  1. Hit 'em with moderator points by bee · · Score: 2

    Do what I do to the *BSD is dying troll: every time I get moderator points, I go into BSD and moderate them down (-1, Troll). I generally end up spending anywhere from 2 to 4 modpoints that way every time. All it takes is a few of us that get moderator points and we'll have the problem taken care of.

    Of course, since I've now posted to this thread, I won't be able to mod down the troll in this article even once I get modpoints again. Ah well.

    At least mafia-owned pizzarias make excellent pizza. Compare to Bill Gates.
  2. My copy of the new FreeBSD book arrived today by Laplace · · Score: 3, Informative

    My first impressions:

    * The CD is a freakin' CD-R!?
    * Instructions are great, and truly geared towards a FreeBSD novice
    * Lots of screen shots with deatiled instructions
    * Covers lots of topics

    This book is as good or better than any beginner Linux book I've seen.

    Still, it didn't give me any indication on how to set up my PCI modem (no, it is not a win-modem!). Damn my uninformed purchase! (the modem, not the book)
