I'm not sure it'd be totally irrelevant. If you'd go so far as to brick my phone as an "f-you" to protect your partners network exclusivity, I'd guess that maybe that's an argument for unfair collusion of the antitrust sort? I am not a lawyer, of course.
Wow, congrats man... changing "MS finds security flaw in Google Chrome Frame" to "Microsoft security researcher confirms advantages of open source transparency" is a spin worthy of Fox News. You might have a future in public relations.:)
"But Linden Labs isn't worried, because the number of users continues to rise. "Monthly repeat login - a metric we use to gauge the number of users engaged with Second Life - grew 23% from September 2008 to September 2009," says Mark Kingdon, chief executive of Linden Lab."
I wouldn't know as I've never used it, but after all the huff and puff it seems they're doing alright.
Dropbox is good up to a few gigs, but their pay service is expensive per GB. I presently use it with SyncToy (scheduled) to keep stuff up-to-date between machines... but only for a small set of important stuff.
For larger things, the OP's selection of Jungledisk is far more cost effective... and if speed is an issue I wonder if he/she knows that Jungledisk backends to EITHER Rackspace or Amazon. They should try the other.
"Q: What kinds of open source projects will the Foundation focus on? The Foundation has no pre-suppositions about particular projects, platforms, or open source licenses . "
"ONS was notified last week of this problem. They've confirmed that, indeed, its Website was hacked. It claims to have fixed the SQL injection problems and that there was no danger because there was no connection between its Website network and back-end control network."
That's a pretty significant difference. Major stores opting not to carry something controversial is a far cry from a government censoring content because it has decided that you shouldn't see it.
Really? I didn't take that from it at all. I took from it that an American was the real bad guy. Even if that weren't the case, it didn't seem like it would otherwise correlate in any meaningful way. In the game it's Russians killing Russians and framing the Americans... all to start a war between super powers. 9/11 was a group of batshit insane non-Americans killing Americans (and other non-Americans I'm sure) and specifically claiming credit for it. Did they say it was some kind of goofy statement about Afghanistan and Iraq? Because that doesn't seem to make any sense.
Keeping it closed source keeps people from easily porting the newest versions of the framework to platforms other than windows?
I write against the.net framework, but not mono, because mono can't keep up with MS's framework. That also means that my apps don't run anywhere but on windows machines.
I have nothing against mono, I just can't afford to work in what amounts to a 4 year old version of the framework.
Next, dirty homes, or homes with pets!
I got really excited until I realised that I was about to punch my required Google credentials into a VM prepared by someone I don't know or trust. :(

So long as you're selling "Change", I'm buying!
Wow, that about covers it. WAY TO GO BUDDY... now I have to go back to work.
Killjoy.

The difference with an MS patch is more like we'd have known about it since 2007.
As much as I'd like to agree, my guess is most people would simply assume that the levee would do the job.
Those who did question it probably couldn't afford to move on a hunch. We're not talking about wealthy areas here.
Even worse, any plea to local government was probably deferred in favor of other issues considered more pressing to a depressed area.
Just guessin'.
They get a lot of hurricanes in the Netherlands, huh?
And yet from that article...
"But Linden Labs isn't worried, because the number of users continues to rise.

I can't imagine there's a ton of VC floating around right now, and even less so for folks coming out of an unsuccessful (as of late) studio.
Not to say that has anything to do with the developers, mind you.

Yeah right... go sell that at work.
That's a good feature to add, and I applaud the fact that they continue to improve it over time.
Now all they have to do is change that f'ing juvenile name.
From the FAQ:
"Q: What kinds of open source projects will the Foundation focus on?
The Foundation has no pre-suppositions about particular projects, platforms, or open source licenses . "
They were not. Read the article.
"there was no danger because there was no connection between its Website network and back-end control network"
FTA...
"ONS was notified last week of this problem. They've confirmed that, indeed, its Website was hacked. It claims to have fixed the SQL injection problems and that there was no danger because there was no connection between its Website network and back-end control network."
I'd like to introduce you to a truly enlightening product!
And you have the added benefit of being able to run Windows 95 again!

Such problems, to be the victim of ones own success. :)
But I guess it would suck if your competitor could name their product after your company and actually get away with it on grounds of ubiquity.
Wow man, back in nineteen-diggity-two? They'd put your ass in cuffs for suspicion of even THINKING about bribing a cop around here now.
Now you're really only allowed to bribe people in Chicagoland if you're a contractor friendly to a politician or a politician yourself.
