They're building one in Nevada that can pump out the MWs for 10 hours without direct sunlight. The whole facility only puts out 110 MW, however. So about 10 of these will replace the average nuke site.
That's right! Businesses care about Profanity Hardened Kernels when the kernel would be used on a desktop. Everything else is a-oh-kay. Cars, supercomputers, servers, printers, routers, phones, tablets, cameras, toasters, Large Hadron Colliders, space stations... There's no business in any of that so PHK doesn't matter there.
However, on the desktop, it really matters. Fuck you Linus!!!!! Your potty mouth alone is what holds back Linux on the desktop!!!! It's the only market Linux sucks at and it's the only market businesses care about. The corollary is clear.
Linus, grow up. Bite your tongue and pick up a chair like a professional. Also when you're on stage if you could scream and run around a bit, that would help too. It's how professionals act.
The whole reason for not disclosing is to prevent the bad guys from knowing about it. The words "actively exploited" means the bad guys know about it. Ergo there's no reason not to disclose it. Waiting seven days is not too short because it's pointless to wait at all under said circumstance.
The whole reason for restricting disclosure is to prevent that situation that is already happening for anything in the "already being exploited" category. Waiting 7 days is pointless.
I've always wondered why the controversy wasn't over which name should be first. I like "Linux/GNU" because it makes it easier to continue the chain. You know to give EVERYONE credit. I mean, can't you see what this evolves into?

Oh for all that is sane and holy! It's not Konqueror! It's Linux/GNU/X.ORG/QT/KDE/KHTML/Konqueror!!!
In my experience they can and do suddenly stop working at random. Once they stop selling them you'll have maybe 2 years and then have no choice but to switch because those fucking things don't last that long. Both MS and anyone who's not a brainwashed tool knows it. If you want to continue to play the same games, you'll have to buy them yet again.
I'll stick with Steam, thank you very much. I have games for PC that still play just fine from over 10 years ago. And yes, playing video games for graphics is like watching porn for plot and acting.
which is only available for Android, iOS, and Chrome
If I have to use Chrome to use g+ features then fuck off. And that goes for any service that requires a specific browser. Fuck you and your closed protocols. You are IE6 to me now.
LD is documented over several man pages. The 'environment' section of http://linux.die.net/man/8/ld-linux might contain the information you so desperately want to not exist.
Want a --->real world <--- example? UT2004 ships with its own libstdc++.so.5, openal.so, libSDL-1.2.so.0 binaries. It's self contained within it's own directory tree. It doesn't drop files in any binaries into any system system directory. It's worked just fine despite the fact that I've changed distributions gone through many many system upgrades, and etc. over the years. I just copied the ut2004 directory from one system to another and ran it. Worked fine many years ago, still works fine today (completely unmodified) despite the "drastic" changes in distributions I've gone through.
If you look at the ut2004 launcher script that comes with it you'll see the following lines:
Check the current dir, check some UT2004 dir, then check whatever the distribution has set up. It's been in the "just works" category for a long time now.
They could have packaged it in.deb,.rpm,.pkg.tar.xz, or what ever package manager you fancy and still be self contained without the need for a new package format.
And even with system libraries we don't have nearly the "dll hell" that we've seen on Windows. The msvcrt.dll vs msvcrt.dll hardly exists on Linux. Unlike Windows where the ABI changes between msvcrt.dll and msvcrt.dll when the ABI changes on Linux so does the file name. It's some.so.1 vs some.so.2. Failing that you can do the same thing application developers on Windows do: ship with your own library version.
Linux is good for servers, and that's it.
We have a new hairyfeet, I see. I'm sorry, you're wrong, and there's nothing anyone can do to help you.
I see a lot of people saying "at first I didn't like it, then I still didn't like it. I saw Gnome getting better and went there." I don't think change is the definitive problem with Unity.
I think "people don't like change" and "can't please everyone" are cop outs. It's they're catch phrases that stick because they sound like plausible excuses. It's also known as "spin."

I'd like to see more of these finger pointing exchanges. It means we're no longer debating the existence of the problem which is a step forward.
I've thrown fuel on such fires around the Internet just to reinforce the notion that it's such a big deal that blame needs to be assigned.
This is why businesses choose Microsoft.

Oh, look who's back. I knew you couldn't quit, junky.
I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further. [mechanical breathing noise]

If your OS doesn't suck that 14GB left over will be used for cache. So, it's not a complete waste.
Thanks for pointing that out; 829820 < 1233886. I clearly had the right to be harsher on you, heathen. :P
You don't understand. The summary said "only." Here on Slashdot we celebrate only having read the summary and flying off the handle.

The fact that they have to promise up-front not to "ruin" something, I think, speaks for itself.
"Crazy" seems to be working just fine.
Hasn't that been played out yet?
Nope. Trolls echo forever.
Then why do so many Java programs require specific JVM versions? They literally won't run on newer Javas.

Just watch out for Google and Facebook. They've been known to copy that floppy and sell it around, if you know what I mean.
You clearly know nothing of Mozilla's goals, troll.
Probably because it's a lot of work to maintain the underlying $ervice$.
