Indeed, AIX's SMIT software update section has had this for ages, and you can connect to remote repositories with the packages for different programs that you want to install.
Oh, we're still up there too. Most of the troops on the DMZ bleong to us. It's a trippy experience to go there and see how the building where the truce talks were conducted is set up and watch North Korean guards staring at you through the window.
It is because of us that South Korea is free, and God willing one of these days we'll bring freedom to ALL of Korea.
And let me tell you something, the older Koreans remember and thank us for it. I spent six years of my time in the Air Force stationed in Korea, and while most people my age there were more curious than anything to talk to an American (most really wanted to practice their English!), I was extremely touched one day on the subway in Seoul.
As I was standing there, an older man sitting next to me asked me if I was an Amerian serviceman. When I answered yes. he shook my hand and said "Thank you. Young people don't remember, but I do. Thank you for helping us. Thank you for coming here."
One of the guys I worked with had a similar experience, the older Korean gentleman said to him "Your country was willing to send its young men to come here and die to protect us." I think the ROK is a shining example of American military power used for the right reasons.
The difference between the Korean war and our current debacle? The South was attacked and overrun by the North. We came in to defend, not to do a pre-emptive attack on an entire country.
Doesn't look like South Korea is very different from North. They indeed jail anyone who advocates unification or just closer ties
Hardly. There's been a major thawing in relations between the two in the last 10 years. While going around wearing a DPRK pin might get you some trouble, saying that you want better relations with the North or that the peninsula should be unified is actually pretty common these days.
" President Roh Mu-hyun said in a press conference marking the New Year, "the inter-Korean relations are progressing steadily based on the spirit of the June 15 Joint Declaration.""
The two Koreas have been fielding joint teams to major world sporting events for some time now. Hardly the mark of country that jails people for advocating closer ties.
If you don't think the two Koreas are all the different, I'd invite you to go to South Korea some time, spend some time away from the touristy stuff and then say they aren't very different.
"SFU is not shipped with Windows because SFU currently contains open-source software, such as the GNU C compiler, which cannot be distributed with commercial software."
*nix is by default more secure because users don't have the ability to run processes as root without using "su" and knowing the admin password. Users on a *nix system can exist just fine without needed admin access, unlike a Windows box where making users local admins is pretty much the only way to let them have the amount of authority they need to be productive.
I went in the bathroom to take a leak, stopped and looked into the mirror, and said "Why am I carrying around all the anger? Why do I hate myself so much? I really am a decent person." I flushed and walked out of the bathroom and I have felt better ever since.
I have found myself doing the exact same thing over the last year. I worked at a data center for a large company who just went through a merger and had just signed to replace every friggin desktop in the company. So, old P-III desktops and servers fell into my trunk, and they have found good homes with friends and family who were also thrilled to have them.
Now that Fritz Hollings (D - Disney) is gone, the only major stumbling blocks in the senate will be Senators Hatch and Bono. I think we have a shot if Rep Boucher can get this past the House.
I installed it for my mother in law (who's had a stroke) just to keep the spyware removal trips to a minimum. I removed the IE icon from her desktop, replaced it with a shortcut to Firefox, but with the IE icon and labled "Internet Explorer", set the theme to Luna, imported her bookmarks, and she was off to the races.
She's delighted that now she does not get pop ups and hasn't had any crap installed on her machine just because she can't read the fine print on the whacko games she browses to.
I know he's referring to the GPL, but his scenario also fits for describing taking BSD licensed code and putting into a proprietary product. It's perfectly legal and within the wishes of the developers of that code, but it fits his definition just as well as his mischaracterization of the Linux Kernel development process.
Except that SCO claims "an easment" into ANY SVRX licensee's implementation. According to them, anything that was added on to the original SVRX code cannot be released outside the company that developed it in any way, shape, or form, without SCO's approval. This is their current rationale behind the IBM lawsuit and Darl has said this numerous times.
While it was perfectly legal and within the desires of the BSD developers, Brown derides the mixing of free and proprietary source, accusing the Linux Kernel developers of doing this, when, in actuality, Microsoft is "guilty" of using this type of development model. So was AT&T, hence the USL/BSD settlement.
It just strikes me as ironic that this horrible act has not been done by the Kernel team, but by AdTI's funder.
"Hybrid source code" is a phrase coined by former Tocqueville Chairman Gregory Fossedal. The term refers to any product with a license that attempts to mix free and proprietary source code at the same time.

Since when is this true??
Umm, are you using the same Win2k I am? Until I had local admin rights added, I got the "You are not authorized to perform this operation" message.
Guy comes home from work to find his girlfriend holding the newspaper with tears in her eyes.
"What's the matter hon?" he says.
"You're in the newspaper today!" she screams, throwing it at him. "They say you're a pedophile!"
He looks at her and says "Now, that's an awfully big word for a twelve year-old."

My fav was the shrinkray. For this alone, I loaded it up and played it again the other week.
My bad, that's Rep Bono now, Sonny's widow took over his seat and I believe won re-election.

Actually the pronunciation was "gojirra" as there are no "z" or "l (in the middle of a word)" sounds in Japanese.
Me neither.
Course, when I got laid off, it was only for a day and the job I have no, I got a major raise, so as far as I am concerned, my salary is just fine.
That, sir, is genius.

Not in the NT kernel, but the TCP/IP stack was taken from BSD.

Would this be like taking a free TCP/IP stack and mixing it into a proprietary OS?
