When a kernel is released, I want to know about it. and who in their right mind looks at freshmeat every fucking day?
When you have problems with a current kernel you look at any resource which can help you.
If there's no problem with your kernel you don't need to upgrade.
For example, where Ruby has a * operator for strings and perl has the x operator which does essentially the same, PHP (also a very string oriented language) uses str_repeat().
* after a string isn't an operator in Ruby. It's a method of the class String.
There just aren't enough hours in the day for me to learn all of these languages.
Ruby is different. It's really easy to learn when you know other languages.
I have to cite the paperback of "Programming Ruby": Guided by the Principle of Least Surprise, Ruby embodies the values of consistency and simplicity of expression
OK, say you want 10 dashes. You can write it the hard way.
10.times { print '-' }
or the ease way
print '-' * 10

Secure IRC?

The IRC protocol is a badly designed protocol. Permitting DCC connections is a security risk to your computer or network, because DCC is even stupider than active ftp.
Slashdot Mirror
I'm getting more and more replies from abuse departments written in HTML. :-/
... seeing anti censorship articles on Slashdot.
And by the way: how long do I have to wait until getting back moderation rights?
There are two quotes from X-Men everyone remembers. And both are from Joss Whedon.

These are completely different worlds. Morpheus is a windows program and giFT doesn't even mention the supported platforms on it's download page.
Hmm. The last Borland product I used was Turbo Pascal for CP/M. Running on an Apple IIe.
I hope now they have the right software to fix the open relays. We don't need no further spam from Korea.
... and a few months later Steve Jobs will decide to drop it.
No way.
You mean UTC, not GMT.
And by the way: I'd like to select ISO 8601 for displaying the date. Which was possible in the old version of slashcode.
kernel 2.4.18
Do KDE-developers really think GNOME is competing with them?
Except my English.
It's a free country.
Can't see why this post is funny.
C64 -> Amiga -> Linux
And it will never be available.
Why should a DB admin be interested in MySQL?

It's even easier. The numbers in Ruby are all objects with interesting iterator methods.
0.upto(20) {|x| puts x}

That's why I use SAFT instead.
SAFT/sendfile
I've given up waiting in the year 1995. And I'm glad about it.
At least in Germany.
But you can see the differences between the services.
After ORBS closed we switched to RBL and all the SPAM got through. RBL simply has no effect.
