Definitely. Never trust someone else with your data. I lost a VPS whose host was presumably RAID'ed and backed up. Never got my VPS or data back from them, but I only lost a few hours of data since I backed it up myself daily. After 5 days of dumb excuses I opened an account with another provider, reconfigured my name servers and got everything going again.

I didn't have to wait 5 days; it's just that my sites weren't revenue generating.

Maybe I'm trying too hard to read between the lines, but:

If you’re a Zune Pass subscriber, you may need to sync your device with your PC to refresh the rights to the subscription content you have downloaded to your device.

(emphasis mine) ...Sounds to me suspiciously like the DRM component crashed the whole Zune, just like other commenters are suggesting.

By the way, Shatner as Kirk expresses his opinion on the Zune in an image attached to this article.

Wait until Jan 1 and it will fix itself. And something about letting the battery run out and recharge before booting it after Jan 1. (Who RTFA's?)

The coolest are:

1 and 2: OpenOffice
3: Firefox
4: OSS Twitter clone that surely will surpass Twitter because Twitter is popular. (?)
5, 6, 7, 8, 9: Linux. (More specifically, Fedora, Ubuntu, Suse, Suse, Ubuntu)
10: Whatever Google released recently. What, it's hardware? Meh, leave it on the list, anyway.

More in depth? Heck they couldn't even bother themselves to add a link to the products. If they're that lazy a link to Distrowatch would've covered over half the entries.

I was going to say this is the first site I've seen that has more ad and navigation space than article space, but no, I've seen that before.

I'm considering this myself. I'm wondering if there's a way for me to sign approved certificates or otherwise whitelist certs. Eh, it would probably be easier to mark individual web certs. From how many PCs do I need to access my important secure web sites, anyway?

Sorry, this patent is for right-handed previews only.
