Out of the mouths of babes.....
So basically you're saying I can walk into your house uninvited, deface something in your house, like say, the report you've been working on for the boss for the last six weeks, or that homework paper thats due midterm, and then expect a slap on the wrist for such actions? Have you no respect for the personal property of others?
I'm not suggesting "murder" level prosecution, but most CERTAINLY not the slap on the wrist a littering charge would engender.
Being April Fool's Day, I'll reserve judgement on some things. However, I AM saddened by the loss of the leading non-syndicated comic strip, Userfriendly. ..
It says to amend the GPL (section 10), to include a proviso for the NCL if you're releasing sftwre under the NCL. Did I miss something here? Where in the GPL does it say you can legally alter it to include such a thing? Isn't that illegal? ...
I thought Intel was shipping the chips with this feature defaulted to OFF? -

We just got a new Netfinity. Died less than 24 hours after firing it up for a burn in. A week later and STILL waiting for a resolution. Not the best service record I've seen by far. And since this problem *appears* to be hardware related, I can only imagine what'd be in store for any Linux/Netfinity combo. At least the boxes LOOK nice, albeit an expensive doorstop for our server room.:) ------------------------------------------------ -

I will be converting all GIFs to PNG regardless.
Let UniSys have their patent(s). I will in no way
support UniSys or GIF images.
Its about time. I have asked a lot of users on EFNET #Linux to email ATI about releasing spec. Seems they've finally bowed to pressure. Cool.
