If you get Internet (or phone) without TV, they install a TV filter on your line. Thus, from a strictly technical (not licensing) standpoint, Internet-without-TV is actually more expensive than Internet-with-TV
I don't mean we (unvaccinated, breastfed-as-a-baby) don't get horrible-diseases-the-vaccines-are-for, I mean we don't get sick in general all that often. I personally have not had a need to see a doctor for at least 6 or 7 years now. My three-year-old has only been sick a few times, and the only significant problem we've had with her health was when she got a bad sunburn once.
Contrast this to my son, who is, while not vaccinated, not breastfed either (due to technical difficulties)-- he has been sick far more than his sister, sometimes (over a few months) even seeming like it's a majority of the time.
If you think warrants are needed in the US, you are dead wrong. Perhaps in theory, but if they come with no basis and insist on searching you, how are you going to stop them? Going to take it up in court after the fact, even though they threaten to simply perjure? Since they're law enforcement, their statements are more "credible" up against yours.
1. Hey, guess what? Linux supports metadata and ACLs! You just apparently don't use them.
2. Why must root be unable to revoke powers? A God-like user is necessary.
3. Who said everything is a file? Dealing with URIs instead of paths might be nice, but breaks all the existing standards. FUSE can do something similar, though.
VirtualBox has nothing over qemu except some pretty UI. And guess what? kqemu isn't a binary translation engine: code executes directly on your CPU, even without the new virtualization extensions.
You're right that bridge mode should be implemented properly, but qemu already does this via TUN/TAP. The actual bridging is an OS feature. Complain to your OS if it's broken, don't whine that qemu doesn't provide some hack around it.
Qemu is the best of VirtualBox, which is why I'd pick Qemu *over* VirtualBox any day.
Networking is simple with user-mode networking. Most people don't *need* bridge-mode. If you do use bridge mode, it works using standard Linux networking stuff, not some proprietary mess like VMWare. Regular users can do TUN/TAP devices just fine, BTW.
That it blocks anything has nothing to do with it being NAPT. It would be perfectly valid for a NAPT to treat unknown inbound connections specially and broadcast the attempt to all known internal IPs-- connecting it through to whichever responds positively first (if any).
uPNP configures port forwarding for a NAPT (aka NAT) router. NAPT/NAT is *not* a firewall, and should not be treated like one. Its sole purpose is to translate addresses and ports (Network Address and Port Translating) between the internal and external networks. It is not meant to protect computers on either end from each other. uPNP facilitates the NAPT job by giving applications an easy way to automate the needed port forwarding for the WAN->LAN direction. If you want a firewall, get a real firewall.

Whoever modded this Troll is just ignorant.

The proprietary/2.4 is a problem, sure, but Linux 2.4 supports IPv6...
What are these megabits used in the comparison? Out here in the middle of nowhere (Nebraska), Cox provides 12 mbit/s cable...
Because democracy is perfect...?
You mean your physician who's paid to push drugs, went to a college funded by drug companies, and thinks drugs are the solution to everything?
Unvaccinated, breastfed kids don't generally get sick. (very rarely)
C introduces types. Assembly (MIPS, at least, which is all I know) only has 32-bit integers.
"PC" (Personal Computer) is a form of use, not related at all to hardware nor software.
Err, what? You have Konqueror and Chrome's aims almost completely reversed!
properly named: Presto (Opera) Trident (IE) Gecko (Mozilla/Firefox) WebKit (Safari/Chrome/Arora/FoxKit) and you missed: KHTML (Konqueror)
Why the heck would you merge the toolkit and WM?
Yes, USB sucks. But that's USB that sucks, not Linux's support for it.

I'm not so sure you can really run Linux 2.0 anymore... It probably requires GCC 1 or 2 and won't build with anything recent.
Why build anything in Windows? I have no problems building Windows binaries (MingW) and installers (NSIS) from Linux.

If Nokia stops publishing Qt under the GPL, the last GPL'd version automatically gets a nice BSD license slapped on it: http://www.kde.org/whatiskde/kdefreeqtfoundation.php

It's called PGP. Use it.
There's certainly more than 100 IPv6 websites in the world... even Armagetron Advanced's website supports IPv6.
