It will be fun to see someone lecturing JWZ on what he can do and what he cannot do on the web.
> If the citizens demand access to those services, or find it offensive that their privacy and security is being violated and circumvented, they will take action. Hah, right. They'll just file a complaint to their…
Yeah, that's why that proportion is important. There are a lot of examples for that. XML, C++, PHP. The list goes ever on and on :-).
I stopped using mutt a while ago, but I just used separate config files for every mail account and a bash alias to launch mutt for each one. Unless you actually need to do things like move entire e-mail threads between…
To be fair, if you stick to the good parts, any language is good. It's the good parts : bad parts proportion that tends to ruin things.
When studying power consumption for this type of devices, it's extremely common to measure the current being drawn, rather than to put out values in watts. For one thing, it's the current that you usually measure in…
Netscape before 4 kicked ass. Netscape 4 was terrible. Netscape 6 was late.
The Pi foundation being good friends with Broadcom also helps.
It's a case of not really telling the truth, which is pretty much what lying means.
> how inportant was/is a switching supply Fairly important. Linear power supplies are pretty large and put out a lot of heat. It was commonplace back then for most appliances, including computers, to have a linear power…
It's more likely a bold overstatement made by a superficial onlooker. Wozniak describes the same power supply here: http://archive.woz.org/letters/general/35.html , in these terms: Other hobby computers of the day used…
This is a pretty interesting article! I raised more than my fair share of eyebrows by telling people I'm not really surprised with this kind of complexity (note: I'm an EE by formation, I took a frickin' two-semester…
If you use an actual pdf reader instead of the JS-based in-browser crap, it's quite instantaneous.
Yep, what ics said :-). Basically, I think OpenBSD is a good operating system. It has a clean architecture, great code quality, and I am fond of its engineering principles. I don't think it's Good (TM) -- there are…
Unfortunately, while this is true in the server/desktop world, this isn't true for embedded systems. Hardware that can reliably run OpenBSD tends to be in the more expensive space -- x86 or PowerPC based. There are…
That's also true. Things weren't always like that when it comes to large organizations involved in FOSS development, but one would hope lessons are learned :-)
> Now, Canonical keeping to themselves has a very crucial advantage: they leave everyone else alone. They stay in their corner, they don't bother, they don't intervene I certainly get why it would be in their interest…
I don't necessarily agree with how mjg59 chooses to resolve his issues, but it's hard not to get the impression that he's a little right about this. The problem is precisely this: > With Ubuntu and any other software,…
> Then came the new GNOME 3 and the particular way that GNOME development works. It was not workable to offer to the users a stable and distinct user experience. So, Unity was created and all hell broke loose. I decided…
> Why isn't OpenBSD more widely used? For many of the scenarios you listed, it really boils down to peer pressure. People who make decisions know that Linux is Good (TM). Convincing them that there is a better…
I hear this argument a lot. That situation is as unlikely as it gets. At least in my part of the world, torture is particularly discouraged as a means of gathering information during war. Not only are prisoners likely…

I just tried to look it up. Turns out the only announcements are from Dr. Web, a "famous" antivirus vendor, and techcrunch.com which quotes Dr. Web's announcement. No word on how it spreads. Also, unsurprisingly: > Once…
