The armed forces (DoD) are the only portion of the government I want to be self-sufficient. These are the people protecting us from unknown adversaries. Do you really want their food supply (Sodexho) coming from an outside vendor? The military needs to be (and is currently not) completely able to work without any private sector interaction.
General Employment found me the job I am currently working. They called often asking me about current positions they had available and if I would like to interview for them. Most were close matches for my skill set. They did not stop looking until they found me a job. I recommend them to everyone; too bad the Dallas office closed.
This really doesn't seem like a big deal. The virus does not hide very well; it modifies executable files, creates a file in/tmp, only runs as the user that executed the virus. Although it has potential to spread easily; how many *nix users run arbitrary code (attached executables in e-mail)?
Not at all. What I think this means is that the ritual protest (circa 1760 or so); workers against the ruling class; will/has become ineffective. Corporations have moved beyond national and even some global boundaries and are less and less concerned about what protests really go on. Most recent protests have been fairly small historically, but have been involving modern technology. This only means that future protests will have to be more cunning and clever than past ones; a situation that has always been the same. After any mass movemnet the stakes are raised. Look into the labor struggle of the industrial age.
I was wondering what the reasons were behind not
including a low-latency patch; either ingo's or
andrew's. I always apply Andrew's patch before I
try a new kernel. It does help quite a bit. Newer
versions also include support for reiserfs and are
configurable via the/proc fs. It seems like it
would be a good thing to include nowadays.
Mandrake is pretty nice and the installation is the easiest I've ever done. Lot's of software is installed by default, so you need lots of hd space.
Haven't worked with SuSE in a while.
RedHat has a pretty decent install, you need to know some info about your hardware, but it does some autoprobing.
Debian is real nice once it's installed. IMHO it has the easiest packaging system around. Installation is not bad but can get overwhelming.
If you're short on time, install Mandrake. It's the most automated of the bunch. If you have some time to kill, install debian...it has alot of interaction and configuration things going on during the install. SuSE and RedHat fall in the middle.
Although usb and firewire seem nice, are they really usefull? HDD have scsi which is a very nice standard(s); parellel and ps/2 are very versatile and fast enough; scanners and the like (digital cameras...etc) can also use scsi, as can most int/ext devices. Is a new technology worth trashing all existing equipment for?
gnapster, gnutella, freenet...whatever. we have the means to subvert the major labels but not the control over them. All of this is about who controls the means of distribution. Labels are scared because the people are gaining control of what they what to listen/watch and the programs they want to do this with. Profits drop when companies cannot control what people react to. This is a means of control that the people still control but that corporations are desperate to dominate.
Mandrake offers versions of their distro for x86 processors and also for sparc and alpha. No one is limited to a pentium or greater. Usually the non-pentium compiled versions are released long after the pentium version though.

Is Zonk the weekend publisher?

it looks like most of the mirrors have 7.2 on them now

mandrake's site still isn't talking about 7.2 though
