    I find it rather interesting that you define two classes of sexuality: heterosexuality and homosexuality.

    What about the sexuality I am going through at the moment? Its called "NoNosexuality".

    Everywhere I ask I get the answer "No" , "No".

  12. reiserfs is mature on Why Redhat Choose ext3 For 7.2 · · Score: 1

    we have had been using Reiserfs in production, on servers (both inhouse and on my client sites), on desktops, laptops, raid, FC raids etc for about 2 years. Never had a problem with it, even when using NFS.

    Most client sites have had been up for a few months without any problems.

    So, ext3 might make into those sites who only install what is on the distribution, but wont replace ReiserFS, which was there first(when it was needed) so easily.

    BTW, SuSE has been shipping Reiserfs for more than a year now on their distributions. Current versions allow you to put root disk as well as others on ReiserFS.

    Oh and please dont talk about the migration path issues (loosing old data etc).

    Migrating from anything to anything else require backups, backups, backups and redundancy, redundancy, redundancy.

    Example: If I have to move from ext2 to reiser, I will just create a second partition/volume, format it with the new filesystem, and use that without touching/destroying the old system so I can fallback to it.

    Oh and IMHO the reason to put ext3 instead of Reiser/JFS/XFS as default is the same like putting Gnome instead of KDE as the default DE.
    Well something has to be default.

    I have read the article and I could read the benifits of ext3 over ext2 but didnt read any benifits of ext3 over anyOtherJournalingFS.

  13. Ill use it when it can play DVDs on BSD User's Review Of OS X · · Score: 0

    I bought a powerbook to use as a multimedia machine, I use it for light browsing, sometimes to read my mails, watch movies(DVDs) and play music.
    I bought MacOSX as soon it was available, I gave up on it, because I had to switch to MacOS9 to play DVDs. So Ill stick to a dual boot of Linux(for work) and MacOS9(for play) setup for a while.

  22. Best strategy: Be yourself on Moving From Tech Into Management? · · Score: 1

    I have read all responses, so I am not sure if what I am going to write is already written.

    I am a pure techie too, and now have to manage the ISP/IT department for the company I work for.

    I think this is the best move I have made. People who work for me are quiet happy with me, cause I underStand that they can get drunk and not come to work the next day. On the otherhand, they too underStand that when there is work to do, there is no day or night.

    They are pretty happy that Word Documents or any other Microsoft stuff is now banned comming to IT department.

    If there is stuff like that coming from customers, it has to be filtered through the project managers and has to be transformed into text or html format.

    Starting work ours are undef and so are finishing work hours.

    Either I am a very bad manager or a very good one.

    Looking into my bank account from the money that my employees are making for me, I think that I am doing the job pretty well.

    Too bad you have some assholes above you that dont understand you.

    We banned Amazon for patents, we can bann sony too.

    Will someone start a website against sony to let a larger audience know what they are doing, and perhaps on the site, there should be links to each alternate of any Sony product.
    For example, in sony Monitors section, we can have links to other Monitor verdors, do a price/feature comparision etc.

    Sony cannot beat the internet.
