around the same level of recognition as Dijkstra, I would say.
Bah. Knuth wrote volumes of books full of algorithms. I can't think of a single algorithm that Dijkstra ever came up with.
IANAL, but the GPL does not affect your rights as the user of a piece of software. It affects your rights as a distributor of that software or derivatives of it.
Who is trying to assert authority over you???
The discussion is about scientists hiding their beliefs because of perceived hostility towards those beliefs. You appear to have plenty of that hostility.
Groups with deep beliefs always push for laws to be interpreted in line with those values. This is true if you're the ACLU trying to get a cross removed from public land (or formerly public land) because you feel it is akin to state-sponsored religion or if you're a church group arguing that freedom of religion is not freedom from religion. Both are acting in a way consistent with their beliefs and ostensibly working for the greater good. People can disagree completely and still respect one another.
You seem to be in the angry minority who sneaks in during the night to tear the cross down.
Are you angry that people believe in God when you do not? Are you angry because you think God doesn't believe in you? Or are you one of those types who just like to froth at the mouth while tilting at windmills?
Grow up.
...on being *exactly* the type of obnoxious jackass they are worried about.
Also, if you're SO worried about them pushing their beliefs, why do you not hesitate to push yours?
it should drive up the cost of using the attorneys so high as to make it not profitable to use bogus dmca notices.
A better way to make bogus dmca notices unprofitable is to sue them for damages. The EFF has had some success going after known dmca abusers.
The ASUS RT-N16, Linksys WRT610N, and Netgear WNR3500L look promising. They're all supported by dd-wrt and in theory could work with openwrt. The Asus is some nice hardware for $90.
Which came first, GPL or CDDL? Sun knew what they were doing when they choose the license for the opensolaris kernel.
'mount -t nfs -o intr' and 'umount -l' should solve your problems.
Yeah, why can't there be one way to do it like on Windows.
One good reason why computers can do more work than people is that they never have to stop and answer the phone.
