Yet another generic, non-technical, heavily sposored, buzzword-laden site trying to sell me that "Big Data Amplifies Need for Self-Service Business Intelligence"-bullshit.
The direction slashdot has been heading for a while has had me wondering more than once lately, but at least now I know I should take my pageviews somewhere else.
The "privacy is for old people"-line from LinkedIn founder made me quit the site - there's nothing profesional about LinkedIn - jut another "social" site hoovering info about you.
A lot of third-party security related products (especially in the Authorization/Authentication/Access business) are still tied to Apache since it's been dominating the free-software space for such a long time.
Kindle Fire is not sold outside U.S Kinda hard to see how it would destroy anything until Amazon decides to go global with it (which they probably never will).
Until then the Fire is just a niche product in the American market - not much global relevance.
Thanks for everything Rob, slashdot has been immeasurably important for me for a big chunk of my professional life not to mention the fun it has provided outside work hours. Really. You made the best page on the Internet.
We recently explained how companies including Microsoft and Apple are banding together in anti-competitive patent attacks on Android. The U.S. Department of Justice had to intervene in the results of one recent patent auction to âoeprotect competition and innovation in the open source software communityâ and it is currently looking into the results of the Nortel auction. Our acquisition of Motorola will increase competition by strengthening Googleâ(TM)s patent portfolio, which will enable us to better protect Android from anti-competitive threats from Microsoft, Apple and other companies.
Motorola and Nokia are the two leading patent holders within mobile business, so this is potentially a very good opportunity for Google to use that portfolio as a litigation shield and helping to keep Android (litigation) free.
...so maybe the article author should try to figure out just what "linux" or "linux community" means.
Because they certainly don't mean what he thinks they mean. And therefore his reasoning is flawed from the start.
Linux is just the kernel.
There is no monolithic "community" who can make up their collective hive-minds about OpenOffice vs whatever.
There's plenty of companies, pushing out dists - and some of them might have some sort of ambition to get their particular dist on someones desktop, but it's hardly representative for the entire "community" (which doesn't even exist).
So, how'd you go around playing something like Quake - or even World of Warcraft without being able to use the mouse for free-look/turning? Seems like a cool little gadget for quick remote login - but I'm quite sure the pricetag will make it rather useless for that purpose just as the lack of mouse (together with small screen) will make it useless for "real" gaming.
That's just bullshit, starting from scratch is equally fun and you don't "lose" anything in the process. EVE is a slow moving game and there's a point in not letting everyone fly everything from the start.
But to answer to your main point - it's/perfectly legal/ to purchase a character with 30M SP from the EVE forums (check the Character Bazaar part), if you don't feel like starting from scratch - you're allowed to buy a character.
Uh, you should be alarmed and you should complain - All major (and come think of it even minor) banks offer authenticators and one time pads/scratch cards over here.
Hmm, maybe trade-alt is the way to go, then - my Empire standings don't really allow me to do any high-sec missioning (nor would I want to). Losing a Golem to CONCORD or militia NPCs would suck and skilling an alt to fly it is just...not that effective;-)
Very interested in this proper setup of yours that makes 650M ISK in 15 hours - can you post more details please? I also want to be able to purchase game time with my ISK.

truecrypt isn't distributed with open software license, so my guess would be no...
Eh, that was just fucking horrible -

Yeah, I know, they've been saying that since March.

So, great that everyone with free account will get these synergies from G+. Google's own customers (Domain Apps) still don't have Google+.
So, either create a free GMail account (and deal with the crap of having two Google accounts) or move your stuff somewhere else.
...and that's when production moves to Africa.

Really. You made the best page on the Internet.
From the Google press release:
Motorola and Nokia are the two leading patent holders within mobile business, so this is potentially a very good opportunity for Google to use that portfolio as a litigation shield and helping to keep Android (litigation) free.
Really?!?!
What kind of dark age do you live that don't have 3G mobile USB sticks?

Oh well look at that, yet another feature that Google Apps users will not be able to use.
It seems the best way to opt-out of new Google stuff is to become their customer - then you can't get on these things even if you wanted it.
Yes, it supports multiple keys on multiple devices.
That's where the secondaries come in. The RP's are asked to implicitly to trust the authentication coming from these "trusted sources".
Mozilla is proposing making their own browserid.org as one such secondary.
It's still one of those minor issues that is not "entirely ready" yet.
https://github.com/mozilla/browserid/issues/17
By far the easiest way is to become a paying Google customer.
You'd think they'd offer these things to their paying(/loyal) customers first, but we never got Buzz, +1 and now we can't access Google+ either.
So everyone else gets to opt-in, but if you let Google to host your stuff, you're automatically opted out.
Well, don't use Kies then, it's not like anyone is forcing you?
And why on earth would you want to keep the default ROM on *any* Android phone?
I'm very happy with my Samsung phone.
But each to their own, hope you'll find iPhone does it for you.
Firefox has been a real dog for a long time. Sluggish rendering, big memory footprint and lately strange design decisions and release cycles.
The *only* thing that has kept me using it is the NoScript addon. The rest, Chrome does much better.

.. don't you think?
Mark Zuckerberg featured in a secret screenie that leaks Google's "hot" new feature.
Ouch.

So I guess I'll see you tomorrow then...
