...didn't 'come' from Europe, but live in Europe. And they don't have much to do with colonialism either.
White people in the US may be different, but i guess many of them went to the US near WWII, which also has nothing to do with their history of colonialism.
I think it isn't much of a privacy problem to detect radioactivity in the wild. When people do this on their own with their own crappy tools and the authorities wanted to regulate that, everyone was saying 'uh oh'. Now, when it turns out the authorities do it with state of art machinery, everyone goes 'uh oh' again. Hey, when Joe the Concerned Neighbour did it to you, he didn't tell you either!
The article says that Steve Job's evil ways are still useful in cranking out a product which people (like you) will buy. You as customer don't really care if people died during the process. I think, that his way is successful as long as there are many similar bosses, but when his workforce tends to drift away, you will be left without your Mac. And then, you might give a crap about Jobs, or just buy something else.
Primarily I use linux because it is safer. I had dual boot since the beginning, but for a long time i didn't even dare to browse the net from M$ win (for a while i even plugged the network cable, but it got worn out, so i just removed the network services). This was the time of Code Red/Sasser, etc.
On the other hand: It was really fun when i had to edit some kernel files just to make it compile, though it was fun only the first time. Same about the manual upgrading of packages.
Linux is also less resource hungry, at least compared to Vista. I still keep XP, just for the games, so, i'm sure i don't use Linux just for the fun. I keep XP just for the fun (uhm, ok, and for MSVC 6).
M$ office 2007 is soooo familiar to earlier Office versions. No, thanks. I would rather use OO, not because it is cheaper, but because it is more familiar.
Those are most likely server machines, permanently on the net, with many open ports sitting in universities or ISP's unattended. A typical desktop linux won't stay on the net and doesn't listen on many ports. So, yeah, linux is still safer than windows, despite some not well secured servers are cracked and used as bot controller.
You know what? I don't care. If a toddler calls police repeatedly onto innocent people, i don't mind if that toddler is shot. Along with its parents. You can also apply the reverse of this argument up to an age of 100 years (where they are usually the same responsible as a toddler). So what?

You can have your gamut in just 16 colours (by removing all colours inside it). Shrinking to 18 bits from 24 bits does something like that.
Wow, something that is written in Java, runs on Linux. *CHEER*
Oh, well, it isn't compatible with GNU Java, but it runs on Linux *duh*
Shouldn't it be default that something written in Java runs on ALL platforms which got a JRE?
When you hear Apple and music, whom do you think of now?

It is vultures descending on a carcass.
Rest assured, they'll send it back in one form or another.
In this case Network Solutions is what i would call dangerous to western freedom.
I meant crappy tools. If a supersensitive ionic induction Geiger counter is crappy for you, then yeah.

The little gnome in the machine made a slight error. So what?

I go with try Eniac.
Well, don't nitpick the word, TPB also picked it up.
Wouldn't it sound worse if they are called The Intellectual Property Infringers' Bay?

And they usually don't apply lie-detectors on you.

Don't opt for using Facebook --> No problems.
I'm not interested in the Super Bowl, nor am I an executive :)
Hopefully the spammers will develop better bots which target only those.

Or people shall start migrating from Dynadot?
The elf loader loads non gpl software INTO the kernel?
We won't live to see Darwin's statue, but this is a start!

So, it is more like for private people than institutions.
