That's a good point. Also, wouldn't it be an easy solution to tweak Grub so it makes a copy of the trusted bootloader, and then feed that bootloader virtually to SP1? Or would that violate some law? Feeding the trusted file to SP1 when it asks, without breaking the encryption, just passing it AS-IS, shouldn't violate any laws. Passing the info AS-IS would also mean that it would pass the authenticity check in SP1. Shouldn't be too hard to do.
Remember: Those who say something can't be done are usually seen to be rather short-sighted after someone does it.
Adobe abandons just about anything. They bought Pagemaker and abandoned it. They bought JRun and abandoned it. They almost seem to have abandoned Flash - They've been promising 64-bit support since XP x64 came out in 2002 or 2003. And now XP x64's been end-of-lifed and STILL no Flash x64 player.
What is the meaning of these "k's" they are referencing here? I'm thinking it's not "kilo" in this case if 18k of them takes 200 gigs to store, unless they are using some kind of anti-compression on the data.
I do! Unfortunately from what I've heard we're going to be forced into using Eclipse, which tries to be all things for all developers, and seems to fail miserably at that.
The company I work for has a huge monolith of code all done in C#/ASP.NET. We are currently in the process of scrapping it all to go Java and Ruby on Rails.
Seems like a huge expenditure for little gain, but I guess I'll wait to see what it looks like on the other side. At least I'll have experience with both when this is over. I've got lots of open source administration experience, but little open source programming experience. I'm too spoiled with the Visual Studio training wheels. It's going to be tough to go to a shittier IDE.
Sure, while we're at it, let's give the rich two votes and all black people get 1 3/8th of a vote. That way it's twice the 4/5ths vote they used to get!
Didn't stop our good buddy W when it came to the Nigerian Yellowcake Uranium not actually being sold to Iraq. Complete bullshit is the news of the day.
Republicans are for the rich, Democrats are for the poor (I think, I'm really confused by them lately). What we need is a Party of the Middle Class. (POMP)
Cities... Not metropolitan areas. Chicago, Detroit, LA, NYC - regardless of any government agency called "City of xxx", the word city fails there - the correct word is metropolis.

This is a large paragraph full of useless text to get around Slashdot's annoying "characters per line" filter. It is generously padded with long lines of text to increase the average line length significantly over it's originally puny value of 19.0. Ideally, this paragraph will let me post the above comment. I certainly don't recommend reading all this, since it is intended entirely as filler content, like the other nine songs on a pop CD. This is fluff, like the fluff that drifts from the cottonwood trees, or spewed from major news organizations like so many soggy white drifts from an industrial snowblower. Really, I'm losing my mind writing this. Ok, lets try now! Nope, still not good enough. Right now I'm at 25.7. I'm really not sure where the cutoff is, so I'll just keep going. I gotta tell you, I honestly don't think the film rights to this whole saga are gonna be worth much: didn't Dumb and Dumberer tank? Seriously, SCO should move to California where things are already so far off their rocker that even McBride would fit in. One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish...A chicken farmer went out, one dark and windy day. He rested by the coop, as he went along his way. When all at once a rotten egg, hit him in the eye. It was the site he dreaded...ghost chickens in the sky. Ok, maybe that's enough drivel. I'll try posting again.
What's wrong with SVN? I use it all the time, and it seems to work very well. Merges have been a bit bizaare in the past, but things have greatly improved in the new 1.5 version.
Then again, Microsoft's Team Foundation Server has by far the best merging I've ever seen. *snork*

+1 informative to this guy - the best explanation I've seen in all the replies.
Thanks!

What afterlife? Spare us your boogeyman superstition please...

Is that some kind of excuse for such action?

You are a fucking tool.

Are you kidding me, or just trolling?
The well thought-out amendments should be ignored in favor of quick-fix crap laws like we get today?
Go back to the authoritarian cesspool where you came from.

Whoosh! :)
It's one of the larger cities in Wyoming. Get with it. ;)
Do I trust a judge and jury to appreciate the difference? Not in the slightest. Do you? If so, why?
Fucking horrible idea, but the same thing the company I work for is going to. Just sucks, horribly confusing, obtuse, hard to remember what is what.
I like the subdomain idea much better. Keep it simple. someserver.somelocation.companyname.com.
I've been using Avast! Home Edition for a while now, no complaints.
Screen is designed for exactly what you are wanting. I wouldn't look at anything else.
It's easy to use, takes about 5 minutes to figure out how to use it.
Look how shitty Safari did there, looks like memory leaks there, big time.
Nyah Nyah Nyah!
Is there an exeption?
Dude, 1998 called, they want their anti-government mantra back.
Dude, you need to get some exercise - there's this girl named Michelle, maybe you should ask her to give you a bike ride.
