medication. It kills their appetite and they are much less outgoing, it is a very noticeable difference.
But then parents have to deal with them. Why let kids be kids when you can just have them pop a pill and turn into zombies? All the cool parents are doing it.
I was surprised that there are actually adult movie theaters equipped with things such as IMAX, I wouldn't think National Amusements would be jumping at the opportunity to throw porn up in their theaters.
"So long as your ISP claimed that it was trying to prevent copyright infringement or helping law enforcement, it could be exempted from the net neutrality principles."
So all they have to do is claim? "Preventing copyright infringement" seems to be high up on the list of motivators for anything the ISP's do anymore (and the Feds for that matter). This is so vague it seems like it could be stretched to essentially allow the them to do anything they wanted under the guise that it is "effectively reducing pirating."
So let's say, hypothetically, that I'm the grandson of Lee Harvey Oswald's landlord and I made claims that she once overheard Oswald conspiring with others, that I could get my report in a secret file too!?
At least you can metaphorically break into the linux kernel at all, even just for your own fork to mess around. I would literally have to break into somewhere to look at windows code
It really depends on where you will located the most, like 30 people before me have said. I know everyone likes to bash AT&T but in my situation its the only major carrier in the Dayton-Columbus-Cincinnati area that will get coverage around where I live. I went out four wheeling with a friend into the middle of nowhere and had 3G coverage west of Dayton close to the Indiana border on my iPhone. I also travel back and forth between Dayton and Columbus all the time and have mostly seamless coverage. Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint don't get coverage at all and I had horrible customer service issues and phone hardware problems several times with both Verizon and T-Mobile. I have a few friends who had Sprint who had to get boosters from the Sprint store in order to even use their phones at their house. Its all about location, just do your research and ask peoples opinions around where you will be located the most.
Go for Slitaz, it works well and its even smaller than DSL...and it keeps its kernel up to date. It works well on old hardware, had a friend who got it up and working on hardware similar to the OP.
CS&E is the only department that you will really get any exposure at all to Linux without doing your own exploring. The biggest gripe that I have about Linux support at OSU is that the help desk is completely worthless when it comes to Linux support. Although you can't really complain much when they do flat out say they don;t support Linux. I'm part of the Open Source club and one of the biggest questions that we get from people is in regards to wireless access in Linux, which one of our members ended up writing an article on our website for since we got so many questions concerning this. If you called the help desk they would give you a link to a page on OIT's website that just had a sample wpa_supplicant.conf and essentially just told you that you had to figure it out on your own. 98% of the members in our club are CS&E students, not that that is surprising in any way, but it just goes to show how little exposure there is in other departments. I am a business student and you won't see anything except Vista in their computer labs.
On another note, I have actually heard someone from the help desk chastise a guy for using Ubuntu on the ResNet claiming that he was creating a security issue. This was around the time they started requiring the use of the cisco clean access agent in order to get network access but just ended up cutting off half the residents from the internet in their dorms. That lasted about a whole month.
And if reference to your emacs comment....yes, they worship emacs. The only professor I have had that hasn't exclusively talked about emacs was for a COBOL class, but he only briefly talked about vi.

...but just hold on for two weeks and we'll make it alllll better

Trojan Hacker edition significantly lowers the chance of UTD's (usb transmitted diseases)
It's lunar cooling!!
there's always elinks!

Not that SheevaPlugs aren't cool but....slow news day?
I'm not even sure what to say about this statement

I'm sure this will only improve the iPhone's awesome battery life! (iphone owner)
Debian operates under the "It's done when it's done" philosphy. I usually just disregard deadlines when they mention them

a text editor with a web browser, email client, irc, calculator and tetris......oh wait
