Well, it works just fine on non-selected hardware for many people, and I believe it has a bright long term future - emphasis on believe - but why do we have to argue this over and over - I think I speak for the majority of slashdot when I say - if you don't like Linux, don't use it, and don't pester us, ok? We got the constructive criticism, and there is apparently not enough political will for change, not when retaining technical merit on other fronts, so there is no point in reiterating, ok?
If you want a just works linux machine, then call up System67 and friends. Works like a well oiled machine, just as well as any Mac. Windows has plenty of problems with weird hardware, though it just gives you the finger, and no way to fix it, so - not much better than linux, either.
Hardware probing can get you some sane hardware IDs, thing is, the package system has to be able to handle kernel patching as a part of the installation process, as well as configuration management, see Electra initiative. Where should I submit the feature request?
Until we realize that some network topologies and setups, not to mention connection requirements, well, require a session layer - say, SIP. If you haven't noticed, the IT world has, more or less standardized on a presentation layer protocol - HTTP. Oh, and the application layer is just the semantics the app assigns to the data received by HTTP. So, in short, those who do not know their history, are doomed to repeat it. That aside, I believe that ZFS has layering, just not identical to the classical Unix implementation, which is OK.
Packed binary decimal coding? Though you are gonna need new primitive types, or else use COBOL. Or maybe someone can make a sane, library based, programmer friendly database (with OOT C++ and Lisp APIs). Don't look at me like that - Unix has file locks and semaphores - the rest you can do with NFS.

C++ has pointer arithmetic. That makes a lot of things harder because some programmers want to feel "hardcore".
Slashdot Mirror
Hackable and easy to use are orthogonal. See Fedora. Mandriva.
This list will be enormous. You'll need PostgreSQL to handle it. Lots of IO. On every. Boot. I say - OEMs fix the shit that's broken.

CDMA allows it as well, the carriers don't implement it.
OFDM is what Wi-Fi uses. It sucks, especially with CSMA. OFDMA is what WiMAX and LTE use.
And increase boot time? How about buying decent hardware?
Hairyfeet? Is that you?

Physics jokes. Don't bother - he's just from the same asylum as me.
AAAAA... get an MMU, gramps.
Not to ruin the fun, but z/OS, COBOL, DB/2, VB, MS SQL and MUMPS are great for job security. SPARK Ada as well.
Lead? Try tungsten - much higher Moss hardness - and near twice the density.

Not getting an error is a very serious bug - this should wind up on the LKML. Isn't anyone trying to do something?
Prototype inheritance is a superset of multiple inheritance, so that's an interesting definition of hierarchical.
This is France dude - your worth as a person is not judged by your credit rating.
Get a USB enclosure - and don't you dare throw out that desktop - some people need them - donate it, and spread the word, please.
How costly is reloading the drivers - can't it be set to trigger when the AP list is queried?
I'm 17, with near-zero sex life. I know I'm going to be a dirty old man. I have no choice in the matter. Please don't judge us.
Not enough people got past step one.
Do you mean prototype inheritance, or polymorphism?
