Also, KDE causes some troubles by sticking its menus into Xfce. I just installed a pure Xubuntu machine and it works great. I plan to do the same for 12.04 when the Xubuntu image comes out. I also do Slackware, and installing Slackware without any KDE gave me a clean Xfce, too (I call it Xlackware).
Are hoping that the stupidity of SOPA and proposals like it are a one time thing. If not, then be sure the protest won't be, either. And if it tries to sneak through, expect things to move to the next level (yes, there is a next level).
If an attack does come from overseas, just turn off the pipes (power off whatever devices the physical undersea fibers connect to). The problem with this is that they are likely setting up a massive botnet within the target country that cannot be blocked by such a method. And we do see that the government tends to not care to shut down botnets, even now.
I did some of the football announcements while in high school. We had to learn to ignore our own voice. I did suggest ear plugs, but was told it wasn't hard to learn to ignore the PA system echos. And he was right. Just a little practice and you no longer hear it. So for people like me, this device will be ineffective. If it gets used widely, I suspect its effectiveness will, over time, wear off.
They know where your encrypted packets are going. That is, unless you also encrypted the destination IP address (and if that's so, then I know where your packets are going).
Updating a cert over 100 servers is not hard. Doing so over 10000 servers is no harder, but it takes longer for the script to run though the list. You did run this as a scripted batch update, right? You aren't logging into each server manually, right?
As long as WE are claiming SOFTWARE as the reason patents should be invalid, then we will NOT be stopping the REAL reason MOST patents should be invalid, which is that they are STUPID... lacking any genuine INNOVATION.
If you are ripping a CD, then 24-bit gains you nothing. Just be sure to not modify the audio, which FLAC accomplishes just fine. Of course, if your source is 24-bit at a 192k sample rate, you preserve it best by encoding FLAC at the same number of bits and same sample rate.
BTW, the Nyquist limit that says you can encode at twice the sample rate applies when encoding a single sine wave. A mix of multiple sine waves requires more to get them accurate. And I have not heard any music recently that is made entirely of pure sine waves. This "CD quality" thing is not really all that great. 24@192 is better (of course, if you don't destroy it along the way).
They just wanted to get in on a new business model that turns out to be a dud. Looks like someone with enough cash can buy a ready-built data center for (relatively) cheap. What it would be useful for is unknown. Google and Facebook build their own, their own way (likely a whole lot better).
Democrats would cross over to vote for Santorum just to sabotage any chance for Republicans to beat Obama. Santorum has no hope in the general election while Romney actually has a slim chance.
The L's have been about letting anyone do anything to screw anyone any which way they want, for decades. I figured that out in the first L party (and last) L part meeting I attended. The only difference between the L's and the R's is that the R's want to limit this ability to screw anyone any which way they want to just the rich (via corporations).
I didn't need to read beyond "robocall" to know that there was something very seriously wrong with this candidate. Now the R's have shown they have no worthy horse in the race. And we already know the D's are going to have no race at all.
Slashdot Mirror
Won't happen until 2017 when they run out of letters after Zany Zebra.
Based on some people's complaints, maybe it should have been Pooping Pachyderm.
cdimage has only DVDs and other obscure images for Ubuntu, almost everyone will want the CDs.
Really? It's 2012. I find most people don't even want DVDs any more. :p
USB memory sticks FTW!

Better yet, just install Xubuntu from the start and save the bother. Or Linux Mint when it updates.
The article references conversations as secret, not the phone. Titles do get morphed on Slashdot. That's just the way of things.
It started as TRIPLE-ROT13, though.

... and some big rubber bands ... in 2 directions.
But with the possible exception of a meteor strike, there's always someone to blame for a data center problem.
I always blame Anonymous Coward. He's the one that failed to order the meteor sheilds.

Proof that social engineering is how security fails. It's not the techs to blame. It's the executives ... the dishonest rich.

***No one*** challenged me nor asked me if they could help me. I looked **utterly lost, tired, and miserable**.
You were obviously seen as a non-threat in that condition.

Record once, play once, technology. After that, the recording is modified (generally for the worse, except in the case of Justin Bieber).

I've also been curious who this Anonymous Coward person is, and how he manages to hide is certainly very very low userid number.

OTOH, if we forget what caused the disaster, it could happen again. I think the campground would be better off changing its name.
