You're right, it's broken. Probably because it uses MacOSX.
Btw that flaw was just great... I was reading the new online on my iPhone and some site had an article "flaw in iPhone/iPad PDF", so I read it, and they directly linked a "website that was taking advantage of that flaw for malicious purposes", i.e. jailbreakme.com... I went right away and got my iPhone jailbroken in 2 clicks.
BEST. ARTICLE. EVER.
I don't really call it. I use it. But just in case:

I think the whole driving/road system is based on trust and it works quite well. It's potentially a very dangerous environment where the penalties for being reckless are not as bad as the potential damage you can cause. And yet it somehow works.
Btw I have to agree with one of the posts above, having your password be very offensive usually prevents you from sharing it at all. I do have such a password somewhere, and was horrified when a friend of mine cracked it.
By the way, RWB/RSF is a French NGO to begin with.
Yeah, nice try. RWB is a US neocon propaganda front, and If you had read the references you would have seen this:
After years of trying to hide it, Robert Menard, Paris-based Secretary-General of Reporters Sans Frontieres or RWB
How does that disprove what I said? Last time I checked, Paris was in France.
confessed that the RWB budget was primarily funded by “US organizations strictly linked to US foreign policy.” [6] Those US organizations behind RWB include the Open Society Foundation of billionaire speculator George Soros, the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and the US Congress’ National Endowment for Democracy (NED). Also included is the Center for Free Cuba, whose trustee, Otto Reich, was forced to resign from the George W. Bush administration after exposure of his role in a CIA-backed coup attempt against Venezuela’s democratically elected president, Hugo Chavez. [7]
As one researcher found after months of trying to get a reply from NED about their funding of Reporters Without Borders, which included a flat denial from RSF executive director Lucie Morillon, the NED revealed that Reporters Without Borders received grants over at least three years from the International Republican Institute. The IRI is one of four subsidiaries of NED. [8]
The NED, as I detail in my book, Full Spectrum Dominance:Totalitarian Democracy in the New World Order, was created by the US Congress during the Reagan administration on the initiative of then-CIA Director Bill Casey to replace the CIA's civil society covert action programs, which had been exposed by the Church committee in the mid-1970s. As Allen Weinstein, the man who drafted the legislation creating the NED admitted years later, “A lot of what we do today was done covertly 25 years ago by the CIA.” [9]
So, stooge of the US neocon right, to be more specific.
Some of those organizations are left leaning, some are right leaning. And I wouldn't say Soros is a neocon at all.
RSF/RWB opposes Cuba's (and China's, Iran's,...) attitudes towards reporters (i.e. jailing, torturing, murdering). If that's a political agenda, if that's a bad thing, if that makes you a stooge of the US gov, then I'm afraid I'm a stooge too.

Now I agree that RSF's secretary general is not the most well-behaved and smartest person. But he is right most of the time.

Not everyone is ready to go through complex accounting files, nor has the skills to actually do it. One needs to setup proper incentives is this is to work. In an OECD country (not sure which one), a member of a cartel who goes clean with regulators will see its sentence waived as it helps bust out other cartel members. It's very efficient and there have been successful outings in the past.
To Mrs Shapiro: Send me a couple grand, accounting PDFs and I'll read through them! Otherwise, no thanks, I'm busy.

Not everyone has the skills to check complex accounting files. I guess incentives need to be setup here. In at least one big developed country (is it the US or Japan? I can't remember) a member of a cartel has an incentive to speak up and will see its sentence reduced as it helped bust out other members. It's worked in the past (and for a big cartel). Such incentives are the only way to guarantee that people will actually do the job and help.

Who said military? This is the Department of State giving a link to a Department of Labor online database. And showing job outlooks (i.e. demand) (FYI H1B visas are only granted in certain categories of high skilled workers as the DoL deems fit and according to the country's needs). Some Indians from India may not speak English to your liking, but you've proved you can't read it that well.
The rest of your post is neither polite nor well argued so I won't bother.
The "standard" flu virus is known to be different every year already. The reason why vaccines work is that it doesn't change too much. The 2009 H1N1 must have mutated at a whole other level to be that resistant.

Is it about understanding Open Source? Or giving credit where credit is due?
I'm not saying the guys at Ubuntu just sit there and do nothing, but Debian deserves way more than being called "the distro Ubuntu is based on".
I was coming from Slackware and apt-get seemed magical. Never left the boat since.
Long life to Debian!
Totally agree
If you're too big for a Mini you buy an Escalade. Same goes for airplane seats.

So?! every reporter outside any of these regimes condemns them. It is what RWB do to set themselves apart that makes them very special. Take their reporting on Georgia (country) leading up to the elections, largely acknowledged now to be US orchestrated coup, followed up with a neocon war. Oh, and now Georgia is a US puppet state, the Pipelines from Georgia to Afghanistan can't be privatized quick enough - bringing the plan together to profit from this dirty war long after it is over.
Yes, RWB is one of the worst pro war propaganda fronts out there - they are just supposed to be clandestine about it.
The issue with Georgia is more complex than that. I suggest you read more about the events that led to the war in the Summer 2008.
It would surprise me if they didn't.
For all its imperfections, the US gov still upholds free speech more than others.

At least it seems Julian Assange heard previous criticism.

By revealing strategic/tactical information?
By naming afghan civilians who cooperate with NATO troops?
Abuses need to be reported. Fine. Just outing information for the sole purpose of outing information is plain stupid.
