Re:More the desktop environment than the distro.
evilwm http://www.usenix.org.uk/conte... and/or ratpoison. Both provide great usability. If you spend all day in a GUI or text environment, you really should learn these.

Re:Was better before Yahoo acquired it.
Not sure how you're pulling it to storage, but a while back I was doing the same using this script:

mbox makes it easier to browse/read than their web site with mutt or a similar threaded mailer.

If you are ...
Here's a script that you can use to take a mbox copy of any group mail that you like to read. I wrote it when I felt that it was getting harder to read the mail due to their 'neo' UI change.

You're doing it wrong, use something like https://www.usenix.org.uk/cont...

Re: Yikes
Yes, tones of people do that already, it's called TeX or LaTeX. It probably takes about as long to learn as Word does anyway. The huge benefit of using LaTeX is that its fairly backward/forward compatible, unlike Word. Want a text based visio replacement? Try dot. Powerpoint? Don't know, don't care, make a multipade LaTeX document and just page up/down the output pdf/dvi. I don't really care much for powerpoint. Get started with LaTeX now.

Re:Root
Fandroids cling to the belief that slashdot is a pro-Apple site, where any moderation of their (actually flamebait and inflammatory) post is somehow down to "spinmods" looking to suppress the message.
Don't be silly, Slashdotters are well aware that Slashdot is anything but a pro-Apple site, mainly because of Apple's corporate hubris and unabashed bad acting. But we also know that Apple is a company that stoops to astroturfing.

Re:erm... what?
Apple forked WebKit from KHTML because they probably wanted control over their own project.
You need to lay off that koolaid. KHTML was never Apple's project. Apple just decided to take a free ride on it. A good decision. But then attempting to dominate the project was an awfully bad decision, since reversed.
Hmm, the Apple moderators seem to be loose.

"Everything .. about NT security .. was purely about .. already authenticated LAN users", styrotech
Then please describe how people were supposed to run eCommerce platforms on NTs Internet Server?
Demonstrate NTServer as THE Internet platform
* NTServer as Internet platform whitepaper done
* Analyst/lab press tour by 3/30/95
* Internet World show: mid-April
* Momentum: demonstrate 10 of the top 12 Internet sites now running on NTServer platforms
* External Beta of Internet Server: 7/1/95

Re:http://xkcd.com/936/
That prompted this, http://www.usenix.org.uk/password, sadly most of the passwords which I have at work don't accept plain words, the crypt string is more appropriate for them. Once I have a random password for a login I record it in a GPG encrypted file along with the username and mail associated with that site and store it in details/sitename/login.gpg, that way it's very easy for me to retrieve.
