Linux at Industrial Light and Magic
Nicholas DePetrillo writes "Linux Journal has a big story about how LINUX is being used in hollywood, specificly at Industrial Light and Magic with some GREAT screenshots
and a very descriptive article with configuration details." Word has it that their rendering farms have gotten even bigger since this article was published.
i raped my uncle!!
I sex0r3d his ass0r
But I prefer to be the guy who puts name tags on people at BSD conventions
does that /. effect ever kick in quick.
I wonder if Linux Journal can distinguish it from a DOS attack?
We have only a few posts and it's already slashdotted?!
Fucking weak!

Dear on by,
My name is Timmy but everyone calls me Little Timmy. I am 8 years old. I am writing to you hoping that you can help me.
My mommy told me that the doctors say I have head cancer. I have been in the hospital for ages. Mommy said that if I don't get cured I will have to leave and join Jesus in Heaven. I don't want to leave my mommy!
There is a doctor in Mexico that mommy says can cure head cancer but mommy is poor and we can't afford to pay him
The doctor told mommy there was a place on the internet called Slashdot. He said that if we can give him 50 karma from the Slashdot he will cure my head cancer. My mommy says she found you on the Slashdot and we hope that you will help us get the 50 karma we need for my operation.
Please help us!
Love,
Little Timmy

Please help poor Timmy by modding this comment up!

Journalling file systems in Linux are by far not production ready, I urge any coders to help support journalling in linux.
Gimme a break!
Remember the short film "The 405" that was all over the net a year or two ago, about the airliner landing on an empty freeway? If two guys working nights and weekends for 3 months with a PC can make one of the busiest freeways in LA look empty, it doesn't make sense that a professional effects crew with a multimillion dollar budget can't simulate Sydney deserted. This has to be either a publicity thing or some unbelievable ego trip.
saden is a troll look at his past posts
Could there be some kind of analogy between your post and a blatant troll?
Your hairy ass is Obi Wan Kanobi. Come back when you've thought of some funny jokes. No, wait, just don't come back.
marking it offtopic sounds like you'd like to talk about it at some other time
Amen.
/Linux/ fails. Companies fail, Linux companies being no different. Except Linux companies have tended to be .com companies, and .com companies tend to have stupid unworkable business plans. Like, say, trying to annoy your customer into paying you to stop annoying them.
I don't give a crap if any company goes under. They're companies, and if they don't sell me something that I think is worth it, screw them. I don't care what market it is, I'm not going to be providing corporate welfare. It's not like if some Linux company fails, then
Though this doesn't necessarily have anything to do with Linux Journal, since I don't think that guy represents them in any way.

Which asshole moderated this guy as redundant? Do YOU see the content of the text before this message? There is a slow mirror link which is also down, but redundant? Nice thankyou for him bothering to post the text. Sheesh.
Somebody mod this guy up at least back to two, please.
Computer Science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes. --E. W. Dijkstra
In the original SW movies (Ep4-6) when a jedi died, their body disappeared. (Yoda, Obi Wan).
They also turned into a ghost. (Yoda, Obi Wan, Anakin)
How come this didn't happen to Qai gon jinn in episode 1? And they burnt his body at the end of the movie? Apparently this was meant to be made clear in Episode 2, but i didn't see how or where.
Just curious.

You can tell how powerful someone is by the magnitude of the crime they can commit and be able to get away with.
They changed my karma though I didn't really care.
So, did you email them and ask them to double check your address, and to send another copy? Or did you think the best approach was just a random complaint on /. ?

It was "explained" in Ep II, you just missed it. As Anikan begins to slaughter the Tusken raiders, you hear a disembodied voice saying "Anikan, Anikan No!"...That voice was Qui-Gon's.
