I for one am glad to see them gone. Too many (stupid) journalists have based their impression of GNU/Linux on Corel's AWFUL distribution. Although I will always use Debian or Slackware, I think that Mandrake (or RH) provides a much more media-friendly face for GNU/Linux than Corel. Corel's Linux was pretty shoddy in my opinion. I had the experience of having several friends machines lock up during a Corel install that were fine on other distros.
My other issue with Corel was that it didn't do anything original that would have Linux users rally to supporting it.
Myhope is that another Linux company buys it just to put Corel Linux to rest and to pick up a few good developers and busy them doing something useful.
Oh... and I didn't like them using KDE when it was non-Free.:)
There's an abandoned railroad tunnel on the east side of Providence that goes for almost a mile, from slighty north of the art club to Gano St. Its almost a mile in length. The art club exit is down the hill from a small parking lot. The tunnel features a burned out car, a tv and a mural to Spaghetti-Os (yay risd).
There are also tunnels from Moses Brown (of which I am an alumni) to the river. I assume other places have these tunnels also. These tunnels were intended for underground railroad related activities. Today, they carry networking and phone cables. I am not sure if the tunnels to the river are intact anymore. There are definitely some grates on the river end and security doors on the other end barring access.
I'm a freshman at the University of Rochester (not to be confused with RIT [Sorry abou that link!]) and we got to see 13 Days in early December. Whne the movie began to encounter all sorts of weirdness, one of the guys running to show got up and told us that there was nothing they could do since I was just a messup with the satellite signal. This leads me to my question:
Does anyone have any info on the system used to send movie previews to colleges via satellite? Encryption? Any way to hijack the signals?

Ximian Gnome doesn't sound as cool as Helix Gnome.
Also "Zimian" was confusingly similar to the KDE team's beverage of choice for coding (sorry couldn't resist a KDE crack).
Just like EFNet undernet is dying. Here's an idea, why not hide the bot's ips from clients and hide server links from clients?
Also, why doesn't someone DDOS this kid's isp. That should make it hard for him to broadcast smurfs or control Trin00/TFN zombies.
How come we haven't seen stuff like this happen on the OpenNap networks yet?
Are there any possible beneficial uses for this technology, like implementing some sort of improved filesystem security model under Linux (or *BSD or Windows) that would be helpful to the BOFH?
Dear Slashdot,
I was exactly like this until my girlfriend and I broke up. We ended up hooking up at the end of the summer before I left for college. After a fight in November, we ended up hooking back up on New Year's. It was good but two days later she told me that she can't go out with me because she needs to feel alone in order to put all her energy into her art. Tell me what I should do. I love her and want her back!
Love,
Ex Machina, Sensitive guy
PS - Sensitive guy is defined as "guy who will go down on chicks"
PPS - Seriously though.... lots of geek guys get art chicks.... Why?
RMS wanted to hear a snappier name for this: piracy
That's what I think. And I'm SURE this will get cracked (like SDMI). Then we'll just use strong cryto combined with next-generation P2P tools to spread content from person to person. Perhaps smart P2P agents will allow an agent to broker a trade of content between two users. Barter based P2P!!! r00l (EGGNOG got to me sorry.:[)
Sun will also be integrating Star Office into Nautilus. Wicked cool! The combination of Mozilla and Star Office will give GNOME some serious clout against MS Orifice.

I think everyone out there knows that we are committed to full disclosure
and the concept of freely available security advisories. Many vendors do
not issue bulletins after we report problems to them, even after they
subsequently fix the problems. Without advisories from independant
researchers there is no check on product vendors. This is a service that we
give to the security community because we think it is the right thing to do
with the fruits of our research. With our new mailing list notification
format we have not changed this one bit.
We are giving out more information now in our advisories than we ever have
before, so we are certainly not witholding anything. Quite the opposite.
Over the past few months we have expanded our overview sections that allow
non-technical people to scope the problem. We have expanded our detailed
technical discussions of issues, many times including detailed source code
examples. And, I think most importantly, we have greatly expanded our
solutions discussion so that people are not always reliant on vendor
patches. We need many was to mitigate vulnerabilities because there are
many environments.
The advisory notifiction format we are using has about the same amount of
information as the paraphrased advisories that Elias posted for the latest
Microsoft advisories and the same amount of information that some other
researchers post in their advisories. This is more than enough information
to decide if the issue at hand effects you and you need to dive deeper into
our analysis.
What we are doing is adding more information than we have in the past and we
are adding it on our web site. There are plans to add much more. We think
that our web site and its accompanying web technology is the best place to
expand our free information dissemination into the future. We have many
ideas in store that I know people will appreciate. Of course, notifications
of important information releases will be made to mailing lists that accept
them so everyone who wishes to can read and use the information. We may
even set up our own notification list if there is a demand for that.
We have stayed away from cluttering up our advisories with marketing gorp,
like ads about our services or ads about our company like many commercial
research teams do. We pride ourselves in publishing our research on an
academic level and always have. This will not change.
Personally I think the native GTK+ port to win32 is cooler than the CYGWIN one. You don't need an X server. Granted GNOME would be a huge task to port since you don't have the POSIXness. Check out the Gimp and GTK+ported to Win32.
