the worst crime is converting nuke power plants from electro mechanical protective relays to easily hackable microprocessor based electronic relays like the GE Multilins. I installed Multilins in a missile defense power plant and had to call the FBI with a warning "do not connect Multilins to the internet". The stupid military didn't care..
Caveat emptor.
I suggested to Ralph that while replacing the analog protective relays at a critical missile defense power plant I discovered that the replacement digital relays made by General Electric were not cyber secure.
I included cyber security precautions in the Operation & Maintenance Manuals and recommended periodic checks to verify that the relays were not connected to the internet.
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence retained me to visit the site and report on the status. The Air Force refused permission fo me to visit the site.
The FBI and US congressional delegation's efforts to intervene were rebuffed by USAF General. Fraser..
Upgrading controls from old technology hardware implementations to software/hardware based devices is fraught with issues.
NOT ONLY DIGITAL DEVICES BUT ALSO BUREAUCRATIC REFUSALS TO LISTEN AND FOLLOW PROCEDURES ARE BOTH EQUALLY DANGEROUS.
A description of the project is in the minutes of the Spokane Western Protective Relay Conference.

Its Hayden who is treasonous.
Doesn't he understand that the American Revolution was caused by Writs of Assistance?
Hayden, Alexander and Clapper should be tried for treason, and punished accordingly..
Two major licensees of ATT Unix placed the complete ATT distribution including sources in the public domain in the late 1980's. The Linux kernel could be 100% SV5R4 and be still be in the public domain.
McBride got sold a bill of goods.
I think the SEC and the ABA should investigate.
get 5 machines and 5 interested users
when they're happy convert the rest
shoot the accountants, they have been replaced by spreadsheets
go for it
I am all Linux, BURNT all my MicroSlop Licenses
depends on how skilled you are
I've been building systems since 1970
You can get screwed by:
flaky motherboard mfgr
bad return policy, etc
prototype a test system and fire Linux up on it
I'd have no problem with this but I don't build for others
PS I build NEW AMD systems for $600 full tilt
It is sad to read about the world's wealthiest couple treating our children so shabbily.
All Microsoft had to do is to provide a "token" which could be attached to each PC hard drive to demonstrate ownership.
My recommendation to the school district is "convert to Linux". With very few exceptions any application that a school district needs can be run under Linux.
On the last day of school all possibly unlicensed PC's should be wiped and converted to Linux over the summer. That could also be done today.
I burned all my licenses when I converted to 100% Linux.
Never felt better.
Not true.
The SemiAutomaticGroundEnvironment (SAGE) System paid for the developmnet of harddrives. circa 1953.
My Dad told me about them and the "gun" that generals used to point at blips on the radar screen.
When the fiber optic light pen was activated a BOMARC missle was automatically launched to destroy the target.
Computer games..........
I've lived in Alaska for 30 years and wintered over in Barrow, Alaska.
The natives snowmachine anywhere and everywhere.
Visiting relatives in Russia is commonplace.
In whiteouts.
Without compasses.
Figure.
There is plenty of open source available, fron the finite elements generator used on the Space Shuttle and Lifting Body to Microwave Design Tools.
Much of the code requires a "keep in the US" agreement from the JNO (Jail Now Officer) that approves the licenses.
Also a form DD2345 is required to stipulate the safeguarding of the source code and executables.
GPL'ing a combat system is definitely not a good idea. For that you should go to jail.
Remember that the Japs shot our scrap metal back at us in WWII.
IBM management has hacked and chopped the drive team to the point that they are "below critical mass"
What does IBM expect if you threaten the best engineers in the world with 3rd world replacement?
Looks like the ASCII computers have a significant amount of downtime - Was a reliability analysis ever done?
Checkpointing the nuclear simulations takes 50% runtime.
ASCII is an $800 million white elephant nuclear dud simulator.
Uncle George W. may have to unsign Uncle Billy's Test Ban Treaty, but then again Afganistan is a better test site than Yucca Flats....

You red sob's are screwed because its been going on since 1996! Just try alaunch, 60 of your cities will go up in smoke!

WF did me in 2003.. I took a 3.5%$ HELOC & disbursed from an unauthorized 16% line of credit. I have all the docs. DOJ is not interested.

Microwaves cause eye lesions, which have occurred at military radar sites. the 11,000 subjects better have their eyes checked.
Much of the copyrighted work is not Novells for Unix 386. The copyright is invalid. I have source code to prove it.
Who is this McClown? ATT Unix is pubic domain software and McBride helped put it there.

the patents are invalid, NCR is not the inventor this was all implemented in Smalltalk 80 in the early '80's

So put the sources on a server located in a country that Microslop has no patent protection in Not my problem
I've asked to have a hearing in the house Senators Hollings and Stevens are off their rockers
