This is the usage of the United States Government Printing Office and of the Oxford University Press.
Exceptions are the possessives of ancient proper names in -es and -is, the possessive Jesus', and such forms as for conscience' sake, for righteousness' sake. But such forms as Achilles' heel, Moses' laws, Isis' temple are commonly replaced by
the heel of Achilles
the laws of Moses
the temple of Isis
The pronominal possessives hers, its, theirs, yours, and oneself have no apostrophe.

I think we can all agree that Linus is on par with Jesus and therefore a single apostrophe is correct.
ZFS isn't a traditional file system; it's also an LVM and raid system. So it doesn't fit into the linux model and making it work with linux would require other kernel changes.
Anyhow, file systems are not part of the kernel. They're separate binaries that communicate with the kernel (or with FUSE) through a documented API (ie, the vfs). So if btrfs doesn't require kernel changes, Apple (or a 3rd party) could use the GPL btrfs source to create a GPL OS X btrfs file system.
the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
the nature of the copyrighted work;
the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.
I know/. likes to think redistributing mp3s is fair use since it's lossy compression and people wouldn't have bought the song anyway, but that's a very tortured explanation and out of touch with reality.
McIntyre has repeatedly pointed out problems with NASA's temperature data and claims thereof (like calling September 1998 the second warmest October on record, or the "y2k" error that made 1998 the warmest year of the century). As a result, they've revised and corrected. Having a contrarian skeptic is a good thing (unless your theories and data are garbage, of course).
LGPL is only viral within the library/dll. The MPL only applies to the contents of the file itself (not other files that use it). So IE 2009 could be a closed source binary linked to the LGPL gecko/firefox libs, or a closed source binary (publishing any changes to gecko/firefox code).
this is slashdot, where everyone uses linux, IRC, and bash to manage your ogg collection.

Those two statements are correct, and that's the problem because many red light cameras target the vehicle, not the operator. (California seems to require a picture of the driver and the license plate)

What's the going rate for an incompetent lawyer? Because they could have settled beforehand for $3000 or so.
There is no GPL-licensed COBOL compiler. By your logic, COBOL code cannot be released under the GPL.

Not only can you print from linux (it's ascii text sent over port 9100), you can also run linux on the fucking printer itself.
2004 era phones (RAZR, for example) supported music and video.
Samsung (and maybe others by now) have 1ghz ARM chips. Dual core is expected next year.
the alternative is to store (and maintain) the length of the string.
those grapes were probably sour anyway.
Since Malda likes em young, I'd guess he is a chronological 11-13 year-old.
yeah, that hasn't happened since, oh, 2 days ago.
The noscript author is an assclown who silently enables ads (And disables noscript) for his own financial advantage.

typo: September 2008 data was the second warmest October on record.

maybe Bing's previews cause the user to hit your site without leaving the bing page.

The iPhone OS supports background processes. The app store guidelines ban background apps, to preserve battery life.
... but you would need to sign a model release before an advertiser could use it.
Additionally, WebOS is basically WebKit plus some custom javascript objects. Most of Pre was built and designed by current and former Apple employees.

The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled that red light cameras violate state law for that very reason.
With many red light cameras, the fact that you weren't driving doesn't matter.
