I *do* believe that Mono and Moonlight, in their current guise, are trojans Oh, yeah. Interoperability is just terrible.
The CLR is a better framework than anything else out there, and whining about that because Microsoft came up with it is completely retarded. If Java didn't suck, I'd use that--but it does, and.NET/Mono win big in the "not sucking as much as Java" category.
Knee-jerk fear of Mono being used to enforce patents later is ignorant of the legal system; Microsoft has promised that they will not engage in legal action against those reimplementing the.NET BCL and other.NET libraries for interoperability's sake, and thanks to estoppel, they can't win any such legal action.
and while I like many parts of this new release I know a few others who have already renamed "awesome bar" into "annoying bar" Go get oldBar. It makes the bar look like the FF2 bar, while retaining the improved search of FF3.
I write open-source code because I enjoy others being able to use my code (and it doesn't hurt that I get paid for it). I don't use it for "security"; as we've seen in the Debian OpenSSL debacle, that doesn't always work.
The people who go "How do you know? Have you seen the source code?" almost invariably don't audit the code at all. Furthermore, there are cases of source code not even being enough--I am reminded of a nifty story about Ken Thompson's login hack.
Did you even bother to read the grandparent post?
The only part of it I use actively is the bookmarks sync, which is, although slightly buggy, very useful
The President (or Presidential candidate) is the de facto head of the party. If he says "we are doing this," they'll do it or risk looking even worse off than they usually do.
Not all were captured in Afghanistan or Iraq. That kind of shoots a hole in your assumption. Furthermore, of those who were captured in Afghanistan or Iraq, it's becoming obvious that at least some were informed upon by neighbors who simply wanted reward money, not because they actually did anything.
And we do not treat them even as well as we have treated Nazis in the past. Don't give me that crap about treating them "fantastically well." If they were being treated "fantastically well," Bush et al. would not have them in a place where U.S. law "doesn't count" (though it obviously does), yes?
Fucking neoconservatives. Give me my Republican Party back.
You can't have enemy combatants who don't fight under the direction of a nation. By definition, they are criminals. And since they aren't prisoners of war, they do not fall under the UCMJ as soon as they ended up on what is essentially U.S. soil (Gitmo counts).
Stop listening to the Ashcroft/Gonzales/Bush bullshit and think.
The Republican Party's party bosses are busy shitting themselves over McCain getting nominated (by the people, god forbid, instead of by them). Regardless of who wins, I'm pretty sure things will turn around fairly quickly on this count.
Oh. Almost forgot. This case deals specifically with habeas corpus, yes, but the long-held legal opinion is that the writ of habeas corpus is a part of the Fifth Amendment. Hence the (correct) majority opinion.

And people complain about Microsoft's Linux FUD, but they're cool with Novell FUD? That's funny.
I would say that they give a lot more than the Ubuntu project.
.NET 3.0 isn't supported by Mono yet. Hence the problem, probably.
Oh. One other thing.
Why would Mono be bad when Samba and WINE are good?

So...install KDE3? You have to go out of your way to download KDE4.
Whoosh.
Whoosh!
Are you retarded? It's a license that allows for downgrades. It's not bundling.
Stupid slashtard is stupid.
I'm curious: what makes XP "downhill" from 2000? Because I used both, and XP feels like a cleaner version of 2000 (once you turn off theming, anyway).
Who really cares about the record attempt? Seriously, this is all kinds of dumb.
Spot-on.

That's not Bruce Perens. Note the . in front of the name.
Linux is buzzwordy, mostly.
So what other bookmark-sync should I switch to?

How dare they follow the Constitution! Those dirty bastards!

Supreme Court justices can be impeached. Samuel Chase was.
Please don't lump conservatives in with these bastards. I'm a conservative. I've been saying "wait, this is bullshit" since day one.
Neoconservative fuckwits are not conservatives.

Obama and the economy...not so sure. But meh.
But what about the ones who are innocent of wrongdoing?
Oh, wait, they're brown, you can go right ahead and kill 'em.
