    [...] compensate these customers for losing their info.

    In Belgium Citibank has payed people who were subject to phising back. This is phising. Even people that were infected by a tojan got payed back something.
    In Dutch some info.

    So here it is that the CUSTOMER lost his info and got compensated for that. English info available as well.

    No. Linus was not writing a Solaris/IRIX/Tru64/any-other-pay-unix replacement, he was making a Minix replacement. Minix is free. Read his USENET post that started the whole thing.

  7. Re:The many faces of ascii by mkro · · Score: 2, Informative · on Appreciation For All Things ASCII
    I'm blushing, and I hope you can forgive me.

    While we're at it, we should also mention ACiDDraw, which some people prefer over TheDraw under DOS. Wanna draw under *nix? Try TetraDraw.
    For Win32 there's a promising little app called PabloDraw. The SourceForge page hasn't been updated for a while, but there's a newer, more stable version circulating. Ask around.

    The above mentioned are all fine and dandy for blockstyle, newschool and ansi, but if you want to draw oldschool (and don't have an Amiga with CygnusEd lying around), you might want to use something like UltraEdit for Windows (or some other editor with vertical block selection) with SAC-OS.FON, a modified (added pixels, doubled height to fix perspective) Topaz font.

    Are anyone drawing oldschool under Linux, and wanna share what tools they are using? Kwrite has block selection, but finding a descent (Well, familiar) font is pretty hard. Yes, courier can be used, but I'd rather wanna use SAC-OS. If anyone knows how to convert it (Windows bitmap font) to something that is usable under Linux, feel free to do so :)

    For more info on the ascii scene (Which still is alive, mind you), check out Acheron.org, or pop by #ascii or #sac on EFNet. People are also organizing oldschool ascii compos on #oscompo/EFNet on Sunday evenings, but I'm not sure if there has been any activity there lately.
