Moreover, I'd like to add that forcing cable companies to comply with FCC regulations is totally ridiculous. How do they regulate wiring intrastate using the "interstate commerce clause"?
It's kinda like the grey area where a police officer saying "sir, please let me take a look inside the vehicle" is technically an innoculous request and not a command.
That's not a grey area, it's deception, pure and simple. The Cop is soliciting permission to search your car, but implying that you have to comply. The correct answer is always 'No'.
Last year they replaced the Unix server, replacing that one box cost more than my 3 racks of Windows servers. Hell, the annual maintenance from HP cost more than all my servers.
Out of curiosity, what sort of hardware is that HP box running? It may in fact be relevant.
Please quote the part where they actually were able to convey the means, timing, and people involved in what actually eventually happened, with enough solid, specific detail to actually do something about it.
How about the report, written several months before the fact, where they warn that terrorists were likely to try using commercial airliners as weapons? There's the 60 minutes report on the flight school where Atta trained and how the FBI blew them off. Sure, we were vulnerable, but none of the stuff we've done in response really fixes that. The attacks themselves did that.
That being that online news source do not hold the same credibility as print. Especially in the eyes of the goverment, and particularly the White House.
Yeah, the White House knows all about credibility. Maybe I'll believe them more when they stop threatening to revoke access when whitehouse reporters don't toe the line.
Um, no one said it was. But it is a form of socialism, albeit on a local level.
So fucking what? You act as if Socialism was automatically a bad thing, when it's quite often the best idea - the national power grid is a form of socialism and it works just fine. National Health Care is socialist, but it's a damn good idea.
When the Washington DC school system is the best in the nation, the Feds will be able to claim they know more about running schools than anybody else.
Shows what you know - the city runs the school system, not the Feds. All the feds do is harrass the city over each little expenditure. I like to think of it as Marion Barry's legacy.
The problem with InnoDB Hot Backup for enterprise use is that it adds lots of load to the server it's backing up and that's not so good for a mission-critical server. IMO it's usually better to back up from a slave instead, so the main server isn't affected.
My understanding of databases may be somewhat limited, but can't you just do the following without additional tools?
set up spare DB and push redo logs from the primary DB to it.
When it's time for a backup, pause the redo log stuff and let the current log finish being applied.
Back up the spare DB, noting which redo log it's on.
If I download a GPL program, modify it, sell it, but don't redistribute the source, I've just violated the GPL, in the same way that someone buys an iMac, modifies OS X, and installs it on a Dell has violated the Apple license.
Not the same thing at all. Your first example is not one of use, but of distribution. Your second example is a pure use one. The GPL is not a use license so much as a distribution license - you can use a GPLed product any way you like, you just have restrictions on your redistribution of it.

I wanted to take him by the Pavek Radio Museum, but that would have been way too cruel ;-)
You should have - maybe he'd bring some buddies out the next time.

Who said anything about the FCC?
isn't it in japan where they're collecting eggs with the ultimate aim of generating state-children?
Sounds like the sort of thing Stalin would go for.
How is it deception?
He's using his position of authority and word choice to imply that it isn't a request. Did you even read my post?

Linux is not Unix, it's "Unix-like". I'm not particularly anal about that distinction, but there is one, and the distinction was made in this test.
This is true enough, but it's becoming less and less relevant. Linux is Unix like enough where it counts.
Because most Linux systems are based on GNU, and GNU's Not Unix! ;-P
Or rather, most linux systems use GNU components.

Name me one viable security threat from 25 years ago that is still important today.
The specific geometry of the core of a nuclear device.
Market forces determine that the lower quality reporters will find something else to do.
Market forces don't guarantee high quality, they give you low cost.

It's like the guy with the Armani suit and Rolex watch driving a Lamborghini - he's compensating for something.
Right, and maybe he just likes nice things. Ever put on an Armani suit? I don't like suits, but I'll make an exception for that one.
Just don't expect any more big payrises... they've got you over a barrel... :-(
As barrels go, this one's pretty good.

Allows you to take a clean snapshot of the entire database without taking it down.
How's that affect the undo segment on a busy database?

They could get those guarantees from "MySQL the company", but not from "MySQL as dowloaded from the net".
Couldn't they also get those guarantees from MySQL support, the third party company with a solid reputation (assuming such an animal exists)?
Maybe you should tell that to Apple, who seem to disagree with you.,/p>
Apple doesn't make PCs, they make Macs. You know - single-source, limited configuration, with custom cases?
Sadly there's not much weight given to SCOTUS decisions in UK trading standards decisions.
The UK case was already covered by another post next to mine.
But Ferraris aren't sold in Brasil, they're sold in Italy (the transaction takes place in Italy).
I'm not sure if that would fly in the US (dunno about Brasil).
This has to be a fake. The email address should end with @3.Sol.MilkyWay, not @MilkyWay.Sol.3.
Nah, that's a location, not an email address.

The question is, did you buy or license the OS ?
I bought it. There is SCOTUS precedent along the same lines as 'walks like a duck, talks like a duck'.
