Don't worry, it's the usual anti-FSF, anti-GPL FUD by soulskill.

What exposure? My Sony Bluray Player came with a booklet with the full GPL and LGPL texts, but they are obliged to do so by the licence. I don't expect a reference to BSD, in any form, in the whole package of the PS4.

You can try to take over something without using the scorched earth tactics employed by MS, you know.

If Google is a very very closed company, is Apple a very very very closed one? And M$, is it a very very very very closed one? So Adobe must be a very very very very very closed company at the very least.

Try harder, it's going to launch in Brazil, but not in Portugal and I seriously doubt that Kinect will get to work with Russian/Finnish/Norwegian (which is just a continuum of dialects) languages at all during its lifetime. So, no, it's not Kinect the cause of the 1 year delay in Asia.

I bought Crusader Kings II on Steam and installed it on my laptop. Then I copied its directory to my desktop computer where Steam is not installed and I played it there since. Do that with a XBone.

Are you aware that the Xbox One is thought to have grave manufacturing problems and that it will be available in only 21 countries at launch, missing all Asia?

Same as Chernobyl: Nuclear Hysteria -> early screening -> increase in detected cases. I don't think that the Ukrainian Health System is that good, however, according to the WHO, the recovery rate from thyroid cancer "caused" by the Chernobyl disaster is far higher than usual. That means one only thing: early screening.

Because those other solutions are not as cost effective, safe from hacking and practical.

No, Sony confirmed that "PS4 games will be playable without an Internet connection". That pretty much nails it: this used game policy can only be enforced with an online DRM. That's why the Xbox One FAQ states:

Q: Does Xbox One require an “always on” Internet connection?
A: No, it does not have to be always connected, but Xbox One does require a connection to the Internet. We’re designing Xbox One to be your all-in-one entertainment system that is connected to the cloud and always ready. We are also designing it so you can play games and watch Blu-ray movies and live TV if you lose your connection.

The classification of the African languages: literally thousands of dialects that Greenberg reliably classified through the means of mass comparison. His good work with the African languages is acknowledged even by his detractors and it is generally accepted in whole or in part.

And yet we have: patèr -> pappas (ancient Greek), pater -> papa (Latin), padre -> papà (Italian), père -> papa (French), but father -> dad (English). In German there are Vater and Papa, but Papa is a French loanword attested since the 15th century. In Latin we have also tata for dad, but after all "pater" is a p-t- sequence.

As far as I know Greenberg's mass-comparison method wasn't so mass, it was limited to a statistically meaningful set of words that he thought were pretty "steady", that is numbers, familial words, basic actions like "to be", "to have", "to do", "to go" etc.
Obviously it all depends on the sample, however it is not a method for crackpots, if used correctly. It proved useful a few times.

You should at least try to gather some information, shouldn't you?
[si/oui/non]

Because "yes" and "no" are very recent words, they were not present in Latin or Ancient Greek for example. Usually they're shortcuts for expression like "so it is" or "it is not"; in Latin "sic" means "so", hence "sì" in Italian, Spanish and so on (even French). "Yes" and "yeah" are related to German "ja", take a look here: etymonline.
