Am I mistaken, or isn't Perl supposed to be a language where the code can be ported across several platforms with very-little-to-no code change (hence why you should sometimes avoid system() or exec() calls)?
Wouldn't Microsoft's proposed implementation of Perl extensions damage this methodology?
Surprised there hasn't been more discussion of Spinner... if you haven't checked it out, look at their format selection. Where else can you get a global, full-on, psychedelia station?

No kidding. Customary law is a simple, yet brilliant concept.
The method by which the US dispenses justice, was designed with good purpose. However, over the years, the US Courts system, has ended up building a set of rigid, yet purely semantical, code of law. This can in turn, be partially blamed on our adversarial method of courtroom procedure. But that's a whole different thread...
...in any case, it's Australia who now has the troubles, let's hope the lawmakers in Australia remove their heads from their posteriors and rescinds this silly legislation.
Since its inception, arguably some of the 'best' (if such a term can be used), most devious, and damaging cracking has its origins under instable and/or repressive european regimes; Germany, Bulgaria come to mind. Repression has always, and will only promote cracking.
This said, is the US prepared for possible repercussions from any 'cyber-warfare'?
:Last year's court ruling sided with the :defendants on nine of :10 counts, but agreed with the :plaintiffs that the $46 million NSI had :collected from customers was :illegal. ...thus, the $46 million was considered illegal.
To make this claim you'd first have to check the ratio of Linux:*BSD submissions against the ratio of L:B posts. You very well might be right, but I'd venture to say that this has something to do with it. If you don't see enough BSD stuff posted, then submit the stories.
Furthermore, like it or not, Linux is in the spotlight today, that's what's getting more press media, thus, more will filter down to slashdot.
On a lighter (yet more political) note, wouldn't a higher ratio of BSD news resemble 'affirmative action', to some degree?:>
Not just Texas, either... sweeps week sweeps not only the airwaves, but the nation, too.
Up here in DC, everyone's up in arms over "the rave scene exposed", about the raves a local club had, where cops or some otherwise 'upstanding citizens' were found to be partying as well.
Threw everyone into a fit, and the club announced the next day that they were shutting down the raves.
...despite your insight, I seriously doubt that's what Silverstein had in mind.
I don't think that he wrote this to illustrate such a model. He wrote many other poems and prosaic pieces that illustrate healthy relationships, and the search for balanced ones. The Missing Piece comes to mind, as do numerous poems, albeit on a more elementary, child-like level.
Without being critical, I'm stymied as to what would lead someone to view this poem from a feminist-historical perspective...
perhaps an even better idea would be an incentive for the spammed to turn in spammers -- ie., if the isp is gonna charge the spammer, tell users in advance that they can get $10 or $20, etc. of that fee, for each spammer they turn in that is successfully nabbed.
SFBG is pretty funny, and their satire is quite convincing sometimes. I dunno how many people (myself included) were at first astounded by their article on THC-Enhanced Oranges. I kept seeing comments praising this "discovery", for weeks afterwards..;)

AFAIK, she doesn't 'appear' older; i.e., her cells have less telomerase, but she doesn't outright show any aging differences.

...I traded away my old TI 99-4/A a few years ago for a guitar. Touted 20k RAM and 26k ROM.
Did have the speech synthesizer though.... quite rad, especially when I played Parsec...

They've only updated the communicator, at this point. There's no new release of the standalone that I know of. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
CNN has this article, a review of the newer Communicator. Supposedly more stable, and, according to this author, slightly faster than MSIE 5
Too bad I only use the standalone...
I dunno... that AlphaLinux penguin looks pretty demonic already, if you ask me....
Dunno about you, but none the better hackers I know learned what they did from the American school system, public or private.

I was just a little pissed to see it drop to zero.
...and now it's -1.
Good god, people, I thought it was somewhat funny. What is this, some sort of attempted backlash at anything slightly resembling aryanism?
It was at least somewhat on topic... who pissed in their wheaties?
ich bin ein der SuSer!
this is new.... and really the only one I found...every other $char.dom I checked was marked as a reserved domain...wierd....
Not seen one. But someone could make a mint off of a emacs beer cooler.
Strange to have an agreement that comes after the fact... that's almost as good as having a license agreement under the shrinkwrap.

how seriously can you take this article, given that the only named locations to download (other than kernel.org) are RedHat and Caldera?
In other words: We know ZD is biting the corporate enchilada. Anything that resembles a company makes eekes its way ahead in ZD World test.

>Problem is, the Net in general doesnt like to be manhandled or bullied.
..problem is, the two tactics most often seen on the net to counteract bad policy are piracy and boycotting.
...No matter how bad LucasFilms were to get tho, you'd never see nerds apply the latter
