Seriously...the way to deal with a bully is to give back with more force than you received. If you are unable to match the bully with your bare hands, use tools. We aren't monkeys.
I don't build kernels, my employer builds them for me. But if I were to perform CPU-bound tasks I would do them on the multiprocessor machines in the server room. I suppose if your budget is such that you must handle such things on consumer grade hardware, linux is indeed the best choice and you chose wisely. As my workload has recently shifted towards Java, the context-sensitive auto-complete features of Eclipse-based IDEs completely blows away anything vi can do...I can hear the Emacs crowd rising up as I type...
They live in fear, knowing they can't defend themselves. Therefore they dread breaking the fragile 'peace' they think exists. Hell, the USA can't 'really defend' itself against a concerted terrorist attach. The USA can't even keep illegal immigrants out. Good thing fanatical groups are often at odds with each other and cant organize. Your god help us if they do...
I refuse to buy into XP and activation...I like stealing from Microsoft. In 2k, rightclick on "My Network Places" hit 'properties' for TCP/IP and pick your IP address. What do you do with your desktop that you need to script? I use mine for browsing,reading mail, burning CDs, playing games and running eclipse. Hey if it works for you, your god bless, but for me Linux as a desktop is just unneeded complexity.
The UI is more responsive and everything 'Just Works'. I don't have time to dick with linux to make it work with a 3 year old sound card, a USB flash card reader, or my Epson 820 Stylus printer. Linux is great for serving, but you are kidding yourself if you think it's beats Windows as a 'workstation'.
I use my machines for desktop purposes...and Windows is still the winner on the desktop. So...you haven't impressed me with your l33t Linux filesystems reference...
Their tool for Quike2 was the only option but the interface and behaviour sucked. Well it was free, what can you say? I don't go to their lame site either...why should I pay for a 'professional review' (yeah right...payola...) when I can go to online forums and real comments from real people.
Our little local library might not have that pic, but I bet a larger one would. I mean, do you think they actually inspect all the microfiche that comes in?! Well...given the current trends in the USA they might have to...
Sure, if you're lazy you can do it all on the net, but you are doing youself and your readers a disservice by not looking at multiple (if not all) sources.
I mean..how many posts on slashdot will it take until the "Steven King is Dead" story garners it's own web page and some kid researching King uses that false info in his paper?:D

It is unethical to rail against those who trade music and at the same time gain an advantage from that same trading.
..ah, fuck it. Lick yo daddy's sack yah douche.
I mean...profiting from illegal actions, right?

...and release it onto Kazaa, or those picture-rating sites. Sit back and watch what happens.
Put the fear of your-god in yah! People are falible, the higher power is not. Let them know that they will go to your-hell if they are naughty!
Oh yeah, and give 'em a beatin'.
A BEATIN'!!
Obviously you can't keep everyone out, but you can at least deport the ones found...and there are many.
It's Silmarillion, not Similarian. Thought you nerds loved those lame jokes! :)
Never heard of it...probably why it stinks.
I mean, I would only leave the couch for the bathroom and sleep. Well, maybe not sleep....
...and feet...and knock all the teeth out. These guys are true criminals. Maybe we can pool our money and hire a couple Russian Mafia hitmen.
Man...Too busy eating to type in a coherant answer...let's just say that the right to own property really cuts down on hoarding.

Oooohhh...let us eat turtles because they live a long time and we will also live long time! Savages...
I sure as hell don't have FAT on my 160GB drives! I googled, but no confirmation.

I hope they go belly up.
Please. Can anyone validate that this thing worked as they claim?
...but I rarely have multiple instances of the same program open, so I wouldn't need it.

Geeze...I'm sure there are quite a few copies of that magazine and article in paper form or micro-whatever. Geeze...
I mean, you shouldn't be using one source for your research anyway. Especially the internet!
I dunno, but my w2k taskbar shows all my windows, and I can access any one of them with a single mouse click.
