That's the nuclear option. She can do it once, and then there will be a drastic constitutional reform to ensure she doesn't do it again.

...and I for one will take to the streets with a Union Jack and proclaim "God save the Queen!". Now, this Digital Britain malarkey....

The fact is that the BBC is known for its objectivity. I know a lot of American who only get their news from there because they regard the American press as either too liberal or too conservative. (Or more often than not, too sensationalistic or too "fluffy.")

...and with that, Mr. Murdoch can bog right off and come back when he's willing to pry the BBC from our cold, dead hands.

The fact that the punishment is disproportionate doesn't make the fact that this should be on equal footing with drunk driving any less true. I agree that both crimes should warrant less time in the locker, but it is good that Utah legislature is being objective instead of applying sanctimonious populism.

Note: The Voice and Video support in pidgin-2.6.1 is a bit fragile. You MUST have the latest version of farsight2 and the stack of libraries it requires. You may also need to open ports on your firewall to allow it to connect.

To say the ruddy least. I've been trying to connect to friends' GTalk clients and it just doesn't work (although a couple of times I've managed to hear them).

"Who made this guy a Lord, the Sith?"

Quite. The "man" is a disgrace to the Lords. I wish there were a way to have him kicked out....

and preventing maps for page zero doesn't solve the problem... it just means you need to find a bug where you can corrupt a function pointer to point to mappable space.

In before "use PaX" ...as I do?

Just echo something greater than 0 to /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr

Which ya'll should've set during config, anyway.

This means, you can be forced to do self-incrimination. What's next? Do we remove the right to remain silent? In dubio contra reo?

Perhaps someone's said it already, I cba to read every reply--the right to remain silent went before the right not to self-incriminate. Guilt can be inferred by silence.

...and as for the two mentioned, where do I donate money, protest or find out how to help with publicity?

When the process of legal shikanery yields better returns than investing in real world products then it is apparent that the our culture has run aground . . .

No, it's just the logical conclusion of a culture of worshipping money.

Begging your pardon; where's the dichotomy?

Amen. I bought a pair of K700s last year, haven't looked back.

Hmmm:

Some information is vital to national security.

*Picture flash*

So much so, the electorate cannot see it.

*Picture flash*

You are forbidden.

*Bars clamp on screen*

This information would be devastating in the hands of terrorists

*Mushroom cloud*

Clearly, the most strict of vetting is needed.

*Pictures of ebola victims*

Guess who has access to this information, vital to national security?

*Fade-out*
*Flashing photographs of lobbyists with unfortunate expressions (think tabloid celebrity photos)*

Call your representative today. Make sure only the most vital, most trustworthy people are trusted.

After having built a Nehalem system with HD4870 last week, all I can do is extend my joy and gratitude.

The moral of the story is; It pays to support those who support free software.
