    You don't ./configure with sudo. But you must sudo make install. And what's with that directory name? You should first go and read man pages.

    Yeah, so discriminated that many of them comfortably stayed in The Party.

    BS. There was no "atmosphere of fear". Unless of course your parents did nasty and anti-social things. At age 6 you just started to go to school and were proud to be the Little Octobrist. Unless of course you already learned all your country's (and USSR) history at age 4...

    It is insider's memory. You didn't know it is all too wrong because you didn't know what was right. Only "special" people traveled to non-commies countries and could see the different life. Those not traveling just worked hard and lived their life.

    ... it is a lot better to get a lunch after hunger strike than to die of starvation.

  6. Hardcore repair methods on The Worst Apple Products of All Time · · Score: 1, Funny

    Dropping the computer from a few inches reminds me of the Soviet repair methods that worked for most of technics - couple of punches on the side of TV made those coloured stripes go away :)

    Mozilla: Do you have any identification?

    New tag for stories about yet another event that could maybe trigger the beginning of the end for IE.. Equivalent with "dreamon" and "whatcouldpossiblygowrong"

    Looks like Mr. Sam Ramji will be looking for a new job in a days. If it was "just fuck up", it won't be forgiven by Mr. Flying Chairs.

    Seeing Dell Minis bundled with Ubuntu I thought they will be one of the prime partners.. What's up?

  14. Re:Depends on the game... on What's the Importance of Graphics In Video Games? · · Score: 0

    Planescape: Torment - poor graphics but wonderful story line. If this game was recreated with the same story but in "state-of-art" graphics I probably would moisture my pants (:)

    Does anyone know who actually uses SCO products if any?

    One of Russia's largest banks "Sberbank" in 2007 signed two year contract with SCO official dealers in Russia "Business Console Ltd." about licensing their ~1,500 servers running SCO OpenServer. This fall contract ends. What will they do with their OSes then? Let's wait and see!

    However, there is some evidence that gamma ray bursts might be the product of a sufficiently massive star dying and producing a black hole, in which case we could be in trouble if we were struck be such an event at close range.

    We need to be in the line of sight.

    We are not. Rotational axis is not towards Earth.

    If this were a common occurrence for the earth, it is very likely we would not be here at all.

    There would not be exactly such life here on Earth. You can't say some other form of life (like gamma-rays-absorbing one) could not evolve..
