Pretty ironic that Tesla might instigate a switch from AC to DC, given that Nikola Tesla fought Thomas Edison over AC vs. DC, with Tesla favoring AC. Especially ironic when you realize that a major (AC) power company is called Con Edison.

I don't see how this would break RSS readers. DTDs pretty much never get read except by validators. Normal SGML and XML parsers just treat the DTD URL as an opaque string, not as something that can be retrieved.
I'm going to assume that you're capable of basic arithmetic, and meant to write 'hours' instead of 'seconds'.
That's not just my assertion. It's a documented fact that in an average half-hour, more people will die than in the September 11th attacks. Stating that fact isn't the same as claiming that the September 11th attacks were moral, or that they were insignificant, or any other such thing.
It might also be worth mentioning that in an average hour, 6304 people die. That's more than twice the number of people who died in the September 11th attacks (2973). I'm not saying those attacks weren't a big deal, but maybe we are overestimating their effect a bit?
Would Flash animations (and animated GIFs, for that matter) be regulated too? I don't see any reason why they wouldn't be (cartoon boobies -- won't someone please think of the children!), but it seems like that type of regulation would be even more upsetting to the general population than one on live action video. 'What, you mean I can't watch H*R when I'm supposed to be working anymore?!'
Actually, glibc is licensed under the LGPL, not the GPL. You can statically link LGPLed software with a closed source program as long as you include the object (.o) files when you distribute it so that anyone can relink it with a different version of the LGPLed component.
Visible light would screw up the whole "darkened theater" concept, would it not? How irritating would it be to try and watch a movie with Laser Floyd going on all around you?
I think the theory is that it will act as a deterrent, and people will stop trying to take pictures.
And OS/2 is a different version of Windows NT, right?
Linux distros should be, from the user's perspective, completely unrelated operating systems. The fact that they share a lot of software is nothing but an implementation detail.
If someone built a hospital in a neighborhood where random drive-by shootings were common and didn't even put bullet-proof glass on the windows, blaming the victim (the hospital's owners, not the patients) would be perfectly reasonable. Same thing here.

Dupe!
Well, sort of.

And the misspellings are much worse.

When did I say that there should be no penalty for the September 11th attacks? Are you literate?

The download page picks a random mirror. Linking directly to the file would put all of the load on a single mirror.

Couldn't Fox (MySpace's owner) raise a lot more awareness with their news network than they could with concerts?
That's all well and good if you your goal is for the user to track himself, but how is the server going to get an image out of the cache?
I'm sorry, but did you really just say that Python and Ruby run faster than C#?

Sinc when is parroting the headline funny?
Now when John Mark Karr kills children in his new country, he can get free laptops!
I hereby predict that podcasts will cease to be cool by January '09.
Now all it needs is a hearthstone.

I would assume each chip is given a unique ID. When an employee quits/is fired, the ID is removed from the scanner's list of people to let in.
