We seem to be reaching consensus on validating return addresses. Let's wait until something is in place there before jumping on folks who might just be running a mailing list or two.
It wasn't open in the GPL sense, but in those days everything was compiled (well, assembled) on site from sources. It was normally the customers' responsibility.
They propose allowing you to record "entire broadcasts", not individual songs, for later playback. What do you bet that the next step will be disallowing fast-forward/commercial skip?
If truly unbreakable crypto is ever devised, every government in sight will simply legislate it out of existance via penalties so severe that you won't risk using it.
I was in the USAF at the time. Got to go on a special visit with some physicists (I was the token computer guru with the right clearances). On the way out (5 of us, plus 6 MPs), we were talking about stuff like this and joking about how cool it was to visit without tourists around. But once we got there and looked around a bit, everyone became quiet, and we never discussed it again.
You're right. A fascinating, desolate, desert place
For some, any genetic engineering too closely resembles eugenics, which for them is too closely related to Nazi Germany's "racial purity" goals. It may be a stretch technologically, but it is an issue emotionally.
Also, there is the 1950's sci-fi flick mutant spider factor.
It's been nearly thirty years since my visit to Trinity Site, but at the time there were signs all over the place warning of Bad Things that would happen to you if you so much as picked up a pebble.
Not hexadecimally enabled offspring, but real fines and/or imprisonment.
The "old-fashioned" way to archive photos is still probably the best: Make 3 B&W glass plate negatives of each image, one each through red, green, and blue filters.
They will last centuries, and when you need to recreate the image, just combine them using complementary filters.
Of course, it helps if you have a darkroom, storage space, and lots of spare time:)
Do Anglicans believe in transubstantiation?

It's the gas credit cards (Chevron, Amoco) that give me problems.
Nevertheless, if they did set up a separate advertising fund, I'd kick in $50 or so.
I can see the headline now: "Canada Invades Sao Tome, or will just as soon as they can locate it."

I suspect we "hobbyists" will be legislated out of existance within 5 years.

Yup. If he could start with something as mundane as typesetting and come up with TeX, just imagine what he could do with ERP :)

They'll get infusions of money from anti-FOSS interests until they lose in court and all their appeals have been exhausted.
The idea here is to get the sensor closer to the explosives. But I think building a sensor that will survive the penetration will be very difficult.
Absolutely brilliant.
For now. Wait a few years until the patent enforcement infrastructure is well established world-wide.
Unless it's a 'trusted' app. Find a hole in /usr/bin/su and you're home free.

Yup. I bet it was a disaffected not-so-smart one who invited the good guys in simply out of spite.
Given the ethics of spammers, is it any wonder that one of their own might "betray" them?

Hoc est enim cookie meum.
UNIX's man pages define its UI.
If independently implementing one is "reverse engineering", then so is the other. I don't think so.
If I had a nickel for every time I've said, "Damn, I wish I had a camera," I'd already have enough nickels to pay for the thing.
Their 1 megapixel version sold for $130, so it probably won't be too much more than that.
Maybe SC is betting that Lockheed & Boeing are too tied into meeting NASA's requirements to make commercially successful vehicles
