Microsoft needs to focus on security patches. It's too late for them to focus on security. That horse is already out of the barn, across the pasture, died of old age, and beaten daily by CmdrTaco.
This will probably get modded down as flamebait, but that's not the way it is.
I hope that they make an example of Sklyarov. It is time for the pendulum to swing the other way. For the last 2 years, Internet users have run roughshod over the rights of IP owners -- be it record labels, publishers, what have you.
This isn't what the promise of the Internet was all about. Time to put an end to it, and it starts here.
I've read an awful lot of arguments here of *why* they can usurp the trademark, but not many addressing the original poster's point: should they...
would it really matter to any of us if they call it openSquash instead of openSSH? I don't think so.
Does it matter to the guy running SSH? yes, certainly.
So why persist? Suddenly the guy who wrote SSH is no longer an open-source-brethren, he is now one of *those* commercial guys. Oh the heathen. Screw him to the wall.
I'm not so proud of the open source mentality suddenly.
due to concerns with the FOIA? NASA, the free ranging, "all in the interest of exploration" better-cheaper-faster-desperately-in-need-of-good- PR agency?
Yet another colossal NASA blunder. Stop worrying about how to prevent the public from seeing your mistakes -- worry more about preventing them in the first place.
BugTraq shouldn't be publishing Microsoft documents verbatim (if Microsoft doesn't want them to). BugTraq should summarize, in their own words, and post a link to the Microsoft article. It's all about respecting the wishes of the copyright holder. It's the same story as Napster.
that the name of a college be spelled correctly? Jesus.
Slashdot - "And the Nobelle prize is awardid to...", "The thery of relativty clearly staites that..."
It seems that slashdot editors wear this as some sort of badge ("we won't conform", "content instead of grammar/spelling") but, alas, this really makes slashdot look like a bunch of asses in the final analysis.
why is Slashdot posting this obvious gibberish? Of course they can't map the entire fucking internet. So why is it posted here? Just so we can refute it??
I guess you're right. We should just give up; the criminals have won. We'll never be able to beat them, so we should stop trying.
Sheese. The idea is to take forgery out of the range of possibility for your average crook. Some will beat it, yes. But at a cost and level of difficulty far beyond your average crackhead's capabilities.
we need this like we need a hole in the head. Yet another camp of developers who can't/haven't learned to play well with others. "I'm taking my marbles and going home, bwaaahhh." Open source seems to be a great forum for encouraging childish behavior.
Don't flatter yourself. Intel, in no uncertain terms, does NOT consider, nor should it consider, Crusoe to be a threat.
Silicon vs. vaporware. OK, some Transmeta hardware has been produced, but not in large volume, not dealing w/tiny profit margins, capacity issues, fab yields, etc.
so exactly what are we supposed to discuss? Yes, there are tariffs, taxes, etc. No we can't do anything about them, short of convincing those in power to reduce/eliminate them.
Think about that next time you get worked up
about the government censoring the amount of blood in a game. Seems
kinda insignificant relative to some places.
So, you're saying we shouldn't get worked up about government censorship, because our government's censorship is "insignificant" relative to other countries?? I am staggered.
You are either grammatically challenged, or mentally challenged. The whole point of fighting censorship is that censorship starts slowly (on "insignificant" things) but is unstoppable once it gets a foothold.

Who is Ann? You lost me.
I'd stick with Ethernet. It's widely deployed, and compatible with most modern PCs. Neurons are hard to come by, too.
$60 billion US.
Every post of yours is just that much more a cry for help. Laughable.

controversial? huh? There's nothing controversial about IPv6, it just takes time and money for all the major IPv4 hardware to get upgraded.
at the firewall. Most people will conform when they find their internet access has been cut off for coloring outside the lines.

In other words, "I'm pretty sure I don't have the balls to make any waves."
and what exactly is a domend screen? You guys need a spellchecker.

Timothy, your blatent attempt to tie this rehashed story to Linux is laughable. You need to work on your segues.

Transmeta is a science project, not a market reality. No mention of high volume production, razor thin profit margins, intense market competition.
