The long fight to find Captain Keys (again and again), following with tracking him down one more time and fighting off the fairly tough Covenant to come to a place where the Covenant were getting their collective asses kicked, and then a "sped-up view of the death of the guys before you" movie before a horde of squid-popcorns came out was scarey. Then, a mad dash to get the hell out before some leap-frogging monster whacked the hell out of me. That was a scary game.
The interactive story of a well written game is an awesome thing.
The point you're missing is that he actively supported the software himself. He also provided quality support for the software. Don't think that just b/c it's GPL'ed that someone can or will even provide the same level of support.
This same thing happened to the linux router project. And it's still dead. Yes everyone is replaceable, but someone highly qualified and actually helpful (without a jacka$$ ego) in the OSS world is a rare thing that should be appreciated.
#1. The first rule of Guild Club is, you do not talk about Guild Club. #2. The second rule of Guild Club is, you DO NOT talk about Guild Club.
That's what the interview reads like, a set of rules about how to make a super elite club of ppl to defeat whatever enemy appears. It works, just it is restrictive in that the only goal is to win, other aspects of MMORPGs are not part of the Guild's gesellschaft.

I actually agree with you, but Solaris vs. Redhat isn't the problem. Companies compete and someone must lose. The problem is that they are attacking Linux/Redhat for no good reason. Yes Linux is taking away their low-end market share. But why aren't they trying to sell linux on Sun hardware? They are now, but why not before now? Linux on sparc64 has been available for a while, they could have beaten AMD to the 64bit punch several years ago. Sun is attacking linux on the low end where Sun is losing to linux, but Sun could have been sucessful there years ago with linux. Sun did have several jumps but then would stop projects b/c it wasn't solaris. (Can you say Cobalt.) People were excited when Sun would start to get into linux b/c here was a company that had great hardware to run "unix" on, but after so many fits and starts it's not interesting anymore. The dream (for consumers) was a Sun supported linux running on Sun hardware, but Sun kept continually killing it's own linux efforts.
As a company Sun seems to have multiple personalities when it comes to linux. Even now they are selling linux (SuSE/JDS, also Windows on their AMD's) It just doesn't make a lot of sense to me as a consumer. Also, they are offering discounts on their Opteron servers if you have an MCSE, but not if your Solaris Certified. Definate conflicting 'personalities'.
I was a supporter of Sun until they started doing this. I like the platform and the hardware, I can't say I'm excited about Solaris, but that's b/c most of what I need it for can be done w/ linux. I do believe that Solaris is a better solution for some situations, but that has changed and linux can do most of those things now, and I'm leaning toward linux more than ever. These things have made me reconsider my support of Sun in general.
The Linux Doc Project also has a HOWTO in their archive:
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Loopback-Encrypted-Fil es ystem-HOWTO.html
You will want to check around though, a lot of the information appears to be very old. Also, the 2.6 kernel has a lot more encryption routines built into it, so using 2.6 changes how it's done. (but it still is basicly mounting an encrypted file using a loop-back mount point)
It's also too cold to have used the Wood Elf Base. Then the trees could have walked to a new location closer to the mine. Probably not enough trees to grow one though.
PAM is for sorting/utilizing multiple local authentication & authorization schemes. The article is refering to a server-side application that has all of the authorization and authentication information stored on it(and even more info, groups, printers, servers, services, etc). The OpenDAS would allow people to setup directory and group info independant of local machines, and this information would be used enterprise wide. OpenDAS is a really good idea and working in the enterprise for several years now, I realize it is a very much needed feature of linux.
It's do-able but segment out the functions at that point. Do you really want to try to route between subnets as iptables is traversing the masq table? Get three boxes; one box for routing, one for vpn traffic and one for actual firewall/masqing. IBM has crypto boards for accelerating SSL/IPSec stuff with linux drivers IIRC for your vpn box. Also, with three boxes you can take down the vpn without taking down the internet connection.
I would suggest getting PIII's instead of PII's though, but check where bottle neck's may be PCI bus, CPU processing packets, NIC not doing so well... etc. Plus if one box is connected to multiple subnets, it can be dhcp and/or dns and/or wins for them (if you do DNS please use the forwarder's option to forward dns requests to an upstream DNS server if possible).
Try Emm Gryner, an asian girl from Canada. Pretty good music. http://www.emmgryner.com
She's got music on iTunes, otherwise it's a $17+ import on her site. But the CD on her site doesn't match the one availible on iTunes.
Are we talking Fundamentalist Christian or Fundamentalist SomethingElse?
Blood, petrification, and prejudice are all in the Bible. What Fundamentalist Christian's object to (from what I've heard so far) is the presentation of magic and witchcraft. Those are both counted as evil in the Bible and to be avoided. The responsiblity of a Christian parent is to help your kids realize the difference between seeing Harry Potter as 'entertainment' and seeing Harry Potter's magic as something you would want in your life.
People that call themselves Christians and object to the blood and scary things just because there's blood and scary things need to re-read the Bible. The crucifixition was a horrible act of murder and it is a fundamental part of the Christian faith (following with the resurrection), but we still read about it with our kids.
There are a lot of scary things out there other than Harry Potter; pedofiles, people who abuse their families, rapists, etc. Harry Potter is fluff compared to those monstrosities. Harry P. wins in the end but, these other things can lead to a lifetime of hurt. We as Christian's should fight these things and seek to remove them from life and provide healing to those hurt instead of fighting a children's movie
This is also the same fight Dr. Who had for a while there with the Committee on Decency(?) in England. The committee thought that to many gothic horror shows were bad for the kids and Dr. Who writers were forced to change what they wrote.
Linus has yet to post a message to linux-kernel since his return, but he continues to merge patches at a high rate.
What's cool about this is that people are watching kernel development without having to read the lkml or being on irc or whatever. People can now just watch the patches flow into the bk system. I think that's kind of cool. It's like a Kernel News Network.
Actually, I'm wondering why they need to coordinate the analysis in realtime. What's the factor that makes realtime analysis and the bandwidth needed for that necessary? Pulling the data together after the fact and then analyzing it shouldn't result in a different conclusion of facts based on the data.
Are you using linux natively compiled for the crusoe or windows for iX86? That could be the difference there. Try dual booting the linux crusoe distro and windows and see if it still feels sluggish. It's not a scientific test by a long shot but i'm betting that's part of the problem.
How about a complete and total replacement for the DNS? We have now P2P filesharing systems, can a P2P DNS be developed?
I know that the ARPANET decentralized naming scheme lead to the need for our current DNS, but current technology should allow us to create some kind of alternative and now is the time to do it. IP6 is coming into use making this is a good time to come up with a decentralized naming scheme to replace/supplement the current DNS.
My question would be, what would happen if the registry were taken out? If we lose the domain registry would current holders be allowed to take-up their domains again or would the squatter-wars happen all over again. Of course, this is also assuming that Verisign didn't bother to back up the registry machines...
Since when is it permissible for a school to dictate what a student can say outside of the school? The students have free will outside of the school setting and as long as the speech isn't threating it is protected by the First Amendment. (isn't it?) This speech was disparaging but not threating (according to this account at least).
It is a cool little 64-bit box, and replacing Solaris with Linux is probably the first thing I would do with it. This would make 64-bit development much easier for Linux programmers with a 64-bit box this cheap. It isn't a server machine, but with SCSI hard drives it could be. So we need Linux support for the UltraSparc-IIe processor (if it isn't there arleady.)
