Tiny Water Cooled System
Xev writes "Most people water cool a full PC, over at Hexus they have water cooled a MINI PC (SFF - small form factor). Creating the smallest water cooled system." Takes all kinds to make the world go round. I'm amused that the radiator is almost as large as the computer itself.
"Patriotism assumes that our globe is divided into little spots, each one surrounded by an iron gate. Those who have had the fortune of being born on some particular spot, consider themselves better, nobler, grander, more intelligent than the living beings inhabiting any other spot. It is, therefore, the duty of everyone living on that chosen spot to fight, kill, and die in the attempt to impose his superiority upon all others. The inhabitants of the other spots reason like manner, of course . . ."
--Emma Goldman, Patriotism
"NATIONAL DEFENSE, n. In U.S. political discourse: 1) The pauperization of the nation through expenditures for deadly weapons systems; 2) The bombardment and invasion of small countries. The United States is, of course, the only nationentitled to such 'defense.' If the inhabitants of other countries resist the U.s. government's 'defensive' measures, they become guilty of 'internal aggression'; and if governments of other countries practice U.S.-style national defense, they become guilt of 'naked aggression.'"
(U.S. government spokesmen repeatedly used the term 'internal aggression' during the 1960s when referring to the resistance of the Vietnamese to the U.S. occupation of their country.)
--Chaz Bufe, The Devil's Dictionaries ("American Heretic's Dictionary" section)
"PATRIOTISM, n. 1) The inability to distinguish between the government and one's 'country'; 2) A highly praiseworthy virtue characterized by the desire to dominate and kill; 3) A feeling of exultation experienced when contemplating heaps of charred 'enemy' corpses; 4) The first, last, and perennial refuge of scoundrels."
--Chaz Bufe, The Devil's Dictionaries ("American Heretic's Dictionary" section)
"REGRETTABLE NECESSITY, n. An avoidable atrocity. The term is often employed by presidents and prime ministers when announcing bombings of civilian targets and invasions of small countries."
--Chaz Bufe, The Devil's Dictionaries ("American Heretic's Dictionary" section)
"TOUGH, adj. A term used by admiring journalists to describe politicians, especially the U.S. president and other heads of state. It normally means: 1) Callous; 2) Having little regard for human life; 3) Ready and willing to shed the blood of others while running no risk of personal injury."
(During the Vietnam War, both Bush and Cheney were "chickenhawks" who favored the war but ducked serving in it.)
--Chaz Bufe, The Devil's Dictionaries ("American Heretic's Dictionary" section)
"WAR, n. A time-tested political tactic guaranteed to raise a president's popularity rating by at least 30 points. It is especially useful during election years and economic downturns."

DONT USE REDHAT!
g
Don't support companies that is willing to sell out freedom and democracy for dollars like Redhat.
Redhat removed Taiwans flag and status as independant in latest Redhat 8.0 to please the totalitarian dictatorship in China against the democracy of Taiwan.
Even microsoft lists Taiwan in their Country-list despite objections from the Chinese government.
Even Microsoft is defending freedom, Redhat is not.
Please, chose another distributions, there is a lots of good distributions. You don't have to use Redhat and shouldn't if you care about freedom and democracy.
Even if the UN officially don't regognise Taiwan as a independant country because of the risk of war, most democratic nations clearly view Taiwan as a independant democratic nation. They have their own Flag and elected government.

Red Hat customer support has this to say:
"As a global company Red Hat must be sensitive to political differences that impact the markets it serves. One of those markets is Mainland China, where the inclusion of the Taiwanese flag would have prevented the introduction of Red Hat Linux 8.0."
Not from where I'm standing mate
What the fuck does that have to do with killing in the name of oil?

This is the last straw.
I used to be a moderate and prepared to give muslism a benefit of doubt, but no more.
Deport them or intern them but keep them out of this country.
Then why wasn't that argument applied to the Israelis who returned to "their country" in 1940s? Why should there be Israel, if they left/lost the country?
And speaking of bombing, you should read some history and learn about the way the State of Israel was founded. The Israelis you seem to admire so much forced the creation of their state by exactly the same means as the palestinian radicals today: by terror bombing the British interests both in Israel and abroad (bombing of the British embassy in Rome, for instance). Before you do that instead of watching the pro-Israel biased "news" by jewish owned media companies, you really shouldn't talk about my being a "brainwashed fuck". And if you find reading about the history too difficult, try watching a respectable news corporation like BBC at least.
The UN resolution creating the state of Israel came only after the state had already been created by force.
The moral high ground you think the Israel has does not exist.
