    And we still haven't planted a flag in every planes in our solar system.

    What you just wrote seems inappropriate.

    I find it sad that humanity stopped expanding as soon as it became a bit hard. And I don't think it's relatively harder now for us to expand than it was a thousand years ago.

    I believe the intention was to make it harder for somebody to install a fake login screen on Windows. I remember reading about that somewhere. The idea was that even if you had a fake login screen running, pressing ctrl-alt-del would pop up the real windows login screen. It was supposed to me more secure that way ;-)

  25. Rebooting the linux servers. on Bill Gates Acknowledges Ctrl+Alt+Del Was a Mistake · · Score: 5, Funny

    I used to work for a small company where we had 10 Linux servers and 1 windows NT box hooked to a Keyboard Video Mouse (KVM) switch. My boss was using the windows server for Webtrends.

    He would never check which server he was on before pressing ctrl-alt-del to login so he would reboot the Linux servers at random causing customers to phone us because they were offline.

    Gladly enough, ctrl-alt-del isn't as hardcoded in Linux that it is in Windows. All I had to do is modify the init scripts to ignore ctrl-alt-del so that solved our problem.
