God? Sure. Santa? Not yet.
Since god is proposedly everywhere, it was easy for them to disprove once they had lift-off.
A crazy old man in a flying sled? Do you have any idea what the odds are of that guy being within visible range of another flying vessel in the earth's atmosphere? Slim to none, my friend. Therefore, the grandparent's theory about presents being present could still theoretically be proven correct.
I was under the impression that "Refused rating, effectively banning the game" simply meant what the U.S. sees as the walmart effect - unrated games aren't sold by popular stores.
Is it actually illegal in Australia to sell a game which is unrated? That seems a bit excessive to me.
Two additions to this: # sshd -V
will tell you the version of your server (which may or may not be the same as your client version, depending on the packaging habits of your distro maintainers etc.)
Furthermore, the fix for this vulnerability was included in Version 5.2 of OpenSSH, so the grandparent poster could still be vulnerable. The article's mention of version 4.7 is somewhat misleading in this respect.
I have it on good authority (my father is always right, you see) that 'the internet' is that little blue 'e' on the desktop. Obviously, the performance of 'the internet' and the performance of 'the computahr' have to be connected somehow.
the whole things falls apart because no one contributes to the development cost, the software won't get written (because it's too easy for people to rip-you off), and society is worse-off for the it's selfishness on an individual level.
Now, I agree that commercial software has brought some pretty radical innovations in software, but surely everyone on/. knows of people who write software intended to be free and for free.
9. But how will artists be rewarded for their work without copyright?
Firstly, even if copyright were the only way that artists could be rewarded for their work, then I would contend that freedom is more important than having professional artists (those who claim that we would have no art do not understand creativity: people will always create, it is a compulsion, the only question is whether they can do it for a living).
Now that we allow the record companies and their kin to run their own prvate police force, it's only a matter of time before the lawmakers realize how f*cked up that really is.
The answer, of course, is to give that power to the actual police in stead.
How do you do that?
That's something I theorized a few years ago; They will raise the upper limit of punishment for copyright infringement to levels which allow the police to engage in, for example, wiretapping (I believe that limit is reasonable suspicion of crimes warranting 4 years in prison at the moment).
Hey, presto! Since just about everyone in the country can be accused of copyright infringement, they now have a listen-to-your-communications-free card for ~9M people.

If I were this developer I'd see about installing a heaping helping of malware onto their iPhone.
Yes, because as we all know it is impossible for a piracy detector to throw a false positive (i.e. flag a legitimate user as a pirate). Right? Right?

Well, if you're surfing the whitespace-powered web using links, what did you expect?

And do you think Microsoft will allow Acer, Asus, etc. to sell their ARM netbooks that much cheaper? Seriously?
America? Fuck yeah!
Madness? This is the UK!
...in other words, the guys who decide on these things haven't even gotten warmed up yet.
Do you really not see the difference?
That's not it at all! To get the slashdot crowd to understand your argument, you just need to rephrase it to a more familiar syntax:
$library =~ /(sale)+/ /(sale)?/
$pirate =~
See? To a publisher, the difference between a library and a pirate is like the difference between the + and ? quantifiers!

This has already been proven for software.
Yes, but then you would not be able to eat at *our* McDonalds.
Really? Thanks!
Or smoke *our* fine cigarettes.
No problem.
And you would have to stop pirating all of our movies. The price is just to steep for you.
Did that a long time ago.
Now that that's all straightened out, will your country please stop meddling in my country's affairs?
Don't worry, this is going away in Sweden too.

There was that one quorum of twelve on TV a while back that was brutally slaughtered during a violent mutiny.
This sort of shenanigans makes me think that was pretty cool!
Sie = you, respectful sie = she
"Do you have a jelly donut", not "does she have a jelly donut"
You're perfectly correct about the correction, but wouldn't that last sentence be Hat sie ein Berliner?
That's right, ladies and gentlemen! We've now moved on to being grammar nazis of german!
Great idea! Let's name the others "Mickey", "Minnie", and "Pluto"
So this is like a name association game? Cool!
Pluto -> "Saturn", "Mars", "Tellus", "Uranus"
What's the next series?
How do they keep the power button hot (you know, to resume operation) if they consume 0W of power?

Add a machinegun to that deal, and you'll have the finest desktop available!
No, the oil was placed there by god to test our faith, you see.
