Sorry, I'm not an american (nor a racist) so, I don't know much details about what different people do in US. I was just trying to make a joke w/ the fact that people going from LAC (not just Mexico) to USA isn't allowed in most cases, but everything else is permitted:-)
I'm sorry, but I think you didn't get the point. The point is: big players in the market are complaining about Microsoft bundling for free its own software w/ the most sold OS in the market, just to get the leadership for this kind of software.
Take the above statement and see how it fits for "browsers" (netscape) and "anti-virus". So, its not about "anti-virus", the kind of software you, as a good geek, don't use:-)

Oracle Linux?
·
· Score: 1
A company who buys Oracle products isn't concerned about paying 5k USD / year for support (for each product). They are more concerned in getting the less downtime and the better performance* as possible.
* try to convince a CIO that oracle isn't faster than mysql:-)
Let me just remind you something: internet is worldwide. Internet is not *american*. So, if online casinos would need US government license to operate (and pay taxes), so, should I presume that online casinos also need brazilian license and, of course, pay brazilian taxes?
Directly from the paper, specially to you: "It is important to note that the research presented in this paper discuss the possibility of identifying users based on their online behavior. However this 'identification' is still anonymous, and even perfect methods will only be able to indicate that some current session belongs to the 'same user' as some previous session. These methods cannot identify users by 'name'."
What you said makes complete no sense in regarding this story, this article and this paper:-)
Tell me the sites you visit, I'll tell you who you are:-) Basically, if your browsing habits changes based on news/services you read/consume, its very possible that users like you will change their behaviour too. I don't know the english term for that, but its something like the "standard deviation". So, the answer is: it should have *no* effect in false positives. False positives will always exists, but if you are the target for some product/service, and this product/service detects a change in your behaviour, probably other people in the target were affected too, causing the "standard" to be changed, not you:-)
Read the full paper. Its very interesting. As stated in the paper, people can be distinguished by their handwriting, by their fingerprints, etc etc. New studies states that people can be distinguished by their mouse movements, strokes in a keyboard (the time between strokes in two different keys). Even their usual movements in a city can be tracked by a handheld device and used to distinguish people. This paper is just another way to distinguish people: the way people browse the internet. I'm sure I'm the only one here at the company who visits slashdot about 4 times / day in almost always the same hours of the day, visits http://thedailywtf.com/ once a day at about 8pm GMT, opens http://google.com/ig every hour and check the news in http://www.terra.com.br/ every X hours.
Imagine that being used by a bank. If an account owner usually checks the statement, read the selected news about investments and then start making payments and transfers, an alert (and maybe an extra security check) could be done if the user suddenly changes the behaviour. If someone that claims to be the account owner logs in and instantly transfers 1M to another account, something is very strange:-)
I can easily live without my emails. Actually, my would be far better without emails. Why do we have phones?:-)
I don't know about you, but 60% of my emails are spam. And 35% are automatic emails sent by stupid machines, telling me that I've deployed an application to some server (or informing me about a commit, or...). So, only 5% of them are *actually* messages that worth reading. And, to be honest, its easier to just give a call to explain a problem or to ask for something.
To be honest? I'd prefer FCKEditor on a simple web page than OO Writer. OO Writer tries to do everything on all platforms, and it became heavily bloated. I didn't used the version 2, but my experience w/ OO1 is worse enough to keep me faaar away from OO.org:-)
Maybe, because you use one computer at work, and other at home, and don't want to keep "files" everywhere? I replaced MS Excel w/ Google Spreadsheets since the first invites were sent, and I'm very happy. I'm not a power spreadsheets user, but it fully fits my needs:-)

The reason it wasn't launched yet is because they are still trying to get a visa or work-permit to the telescope.

"But the individuals affected by the order may be unable to set foot in the U.S. for the rest of their lives, even to change planes."
Is it supposed to be bad?
I still think this came from North Korea. It's about the time for them to start demonstrating what they learnt this year.
Ops, 1.5m, not 1.5b... I read that wrong. Ok, just a bunch of zeros :P
Don't they have *anything* better to do w/ that money?
Or zero (visible) pages of Whitespace if you are a Real Clever Programmer.
Yeah, I realized that by reading a lot of comments here :-) Its probably more like this:

$ cp source target ; rm -rf source
(actually, I think mv does exactly this, but just to be explicit
ROTFLMAO PMP
Man, you are simply insane =D
Translating...
Its not a:
$ mv source target
Its a:
$ cp source target
Oh Gosh, now I fully know quantum computing!

Darn... For the first time, I thought brazilians were doing something original :-(
pffff... Only americans needs the "master password". Some time ago, in Sao Paulo/Brazil, criminals were stealing the entire ATM (no, I'm not joking).
Don't get me wrong, but I expect not to receive a call from you :-)

Or even better! We can replace those stupid humand by really smart pigeons, just like google!
You just can't do that when you work in a bank :-(
