The web of trust is fine if you are using caching properly, and arn't looking up trust every 5 seconds. On the actual web, you will likely be seeing a lot of strain.
unless too many investors bail out prematurely, of course.
You answered yourself. Such doom/gloom FUD encourages investors to flee, bringing the FUD to fruition. I wouldn't be surprised to discover that Intel was connected to a lot of this kind of news.
Which is funny, because this is only the video parts of it. You can put your own music to this. Take their data, models, etc and go do something completely unrelated with it if you want. It's art, man.
My question is how the hell that works? Why is it even possible to do that!?
Data comes in, gets split into an audio stream and a video stream. You look at the magical tags and figure out which decoder to fire up. Feed compressed data into the decoder, get decompressed data out. Pass the video data to the display pipeline, and the audio data to the audio pipeline.
There should be no way to execute anything from those pipelines.
Then suse is probably not for you. You should try something like Slackware (slamd64 is a good amd64 port) if you need that kind of flexibility/control.
Hell, if you tried hard enough, I'm sure you could port YaST to Slackware!
The "features" that this firmware enables that were not present in the official firmware..
These are not features. If your hardware can read the disc, then the manufacturer specifically disabled the ability to read from writable media. This firmware disables a form of DRM.
That said, I agree wholeheartedly with the intent of this firmware!
Then your real solution is to buy the computer, and fight for a refund for the preinstalled OS. Claim you do not agree with the ELUA. They HAVE to take it back.
Of course, if you could get a machine with no OS installed, the above point would be moot.
"It's difficult to come up with a faux urine, explained NASA's Jim Lewis, the systems manager overseeing development of Orion's potty. 'That's why we depend on collections.'"
Yes, I'm pretty sure they did.
In any case.. is it possible to keep all the potty jokes in one thread please? Holy crap this is out of control...
Keeping something at the LaGrange point is probably just as difficult as balancing a marble on top of another marble. You have to fight drift - and the further you drift the more gravity you are effected by.
or, format your drives as Ext2 (or 3, really the only difference is the journal) and install Ext2 IFS on windows. Works fairly well!

When the kernel is done it loads/sbin/init. This is changable - it doesn't HAVE to run that. This could be some kind of shell, but usually init goes and starts services, configures hardware, starts networking, etc.
I haven't taken the time to do the research yet, but it sounds like what you are talking about isn't closed-source in the kernel so much as it's the ability to "plug-in" closed-source bits into one. But I can't say I have the time to go digging right now.

Can you post a CID link to that? I want to follow it but I can't find it on the userpage you linked to.

Because I really have the time or want to work with a hand-installed package system, and build all the packages myself.
The idea is that you TRUST the vendor. If you don't trust them, why the hell would you use their software at all?

Are you sure it's synthetic? I think it would be hilarious to run a business on the premise of selling filtered/conditioned/treated urine.

Offtopic: why is it that almost all joysticks are shit now?
Garbage in, slightly-more garbage out.

Yes, because I want to live in a module that has residues from goodies like hydrazine all over the place.
This sense no make. Again post try?
Um. No? (somewhere, a PC explodes)
Me either! Then I can grind with MORE mouse clicks!
Oh my god... there are just no words for this. Please tell me this isn't actually spelled out like that!
I'll take my keyboard sans-flag, please!
Support some non-Microsoft filesystems for $DEITY's sake! No hidden magical APIs that nobody outside of Redmond knows about!
No "Windows 7 Certified" bullshit on products that have no connection to the OS.
I saw a "Vista Certified" monitor. WTF!

Well, then it would take you the same time to post the relevant info here rather than putting me (and anyone following this) on a goose chase.
