I'd be happy my phone wasn't compatible with CALEA, I might care about 911 (else I'd have another tool/app to serve me) and as long as I can communicate, I'm not to concerned about scary "open source" stuff.

For the record, I just bought "Javascript and jQuery: The Missing Manual 2e" and am impressed with its style of teaching. Yes, as someone who has programming background, it sometimes seems to be directed at those with no programming experie

Ubuntu's goal has always been Linux for the Masses. Now, if the discussions are accurate, unknowing users will be searching "my_girlfriend_michelles_porn.zip" and see that information passed to Amazon. It's not what most people would want,

Your home PC isn't really on the Internet. It's on a crappy pseudo-network that happens to be connected to the Internet. The hell are you talking about? I know I have a public IP address and am running several wikis, a Minecraft server and

You might have time to drift down off that horse you're on and give the guy a break. So what if he's judging someone? He made a valid comment about the fact that this person supposedly consistently lets users of their startups down.

Hence the very purpose of the second amendment: At the time, the point was to use force against our government. Nowadays, I think general protection from harassment, as well as the right to privately assemble and to dissent, are just as imp

I don't know if you're defending the actions of these people (I can hardly imagine), but I don't understand why people still defend Islamic protests at ALL. Back when that Dutch cartoonist drew an offensive picture of Mohammed, Christians t

There are multiple purposes for a firearm (hunting, sport, and self defense). Already, you're wrong in your assertion. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, since i was obviously talking in the context of self-defense. No, I do not WA

I loathe the requirement of a current prescription for glasses. Corrupt bureaucracy at its usual tricks. What I wonder: Is it illegal to make a bed out of flame-retardant free cotton balls?

I absolutely agree that it's tough to be honest and off-the-cuff in politics, much less modern politics. However, as someone else said, no one should look at Obama and think about how 'hip' he is for using Reddit as a phone-in for stances h

That's his problem: The numbers in versions have traditionally (and more usefully) been used to denote levels of feature change and bugfix. A time-based arbitrary version number is pointless; it'd make more sense to use a timestamp for a ve

Uh... Red Hat gives its source out for free as it is legally obliged to do (which CentOS and others take and build). To get official RHEL binaries (which also come with support), you must pay for a subscription.
