Have a couple(?) servers running centos in the place I started working recently.
Then again those things, for what I've seen (only been there a couple of weeks), haven't been updated in ages, so I kinda dismissed it immediatly.
Yay for not updating production boxes!:D
Interesting how a thing like this affects a whole ecosystem.
Russia and the USA do have conflicting economic interests. But going as far as saying that Putin views the US as a threat. Certainly not as a military threat, and the Russian economy is looking good.
I would also not be so quick in bundling the EU in with whatever the US does. You'd be surprised (not) at what most people in Europe think about the recent warmongering. The US isn't/hasn't been making many friends over here. Protip: Georgia... srsly isn't even on the map.I know we have an oil pipe there and that's it.
As for Georgia... dumb. ass. move.
Got your panties in a twist, and your ass handed to you by the russians, for a handfull of sheep herders who don't want to be governed by you? Really?
You had to attack a bunch of sheep herders with russian passports? Really?
Started a serious fight with the russians as you're about to join NATO? REALLY?
2000 dead count and people stress over not being able to resolve government.gov.ge. Interesting.
Actually, I think all the 'immunity' part of the bill does is slow down all the court proceedings until after the next election, as it sounds like it will eventually be declared unconstitutional.
Ah! Now i'd love to see them pull that off once it's in. Is there a previous example of such a move?
Should've used the sarcasm tag.
That and completly mangled the french in the sentence before that.
About "regimes": they did "come to power" in Europe. Here and pretty much everywhere else. By "come to power" I mean most were elected. Some are still "in power".
Also, other such "regimes" _will_ "come to power" again, be it here or/and on that side of the Atlantic.
History repeating and all that, with most people being sheep.
Having said that, nice sig. How is that candidate working for you?
Is it still "a change you can believe in"?
wwwoooosshh
Knew i should've used the sarcasm tag.
That and I totally mangled the french in the sentence before that.
About fucked up "regimes": they did rise to power in Europe and just about everywhere else, some still hold the power today and others will do so in the future.
Here's the kicker. They will, most likely, be elected by "the people".
Funny thing about history, it keeps repeting itself. And most people just don't keep track.
That said, nice signature.

Stupidly, the sad thing is everyone is less safe after this legislation goes into law.
The Telcos are just off the hook, for this particular clusterfuck. That and your administration has close to card blanche to fuck around.
Sure glad i'm european ... gah
I totally didn't see this one coming.
Always thought the guy was inocent.
Plus this is a really dumb move... even if convicted I bet the parole board would take into consideration the lack of a body, and hard evidence for that matter, just a few years into his sentence.
Really dumb move especially for a sociopath.
"mother with children" blah blah blah...
Give me an effin' break, after following the thing online she came off sounding more like a life draining bitch to me. Not that it matters, because it really shouldn't.
And i bet she'll eventually turn up in Russia.
That "reasonable doubt" thing is really working out for him.
protip: i'm not an US citizen, the whole "jury of peers" is really foreign to me. Just thinking about a bunch of _hand-picked_ morons judging anyone just give me the chills. (emphasis in hand-picked)
Because "we the people" not just let it -- we demand it to, and vote out people, who are opposed to it...
When the Federal Income Tax was first introduced in 1864, it was only 3%. We are now boiled up 35% (having touched 88% in 1942) and you don't seem to scream.
So, pardon me, if I don't object to Customs Agents copying (not "confiscating") data for examination too much -- they've been searching through travelers' material possessions since their "service" was introduced...
We are now facing a very real danger of Ms. Clinton getting elected -- because, as analysts say, of support for her among single women, who "desperately need" the "schools, mass transit, childcare", that she promises to deliver them. What those analysts -- and everyone else -- omit, is that those women want all of these benefits "for free", or, as we know, at somebody else's expense.
In other words, don't accuse the government -- it just follows the people's wishes... I'd like to meet the people or person who thought it would be ok for them to copy my personal, possibly confidential, data.
The idea that it is the same thing as searching your suitcase is just ludicrous. I just dont't see their point in that comparison.
Not being a citizen of the US I don't really care for Hillary, "single women" group lobbyists or your "Federal Income Tax" nor do i see any relation to these border "taps".
As for the "copying" vs "confiscating", i'd have my data (encrypted or not) destroyed before delivering it in either case, and in my opinion the "copying" is actually more unsettling for reasons that someone who throws mass transit and childcare into this discussion might not grasp.
Oh well, it's not like i had plans to visit the US anytime soon.
Now the plan is to avoid it like the plague.
i don't think the original was boring, or uninspired. I think it is pretty fun and with a good replay value. On the down side, it is way too long. It took me an awfull long time to finish the damn thing. The first two parts/chapters of the game are a PAIN to finish.

You need to get your facts straight.

Cisco, for one, uses QT in some apps i've used from them. Guess what, proprietary software.
Can't really think of anyone else right now.
