Subversion is obsolete, superceded by distributed version control systems like git, bzr, and many others. I use git even when working with svn repositories, such is the usefulness of its added functionality. Regardless, even git has shortcomings that I can notice, such as a lack of UI support for diffing and managing formats other than text files. There's plenty of room for improvement in this area, and room for integration with undo functionality in conventional document editing applications.
Probably a better choice than a netbook, since it's closer to cell phone size. Battery life is probably still an issue, however. I'm also not sure how possible it is to obtain one anymore, so you probably shouldn't procrastinate.
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>mv utorrent.exe explorer.exe 'mv' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I second this, my N800 can surf the web, play music and videos, view documents, make SIP calls, and run arbitrary (free!) Linux applications that people port to the platform (i.e. torrent client, pidgin, mplayer, Gnumeric..), with no approval necessary from Nokia, and yet when I'm not in class with the thing taking notes and using the Internet, my main use for it is to read books on the bus or when killing time for whatever reason. In the last four months alone, I've read over 500 pages of the OpenGL Red Book on it. I highly recommend an N810 to users who want an inexpensive, non-crappy alternative to the iPod Touch.
Net Neutrality, however, is explicitly the case where an ISP prioritizes or degrades traffic based on whether or not the external site has paid them money.
That case violates network neutrality, but the issue of money is irrelevant. Generally, it's a good idea to do research before lecturing others, so that you don't end up telling someone that they're wrong, when really they are right, and you are wrong.
Here are two example definitions of net neutrality from [1] and [2]:
If I pay to connect to the Net with a certain quality of service, and you pay to connect with that or greater quality of service, then we can communicate at that level.
A neutral broadband network is one that is free of restrictions on content, sites, or platforms, on the kinds of equipment that may be attached, and on the modes of communication allowed, as well as one where communication is not unreasonably degraded by other communication streams.
It would be a very bad idea to store anything important in either of those systems. This could mean that nobody cares about version control system integration (which is clearly not the case), but what it really tells me is that LyX is very under-maintained.
maemo (on N800, N810) lets you pop up a full screen virtual finger keyboard that is pretty fast to type on, though the screen gets a bit dirty as a result. With the N810, there's a real keyboard, too, which is even better, I guess (I only have an N800, which was $200). I wouldn't get an iPod for browsing the web, especially if flash support is desired. For those who aren't following the tablets closely, however, it seems safe to predict that Nokia will be releasing a new version in about 3-5 months, based on the state of the next maemo release, and how long it's been since the N810 came out.
You don't get five nines out of a machine that can't access its storage, either, so I don't see what your point is, unless your suggestion is that the machine in question should be left to gather dust.
Not costing you money (lots of it, as far as I can guess) is also relevant when choosing a file server, especially when you can get Linux distributions for free that have had the capability to do a "minimal install" for as long as they've existed. Surely even a very Windows-centric company can manage to meet their file serving needs using Samba.
This isn't true if you know what you're doing. No matter how badly you think you messed up your local copy, you can always run a command like git-reflog show --all, and find a "lost" commit, and then tag it or check it out or something. The commit objects aren't destroyed until they expire or you run git-prune or something, so you have lots of time to find something you lost track of.
I really want to hear what you would recommend as a wholesale replacement for Java. I'm pretty sure I don't know of anything that's as broadly applicable.
Try C++, which seems to get much less attention than it should. It's undeniably faster than Java, but equally good at creating usable abstractions.

The above seems to be exactly what the OP is looking for, in a $300 package, complete with 2.8Ghz x86 CPU and supposedly running a respin of Ubuntu 8.10. It's a bit large, though.
For crying out loud, doesn't everyone use version control yet? when done right, it provides a clear record of the development history in addition to being a backup.
It would probably be better to send only the tracker traffic through tor, since that is very light traffic, and use encryption on the rest of the traffic. I'm not sure if that would be enough to fool the inspection software, but if you ever test it and find out, feel free to post a reply to this message with your results, I would want to know.

How many people have you heard of that wake up in the morning and read all day until 3AM the next morning, only stopping for meals and potty breaks?

Did the author of this sentence stop and consider that someone, somewhere, might have had the same idea before last year's Akademy?

What's wrong with that?

A lack of time or interest is less likely to cause the contributor to feel a moral dilemma the way this situation has.
Ignoring one's conscience in exchange for money is the definition of selling out. It has nothing to do with copyright or license infringement.
Apparently, you see no shame in selling out.
The shame isn't from taking paid work, it's because the work comes with terms that remove his ability to continue to contribute code to a project.

Yes, but if all lawyers were good lawyers (crazy, I know), wouldn't the problem fix itself?
