Seriously, where does this site get its data? It says I'm in the top 0.64% of the world? And putting in various amounts, making $1000/year makes you a part of the top half of all wage earners in the world? Are they counting babies in that or what?
I do. Email doesn't need a graphical application and the excessive resource usage of a GUI.
If I need to view any attachments, I can use a mailcap definition for each type that I want to access (and can update that on the fly if something surprises me).
And I'm contributing to the mutt-kz project as time permits to add the features that would make this sort of mail client all the more useful.
It most certainly does. If you modify code written with the GPL and then release it you have to provide the source code. That's the POINT of the GPL. If you don't release the product for others then, and only then, are you not required to release the source code.
"The GPL is the first copyleft license for general use, which means that derived works can only be distributed under the same license terms. Under this philosophy, the GPL grants the recipients of a computer program the rights of the free software definition and uses copyleft to ensure the freedoms are preserved, even when the work is changed or added to. This is in distinction to permissive free software licenses, of which the BSD licenses are the standard examples. [from wikipedia]

Why would you sell your SIM card? That's what the buyer needs to get from the carrier in order to activate the phone. If you sell your SIM card then it's not a case of data loss but an ignorant person.
I'm on the Connectify blog and I don't see anything about leather cases or flaws. When I search the page for "leather" I only see the tag and nothing else.
...the remote service is using free, open source code that you can then patch and run on your own server. Then when there's a bug, you can fix it and run your own patched copy *and* submit the patch back to the service provider to use.
SaaS in and of itself is not inherently non-free as he seems to be say (or explicitly said).
I started back to university at 36 and, at 43, I just finished my two year degree and am working on my four year in computer science. On top of that, I plan on at least earning my masters before I throw in the towel. I don't think it's ever too late, or a person too old, to continue their education.
Not sure what you mean with #5, but there's no negative marketing WRT CentOS by Red Hat. CentOS is friends with Red Hat and are symbiotic with them: they provide to the market segment that can't or won't pay for support, and when people ask CentOS for support they're directed to Red Hat.
NOTE: I work for Red Hat and we discuss CentOS from time to time internally. It's a generally well accepted relationship we share with the folks at CentOS.
Or even via offlineimap. Why do we need yet another offline email solution when there are tools that exist already? Hell, Thunderbird can replicate your email locally.
And as a Red Hat employee, I can say that Alan's leaving isn't a signal that anything's amiss at Red Hat. Quite the contrary, actually. Alan's not going to leave behind Linux: he's going to continue that with someone else signing his pay check. And by working for Intel he's going to get to work on future hardware sooner.
For my job I deal with some upcoming hardware that requires someone like Alan getting to it before I even touch it, since a working kernel would make my job easier.
I don't know about in general, but I am an anecdotal example of being able to get a job without a degree.
I'm an senior software engineer with Red Hat, and am not degreed. Granted, I've been in school for a several years now in order to get my degree, but did not have one when I was hired three years ago.
Prior to that I have had several very good paying jobs as a developer all based on my experience and not my education. But, when the economy slumped in 2002 I was laid off for an extended period and had a problem finding work. Most employers then were filtering out candidates based on a lack of degree or lack of anything less than a masters.
I agree with those who said biking to work. I ride a bike on the weekends, though, since I live too far from work to ride a bike in and I also have a 12 year old son that I drive to school near the office.
For myself, I run every morning. 30 minutes on a treadmill or outside depending on the weather. Our office has a small gym with cardio equipment (elliptical machine, rowing machine, treadmills, stationary bikes) and nobody else goes in there when I do in the morning.
My brother died the day after this past Christmas. While organizing his things, I had to shut down his internet account, his XM radio account, etc. It's a hard thing to do emotionally, but from a customer service perspective there was very little resistance from the service providers for this.
What I would recommend is to protect their dignity, whatever you decide. If you find pornography, delete it. If you find sensitive documents beyond a possible suicide note, use your better judgement or let the family decide. But regarding your question about accessing their accounts, I feel it's okay to do so provided you're doing it for the family and not to be invasive.
...is that you start to dread going onto your laptop/desktop just to browse the web because someone wants to chat in IM. Do you just ignore them? Do you mark yourself as "offline" (after it just finished announching you were back online)? For me, I dread the "uh oh!" sound file sometimes when I'm just wanting to check something on IMDB, or see if any new email arrived, and a friend wants to start an IM conversation...
Of course, the FBI should have gotten a search warrant, but I'm sure they will now and I hope they can determine who sent the threats, because I want to live in a world where I know if someone sends me a death threat (or what-have-you), that they will be found and I won't have to fear my safety on their account.
Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.

Then fight those people who're trying to push religion in the classroom under the guise of "science".

No, the GPL does not force others to share.

This is perfect to outfit my team of Ninja bodyguards. The assassins won't know who to attack.
Just don't hire those midget body guards you were eyeing before...
I thought this was being translated, as in ported, to other platforms.
Like Linux.
Crap. I'm never going to get to play Portal 2 on my Fedora laptop, am I?

...when it became focused on the STO and New Cap City and forgot about the evolution of the Cylons and the backstory hinted at in BSG itself.
I'll be commenting on this on my podcast this weekend and invite people to respond with their opinions as well.
I, for one, would like to throw my support towards any effort that results in Ben Affleck being shot at an asteroid.

I've noticed the same thing. I can't get connected via Pidgin at all...

Bob Young came onto the scene 2 years after Red Hat was created. You can't co-found something that's already been found.
Mark Ewing founded Red Hat in 1993. Bob Young's company, ACC Bookstores, bought out Mark in 1995 and Young became CEO until 1999.

Time travel is possible. Here, let me show you. I'm going to travel into the future and prove it.
[waits a minute]
I have arrived. Remember that post you made about time travel not being possible?
