The immune system functions best when exposed to something akin to the ancestral evolutionary environment? Well shave my beard and call me normal!

If Apple sold deep fried dog shit in a box it'd sell well. The fanbois will buy almost anything with an Apple logo on it.
The Flash plugin is closed source but Adobe has published the SWF specification. There are third party tools which produce SWF output which will run in the Flash plugin. My favourite is haXe, a Java like language which compiles to a number of targets including SWF.
And I would give it -1, thus nature balances itself.
Valid point but......the plural of virus is viruses. No need to capitalize trojan either, unless you're referring specifically to The Trojan Horse or the brand of condom.

No blacks, no Irish, no dogs.
I like space ships, Uhura, 7 of 9, T'pol and Star Trek jokes on Boston Legal. For these reasons alone it is the greatest science fiction franchise.
Crash test results for the Hummer H3 and the Honda Fit suggest that the driver and passengers of both vehicles would fare well in such a collision.

Incidentally my mother in law recently bought a car. She wanted a big car as they are safer. I assured her crash test results were a better indicator of fitness in an accident than size. She revised her opinion. She now believes that a big car with a good safety rating is safer than a small car with the same rating.
Never let evidence based science stand in the way of folk wisdom and intuition.
It's the thought that counts, cheers.
Nah, it's more like putting hot English mustard on your cock and shoving it hard up the ass of your sworn enemy.
Would that be codefungus, the asshole?
In layman's terms, the sky appears blue because it is blue.
An objective comparison of the features of a Harley Davidson and pretty much any other motorcycle in the world shows that the Harley costs much more while offering much less. It is expensive, heavy, loud, primitive, guzzles fuel while offering pedestrian performance, handles like a boat and brakes like one too.
But people get Harley Davidson tattoos, wear Harley Davidson jackets and t-shirts and, where the law requires a motorcycle helmet, wear black open faced helmets that offer the minimum possible protection in the event of an accident because it is part of the Harley aesthetic.
If you want a really good bike buy a Japanese bike. If you want a really good bike for more money buy a German bike. If you want 1950s technology for even more money again buy a Harley, but don't kid yourself you're doing it for any reason other than to buy into the lifestyle and culture associated with riding one.
As for Macs, I've owned a few. They cost a lot of money, you have to wear a skivvy while using them, they might be reasonably powerful but OS(u)X makes pretty short work of the power on hand to deliver abysmal performance on anything shy of the latest models. And for any real work I go back to my old PC running XP Home. Because unlike the Mac it really Just Works. And I don't feel dirty, cheated and disillusioned every time I use it.
The article links to a PDF of a report from the Linux Foundation on Linux kernel development. The report makes shows that the majority of changes to the kernel in recent years have been made by programmers being paid to work on the kernel by companies like Redhat, IBM, Oracle, etc. The report does not mention development of anything other than the Linux kernel.
...plunging deeper and deeper into the unplumbed depths of unimaginably violent, raging, endless storms, and finally sinking to the crushing depths of the great core furnace.
