  1. Shit for brains, I read the Executive Summary. on WSJ Says Linux Lags · · Score: 1

    And it tells just about zero regarding their methodologies.

    Yeah, there's more to a study than the results. You must manage something. Pity.

  2. One hell of a hacked IP stack on Linux Based Router · · Score: 1

    Which explains why FreeBeasties only used to quote loopback numbers to compare to the new Linux stack. "Ooh! FreeBSD is faster over loopback than Linux over the wire. Film at 11." -- Linus T.

    They're both good, and my P100 with an EEPro 100 card has no problems saturating a 100BT line.

  3. And do you have a Username/Password? on WSJ Says Linux Lags · · Score: 1

    Yeah, numbnuts, it's a subscriber-only document. The available one doesn't have a discussion of Linux.

  4. Cross compile. on Linux 2.2.5 Released · · Score: 1

    With the appropriate binaries, you can cross-compile from your PII to your Sparc20 and cut down a whole pile of problems.

    Heck, a lot of kernel work is done via cross-compiling for older architectures.

  5. NT box, even. on The Science of Star Trek · · Score: 1

    I knew that one with the "too many users" message, which I've never seen an Apache server give. Sure, it probably can, but I've never seen it.

  6. Twas a very old chat on RMS Immature, Slashdot and Community Arrogant? · · Score: 1

    It happened almost a year ago, I believe, but the occasionally happened on irc.ggi-project.org (I forget the real name of the server).

  7. Damn, you are blind. on Lycos Mp3 Lawsuit? · · Score: 1
    What part of "(this post is smiley-captioned for the humor impaired)" did you not read?

    Sheesh. :)

  8. And RIAA is still full of it. on Lycos Mp3 Lawsuit? · · Score: 1

    As long as you do not distribute it, there's this little annoyance law (annoyance for RIAA) which basically allows you to copy and not distribute anything you have purchased.

  9. Erm, no, GGI was damn near bullied into changing on RMS Immature, Slashdot and Community Arrogant? · · Score: 1

    Let me quote (from the IRC talk you were on, I remember you :)

    "If it's not BSDLed, it's not going in FreeBSD. That's all there is to it."

    Aweful damn pissy, IMNSHO.

  10. I thought I was the only one... on Biochips may lead to Star-Trek-like tricorders · · Score: 1

    ...who had seen Simply Irresistible. Wow.

  11. Northwest Cable or some such. on Saving MST3K · · Score: 1

    I have no idea if they're independent or owned, though.

  12. Israeli != Israeli Kibbutz on Gingrich: No taxes on e-commerce, T1s for all · · Score: 1

    There is a big difference. Maybe one day you'll figure it out.

  13. MediaOne is not the crappiest cable company. on Saving MST3K · · Score: 1

    The one in Sandpoint, ID is. We're finally getting the Sci-Fi channel on the most expensive cable plan. We have just added Starz as an option (and it costs 2x as much as it does 80 miles away), and they have no clue what a cable modem is.

  14. But Microsoft says on Mozilla M3 Release Available Now · · Score: 1

    Microsoft says that IE is the most standards-compliant browser. They say that nothing renders more to the standards than IE.

    Now, shit for brains, do you get to play with pre-alpha copies of IE5? Did you compare NS 4.51 to the pre-alpha copy of IE5? No, of course not. Gee, that would be terrible to do because it would disadvantage IE.

    No, I don't look at the code. I've never even compiled it. What Open Source means is that users who chose to can submit bug reports to get things fixed faster with more liklihood of them actually getting fixed.

  15. Maybe so, but it's still statistically wrong. on Feature:Free Linux · · Score: 1

    He made the comments about a single install from a single distribution with a specific set of options. Probably had the box setup as a programming box.

  16. But he wanted to be like you. on Review:Developing Linux Applications with GTK+ and GDK · · Score: 1

    So don't get so uppity.

  17. Prolly does that series. on Miscellaneous GNU News · · Score: 1

    They describe this series of 35 steps to wipe data, and I'd guess shred does that?

  18. Until, of course, you want to display a page. on Mozilla M3 Release Available Now · · Score: 1

    Then, the fact that IE5 can't even properly render plain HTML is going to hurt.

    But, oooo, this is something that we would never normally see, now isn't it. We have the release that would normally only be used inside Netscape. Gee....

  19. Apprunner is the dog. on Mozilla M3 Release Available Now · · Score: 1

    Viewer works much nicer.

  20. Heh, it makes my radio go fritzy. on Mozilla M3 Release Available Now · · Score: 1

    Every time I click on something in Gecko, my walkie-talkie goes staticy on me.

  21. 17 database servers. on IBM Exec Says no Large Web Servers on Linux · · Score: 1

    Now, let's count the total number of servers to power all of microsoft.com. Over 200.

  22. Your bandwidth problems... on IBM Exec Says no Large Web Servers on Linux · · Score: 1

    ...do not constitute a Linux flaw on our part.

  23. no, only a grain on IBM Exec Says no Large Web Servers on Linux · · Score: 1

    Linux handles 64-bit with the sole exception of physical RAM.

  24. try again on IBM Exec Says no Large Web Servers on Linux · · Score: 1

    the mail servers are Solaris

  25. Linux does 64 processors, too. on IBM Exec Says no Large Web Servers on Linux · · Score: 1

    Only on Sun boxes, but it is true.

    Plus, we have the (hands down) fastest network layer and process creation times.
