Yes, that kind of circular reasoning is called induction.
A car example, specially for Slashdot:
A Trabant is no car.
No car is better than a Bentley.
Therefore a Trabant is better than a Bentley.
There is always a way to do what you want with UNIX. You can rename Safari to something else, then make a soft link that fools the unconfigurable applications that call Safari to call your browser of choice. This should not be a big deal at all.
Yah, the few times I went to the trouble of tracing an attack back, it always ended up at a government ocmputer, so the above was my exact thought too.
The USA/Canada SS is a bit short, but using a credit card number as a password would be much better. It is pre-printed on a sturdy piece of plastic, always handy in your wallet and you can easily get a new one by telling your bank that some dodgy web shop got compromized...
How about showing where forests are replanted? In North Ameria, more than 2 billion trees are planted each year and the total forest coverage of the continent has increased considerably over the past century.
Two words: Impossible.
I don't believe that a backwater like Sudan has 32 computers, nevermind 32 stuxnet infections, unless maybe these are real viral infections of decimated cattle. So that map and analysis looks like total bulldust to me.
Yeah, I made little rockets and crackers and launched them from model airplanes when I was a teenager. Today, I still do the same thing on a larger scale, working in the defence industry. All of that doesn't make me a terrorist, quite the contrary.

The Lenovo laptops always work well with Linux. The S110 (mini) may be good for elementary school. I am using one daily running Fedora 16.
So, no-one else got the Tom Tom GPS joke?
It sounds like the usual air travel problem, where the driving and check in/out takes longer than the flight itself.
This idea is great until the phone rings...

The DOD is probably the largest user of Linux in the world. DARPA has been funding Free software development for decades.
I'm an Egineer and did Calculus, Complex Math, Applied Math, Statistics etc. In practice I do Reading and Riting and almost zero Rithmetic.
If that was true then immigrants will never find work, since they leave their fraternal network behind. I am now working in my third country.
Yup, you just described a typical military system: Linux, VMware and a Windows VM. Although they do run anti-virus too.
Wires are so last century old skool. Let the tenants use cellphone modems.
That sounds like a minor development project with no future career prospects. You should subcontract it.
Go back 10,000 years and there were almost no forests, since almost the whole planet was covered with ice. So deforestation is a relative concept.
How about showing where forests are replanted? In North Ameria, more than 2 billion trees are planted each year and the total forest coverage of the continent has increased considerably over the past century.
So they haven't actually concluded any such thing. Therefore a totally bulldust article. Thanks for wasting our time.
"Autistics" There, fixed it for ya.

Fruit flies like a banana.
I have had a legal secretary delete about 10,000 files at the click of a mouse. Sometimes, backups are very handy things.
