* I think it was a mistake for Linus to ignore the FSF's recommendation that the copyrights be centralized.. hopefully SCO won't request that all the copyright holders be tracked down..!!
Why? Linus can just tell them to go to hell. SCO can't file actions on behalf of other companies.
Why don't you place the blame where it belongs, with shitty admins who don't patch their systems? If you never patch that little Linux box you're using, you'll have the same problems. I don't see you jackasses yelling about the insecurity of Linux every time a patch comes out for it.
No, I was making a specific observation about Jewish people, who have been subject to consistent death and/or persecution for the past 4000 years. Pretty much every other religion has had periods where they have been in power, and thus not been the subject of persecution.
I think the main reason you hear so much complaining is that people have been killing and/or persecuting Jews for the past 4000 years. I know I'd get kind of tired of it after that period of time.
I'd rather see a list compiled of how much shitty admins have cost the world by failing to install a patch that has been around since JUNE.
How's about you go install a Linux system, and NEVER patch it, and see how long it is before it get's hacked? Let's put the credit here where it's due, on people that are just too fucking lazy to check out windows update every once in a while.
It doesn't broadcast your exact position, dumbass, the system isn't capable of that. All they can do is say you're within the operable range of x transmitter. In order to try to find you, they'd have to try to use other transmitters in the area to try to locate your signal as well, and see if they can triangulate your location.
That's the main difference. I admin a Windows environment too, but I have more need to ssh or telnet in to routers and such to make sure they're working. My Windows environment has been pretty damn stable.
With VPN and so many computers available at cafes, libraries, etc... I think real remote admining via portable devices is just for the 'way I'm cool' factor.
Or for those of us that are on call 24x7 and want to be able to fix problems without having to always lug a laptop around.
Ahh, I see someone else has been doing a little research too.
It appears to me that either that deal fell through, or someone re-formed the company. They're still listed as Nasdaq ITRU, but be damned if I can get any stock information on that,.... Hmm, something on Lycos finance says that they stopped trading publicly on or around Jan 7. Perhaps they did get bought, and they're trying to present themselves as a "little company being pushed around by a big, bad bully"?
No, you're talking about the difference between locking the door, and leaving the door open, with a sign saying "my door is OPEN". If you aren't encrypting traffic, or at least checking "do not broadcast SSID", you ARE advertising yourself as a public hotspot. If I can turn on my laptop, and get connected to your wireless network without having to do ANYTHING, how much more public does it have to be?
Never mind that Al Gore made sure that the funding happened to make the Internet possible. The Clinton administration was the most tech-savvy administration in quite a whiled. We took a huge step back with GW.
Threat of lawsuits prevents them. You go indie, tell the RIAA that they can shove the license up their asses, and they sue you, stating that you were playing RIAA music and violating copyright. Now YOU get to prove that you didn't.
Yes, but regardless of what the RIAA would like you to believe, this is NOT theft. Theft involves the taking of a physical object from another, thus depriving them of using that object. Stealing a car, money, a CD, is theft.
This is copyright infringement. Copyright law states that your are not allowed to redistribute copies of something without the express permission of the copyright holder.
They're fond of using "theft" and "piracy" because they make better copy than "copyright infringement". That doesn't make it the correct term. I'd love to see them try to sue me or have me arrested for "theft", it would get thrown right out of court.
Strange, I never had that problem. I wasn't really using it for macros, it was more hotkeying weapon selection to certain buttons, and using the movement instead of the keyboard. Seemed to work pretty well for that stuff.
Slashdot Mirror
Google, at least, does a much better job separating the sponsored links from the results
And they only started doing this under pressure from people who figured out what was going on. Google is a souless company, just like all the others.
Free as in coffee.

Ah, a anti-ms troll. Just can't resist.

That's okay, his wife will happily kick everyone's ass for him.
Nope, the last one was in 1977. The one BEFORE that was 1965.
Hey, according to SCO, making that copy is against the law!
I think you could figure out that it wouldn't work well for quadriplegics by the controls.
I didn't have to on any of my boxes. In fact, the only two I've had problems with are the two that didn't get SP4 installed. Of course, YMMV.
Yes, it was. They rolled it in to service pack 4. Before that, it was available as a hotfix.

Well, the Incas and/or Aztecs used something similar for electroplating. Maybe they used it for the same thing?

I still have that game.

It doesn't work that way. You as a private entity are not protected by "common carrier".
