Linux gives me confidence
,----[ Quote ]
| This something I never had with windows.
| Confidence in my operating system. What do
| I mean by this? Well let me explain. Just
| recently I was doing a remote upgrade of
| Ubuntu Jaunty to Ubuntu Karmic. Everything
| was going along as easily as a hot knife
| through butter. Configuration files were
| changed, packages were downloaded and were
| in the process of being installed. Then it
| happened.
|
| Halfway through the upgrade. At the most
| sensitive part where the packages were
| being installed. The computer was
| rebooted. This could easily happen to
| anyone if there is a power glitch and you
| are not using an UPS. In this case, if you
| remember I was connected remotely, the end
| user decided to reboot the computer. After
| I had specifically told them not to touch
| it. I don't blame them. These sort of
| things happen.

Contest To Hack Brazilian Voting Machines
,----[ Quote ]
| "Brazilian elections went electronic many
| years ago, with very fast results but a few
| complaints from losers, of course. Next month,
| 10 teams that accepted the challenge will have
| access to hardware and software (Google
| translation; original in Portuguese) for the
| amount of time they requested (from one hour
| to four days). Some will try to break the
| vote's secrecy and some will try to throw in
| malicious code to change the entered votes
| without leaving traces."
