The thread following TFA mentions that this is for CM10 nightlies, so if you're tracking the development branch, you just need to upgrade to the latest nightly to ensure you have the fix.
I made the plunge about 10 years ago, and haven't looked back. I don't even dual boot any more. I just run the odd Windows virtual machines for stuff I don't trust to Wine.
Trafficking in child pornography carries mandatory sentences in many jurisdictions. Simply posting, or even merely linking to that underage sex video can be enough to qualify.
I believe this offender deserves what he got, without reading into it further.
Actually, I heard on NPR's Morning Edition that two of the four largest labels have signed up for Amazon's music download site. One of these labels includes Universal, which is (apparently) by far the largest label. And if your favorite artist isn't covered in this beta, you can still probably buy the CD from Amazon.
The new thing is variable pricing, though I'm not sure if that means more popular tracks will be higher priced.
You've got to remember that this will probably be used (at least at first) as an alternative treatment of major depression for when traditional (chemical) treatments do not work. It will most likely be used when the illness is debilitating, where the sufferer cannot function. Creating works of art (or performing any task which requires intense concentration) in a depressed state implies that there's a modicum of function. I know of people that cannot even put a single sentence together when they're most depressed.
As someone with bipolar disorder, I welcome any further additions to the repertoire of weapons we have against serious depression. I just hope no one in the trials commits suicide, a common occurrance of people who are just beginning to have their depression lifted.
It was not uncommon at all for Lucent to fly Cisco/Nortel employees from Can to US for an interview at the spur of the moment -- including putting them up in hotel, costs, etc...
It's not uncommon for that to happen to anyone in a tech position. I was flown to a location, put up in a hotel, and given cab fare just for an interview. A lot of companies do this...
Too bad I didn't get the job, but I got a free trip out of it!
I would wager that you haven't tried any of the newer end-user-oriented distributions. You're a Debian user; you owe it to yourself to at least have a look at Ubuntu. I've had less problems with Ubuntu on my aging Thinkpad R32 than I had with Windows XP (the OS the laptop came with)! I'm not saying you'll fall in love and you'll stick with it, but just give it a shot. You may be surprised.
TurboTax Online comes out in January. Firefox support remains to be seen, obviously, but I'm not overly concerned, given FF's now-relatively-high market share.
I've used TurboTax Online for the past three years, and I know at least the last two were performed using Firefox, on Linux even. I don't remember running into any show-stopping, major problems.
All you need to do is sign off and sign back on, and they're there. I hadn't received them since I have been connected since yesterday, and as a test I logged off and logged back in. Blam, there they were...
I can't find it, but I think I saw somewhere where CmdrTaco said that dupes served a purpose, such as giving people who haven't seen the story yet a chance to read about it. Of course, the fact that the original for this story is on the front page is still pretty sad...
What if some [terrorist, child porn, etc.] group decided to set up a network of Asterisk or Bayonne servers, virtually circumventing any established VoIP providers? I'm not sure about Bayonne, but Asterisk is extremely easy to throw together and set up. Will they make setting up such "unlicensed" servers illegal? I shudder to think what that would do to the community at large...
It is anti-competitive. It's just not necessarily illegal. At least in the US, companies aren't allowed to require exclusive licenses if it can be proven that they have a monopoly. Doing so would be an abuse of their monopoly status. IANAL, and all that.
It is arguable whether Intel has monopoly status or not.
This article makes a good case for ATA over Ethernet. The main difference the article points out between AoE and iSCSI is that iSCSI is dependent upon TCP/IP, which has quite a bit of overhead associated with it.
Whether it's better or not, I don't know. Just remember that every technology was once new.
Not all roads crack because of freezing water. Take New Orleans for example, which has some of the worst paved roads in the US if not the world. All the roads are built on a swamp, and little if any freezing occurs during the year. In some parts the roads are bad because of old cedar stumps that the swamp pushes up. Roads in New Orleans are in a constant state of disrepair because of this. It is not uncommon to run into troughs in the road that are three feet deep. We sometimes call them "tank traps."
I think this flexible concrete could help there, too.
Somehow I doubt that you will find the claimed figures to even be accurate to within %1
A %1 confidence interval is pretty tight. Had they given a confidence interval of even 5% I would have been suspect, since it would be fairly difficult to justify any confidence interval, really. As someone above stated, the data has so much noise, and it's nearly impossible to separate the signal from the noise in this case.
Yes, but shred can be used on raw hard drive devices (e.g./dev/hda), irrespective of the filesystem on it. But you're correct, that even in that case shred can't get rid of backups of the files. Also, if the hard drive has bad sectors that the drive itself has marked, shred can't do anything about data in those bad sectors.
If you're running UNIX-like system (e.g. Linux, Solaris, etc.) that has GNU coreutils installed, there's a program called shred that will make it more difficult to recover deleted files. Read the shred info page for more information.
Unfortunately it doesn't look like Cygwin has coreutils as one of its packages, so shred is probably not available under Windows.
I agree. And using that egrep command works very well for just checking that the braces are matched up, without having to bounce between each pair of braces as long as you're using the opening brace on its own line style. Only time it doesn't show only the braces are for the closing brace of a do-while loop (or any identifying comments).
Also, it's much easier to eyeball that two braces match by comparing the indentations. But saying one way is better than the other is just stupid.
One thing in addition to that, is that all those who did serve on the same boat stand behind Kerry's war record in unison. That has to say something, too.

an increasing tendancy among scientists to take theory as fact
Established theories are the closest we have to science "facts." Remember, the theory of gravity is only a theory.

What no one here seems to mention is that if you bring what you rented back to Blockbuster, you get refunded that "purchase."
I'm no chemist, but I know there are chemicals out there that smell really bad, even with trace amounts. Perhaps this glue is like that.

Actually I've heard of a case where a patient at a mental hospital refused to speak anything other than Klingon, so they had to get an interpreter.
