From http://www.postgresql.org/docs/ you have the choice of the manual for each version of PostgreSQL since 7.4, with or without user comments.
I have not sat down and read the manual all the way through; however I have used it extensively for reference and I have found it an excellent resource for learning about PostgreSQL. I would even say that it is the definitive PostgreSQL reference, even the best one that I have seen.
To steal a joke from their comments, "it's just like the good old days!"
At some point, quite recently, our popular site "The People's Cube" (ThePeoplesCube.com) was purged from Google search results. MSN , Yahoo and other search engines still have it - but Google has erased/blocked any link to the site in its database...
I hope you're not being serious. The root password is visible in/proc/$pid_of_rm/args the whole time that rm is running. w(1) is merely one of many ways for the user to access that information.:)
What other points? My point was that a PC set up by an OEM has all the same things done to it that a Macintosh does when you install the System.
Just as 99.9% of all Windows users never upgrade their hardware or operating system, 99.9% of all Mac users never upgrade their hardware or operating system. Both groups buy a new system 2-3 years down the line.
Personally I couldn't care less about Vista as I am a happy Debian user.
For that to be a fair comparison you should compare like with like: a PC with a preconfigured, OEM installation of Windows will likewise already contain all the drivers you need and so on.
Yes, this is what I thought. The attack I was talking about would involve a Chip & PIN reader that is modified in two ways. First, a magstrip reader is added, to capture the card number. Second, additional circuitry is added to the keypad so that the PIN is recorded. Now the evil shopkeeper has both your card number and PIN.:(
Cracked executable files are a lot smaller than the images of entire CDs. Plus he doesn't have to mount each CD image before playing the game it matches.
Supporting EFI would be supporting competition. Incentive to abandon Microsoft.
Not at all. The user in question would still be running Windows would they not?
Being able to dual boot to Windows would actually increase a user's reliance on Microsoft, since games developers would then have even less incentive to port their games to the Mac OS.

Complain to the people who wrote your C library? :)
Most of them already do.

What on earth does the graph at http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,1937997 ,00.asp mean? What are the units and scale used for the X axis?
You didn't read the manual? :)
Because it's so terribly difficult to go to postgresql.org and click documentation.
apt-get install postgresql-8.1 does not seem to be much more difficult than apt-get install mysql-server. ;)
Looks like a QT bug to me.

What file can I read from to take a screenshot?
Which file do I write to to PING a given network address?

Well done, you just took out the ability for most daemons to write to their log files.
They have NO CHOICE. They simply do not have permission to distribute binaries of metatalk linked against OpenSSL.
Now, if you think this is not true you are free to set up your own website and provide your own packages. Debian does not want the legal risk.
Why not complain to the authors of Metatalk and get them to add an exemption to their license that allows linking against OpenSSL?

Can't a human sort out the card number from the extra data? Do you have any further information about this?

The ability to run Halo 2?
Unless the reader has a magstripe reader. ;p
Take them to the small claims court.
Step 15 should have been, "sue retailer in small claims court for selling you defective merchandise". Don't let these thugs push you around!
This is true, but you forget that the cards still have an additional magnetic stripe on the bottom, for compatibility with legacy systems.
Oh, or more obviously it could capture your PIN and store it along with the card details. Can't believe I forgot that one!
