If you are worried about governments, the problem is not disrupting the satellites at all, the weak link is the ground station which by definition resides in somebody's territory.
The weak part is the satellites. You have to launch them or their replacements from somebody's territory which is going to a whole lot less countries than what you can stick ground stations in. I imagine in addition, the ground station will be cheap and fairly easy to hide, assuming anyone needs to do that.
There's a technical solution to this political problem: figure out how to launch such payloads from water, and do so outside the bounds of any national power.
I've seen plenty of mobile devices (some that the company I work for has made) that use the convention, but are most decidedly NOT Linux. As far as specifics go, my old first-gen Motorola RAZR did - if memory serves me correct.
/dev and/etc are part of the filesystem hierarchy standard, not Linux. Anyone can use them, and Linux does not HAVE to use them - you can move these locations (if you wanted to for some reason).
... unfortunately lines 9-11 pretty much spell it out:P
Also note that the only valid version of the GPL as far as the kernel is concerned is _this_ particular version of the license (ie v2, not v2.2 or v3.x or whatever), unless explicitly otherwise stated.
That's funny. Because all the services this flimsy 'disguise' provides are exactly why I use it and plan to continue using it. That it's DRM by side-effect I might not like, but it's not enough to make me discontinue it's use.
Why can't they just make it a web service? Well, this is a good question - but the patching and additional content delivery (eg DLC) would need to be implemented in client-side plugins... at which point you are just about right were we are now.
So I got that you read my first statement. You appear to have stopped reading at that point. If you had continued on to read my second statement, you would find that I already agree with you.
Also, with regard to age complexity, don't forget that most Koreans literally don't know how to say "forty years old" or older because the numbering system used for ages is only for sequential counting (there's a different numbering system for things which are not always sequential). When necessary, they'll use the other (Chinese-derived) numbering system for ages above 39, but generally will simply avoid talking about it.

No, it's not a state-owned car.
What? That doesn't make any sense to me.
Unless you're saying the equivalent of moving /bin/ to /Program\ Files/ opening you to patent liability?

It's not really a good indicator for this.
That you've ever noticed. I think the onus of "not knowing how to use your computer" falls on you, bud.

Incorrect. Please refer to lines 314 and 315.
DRM or trojan, take your pick. I'll go with the DRM, unless it was published by Sony.

1. Disconnect
2. Install from Disk
3. In game properties, uncheck 'keep this game updated'
4. Reconnect
5. 'Enjoy' your buggy unpatched game
SafeNames? Yea, not a price to be found on their site... unless it's behind the Account Wall.
Fuck that. They want my business, then give me some prices and less 'feel good' PHB fluff text.
Much fun to be had by de-authing an existing client and spamming WPS with their MAC, thus booting them off for whatever the cooldown period was.
Oops?
You might like OpenBox. Might not be enough of a difference from Fluxbox to bother changing, but check it out if you have not already.
including the gatekeepers (like the build team) who otherwise enjoy telling people why their special request can't be done.
You mean it lets management force poor ideas down the development team's collective throat?
Wow... that is quite special!

I'd like to think innocent shortages of clues. Emphasis on like.
That's not what ADK means. ADK is the Android Development Kit.
It is. Most cars have the hood release inside the (presumably) locked cabin... and are hooked up to an alarm system.
I agree with your sentiment; I just could not resist shooting at your analogy!
Servers will cry if you access them via IP when they are doing name-based virtual hosts (eg pretty much anything that isn't dedicated to one domain)
Yes, and unfortunately you are as well.

That's just... wow... what the hell.
Not if Uncle China has anything to say about that...
Independent clauses. Do you have them?
