I'd say PostgreSQL is more likely to be "plays back into the hands of the traditional behemoths that dominate the industry" since it's under the BSD license instead of something like MySQL.
There is no point to this. It's pure marketing. It'll get their name in the press, it'll get people to their site. Their stock price will go up, people will click their ads.
Considering (according to the Slashdot story, which doesn't mean much) Internet Archive is behind it, I would assume it's legit. That's what Archive.org does; Store stuff.
Internet bandwidth cost money, as does placing real calls over VoIP. Not to mention the actual costs of one of these base stations. Someone has to pick up the tab.
I don't know much about Flickr, but I don't think it's a blog company. They deal with images, I thought. You upload them, people view them. Right?
Although I do agree that blogs are just a fad.

No, but that's the great part of open source! You get to add them yourself!!! See how wonderful that is? And the best part, if it's under the GPL, you'll have to give it all back to the community! See how open that force is?!
(Yes, yes. I know what I said about the GPL isn't 100% true)
Windows XP came out in about 2000/2001, as did Red Hat 7.0. Put them both up on a network, unpatched and unfirewalled, and both will get hacked quickly. OS has nothing to do with it; It's all about the patch level.
Now go back to the bridge you crawled out from under, you troll!!!
This is getting modded as funny? Are you joking? It's a clear troll. Replace "windows" with "linux" and it would have been modded down faster than GNAA.
Nintendo's gimmicks is innovation, it has the game. Next-gen Nintendo, I know there will be good games: Zelda, Mario, and friends. With PS3 and Xbox Next, there'll be GTA (which I'm sick of since I never payed attention to the story anyway) and Halo (which I never liked). Beyond that, it's up for grabs.
Nintendo has the games, the others have the gimmicks.

Quick! Try and use above 1GB of storage! If you can't, we can sue them for false advertisement!!! We might have to go to France to do it, though.
That's why God invented USB: So you can plug stuf into other stuff.
This device doesn't really allow for plug-and-play networking.
Projecting forward to what Google or Windows will be like in 2015 is like trying to track a flea through a hurricane.
Simple: The flea is on the dog in the hurricane. Duh!
I agree and I'd mod you up if I could.

That doesn't discount that someone has to pay for it.

Okay, so Google puts everything without having people paying for it. Google gets sued for the obvious copyright violation and shut down. Great plan.
There's the real world, and then there's your messed up vision of the world.
That was a 90s movie, you fool.
The system is designed well. You just can't steal information from it, which is a design goal.

Apache's config is hierarchical. It's a natural for a filesystem-based configuration.

I'm tired of the people who have orgasms over the latest nVidia or ATI graphics cards. Gameplay does beat graphics, hands down.

How was that flamebait?
Don't feed the trolls, sir.
Sure, it cost them $1,000, but it's going to get their name in the press.
That was me. Forgive me.
