    The new Code of Conduct explicitly says discrimination and harassment on the basis of sex or gender is not allowed. One Linux Foundation Technical Advisory Board member who did not sign off on the patch is Ted Tso, who is a rape apologist:

    I use Feedly to monitor around 100 RSS feeds. Every morning I peruse the headlines and read any stories of interest, the way people used to read the morning newspaper. There isn't really any reasonable alternative.....

  7. Re: Wireshark runs without X11 under MacOSX on Wireshark Switches To Qt · · Score: 1

    Well with GTK+ being cross platform, Wireshark on MacOS still required using the X Windows interface. So will the move to Qt finally make it a native app?

    Wireshark doesn't require X11, GTK2 does.
    So when you've installed GTK2 via Macports like this
      gtk2 @2.24.21_0+no_x11+quartz+universal
    then wireshark isn't using X11 and feels like a native MacOS-Application:
    - Wireshark-Dockicon
    - No X11 is started
    - The menubar is on top, like in any other mac-applcation

  8. Newsblur on Slashdot Asks: How Will You Replace Google Reader? · · Score: 1

    I can absolutly recommend NewsBlur!!

    http://www.newsblur.com/

    It's better than GoogleReader and is OpenSource. You've 3 options:
    - use the free account (up to 64 sites)
    - pay 24$/year for unlimited sites + extra features (fair price if you ask me)
    - geek option: set it up yourself (you have all features in that way) -> https://github.com/samuelclay/NewsBlur.git

    Plus, it comes with free iOS and Android-Apps.

    I've set it up myself last week and said goodbye to google reader.

  17. Upgrade to 'real' PHP5 difficult on PHP 5 Power Programming · · Score: 1

    In my experience it is difficult to support an PHP-App on both versions 4/5
    U have to switch compat-mode (zend..comp) on in php5.
    Why?

    in php4:
    function test(&$var) is callbyreference
    and
    function test($var) is callbyvalue

    in php5 without compat-mode you have to decide as the caller, since function-args are byreference

    test($var) byreference
    test($var.clone()) byvalue

    What's the deal?
    you can customize libnss_ldap to look up in an active directory ( via MSSFU ).
    pam_krb5 does the authentification-stuff.
