for GNU/Linux and BSD that is. Everyone seems to get upset with this idea, I love it! Fsck em, let them screaw things up more and more. The more they do it, the more people will search for an alternative.
GNU/Linux allows me to do what ever the hell I want. If I wanna run _everything_ as root and make the system 100% insecure, its up to me. It will allow me to make whatever changes required to do so. Of course I wouldn't, but the freedom is there.
On an M$ platform, M$ makes those desisons for me. Why would anyone need another firewall ? Ours is good enough. This comming from a company that has zero clues on security.
Theres a slew of intresting info on this avaiable here. (Take a look at the links on the bottom) They talk about a lot of crap that M$ is tring to pull with XP. Its a good read. Especially for those intrested in acutally using an M$ platform.
.. as its not M$. I used BeOS a few times, unfortnally, it doesn't run in vmware or I would have it installed. Plus, there trial version doesn't install on its own partion. They actually belive that people will install Windows just to check it out.
I no longer go to school. I would have been in some serious shit then. My teacher found it amazing what I could do. They called me down to secure there systems. If something broke, who did they call:)
People wonder why the world is falling apart. Look at what these schools are pulling. So, maybe a law like this isn't the schools fault. But, they will inforce it to the stupied level. Think about it, a kid takes a butter knife to school to cut his sandwhich (or whatever). What happens, the kids kicked out of school and brought up on criminal charges. 5 year old kisses a class mate and is brought up on sexual harasment changes. Man, this shit makes my blood boil.
Ok, so I ranted a little off course. Still, 10 years ?! These are fscking kids where talking about. If a 10 year old starts playing around a little, gets caught. By the time his out of jail, WTF is there on the outside for him ?? Nothing, he will them become a carier criminal.
The dot coms are mostly going under these days. The only way for these companys to stay a float is to make banner ads that people really click on and buy there product.
The pop ups don't bother me becuase konquoer is nice enough to provide a disabler for it. The new ads that piss me off are the flash ones. I don't like checking out a site and hearing a long advertisment on xyz. I do have banner ad blockers via squid, becuase I _hate_ seeing those damn monkeys. Instead of punching the monkey, I would rather punch its creator. Plus, it saves me on bandwidth:)
I think the worst of the banner ads is still to come. Websites splash screens will soon be a 30 second ad before you can get to the site. Which will be VERY annoying. You watch, there on the way...
Its cool that it works with drives that are inside of the case.
When I was running a dual boot system (3 years ago or so) I was using those replaceable hard drive trays. Which work very nice if you have to move the drive to another machine, or have multiable OS's. (More then 2)
For those intrested, I am providing a local mirror to those on the LAN in the conf. I am still downloading them, but they will be avaiable as they finish downloading.
Actually, I have a better idea. The NY Times should just remove that stupied fucking feature. Its very annoying. I never go to there site in the first place, when there are storys like this, I would like to go.... but, its a waste of my time.
Hmmmmm, does anyone else think its time to start emailing them 12 times a day asking them to get rid of it ? Or durring each/. story that has a NYT story on it.
ok, maybe its an insaine ammount of money to sue for. I don't think the bandwidth costs are nearly that much.
BUT, You did use there computers without permission. If you had permission, this would not be happening. So, my friend, your SOL. You should have thought about your famliy and life 2 years ago when you did this.
BTW: This is not flame bait, this is seriously what I think. Please, don't mod me down for no apparent reason.
Not until they fix the damn memory mangement problems. They only seem to be getting worse, I hope 2.4.6 resolves most of them. until (succeed) try { again(); }
ok, like the subject says, I take back what I said the other day about adobe being right. There taking things way to fucking far. This really upsets me.
Change the name, carry on...
... until the fucking blood sucking laywers get invoild. Adobe should have sent a cease-and-desist uging them to change the name before they take things futher. You know what would have happened ? The name would have changed, and everyone would have been happy, end of story.
I don't know about everyone else, but I am gonna start emailing adobe 4 times a day telling them what I think of there company and why I will not buy there products until they cut the crap. I don't think this is flying off the handle or anything. Its help out the K guys.
There are plenty of simular names they could have used. How about kIllustration, its different enough. Is the same thing as SSH and OpenSSH, sure there different. But, someone new to the sceen might not know the difference.
If they don't defeand there name, how can they in the future. Now, weather or not Adobe should port there products to Linux is a completly seperate issue.
I have been tring to network my block up for some time now. Unfortnally, they won't give me a permit to run fiber across the street. So, this would be a nice way to connect up some of the machines. Of course, I would have to put the unit(s) on the roof. (To avoid cars)
The only thing stopping me is the price, ouch. Maybe one day it will be reasonable. Are there gonna be Linux drivers:)
I have been using Debian and Progeny for about 4 months now. I really like apt-get, its a great idea and makes life much simpler.
For example, I ran LDAP for my accounts on my LAN.
apt-get install libpam-ldap
apt-get install libnss-ldap
Answered some questions, and was on my mary way.
Using an RPM soultion, I would have to install the RPMs, edit/etc/ldap.conf, move around some files in/etc/pam.d, create some sym links, edit/etc/nsswitch.conf, just to make it work.
Plus, handling dependices is the greats part. That saves so much time, its not even funny.
But, apt has some down falls. The packages are generally old. Debian stable installs PostgreSQL 6.x. Which is VERY old. I understand why they don't install a newier version, but I always feel 2 steps behind.
RPM is a good system, it does lake the config part, which is very nice. (Maybe its something they can add:) RPM has been around for a while, I am just suprised no one has done this years ago. It will make upgrades, and installations much more comptete. Finding out there was a secuirty issue in one of your RPMs is a pain in the ass. You have to download it, walk around to all of your machines, transfer the file over, and upgrade.
You get the idea, I think this is something RPM based systems have needed for a long time now. I run Mandrake 7.2 on my WS (8.0 was giving me problems) so this would be nice to have.

Thats it, nothing more. No matter how many laws they create, or arrest people on. That is the ultimate law that covers it all.

Acutally, I think its a little of all of those. I didn't bother with it, or even care. I simply laughed at everyone yelling and screaming over it.

Posting 1 paragraph of the GPL says that my post is lame. So, the moderation is happening BEFORE I even post it ?!
Back to my comment, I would like to see them tweak the entire license over to the GPL. One day it will happen, they don't have much of a choice.
