  1. Re:Apple as a software company on Interview with Jordan Hubbard About DarwinPorts · · Score: 1

    Cola Cola already has jackets and shirts and even cocaclock radios! I'm sure they're makin a pretty penny off it.

  2. How about a click thru license for P2P's on Corporations, CDs and Click Thru Licensing Loopholes? · · Score: 1

    How about putting a click through license on the p2p's that makes it illegal for the RI/MPAA to connect to any p2p. Or anyone looking to give/sell information to the MPAA/RIAA, in addition to any law enforcement officials. That way when they have any information in court, they can be sued as well for breaking the click through license.

  3. Qmail-Toaster on SuSE's OpenExchange and Windows Integration? · · Score: 1

    What about the Qmail-Toaster with the horde calendar feature added in? I mean I know this isn't a full MS Outlook solution, but it seems to handle the needs, plus it's very good about handling many things graphically like e-mail robots and is nicely packaged for most distro's.

  4. Re:I just compile from the source on Virgin Apache is Hard to Find · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I sure do, it's easier when you have to update many servers to set up a local rpm site and have all servers update. The main thing is to roll your own Apache rpm. which is not too hard

  5. Re:Guido van Rossum on Top Ten Software Innovators? · · Score: 1

    Didn't Han Solo take care of this guy in the cantina?

  6. Re:In Soviet Russia... on PCMCIA-based Network Diagnostic Tool? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Oh come on, I know Soviet Russia is pretty backwards, but even there they must be using CardBus by now.

  7. Re:Ouch on Microsoft Drops .NET Name For Next Windows Server · · Score: 2

    In keeping with Microsoft's naming conventions, shouldn't it be

    "Linux.ORG Server"
    "Apple.COM OS X Server"
    "FreeBSD.EDU Server"
    "Microsoft.NET Server"

    See the difference!

    Hehe, just nitpicking, sorry. You still a funny mofucka!

    186,000 Miles Per Second or 300,000 Kilometers Per Second, take your pick.

    I tried to let ya guys know, but you know them slashdot editors hehehe

  11. Distro Libraries on Open Source Solutions for Libraries? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    There are tons of libraries available for free, everything from GNU's awesome libc, to libpcap, to libpng are available in most distro's. If you need a library that isn't included in your distro, just download and compile. That usually works.

  12. Re:Meh on Star Wars Origami · · Score: 1

    Use a hundred dolla-bill and call yourself "Lord of the Bling"

  13. RedHat from CheapBytes on Linux Is Cheaper · · Score: 1

    Redhat was getting a bunch of people demanding support after purchasing the cheapbytes version. They still allow people to make their own distro and sell em, just not call it redhat. But I think you're right, RH was a bad example...but the rest of my post was still correct.

  14. Re:Apples vs Oranges on Linux Is Cheaper · · Score: 2

    Exactly, that is why no one can *cough* sell linux besides Linus himself.

    Seriously, Linux is not restricted. I can buy a box of RedHat at a store and make as many copies, sell em if I want and still be within my rights.

  15. Re:WRONG on Slides Of Microsoft Anti-GPL Advocacy · · Score: 2

    Try doing this with XP and see what happens when you try to activate it the second time around, or third, etc.

    That is the exact type of behavior M$ doesn't want people to be able to do. Prevents them from cashing in multiple times.

  16. Re:And how many on Windows Security Holes Go Mostly Unexploited · · Score: 2
    Well, they say you can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friend's nose.

    I always thought it went "You can pick your boogers and you can pick your friends, but you can't wipe your friends on your sleeve!"

  17. Enable XP's Firewall on Fighting Back Against Messenger Popup SPAM · · Score: 4, Informative

    Just enable XP's firewalling or disable the messenging service in Start/Settings/Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services and disable Messenger.

  18. Re:I have an idea on What Can You Do w/ 170,000 DirecTV DSL Gateways? · · Score: 1

    It didn't work the first time around, that's why we got this problem now!

  19. Re:If RedHat used honest version numbers... on New Red Hat Beta · · Score: 1

    The parent post had stated that it took two days to install, not two days to install and lock down and configure. Even then two days is still a lil Jr. Admin-ish. And as for removing the crap RH put in, why not run with a more minimal distro to begin with or perhaps OpenBSD.

  20. Re:If RedHat used honest version numbers... on New Red Hat Beta · · Score: 1

    Looks like someone did a full install of emacs

  21. I Got one! on Suggestions for Unique Names for a Server Room? · · Score: 5, Funny

    How about you put up a sign called Engineering and have everyone refer to you as Scotty!

  22. Ironically! on FreeBSD 5.0 RC2 Almost Ready · · Score: 0, Troll

    Ironically enough... In Soviet Russia all your base are still belong to us!

  23. Re:Just in time for Christmas!! on FreeBSD 5.0 RC2 Almost Ready · · Score: 1

    I personally think a Linux kernel with the OpenBSD userland would be the best thing ever.
