  1. Re:Hrm on SCO Extorting Unixware Licenses to Linux Users? · · Score: 1
    I don't know about that "SCO stuff that matters"...

    I'm beginning to think this is more a question of mind over matter: We don't mind, so SCO doesn't matter....

  2. Re:I'm sure pilots will love this on Protecting Cities from Hijacked Planes · · Score: 2, Insightful
    I like that comparison with a Space Shuttle. First of all, there are 5 computers controlling it. Second of all, read this article: "Columbia, other shuttles have history of computer glitches".

    Third of all, how many space shuttle flights have there been in the last 10 years? And how many commercial airplane flights have there been in the last 10 years? How many people are monitoring the Space Shuttle flying? How many people are monitoring the average commercial airplane flying? Don't compare apples and oranges.

    Oh and I almost forgot: you mention that the autopilot in Columbia _can_ be disabled. The autopilot mentioned here _cannot_ be disabled. Slight difference. Nothing worth mentioning. Until you need to disable it.

    Not off-topic. In fact, very much on-topic. Thanks for providing that link Richard (in case anyone has their filter set to 1 or higher, here's the interview with Richard Huddy from ATI).

    Can somebody please moderate this as funny? If there is research on that website, it must be buried in the enormous flood of words that tells the reader how stupid they are if they don't accept that Gene Ray is the most intelligent being on earth. LOL.

    Or may come up with a weird symbol (TSPKAG - The System Previously Known As GNU).
