Could it be too much to ask, that this bus conform to an openly-specified standard, e.g., Wishbone?
I'm not saying it has to be Wishbone. I'm just thinking that it might be nice to avoid re-inventing the wheel. This could also have the side-effect of lowering the cost to the government (and the taxpayer who actually pays for it).
"You load sixteen tons, and what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt.
Saint Peter, don'tcha call me 'cause I can't go,
I owe my soul to the company store."
That song reflected the reality of tens of thousands of people in Appalachia.
Okay, it's more like the fake virus signatures that anti-virus vendors provide to let users test their products. "Click here to see if a virus alert pops up." I still think that could be a very useful tool for the SELinux crew. Probably they could integrate it into their automated tests.
Too bad I've already commented on this thread, or I'd mod that up.
But I'll also say that my mother runs Fedora 11, and the SELinux configuration is a lot better than in previous Fedora releases. The SELinux reports are all related to config files in her home directory, and those are carried over from previous Fedora installs. From what I can see, someone got a clue and cleaned up the general Fedora SELinux configuration in a big way.
Contact someone at SANS, or Bruce Schneier, or some such. Maybe even someone on the SELinux project; if this non-malicious malware is indeed as capable without SELinux as you claim, and SELinux mitigates/eliminates the danger, this could be good PR for them.
I stayed in a hole-in-the-wall town in February 2006. The motel had a fat-pipe kiosk in the main office. I was grateful to have it, because the cell phone service in the area was horrible.
With that much forward inertia, a wide enough net cast close enough to the boat would be impossible to avoid. Kind of like trying to miss the deer that just ran out in front of you. Never mind coming to a stop; can you even get your foot on the brake pedal before impact?
The "statement" from the "beleaguered" "head" is nothing more than a distraction.
From May 2008 comes this little tidbit (sorry about the formatting):

Right there is the reality of "deleted data" in clear violation of the FoIA.
The article is using a very short-view definition of "record", both in sense of "recorded data" and "record amounts". Every year mentioned for comparison is from less than a decade earlier.
Also, if they do have archaeological record of ice melt/freeze, how do the past 500 years compare, especially the year after Mt. Tabora exploded (1815)?
It may be a fallacy, but that doesn't mean it is never appropriate.
As a parallel counterexample, ad hominem is perfectly appropriate when Charles Manson is telling you that 1+2=3, and Barack Obama is married and has two daughters. You'd better seek some third-party verification.
When you figure in the special handling and storage required for hydrogen, as well as the proper and safe ventilation of the highly reactive oxygen, the energy cost incurred is still less than that of compressed air. These are not one-time expenses; they are ongoing, and must be figured into the actual energy cost.
And a vastly more efficient one, making this technology pointless.
Uh, no. Hydrogen power is a net loss, due to the greater energy consumed in currently-available hydrogen production methods. Yes, that may change in the future, but for now, even a solar panel on the garage powering an air compressor incurs less energy loss.
In the days of mechanical telephone switches, the telco swore up and down that my mother hadn't paid the bill. When they sent out the guy to carry out the disconnect order, he said she could make one last phone call. She showed him the canceled check and told him he could make it to his boss, or he could disconnect the phone and never show his face on the property again. He said sorry, lady, I got my orders.
The Nuremberg trials invalidated that excuse. (Aaaaand Godwin's Law is validated for this thread)
They tried to make nice later. Mom told them to leave, or face criminal trespass charges. And for the next 16 years, we made do with no telephone. Mom and Dad finally relented, post-Bell breakup, when we had two elderly grandparents who were taking turns being ill.
Now, four carrier buy-outs later, my parents are having "billing trouble" again while the new system owners figure out what the hell they're doing.

Is that specific to Metacity?
That works out to about $200 per machine. In what, electricity from no CPU idle?
Other than that, I don't see where S@H costs any more on a system than the resource hog called "Windows Vista".

There are two problems with that:
1. Conspiracy to commit a crime is still a crime, even if the conspirator(s) never go through with the plans.
2. Just because this email isn't deleted, doesn't mean none were deleted. (This is a converse accident fallacy.)

Fuzz testing can still be valid. Does the hockey stick still appear with range-limited random data (like, say, -10C to 40C)?
Eric Raymond says yes.

Treason is not the only capital crime. But I think the rest of his natural life in Fort Leavenworth might be more appropriate in this case.
It's a semantic difference. Crossing the English Channel isn't an intercontinental journey, and doesn't involve leaving the EU.
There's a wide gulf of difference between "transparency" and "nothing to see here, move along."
I wouldn't want to be in the middle of the Pacific Ocean when it suddenly got dark.
How well could a hybrid-energy airplane work? Would the solar cells provide more benefit in bright light than they would cost in fuel in the dark?
Then we send them a decoded copy of "To Serve Man."

And that's even less efficient than solar on the car itself. Remember, no energy conversion is 100% efficient. The fewer conversion stages the better.
You have such faith in the Federal Gov't. I wish I were still as naive as you.
To their shame. They took a lot of heat for it.
"Do no evil"? Oh, please.
