If there needs to be a truly reliable paper trail to audit, why even bother with e-voting? At that point the only difference I can see is whether you push a pencil through paper or push a button, and one is far less trustworthy. Quicker tabulation can't be worth that much to the lazy voting public, can it?
They are saying there will be no mod tools at launch; judging by Bethesda's past record of releasing excellent Elder Scrolls Toolkits, I'm banking on Fallout 3 tools being released within six months of launch.
I guess no flat earth theorist has ever been in an airplane on a clear day. The curvature of the Earth is clearly visible. Hell, you can even see it at sea, though it's far more subtle.
I don't understand this planet sometimes; didn't Eratosthenes prove all this well enough in antiquity?
What about computer viruses and worms? Some people argue that those are life, especially worms which are able to reproduce in their environment independently without a host.
Without a host? I've never seen viruses exist anywhere in nature except within the confines of a Computer.
Everyone needs to grow the hell up, here. Nobody seems to care about this stuff unless it's a huge Tech company. I don't see huge 744 post outcries over "Employees flipping burgers have shitty jobs, denied overtime", do I?
I use Trac. I also use it for the wiki functionality, and Milestone features. Good piece of software, if it's what you're looking for. Pity the Auth wasn't cleaner.
This is exactly the reason I embrace free software. Unfortuntately, the Debian project let me down with its OpenSSL fiasco. I'm not sure WHERE I stand, now.
While git is an excellent and fast version control program, it suffers from a huge flaw: it DOES NOT WORK tolerably on Windows. For projects like the linux kernel, and most FOSS applications, this isn't a huge problem, but in a heterogenous work environment, this is a large, critical problem.
They were only reviewing application servers, blame the article summary. Though incidentally: Tomcat and Geronimo are the Apache Foundation's, and JBoss is Red Hat's. Big enough names?
I have a WRT54G myself, and even considering the notorious "three day connection keepalive", I can count the number of restarts I've required on two hands. That said, I highly recommend putting Tomato on it.
Not that anyone on Slashdot would think that was patent-worthy, either. :)

Holy shit, a proper use of the phrase "begged the question!" Someone give this man a cookie.
No, Google states that the change should be considered retroactive.
Microsoft Update has periodic monthly tools that are supposed to give the user a feeling of security.
Interesting. Far more interesting to me, however, is speculating on how botnets quadrupled in the part three months.
You mean Debian's broken Random Number Generator?
No, the bug is unrelated, and has to do with X11 forwarding in SSH tunnels. It's considered low severity.

Good on YouTube, good on Google!
Fuck you, chilling effect.
Not really a shock.
One company's based on ubiquity and mindshare. The other's the same though less so, but actually retails physical items.
Meh, at least their kernel panics are informative. It's a different design decision, not a bad one.
The ROC and the PRC both govern the same land, why bother making a distinction at all? ;)
...so because nobody one the FOSS side has implemented fsck.ntfs-3g, it's Microsoft's problem?

I thought the bcm4xxx project did a substantial portion of black box reverse engineering?
Or is that not the Broadcom you mean?

Money is the only language Microsoft speaks. :)
The fact that they're giving some can't ENTIRELY be frowned on.

What we're not telling you is that Slashdot was behind the hit... :)

Neither has to worry as much about what people think of them; both lost their chance at Presidency, for now.
