Can we have a Slashdot story for each of such things which China's sensors censor, on apple.slashdot.org ? Chinese censorship is too common for YRO...:-)

New Year Greetings.

Now lets hope they start publishing their videos from Adobe Flash to HTML5 VIDEO tag based on User-Agent strings. Looking forward to watch some Theora content from whitehouse.gov.

Yeah, lets hope they get it, and start doing it on their devices....

This will definitely lead to increase in usage of FOSS OSs unless people decide to surrender their choice for the convenience...:P

sudo vi /etc/httpd/httpd.conf
Password: :sh
sh#

An excerpt from sudoers(5):

NOEXEC and EXEC

If sudo has been compiled with noexec support and the underlying operating
system supports it, the NOEXEC tag can be used to prevent a dynamically-
linked executable from running further commands itself.

In the following example, user aaron may run /usr/bin/more and /usr/bin/vi
but shell escapes will be disabled.

aaron shanty = NOEXEC: /usr/bin/more, /usr/bin/vi

See the "PREVENTING SHELL ESCAPES" section below for more details on how
NOEXEC works and whether or not it will work on your system.

Why doesn't SUA work on Windows Vista Home Premium?

Restricting things, which're not naturally restricted sucks. A kind of DRM :( .
