Mandrake 9.2b1 Released, 2.6 Test Kernel in Cooker
DCowern writes "Mandrake today announced 9.2 beta 1 of their distribution. More interestingly, Mandrake has included a test version of kernel 2.6 in cooker (their development version). It's dated 27 July so it should be on all the cooker mirrors in the RPM2 directory by now. If you can't find it on your favorite mirror, it's definitely on ftp.sunet.se."
Better yet, Bruha points to BitTorrent files for the 1st 2nd, and 3rd ISOs, and a link to the Mandrake 9.2 wiki, writing "Note that the beta1 installation uses the same kernel as 9.1 did, so if you had problems installing 9.1, you may want to wait for beta2 (which will use an updated kernel)."
Dear fellow patriots ...
we all look forward to a world united under the flag of Freedom, Democracy, and the American Way
I hate to burst your bubble here, but is the American Way, led by the principles of freedom and democracy and free market capitalism, to give people the freedom to choose what they want? To let the market decide which products are bad and which are good? To engage other nations in dialogue and promote the values of liberty and democracy?
Was America not won from the British, supported industrially, and motivated ideologically by the French? Did these two countries not have a very good relationship for hundreds of years?
Oh, sorry, when you say The American Way, what you mean is the Neo-Colonial Conservative way, that belies instead in the preservation of successful American private enterprise for its own sake, the flattening of all who disagree with you, the curtailment of civil liberties and outright arrogance, and the selective use of tariffs to protect American industry against foreign competition, regardless of what you tell the rest of the world to do.
