Slashdot Mirror
Fedora Core 1 Released
EvilAlien writes "The Fedora Project has released Fedora Core 1, aka Yarrow. The release was expected on November 3rd, but was briefly delayed. The release notes has quite a bit of good detail, and is worth checking out for any preliminary questions you may have. Download options include BitTorrent in addition to the traditional collection of FTP mirrors."

who cares, BSD.. er, I mean, Redhat is Dead(c)(TM)(U.S.patent pending)
grow the fuck up man....seriously....get out of your mom's basement and get some fresh air...
Evil Micro...errr...spammers (yeah, that's it) had DDoS'ed the site, hoping to shut it down for good.
:D
Fortunately reason and logic prevailed
So rise up, all ye lost ones, as one, we'll claw the clouds.
Here is a mirror MIRROR
Funny, makes me wonder what the fancy desktop stuff in Fedora is all about, then...
... but it could be yours, too)
OTOH, it is possible that Linux really might not be suitable for the "but I ordered a green iMac, why are there all kinds of other colors on the front?" audience yet...
Not everybody knows how to double-click or when to use a left or a right mouse button...
(this is my personal opinion
This is a switcheroo troll. Do *not* click! Anything from ophidian.org or ackbar.org will redirect in 15 minutes to goatse.cx or worse!
On a green iMac, that wouldn't be a problem!

for someone to be able to "suck" your anus, it must have a pretty weird shape to begin with. I suppose there were some experiments (in your parents basement) you shouldn't have done involving it.
But I wouldn't dare asking you what these are, for I might never find sleep after your explanations. Don't bother replying, I won't read it anyway.
What is this worse than goatse.cx you speak of? Can it be weaponized and used against insurgents in Iraq?
God help me, I'm starting to like this guy.
Probably /. can clarify as well... Anyone notice the MS FRONTPAGE 2003 banner ad on slashdot today?!?! never thought i'd see the day...
THE MAGIC WORDS ARE SQUEAMISH OSSIFRAGE
so, my nice in-shape ass is ready for you to human bidet clean it up.
ill even be generous and give you a tip! you can keep the shit!
Mao Tse Tung, Hitler, Stalin, Castro, Pinochet, Mussolini, Marshall Joseph Tito, Slobodan Milosevic, Idi Amin, Ho Chi Minh, Saddam Hussein, Muammar Qaddafi, Juan Peron, Ayatollah Khomeini, Ferdinand Marcos, General Suharto, Pol Pot, Fransisco Franco, and certainly the worst of the bunch, SLASHDOT's editing/moderating [read: censoring] "community"(*) ALL AGREE on ONE THING:
(*)Note, the word community used often on Slashdot, this is referring to a proto communist commune.
So, you busy little plebian proletariats, get busy, you have some censoring to do! FUN! Do the bidding of your fat, undisciplined masters who never subject themselves to peer review!
Good job you little neo-commies. Don't want to hear the other side, shoot the fucker in the head as an ENEMY OF THE STATE [In this case anyone who seeks to improve the sad state of
I have a Gun and the Constitution [Not the urinated-on pissed-on hacked fucked up one WashingTOON thinks exists, I mean the real one, with Jefferson and Madison at my side], please, give me an excuse to use them both.
A few haikus to commemorate the sucktitude:

Censor him quickly
The reason China blocked Slashdot is that when Jiang Xemin saw at how good "The Editors" at Slashdot are at suppressing the community, he knew that if more of his party members saw this degree of suppressive efficacy, he would be deposed, for the good of the people, of course, in favor of Rob Malda as the all new supreme dictator and premier of China.
It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried. - Sir Winston Churchill (Especially when your democratic peers twist democracy into a reason commit censorship, to squash dissenting or unpopular opinions, and refer to them as trolls, flaimbait overrated or offtopic when they aren't any of the said)
Get busy moderating this down, you little pack of obedient prefects of the corrupt state! You are the vanguards of purity, and dissent is not allowed!
If it's a big problem, you can always use the -fetchonly argument to emerge to cache packages on your system ahead of time. emerge -fetchonly -u world && emerge -u world isn't too bad.
The missing mirrors problem is not as bad as it used to be. They now have round robin mirrors serving various geographical areas. The real problem is where they do something stupid ( weirdo dependancies, etc ) and it then propagates out to all the mirror sites before someone nails it down.
YLFIOne god, one market, one truth, one consumer.
That's ok. I love him.
