Yeah, the chance of someone breaking your wife while using her is much smaller.
Is your name ironic?
Well, honestly, I'd rather take Microsoft's money than yours, especially if I then spent that money producing good hardware that worked great with Linux... *shrugs*
I just bought an Asus(X59GL) with windows, I would've much preferred to buy one with Linux but it was actually 80GBP cheaper with the windows tax, I guess that I'll spend "ethically" when I've got more money.
Seriously, stop being sensible on Slashdot, you're spoiling it for the rest of us..
You're right that I should've gathered more from the context, but in an article about neanderthals I was thinking in "evolutionary" time, so not quite geological time, but it would still consider 500 years fairly recent.

That depends how you define unrelated, but I think that the Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Act of 2001 is a perfect example of the fact that the name of a law is chosen to try and make sure that it gets passed.
If you read Asimov's book you will find out that the zero-law was added later.
zeroth
You wouldn't call the others the one-law the two-law and the three-law, would you?
But enough with the pedantry!
I couldn't agree more, I just wish that
It's all glued together with open standards
applied to package management, I think that would be a huge step towards 'modularity' between distros, and create a healthier Linux ecosystem.
