Please read the complete article. A little comforting fact is that LLs will be compensated through their insurance.

Just like they have cracked down on WikiLeaks !

Furthermore, in some Indian states (such as Jammu and Kashmir), you have to fill out a form with your name, photograph, and proof of address to get a pre-paid/post-paid connection.... All in the name of terrorism. So, what happens now..... Pakistan is setting up towers along the International border, and the terrorists are getting sim-cards from pakistan and making calls using pakistani towers, whereas local indian population has to go through so many hassles to get a single sim-card.

*Most* (not all) of them will choose USA over any other first world country if given chance. This is the fact and you can argue as much as you want.

people stop trying to find faults with the american university system. It is the elementary/high schools in america that needs to be fixed. The higher education in USA is the best in the world. People yearn to come here to get quality higher education. Ask any international (undergraduate/graduate) student who is studying here.

Excuse my ignorance... but why is this a surprise when android is an open source OS? Why has anyone not noticed this in the source code!! Or is only kernel open source and not the other parts?

A little bit of common sense can go long way.. most of the people are not in their house during day-time.. umm when they leave their house for work..

Release it and prove that users like what you have. Otherwise, I don't even know that your great platform/software does what you are saying it does. You want to make money out of your start-up but don't want to do the initial hard labor... it doesn't work that way.

No, you can not predict what information may put you in trouble in the future. Something that looks harmless at present may bite you in the ass in the future (e.g. during job search etc.). So, if you have encrypted your posts right from the beginning, then you don't have to worry about the future.

I don't understand why would anyone buy anything by clicking on the ads appearing on webpages? I usually google the thing I want to buy, or just go to amazon, buy.com etc for price comparison. I don't think I will ever buy anything by clicking on ads. It is surprising to me that online ads can help sustain companies. Can someone please enlighten me? Thanks!

I had to buy a Red Hat book to get my hands on to the linux install CD that came with it. It took me (and one of my other friends) a whole night to figure out how to partition the drive. Basically, it was something like if you install linux in the partition beyond 4 or 8 GB (dont remember exactly), then you can not boot linux from that partition. We had windows installed in the beginning of HD. It took us a while to get it running, but it was fun.

There was no internet in our dorms at that time. All the computers on our floor were connected using the old coax cable with terminators at both the ends.
