In no way will this law help people who have trouble thinking on their own, think on their own. In no way will this strengthen democracy but only strengthen control of what state government considers influence or product sale to silence competitors to those who pay them kickbacks. So I am going to pass in support of this idea.

Submission + - Theo De Raadt's Small Rant on OpenSSL (gmane.org) 1

If you think this article isn't terrible, front page lul is the following: http://www.nytimes.com/imagepages/2012/09/23/us/jp-data-5.html Apparently Corning now makes diskless, powerless servers built on nothing but fiber.

Mainly because all companies are aware of the trouble that other industries have already endured and they are intelligent enough to plan around those issues.

I am so pleased to see that today's generation of young gamers are more accepting of linux that this can be a possibility. Id Software tried just over 20 years ago with distribution via lokigames.com but the project failed due to lack of support to PAY for a linux game at the time and the over production of product that left lokigames to go bankrupt. Hopefully Valve has a better business plan. ***SPOILER ALERT*** I have a feeling they do.

Doctors are not known for posting negative results to any journal. In fact there are age old Doctor jokes you can google that make fun of doctors that do post negative results.
