And by "all of the popular full, un-sandboxed operating systems for end-users" you mean the one that isn't sandboxed, Windows? because, technically even just the popular part could mean only Windows, but the addition of un-sandboxed furth

I've never understood the whole idea of everyone must be equal because. Politically speaking, the US (and most other countries) isn't socialism/communism (and most people become hysterical at the first mention of either), but capitalist sys

Incorrect. IP is the universal language that the Internet speaks. Technically.

I'm mostly peeved with the whole theme licensing issue that's popped up recently. Mostly the idea that if you don't do things their way, you're doing it wrong (and can be banned from speaking at a WordCamp).

Not always. That could just add clutter to the html. Or they might not have permission to edit the html (because it's mostly generated by other tools, and they might be in a weird setup where design doesn't touch the html, look, I don't kno

Not running it in Ubuntu, but used to run it on Arch. Or should be given a new executable, firefox-aurora. As for add-ons, most developers seem to mark comparability for future versions, so you shouldn't have to worry too much. You can alwa

Not really. I mean, yes, more than the average person, but that's because code licensing helps make the world go 'round, and means we don't have to reinvent the wheel every time we want to do something. It's mostly because modern copyright

the main difference is that this essentially places the work in the public domain, where the MIT license means it's freely available, but the copyright is still the creator's. Also, thou have to retain the MIT license and distribute it with

The numbers weren't right next to them on the list before (they're now gone). The difference is that the point total is under the news item on HN, where the list put it next to it. There was more space between the numbers on the list than o

No. I don't personally know anybody who turns off javascript, and through the internet I only know of technical people (as in, the kinds of people who understand how browsers and the internet work) who disable it.

How do you know it was his decision? Also, devil's advocate, why is it a bad thing for non-technical users not to be able to disable javascript? Do you know of any non-technical users who disable javascript?

Every time I've tried to use Elementary I find it really buggy and slow. I know that it's currently in beta, but every time I read about it people talk about how stable it is, which doesn't seem to be the case for me. I've tried several tim

While the Declaration states that they (Jefferson et al.) see it as their civic duty to fight an oppressive government (a fairly Lockean view, pretty much lifted from the Second Treatise), again, it was mostly an inflammatory document, writ

It depends on what state you're in... (provided you're going to a bar, and not just purchasing it and going home) You could do it in Wisconsin, but not Illinois.

Right, but that's not all 64 million of them. Or even a large fraction of them (provided that number's the self-hosted installs).

I guess I just didn't see a reason for HTP to lie about it, especially with several smaller pieces out there confirming large portions of it. I suppose I don't understand why it's necessary to know if HTP was being 100% honest when the big

What exactly wasn't believable about it before? Linode confirmed that someone cracked into their system on their blog, which I consider as being confirmation enough for everything.

That's a poor question. The Revolutionaries were really just opportunists. They could have received the representation they wanted in parliament, however they saw the chance to start their own government, a new one, built by them, however t

I would say that the framers did envision a government that people didn't fully trust. Most of them came with a healthy distrust of government, and wrote in all of the checks and balances because they didn't trust governments, and the check

But there's at least some proof that you're able to do something. With Siegler, there isn't proof that he's able to do something. I'm not saying Andreessen is good at everything, all I'm saying is that he's done something before.
