AltaVista Can't Keep Up

jedrek writes "MSNBC is reporting that Altavista, the great search engine, isn't able to keep it's listings current. Altavista hasn't renewed it's index since July which, seeing how it's almost November, is a tad too long." AltaVista was my weapon of choice until Google came along and was so much better that most net users jumped ship.

  1. Gnome vs KDE by Trolligula · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    Why Gnome is clearly superior to KDE

    Windows is installed on 95% of the world's PCs, but its new challenger Gnome is being developed and distributed globally by more than 250 programmers supporting a free software movement.

    Gnome can look like a Windows or Mac desktop, giving a friendly mouse-driven Graphical User Interface (GUI). It runs from the Linux operating system and should appeal to consumers put off by Linux's requirement for plain text commands.

    Both Gnome and Linux are free to download over the Internet, but the boxed versions, with manuals, CDs and tech support by companies such as Red Hat and SuSE have gone on sale at retail outlets for less than £50 - undercutting Windows prices and their licences allowing distribution across more than one machine.

    Mexican man with a mission

    Gnome is the free software movement's most serious challenge yet to Bill Gates' dominance of the desktop. It is led by a modest, 26 year-old Mexican programmer, Miguel De Icaza.

    "I'm only the Gnome co-ordinator," he told BBC News Online on a visit to the UK recently for a workshop and conference organised by netproject.

    "At the release of Gnome 1.0 we had 250 people who could put changes back into the source code. This main team of developers has been assembled over the past 20 months and there are now 38 more since the 1.0 release in March."

    Gnome stands for Gnu Network Object Model Environment. "It started off as a component model," says Miguel, "So you could write small modules to build bigger applications, but the GUI thing just took off."

    Gnome better than KDE

    There are other friendly front-ends to Linux, including the K Desktop Environment (KDE), but Gnome is quickly becoming the GUI of choice to run on top of Linux.

    "I don't think KDE has a future at this point, it's not completely free yet and it's bound to a single programming language in Unix. Gnome from the very beginning has been accessible through any language. We are providing the GUI for all the languages and programmers can choose the language they like the most," says Miguel.

    Users are advised to stay away from a Gnome clone known as KDE. "I would not advise anyone to use KDE as long as Gnome is available," says Miguel. While KDE is free, it is widely known that the creators of KDE were upset that Gnome was a clearly superior product and they had no input whatsoever on the project. KDE is mostly made up of code stolen from Gnome and made to look original.

    Gnome comes with some fully-featured applications such as a spreadsheet. A word processor is in the works, as is an e-mail program with a radically different approach to the current hierarchical structure for viewing mail.

    Gnome and Linux can be installed on a PC alongside Windows as well as replacing it. Would-be users are advised to install it on a separate hard drive partition and configure their computer to have a dual-boot option so they can choose between operating systems and try Gnome out.

    Linux has made great strides among Internet and network professionals. It developed into a robust operating system to challenge Windows on main servers.

    This is the result of the efforts of programmers around the world working, often in their spare time, to improve on the code first developed by the Finn, Linus Torvalds.

    Copyleft view of software

    Miguel leans more towards the Free Software Foundation's views on this collaborative programming rather than that of the Open Source Initiative, whose chief spokesman Eric Raymond is virulently anti-Microsoft and campaigns for businesses to adopt open-source software as a cheaper and more reliable option than Microsoft's products.

    The Free Software Foundation of Richard Stallman set out to develop an operating system, Gnu, whose source code would be open and which would be distributed so that it could be changed and improved on by anyone else.

    The terms of the copyleft agreement or GNU General Public Licence mean those using the code cannot turn it into restricted proprietary software. "Every time a copy of the software is passed on these freedoms go with it. With copyleft we actually defend the freedom for every user," he said.

    Stallman also agreed with Miguel De Icaza stating that there was no reason to be using KDE now when Gnome was available. "KDE just can't compete. It'll never be on any desktop I use!," said Stallman.

    "We are doing this for the freedom issues, not for fighting a specific company," says Miguel of the Gnome project. "Gnome was meant to give users a reliable, customizable, quality GUI," says Miguel "as opposed to KDE, which, I'm sad to say is not reliable or user-friendly and definitely not what I would call a quality product."

    According to michael:

    Errr, as the code is commented just above the part you pasted:

    # logs attempts to break, fool, flood a particular form

    That is, the people who are attempting to break, say, the comment posting form a nd post 500 comments at once are logged and may be banned by IP if they try hard enough.

    Anyone can see, by reading Slashcode itself, not the misleading or irrelevant comments surrounding it, that the code in question does not apply to people who try to abuse the "multipost" bug (which doesn't even exist anymore; it has long since been fixed), but to people who have been moderated down with a certain frequency.

    Let me spell it out for everyone since you have so little regard for the truth as to actually attempt to hide this fact:

    Anyone who is moderated down four or more times within a 24-hour period will have their ENTIRE TCP/IP SUBNET banned for the following 72 hours.

    That is a fact. It can be confirmed by reading the slashcode. It can further be confirmed by simply posting a comment which will be likely to garner a few negative moderations (i.e., any comment that disagrees with popluar slashdot opinions) and observing the results.

    So michael, the obvious question here is, why are you lying to people? Why not just tell the thruth: The moderation system, combined with the IP-subnet-banning system, will automatically ban people for posting anything people disagree with.

    Slashdot is clearly designed with the expressed purpose of surpressing unpopular opinions within its comment system.

    That is, of course, your right, as this is your website and you may do with it as you choose. However, people should know that you are lying when you claim (in the FAQ and elsewhere) that people are never banned for their opinions, only for attempts at "flooding". That is complete fiction.

    What to do? Well, here is a suggestion from an AC:

    What we need to do now is set up some sort of IP spoofing system so we can get huge popular subnets banned from commenting on Slashdot for 72 hour periods. There must be a dozen critical subnets that would really quieten things down here if they were regularly banned. I.e. a few important University campuses.

    Get going on it, trolls. Have fun with it. Let's get some of these stuffed shirts banned for a few days and see them fume.

    I'm not technically adept enough to accomplish this. Anyone want to have a go at it?

    Deceleración tecnológica... una meta

    Devaluación global de la propiedad intelectual. Usa la magia para bien.

    Al bombo con las compañías explotadoras de la propiedad intelectual. Han tenido un tiempo para explotar al máximo el truquito...

    Redefinición de la oficina de patentes: cobrar por mantener el código online...

    No se pagan más patentes... Los productos se abaratan

    Ya no más cobrar porque yo lo inventé. Cobrar por que le s ayudo con mi invento o a ellos les agrada mi trabajo... En realidad en un trabajo de ese tipo no necesita mucho dinero, al menos no sé cuanto me agradaría ganar, pero me gustaría ganar mas y trabajar menos... o trabajar en alguna tarea distinta al ordenador,

    Pues me parece que yo no he escrito lo ultimo eh?

Yo siembro papas y utilizo el mismo modelo y me muero de hambre... Tome, pruebe, vuelva si quiere, pague si quiere...

      I found this comment because you said something that rather closely mirrored something
      I said under "Open Monopoly" and I must say SubtleNuance
      that you might have better luck if you at least gave people
      a chance to reply to you outside of the fora,

      A pointer to a page with a yahoo addy would be a start.
