Not at all. The fact she had a yahoo account was already made public what, a week ago? That's more than enough time to have an aid make a thorough scrubbing of her yahoo account and then leave it open for someone to "hack" into using a conveniently easy-to-guess password retrieval question.
This helps her with regards to her corruptions trials ("but there were no inappropriate emails, which was proven during the yahoo mail break in").
This helps McCain against Obama (the right-wing nutjobs are already painting this as left-wing hacktivism, instead of the skiddie crap we all know it to be).
She couldn't have had this turn out better for her if she had tried.
Um...HELLO? Your link backs up what the OP said. It's not FreeBSD.
Kernel
Darwin is built around XNU, a hybrid kernel that combines the Mach 3 microkernel, various elements of BSD (including the process model, network stack, and virtual file system), and an object-oriented device driver API called I/O Kit.
Some of the benefits of this choice of kernel are the Mach-O binary format, which allows a single executable file (including the kernel itself) to support multiple CPU architectures, and the mature support for symmetric multiprocessing in Mach. The hybrid kernel design compromises between the flexibility of a microkernel and the performance of a monolithic kernel.
It contains BSD code --but so did the NT networking stack at one point. You gonna say that XP is based off FreeBSD next?
XP 64 is better than win2k in many ways. (not to be confused with standard XP). it's more like server 2003.
That's because, for all intents and purposes, it is server 2003.
Windows XP Professional x64 Edition uses version 5.2.3790.1830 of core files, the same version used by Windows XP 64-bit Edition 2003 and Windows Server 2003 SP1 as they were the latest versions during the operating system's development.
you were being completely honest. I know that I certainly would never think to put a fake age, fake name or fake job when I fill out a profile online....nosireebub.
Microsoft doesn't have any grounds for suing. The codebase was written from scratch (so no copyright issues), and if Wine infringes on Microsoft patents, then so does OS X, Linux, BSD, etc. Would you say that all of those are wasted projects, since they are going to be sued and shutdown?
Apple is a formidable enough corporate overlord to stave off patent litigation, but Microsoft has already taken action regarding percieved Linux violations, but that's beside the point....
Windows is Microsoft's bread and butter; in a direct way that Linux and BSD are not. They would make eliminating any perceived threat to their OS and Office suite monopoly a higher priority than eradicating Linus.
However, your point about the software being used during development is one I didn't consider, but still --I'd be very surprised if MS's lawyers aren't sharpening their knives now that WINE is out of beta.
Source is no good unless it compiles. Good luck getting gcc, binutils or anything along those lines to compile on a modern toolchain.
Also, is a.out even supported by modern versions of gcc? You're going to be pretty damned SOL if you compile an ELF binary of a kernel that only recognises a.out.
I think it has less to do with the ideals of the FSF as much is it has to do with a month-long-flamewar that happened on their mailing list from dec to jan. In short they're not as much denouncing GNU as much as they are denouncing GNU trolls
Can you cite some examples (backed up w/ objective references, news articles, anything other than/. posts) where vista demonstratably limits anything that a normal user does or would want to do?
I ask this not only to be snotty, but also because that would help people like me educate our friends who tell us they're going to buy new computers with vista-pre-installed on them. (My current response now is "vista is dog-slow, and most people tend to downgrade to XP for that reason").
It's time for me to retire, I guess. I've survived goatse, tubgirl, torture cat and zippo cat...but after reading a very descriptive review of 2 girls 1 cup I have to say I'm very, very glad I was warned about that in advance. I'm nowhere near 'harcore' enough for that...
Slashdot Mirror
...I'm seeing those ads all over the place; I've only seen the Seinfeld ads twice, I think.
What's strange is this --didn't MS drop the ad agency that came up with the Mojave ads because they were a flop?
I guess when you've got nothing ...you've just got nothing.

Obviously.
These were cute enough -particularly the last one.
"Truly an American an hero"?
Oh yeah -that rolls easily off the tonuge!

Tunnelling, I'd suspect.

...on a project that Microsoft is going to sue into oblivion (over patent issues if nothing else)?
Actually, you're about 7 years off. Spacemen 3 turned into Spiritualized. in roughly 1990, 1991 and then recorded "Ladies And Gentlemen we are floating in space" in 1997, and that's where Cop Shoot Cop is from.
Nope. That's one of the advantages of "empty nest syndrome" ;-)
I got mine from
http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.0/win32/en-US/
last night, and as far as I'm able to tell (looking at help->"about mozilla firefox" and help-> "release notes" ) what I have is 3.0; not the RC.
Of course there's nothing to say they didn't change the "release notes" page on me, either...

Hell, is this even really news?
Too heavy and obvious, they probably decided to go with The Knife...

Nope. Eeryone here has a unique identifying number -though you might want to watch out for user #666 -he's a real asshole.
No-one's cared what Illiad says for a very long time now. Srsly, guy, lrn2draw or GTFO.
The cake is a lie.
And that's terrible.
This is different from all of the 419/v1@gr@ blogs on blogger how, exactly...?
