And we need a country-wide law that will prevent minors from having access to digital video camera's, digital camera's or cell phones with digital camera's so other teens won't be tempted to do what these poor, disturbed, but well-parented teens have done.
Is that all!What if she were to get out of a bath and look in a mirror? or worse, after having sex with her boyfriend he were to look in a mirror and see an image of her naked! hell he could just remember what she looks like naked, the only thing for it then is a lobotomy.
For starters the summary is bullshit nobody is suggesting replacing history with wikistudies (what they are doing is removing a lot of the bullshit regulations,targets & goals), just that teaching kids how to use internet resources wisely (e.g not wasting time arguing on slashdot) is a good idea, just think of all the times you tell somebody to just fucking google it. they also say
It emphasizes traditional areas of learning - including phonics, the chronology of history and mental arithmetic
Which are much more useful that a list of facts i learn't about the Tudors when i was 12. Additionally the proposal is NOT being made by ofsted, so the entire summary is just retarded.
He was taking school in Massachusetts before and the kid just loves it over in the UK, why you ask? Because it's way easier!
Interesting, is your brother less than 11 though, i think the UK system may be much easier at primary school. It seams i had an easier time in primary school than my cousins in Spain, but by the time we leave secondary school we are pretty much par with the EU/US (give or take believing in creationism), its only china that seam to be able to produce large numbers of smarter kids (could be that they only export the smart ones though)
hey my internet aliases were damn anonymous, until Mozilla went and ruined it all but as i don't post much that i wouldn't say to peoples faces it doesn't really matter anyway.
Because i don't like my art to be free market, if its all about the profit you get mostly crappy films and mostly crappy lawsuits. Things like firefly & futurama get canceled while shit like lost & the simpsons run for years. I'd much rather watch a good independent film that made £1 than a shit Hollywood flick that made £1M
Sex is one thing, nudity is another my dad had no problem with me watching total recall (there is a non-sexual seen with 3 nipples in it:O) when i was >10. If your that insecure that you think looking at a blue shiny penis for 30minutes will turn you gay then you might as well come out the closet now.
I think you were using Xubuntu wrong, i had 256mb ram and a celeron (1.2GHz IIRC) working as my primary os with kubuntu and it ran well (unless i ran firefox2+compiz at the same time)
There are at least 36 Slashdot comments so far, and not one of them is bitching about Xiaohang going over to America and taking all yer physicist's jobs/university places. Come on guys if i don't see something bitching about the chinks soon, I'll just have to assume you've seen the follies of nationalism and go troll elsewhere.
There are OpenSource tools which handle re-flashing of most BIOSes.
/quote> Really? Last time i needed to flash a bios i had to use freedos and a proprietary installer, needless to say it was a PITA to do from a linux install. I knew that there are basically only 2 major BIOS manufacturers (perhaps half a dozen more small time ones), but any chance of some links to these opensource tools?
...I think you can see where this is going: if thereâ(TM)s a lot of data waiting to be written to disk, and Firefoxâ(TM)s (sqliteâ(TM)s) request to flush the data for one file actually sends all that data out, we could be waiting for a while. Worse, all the other applications that are writing data may end up waiting for it to complete as well. In artificial, but not entirely impossible, test conditions, those delays can be 30 seconds or more. That experience, to coin a phrase, kinda sucks...
its safe to assume your software will be running on systems that run ext3 or rieser4, so slowing down most peoples systems for the benifit of ext4 users will NOT be appreciated!
fsync_then_rename()
this is not needed and a terrible idea. Operations on a file should take place in the order they were committed (i dont care if you commit files out of order but each file should be dealt with correctly (and preferably minimally)) or do you want an rename_then_fsync , fsync_then_delete... commands for every single in/plausible situation?
thats why its time for andriod style security on the desktop , firefox should ONLY be able to write to a downloads folder & its profile, OO should ONLY be able to read/write to disk, NO network access,.
isnt that just a bookmark directions from (where i am) to (destination) and automatic reloading the page, you could do that in a firefox/opera extension...oh right!
However, I would prioritize traffic. Email, web, SSH, et al come first; after that, all p2p protocols in order of usefulness.
and when the p2p users encrypt their torrents?
You need to define your business audience. If it's people who are going to check the mail and web surf, and 5% of your customers are p2p users, cut out the p2p users and focus on the people you want to serve.
dumb idea. 95% of users are clueless and when faced with getting an ISP (or changing it) will do what the other 5% recommend. Given the large overlap between p2p users and the people are listens to by their friends on technical matters, pissing off that 5% is a bad move!
BTW, a "ssh for loop" and $1 will buy you a nice candy bar.
There are more elegant ways of doing it, like puppet, a local repo with cronjobs to update, etc, but whats wrong with an ssh for loop that gets the job done?
Slashdot Mirror

several cups? people like this guy clearly bath in the stuff.
brb, church!

Yeah if much rather be from a country where you can leave school believing in creationism as science.

Erm shouldn't fancy stuff like 3d acceleration be handled by plug-ins not browsers? I don't even think putting ogg in the browser was a good idea!
offsite backup much?
or just tweaking your book process (using bootchart + changing your init scripts) and maybe even a custom kernel
I think you were using Xubuntu wrong, i had 256mb ram and a celeron (1.2GHz IIRC) working as my primary os with kubuntu and it ran well (unless i ran firefox2+compiz at the same time)
As does kasbar (kde3.x)

1. you still lose your settings under ext3 which "bad code" does not
2. this relies on sane behavior of the OS, no standards required.
3. http://shaver.off.net/diary/2008/05/25/fsyncers-and-curveballs/

firefox is firefox, it runs on linux, it can be exploited on linux. NOSCRIPT FTW
thats why its time for andriod style security on the desktop , firefox should ONLY be able to write to a downloads folder & its profile, OO should ONLY be able to read/write to disk, NO network access,.
good code - unless there is a crash during the writing of the file, in which case your software is screwed next time you try and read the config file.
bad code - safe as long as the filesystem isn't ext4 or really old versions of XFS/reiserfs.
fixed code - yeah lets abuse fsync and slow the users system down.

Send out an email to all customers stating that due to the abuse of a minority of users
using bandwidth you've paid for is not abuse!
find me one thing a group policy does that cant be done with apt, cron & ssh or puppet?
