And whatever he had to say on this would be
inaccurate at best. Trust me, TPTB want you
*off* of pots and onto VOIP. If you don't see
that, you have not been paying attention.
This is obviously paid for by MS.
The conclusion overall is that it doesn't
seem to be worth the effort to look for
the bugs (because they are not decreasing
overall as they are found), and that patches
are not being installed, and therefore
automatic patching is needed.
If you take MS software out of the picture, however,
the numbers would certainly be different.
Futhermore, the 'study' indicates that the
amount of time and money expended to find these bugs is not worth the effort. I find that
interesting in light of the fact that most
bugs are found by those not being paid to
look for them. Translation: MS does not
really find it cost effective for them (MS)
to spend the time and money looking for the
bugs, and they don't like the bad PR when
someone else finds the bugs, so therefore
it would be best if everyone just didn't
spend any effort on this problem, but to
just let MS deal with it on their own time
and schedule, and maybe provide you with
a fix via an automatic patcher.
The reason that the 1st Ammendment is the most attacked is because it is the most critical tool
that the citizens have to keep the government
under control.
That depends upon your definition of cyber terrorism. Some would define FUD as a form
of cyber terrorism, and we definitely know
that Darl (and others) generate a lot of FUD.
While at times, having only one memory seems
wonderful from a performance or code simplicity
standpoint, there are many fault-tolerant and/or recovery techniques
that can be utilized by having at least two
different memory technologies in a 'system'.
In other words, don't put all your eggs in one basket.
The GOP (Greedy Old Party) knows that MS has
the US between a rock and a hard place. MS
can't falter too quickly as it will place
a big burden on the economy.
So, the GOP has to continue to keep MS afloat
until the economy can adjust (and the rich GOP
dudes can cash out).
I realize you were trying to be funny, but it should
be noted that at some point,
many, many years ago, say 40, a hand-written
kernel was booted that was written in assembler.
Just having a very simple kernel that could
safely manage a filesystem that you could build
upon was all it took. Obviously, today, you
certainly could write a kernel much easier because
your tools are so much better. Linus had it
somewhere in between the real early kernels written in assember and the modern kernel of
today when he started creating Linux.
Anyway, you're exactly correct. The patent
system is being abused by large corporations
(not all) to stifle innovation. It's telling
that Microsoft argues that it needs to be able
to innovate, but in reality they really mean
that they want to control all innovation.
Entirely contradictory to a 'free market'.
Exactly why this pool makes sense. You want to
make it easy for everyone to have at least decent
accuracy but also to take the load off of the
tier1 servers. Once more machines join in, it
will make it much easier to tune to your requirements.
Your normally could find more info here, but
apparently there exists a discontinuity
in the time dimension.

I can't think of a better way to 'fix' the vote before the polls close.

Please, you know that the forecasts aren't that accurate. Give it a couple days.

Well, the words were distorted due to the noise. It would help if you cut back on the broccoli.

They can't have any links pointing outside of the site whereby the readers might actually learn something!
Groklaw will bust the conspiracy before that happens.

Isn't that why you got away from Windows in the first place?
The command line will never go away because of the simplicity and reliabilty.
Judge Wells has denied SCO's Expedited Motion for Protective Order, in which it asked that three depositions be postponed.
Here's a Groklaw link
No, now it belongs to me since I just 're-broadcast' what you said. Simple isn't it?
Now, don't quote *this* post, because it's mine, mine, mine, all mine!
Bwahahahahaha...

Will getting a tube job mean that you had a bit flip?

Feature race: Mach and Longhorn.
Done a ./configure lately?
And some people would argue that people that propose that argument are indicating that they can't manage their files good enough.

When you start to get desperate, and need a product put together in a hurry, well, you get less quality.

Home voting? Not if you can lose your anonymity due to ipaddress tracking. If the software wants to 'call home' with your choices, forget it.
