Shared Source, Accessible Source, Viewable Source, mean the source can be viewed. Using Open Source in this fashion is incorrect and is an unethical PR word-play ploy by a proprietary company trying to cash in on what Open Source actually is.
Open source is used to imply that it is an open (freedom based) license that allows you to view, change, compile, install the software as you need.
"Free Software" is used to imply no cost software, but not necessarily open source (ala SpiceWorks IT software, its "Free" but not "Open").
I can buy a Wii and install whatever I want on it if I can figure out how it works without agreeing to any software 'license' they attempt to tack on to it (or bypass the software portion entirely).
Your examples are red herring bullshit. My wife is part Mexican, is a natural born US Citizen, but looks Mexican. I'm sorry that you're scared of the illegals, but this law gives the AZ police carte blanche to stop and even arrest my wife if they think she is an illegal immigrant, if she happens to not have her ID with her.
But hey, I'm sure the new law doesn't affect you or your family in any way, so have a nice day.
Actually your remarks seep cognitive dissonance. The current AZ law is based on xenophobia. If you feel its not, please explain. Why or how are undocumented immigrants causing an issue for your day to day life (and anyone you know). Are you in the construction business? farming? landscaping? mexican restauranting? meat packing? Are you just afraid of the gangbangers ala Latin Kings, MS-1234567, etc? What is it that has you kids so afraid of the hard working sob that speaks better spanish than english? Do you think they are the cause of some issue with your health care provider?
Fuck you pal. My wife is part Mexican (but US born), and definitely looks Mexican, and we plan on visiting friends in Phoenix Arizona later this year. If she leaves her purse at home while we go out to eat dinner, then we get stopped on the way back, she can be detained and 'arrested' on suspicion of being an illegal immigrant. And she is an natural born citizen of the United States of America. Welcome to the reality of police states. I can't wait.
Related portions of the actual law, in case you didn't actually read it:
"Lawful contact" can be 'hi, how are you today?' or 'welcome to the police checkpoint'
B. FOR ANY LAWFUL CONTACT MADE BY A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL OR AGENCY OF THIS STATE OR A COUNTY, CITY, TOWN OR OTHER POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THIS STATE WHERE REASONABLE SUSPICION EXISTS THAT THE PERSON IS AN ALIEN WHO IS UNLAWFULLY PRESENT IN THE UNITED STATES, A REASONABLE ATTEMPT SHALL BE MADE, WHEN PRACTICABLE, TO DETERMINE THE IMMIGRATION STATUS OF THE PERSON. THE PERSON'S IMMIGRATION STATUS SHALL BE VERIFIED WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PURSUANT TO 8 UNITED STATES CODE SECTION 1373(c).
This is a doozy, an illegal immigrant can be removable form the United States just based on being an illegal immigrant, this allows them to use probable cause suspicion to arrest just about anyone they want. 'Oh it was 2am and we coudln't get confirmation that this guy was actually a US citizen'
E. A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, WITHOUT A WARRANT, MAY ARREST A PERSON IF THE OFFICER HAS PROBABLE CAUSE TO BELIEVE THAT THE PERSON HAS COMMITTED ANY PUBLIC OFFENSE THAT MAKES THE PERSON REMOVABLE FROM THE UNITED STATES.
And here's the coup de grace, you are commiting a specific state crime by being an illegal immigrant on public OR private land in Arizona, which provides probable cause for your arrest, which will lead to arrests of people who just happen to not have their identification:
A. IN ADDITION TO ANY VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW, A PERSON IS GUILTY OF TRESPASSING IF THE PERSON IS BOTH: 1. PRESENT ON ANY PUBLIC OR PRIVATE LAND IN THIS STATE. 2. IN VIOLATION OF 8 UNITED STATES CODE SECTION 1304(E) OR 1306(A).
8US Code Section 1304(e)"
Personal possession of registration or receipt card; penalties
Every alien, eighteen years of age and over, shall at all times
carry with him and have in his personal possession any certificate
of alien registration or alien registration receipt card issued to
him pursuant to subsection (d) of this section. Any alien who fails
to comply with the provisions of this subsection shall be guilty of
a misdemeanor and shall upon conviction for each offense be fined
not to exceed $100 or be imprisoned not more than thirty days, or
both.
Ergo, if the officer thinks my wife is an illegal immigrant, asks her to produce proof of citizenship and she doesn't have identification, he can arrest her for trespassing. Super.
The real truth is, its fear and cowardice that are leading us down the police state road we are on, man the fuck up and don't be scared. And stay the fuck off my lawn, damn kids.
Here's to your acceptance and apathy towards a permanent police state. Cheers.
Advertising executives are professional circle jerk bullshitters, nothing more. They pretend to ascertain the play-off but have very little comprehension of reality. Buzzwords kids, buzzwords.
If you are reliant on your ad impressions to support your site, perhaps you should rethink your business model. If you look at ad impressions as a serious source of income, perhaps you should rethink your business model. If you think your 'content' is really worth stable income from ad impressions, perhaps you should rethink your business model.
Whats I'm saying is, perhaps you should rethink your business model.
I'm slowly moving everything to pfSense, tired of dealing with shit firewalls or over-the-top bullshit to configure simple rules on a firewall (Sonicwall, Cisco, im looking at you and your goddamn requirement for Java to use the web interface on a PIX if the client doesn't have a competent onsite tech that can handle ssh/console commands safely).
Checkpoint wasn't too terrible but its GUI had a certain learning curve.
I am, of course, looking at it from a small business support standpoint. Tell me if I'm off base (not that I really mind the job security of confusing firewall configurations for clients).

Ok, the Senior Sys Admin plans to quit without warning anyone, has a majority of his 'documentation' in his email folders, deletes all of his email months prior to quitting. Ask Google (nicely) to restore the email to that account on your Google Apps Premier business account, get thrown into lawyer land requiring legal documents to get to their backups of your own data, which may or may not exist (they exist but Google didn't obviously build the proper infrastructure to make it a simple process).
In a normal situation, you'd just pop in a few tapes or mount a few backup locations and run restores of the mail boxes. In this case, you are at their mercy, and have to jump through hoops over the course of months for access to stuff you need NOW.
Doesn't market squarely to business, then why the hell do they sell Xserves with dual quad core xeons, 24GB ram, 3TB w/on board RAID, FC cards, XSAN (!) software, even reselling Promise vTrak raid storage, and Tandberg 80-tape storage libraries on the Apple store website. A SAN deployment among XServes and Mac Pros is not exactly a 'very small business' kind of situation. They took some big steps but it feels like Apple is dropping the ball on the business side beyond individual sales.
I went from the Windows world of all 'enterprisey' all the time to the Apple world of 'yeah it SHOULD work in your enterprisey solution unless you want reliable Active Directory/Open Directory integration without jumping through many hoops and crossing your fingers'
And don't get me started on the RAGE that occurred when I realized this spanking new MacBook Pro uses the magsafe connector and its patented with no third party options and NO DOCKING STATION. I'm used to having options, now I'm stuck with a very linear choice.
I'm just having one of those weeks. Apple needs to get it together and go full speed ahead on business oriented software systems, I'm running headlong into this in a business that is decidedly Mac but wants to expand greatly (and stay Mac). The OS X Server tools feel unpolished and/or unresponsive at times, and the command line support and documentation is wholly inadequate.
I guess I'm just turning into an old bastard IT Admin. Damn kids better stay off my lawn.
You obviously never watched the 2girls1c video. Until you do, you don't really know what it means to have the internet steal a little piece of your soul.
Warhammer 40k was WAYYY more awesome anyway. Space Hulk is still one of my favorite 'unexpectedly awesome' video games ever.
For the record, I was a huge fan of the original Warcraft (and Warcraft 2) and did in fact associate it with Warhammer from the outset. An awesome version of warhammer without being trapped in turn based combat.
I guess Glen Beck started posting to slashdot now. Although I'm suspicious that the first sentence only uses an ! and not all caps, must have an intern typing for him.

Actually, its 'undocumented' immigrant, the illegal immigrant moniker just sounds catchy. and works better with the 'dey tuk er jebs' crowd.
