I tried searching MIT's website to find out what textbook(s) they use for their database courses and guess what? They don't have any!
Perhaps they have renamed their database course to "information storage" or something dumb like that and I couldn't find it on their web site. Have you ever searched a course catalog for "information storage". You'll hit every fucking CS class they have.
So...do you want to see my, er, distro? I'll install it on your, ah, hardware for, er, free. Your cat may, ah, watch, if you want.
Have you used the, um, scientific method to test your cat hypothesis or are you making important life decisions based on, er, anecdotal evidence? Perhaps you think making such a statement will make you somehow "wierd" and therefore more intersting, hmm?
You are a language elitist. An effective method to unjustly discriminate against a group of people is to disparage their dialect. There is no "goodness" ordering of words. Have you ever read _Nineteen Eighty-Four_?
People who express themselves using "fuck" are no less worthy than you when you use your multisyllabic words. The word "fuck" may cause you discomfort. Nevertheless, "fuck" exists. People are fucking all the time. Grok and cherish "fuck".
You should run the firewall like me. Then you can say whatever you want, eg "Fuck the skull of Jesus"--hey wait a minute, what are you doing in the server room--aaarrgh

Also note that because a perl script is interpreted its code actually goes in the data segment, not the text segment. Hence there is no memory sharing of scripts among the httpds.
Do you live in Redmond or the surrounding area? If you did you would soon realize how easy it is to pick out MS snots or their cohorts. Their overinflated egos and frat-boy mentality make them easy targets.
Setup your firewall to log all packets it denies (or log all packets period). This creates a possible DOS atttack, however. Then write a perl script that parses the log file and produces reports based on src ip or whatever you want to group by.
If you used the most flexible mua in the world, namely mh, then you could easily write a simple script that would add seamless support for gpg, such as I did one afternoon.
No, you must use your monolithic mua which makes it hard to add features. Otherwise, you're too lazy to hack the source to add the feature yourself.
I used an Apple//e for a terminal once but, due to the size of the old monitor, it was too clunky. I used a 25ft null serial cable, an apple Super Serial Card (max speed 9600bps) and Ascii Express.
The novelty wore off too. But oh, how I loved playing Robotron again!
Why /dev/cua* is deprecated: lock files

Suppose:/dev/cua0 and/dev/ttyS0 point to the same device. Your pppd uses/dev/cua0 and lock file/var/lock/LCK..cua0. You accidentally start minicom on/dev/ttyS0. Seeing no lock file/var/lock/LCK..ttyS0 in place, it happily trounces your ppp connetion.
This is why symbolic links such as/dev/modem are bad too. If a program doesn't test for a link then it will pick the incorrect lock file.
Apache is a killer app for Linux. Hence a new release is important news.
I scan freshmeat, but everyday there are about 100 entries about lame kde frontends to e.g., tar. Important software announcements sometimes get lost in the noise.
Well, when I was in college my friends and I did a performance art piece for open mic night where we smashed up a tv.
It began with some nice space music playing as we slowly danced around in ignorant bliss. Then a loud shriek occurred, indicating that we were suddenly aware of the annoying tv. We retrived some long wooden sticks. One guy ran at the TV and fairly easily smashed the picture tube with his stick.
We proceeded to pulverize the tv completely, smashing it up for about 5 minutes. End of show.
It was a shame that we didn't do such a good job sweeping up the glass and debris because some lamers came out next in barefoot to do a cover of a Depeche Mode song.
Take heed, all you pre-college slashheads out there. Contrast this wonderfully creative way of destoying a tv with the lame way the AC did in tech school. Liberal arts schools are the way to go.
I expect ticket prices in Seattle to move toward New York and LA prices. Cinplexx Odeon recently increased from $7 to $7.50 and Pacific Place started at $8. I guess Cinerama will be $12.
My question is: who are all these rich fuckers in Seattle and where did they get their money? If I see one more luxury SUV I will barf. Wait, Microsoft is near Seattle (cue scene of disgruntled me loading shotgun). If I see another Microsoft idiot thinking they are God's gift at the Catwalk...Was this trip really neccessary?
I worked at a startup branch that was supposed to offer long distance (don't know if they do yet--I left). A monolithic piece of software was developed in-house that ran on 20 suns using Tuxedo and and Oracle. It was supposed to provision your service, setup billing, etc..
One of the problems was that it was nearly impossible to tell what the hell it was doing at any one time and if it fucked up at one point then the whole setup was basically screwed.
Another problem was that the IT director was a dork. He required his personal signature to order a mouse.
At one point they hired Sun Professional Service (read $$$$$$$$) to come in and fix things.
I don't know if the software was ever brought to a usable state. I pity the poor bastards that were working 80 hour weeks to get it going. (Then again, they were contractors, so screw 'em.)

A piece of hardware is linux compatible iff there are kernel drivers for it. Thus, e.g., winmodems are not linux compatible whereas my 3c509 is.
