In the wake of the NSA scandals, you have all sorts of people who want to support their side (aka the good guys) and make sure the other side (aka the bad guys) don't score political points on them.
It's older than that: this is exactly how so many Obama supporters went from being pro-transparency, anti-wars, anti-Guantanamo, anti-torture, etc. to anti-transparency, pro-wars, pro-waterboarding. They have to support their "side" at all costs, even when it means reversing their opinions.
Yeah, that totally makes sense out of why Oracle keep hiring more MySQL devs and putting out new MySQL releases like those MySQL 5.7 previews or that MySQL Cluster 7.3 that had a GA release just yesterday.
So its nothing to get your panties in a twist over guys, you can decide to be a dumbass and trust old Monty again (seriously guys look at the MariaDB license again, old Monty has it set up so all the code belongs to him, no reason he can't sell it out from under you again) or you can go to one of the other SQL variants or hell, if you want you and some other devs can take the last GPL version of MySQL and fork it and make something better. Make it belong to the actual community so it can't be sold and get behind that like you did with Libre office, why not do that? But this is a tempest in a teapot, who cares, you have options galore.
Just started using 5 GHz myself. Works great here.
Note: This may have something to do with the fact that mine appears to the be only 5 GHz AP anywhere in the building. (Thank you, Telenor and ComHem!) Or not.
.... Legal liability. Those who fear being blamed for misuse of their public Wi-Fi signals are said to be protected under a "safe harbor" doctrine akin to that protecting Internet service providers. In other words, they're likely not liable for the mischief of porn purveyors or music pirates.
Say the weasel words, and Harpo will fly down with $100.
I can't and won't attempt to speak for BMO, but if you've really got the time to follow me around trying to discern my personal preferences from my Slashdot posts, then you undoubtedly know that I'm male, hetero, and lived for the past several years with a woman whom I plan to marry later this year.
As for BMO, yeah, I'm currently a fan of his, and what of it?
1. Floppy disk viruses were already commonplace, even without autorun.
2. I burned my first CD in 1997, using my Win95C desktop's built-in burner.
It took Microsoft better than a decade to put 1 and 2 together (to get 4, mind you--and they managed to be that close only because everybody was shouting the correct answer at them).
Slashdot editors themselves have unlimited mod points and use them to control this type of crap. Set your sliders to zero and you never see this because they mod them to oblivion instantly.
Your naïvété is touching.
Hey slashdot: How bout some sliders that actually work on Android!!
Next time you meet a bureaucrat thank them. They're people too, and they do good work.

An explorer on the other hand, has a vision first, and then moves heaven and earth to make it a reality.
Right, just like that Cristóbal Colón character.
(Those ships he got from the King and Queen of Spain didn't count for anything that really mattered.)

Al Franken. WTF?

Thanks for clearing that up!

Bingo. Give this man a cigar.

I liked it better when you were describing how to construct a really fancy air gap, myself.
Has this been tested in court?
If not, then, no, your ass is not covered.

Don't piss all over my jokes like a complete dumbass, then.

1. In case you missed it: I said "fanbois". I did not say "users".
2. In case you missed it: The OP is the one who brought up fellatio, not I.
Equating the lack of a penis with that of a functioning spinal cord is kinda messed up, don't you think?
And I wish people would learn to read what's written, and not be so presumptuous as to try to correct things that aren't wrong.
It made me laugh on a rainy Sunday morning. Cheers.
Awwww, I'm sorry your faith in the infallibility of BMO has been shaken.
'Tis human to make the occasional slip-up, and divine to make allowances for them, or to point such things out in a civilised manner.
Cretin.

You seem to think this is acceptable. I do not.
Autorun in The Year of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ Twenty-Thousand-And-Thirteen is beyond the pale.
I knew it'd be a long time before we had any chance of getting rid of Windows, but---18,000 years?
How very completely and utterly depressing.
...or you could "innovate" one for them. Perhaps you could call it, I dunno, a "Preview button", maybe.
I just love it when Windows fanbois project their sexual preferences onto others, don't you?
... It's simply too creepy and will have most people taking their STB back to the local office to get an older one with no camera.
You're saying that like it's a bad thing.
Thanks a lot, moderators, for encouraging this sociopath and his fucked-up worldview.

WFM in Opera and FF on multiple Android devices.
1. Whooooosh
2. Was I talking to you? No, I was not.
3. Have a day.
The oceans are mostly water. Nothing of interest there, I'm sure.
