I'm using soft updates on my BSD system. It's fast, stable, no fscking after a dirty reboot. Anyone know of benchmarks comparing this to ext3 or riser?
Not necessarily. The creationist view would be that God created men, apes and whatever this creature was. It's just extinct now. The fact that it has similarities to other species in and of itself is not proof of common ancestry. Evolution is one theory that explains it, creation is another.
I was once asked if I could put Charlie Root on the line. The person had aparently recieved some email from him. This is the default real name for the root user on FreeBSD.
I should move to France. With MP4 encoding I'll be able to get unlimited music/movies for life for a one time fee of a few bucks! I'd think the MPAA would be pissed about this.
There is nothing wrong with helping people. I give more than 10% of my gross income to charities! The point is that it's *my* choice! It is wrong for anyone - you - the government - society - *anyone* - to take what is mine at the point of a gun for any purpose whatsoever. Even if you have good intentions it's still theft. You'll do much better by serving the needs you see around with what *you* earn voluntarily. I do, so until you're giving more than 10% of your income to help the needy, don't you *dare* call me selfish or greedy for not wanting to be robbed.
I'm not denying that there are people in need. I just don't believe that their needs *entitle* them to my property and my work. I gave more than 10% of my gross income to charities that help people in need. How much did you give? If I weren't taxed at 50% I would have given twice as much and helped a lot more people than the government did with my money. Do you have any idea how bad the government is at that sort of thing?
You're just plain wrong... Anguilla does it. They've become very affluent very quickly as a result. I'm not an anarchist. I just think the government does way too much and does it poorly. I'd gladly pay for the services I receive. I resent having my money stolen at gunpoint.
A free marketplace takes care of all those details you mentioned a lot more cheaply and effeciently than any government program could ever hope to.
If you feel so strongly about other people's NEEDS, why don't you help them? Why don't you convince me to help them? Their need does not make it okay to put a gun to my head and rob me to support them. Their need does not entitle them to my effort and the work of my hands. If they have any dignity left as human beings, they would not themselves rob me in person. They would plead their case and ask me for help.
So you suggest that just because he's got a lot of money, he shouldn't whine about having it stolen? Why don't you do something useful, invent a new product or improve a production process, make a bunch of money, and then you can give it away to whoever you choose. Many of the very rich in fact do this. Not many I think give it to the government, because they suck at helping those charity cases that are truly in need.
I did't agree to that. I don't think the government is the best organization to build these things. In fact, the public schools, as a whole, absolutely suck! In a free society people exchange value for value, voluntarily. In a looter's society, those in power take what they want at the point of a gun, and give whatever they feel you need in order to keep providing them with your wealth.
Not true. Taxes are not necessary. If the government were limited to it's constitutional roles, it could easily be funded with tarrifs.
You suggest that we shouldn't have to produce anything valuable to society and earn money to put our kids through school. If you are unwilling or unable to produce enough wealth to support yourself and your family, then you're a charity case. You're not entitled to a living, you must earn it.
What makes you think that just because they have lots of money, that you're entitled to a single penny of it? If the government didn't take people's money by force, a whole lot more of us would have more of it. Then we could afford to pay for our own schools and health insurance. Forced alturism is just plain theft and you're just a looter.
There are many materials lighter and stronger than steel. If that were the only important criteria, all modern structures would be made of carbon fiber. Since structures are big, and require lots of material, the most important question is: how much does it cost?
Sorry if I offended you. I only meant to point out that Switzerland is very different, not to pass judgement. I and a lot of Americans find the laws silly, the Swiss do not.
I think you'll find that the Swiss tend to be very supportive all the silly laws the government passes. My favorite is that you must turn your car off if you are sitting at a light for longer than 30 seconds or so. They're not as fond of their personal freedoms as we are in the states.
it gets a little more complicated than just clicking the same link a lot of times, basicly you want to detect any bots or people not really interested in the site, just the racking up money for goto.
I believe what they have patented is more of a business model. Their proprietary algorithms are more in the arena of fraud detection, people clicking on the same $4 gambling link 100 times. These are kept as trade secrets instead of being patented.
We used perl regular expressions and lex/yacc like tools to tease structured data out of semi structured web pages and other listings. It's doable if you limit your scope to one particular subject, such as job listings. The hardest part is creating contextual lexicons. Does MS mean that a master degree is required? The job is located in Mississippi? Expreince with Microsoft products is required? The hr contact is Ms. Smith? You have to figure it out based on context. Is MS preceded by a city name, that type of thing.
I run an open 802.11b access point. My network is as insecure as it gets. It's good practice anyway to assume your network is insecure. That's why I use ssh/scp/stunnel for all my network traffic that includes a password.

anyone know what this is?
disk #2: Safedisk 2.51, game, no idea
disk #3: Tages, game, design reminds me of star wars
disk #4: cactus, audio cd, obviously the fast and
