ree advice. Although American Psycho is a great movie, with a real mind-fuck ending
I am not sure if this is a flame or a troll or just opinionated, perhaps all. However, that movie was terrible. Plot holes so large Mac trucks were driving through the screen. The ending was obvious and trite. The acting was wooden and wrong, the social commentary that could be contained in a Rob Schnieder film. Please someone tell me WHAT THE FUCK was so appealing about this movie? Do I need to read the book? Is the book better? Inform, enlighten, please.
..and then use that information to build a competing radio?
Therein lies the difference.
Well who is to say that some did not grow up and do just that. Isn't that what it all comes down to. You learn to make something better and then in time learn to produce it on a larger scale for all to enjoy.
Does anyone remember taking thier first radio apart "just to see how it works". This in the most base form was reverse engineering. Personally if you have the resources and the desire, by all means. Find out what makes it tick. The only reason Bit-Keeper is annoyed is because they see a free product competing with thier own. Not yet persay, but in the very near future.

In case anyone hasn't answered this for you. Your resolution issue (failure to resolve names) comes from a DNS issues. Call your ISP and check thier DNS information, then double check that against your DNS server settings. Your ISP should be able to help you with this.
So is it just me, or did the review seem to follow some of the same nuances it pointed out in the book. Seemed the writer picked up some of the authors habits. In essence the review, could be applied (in some respects) to the review itself. Creepy.
Which means you should go for the mail-in-rebate if you seriously expect there's a higher than 52% probability that it will actually pay out.
I have to be honest. I am no fan of BestBuy or MIR. However, I have always got my MIR's back. I have never had any issue at all, sure it takes a little time, but mine always arrive.
That's partially the point right there. It's your *choice* to use KDE. Personally I think KDE is a resource hog and slow. I use fluxbox, even with transperancy, it's still 10x faster than KDE.
With windows, you have windows. I know nothing of OS X, so I will not comment there.
Let me sum up: The Republicans are EVIL. They run up a HUGE debt so that something has to be cut from the budget. The Democrats are STUPID. They cut their own social programs.

With the issues the 2.6 kernel had this year and last, the SCO negativity was the last thing Linux needed. I think this article is one of those positive rallying cries to make people feel better, but SCO was a very bad thing for Linux. It's no longer seen as the invincible little free operating system. Its heritage was brought into question, the issue of code attribution is now on people's minds now and in the future on OSS projects, and it has the PR taint of corporations and intellectual properties in its history.
Is this is a troll? Well I'll bite. First off, I assume the 2.6 issues you are talking about the numbering issue. Without a doubt that needs to be resolved, but I highly doubt managment types delve that far into any OS.
As far as the PR taint, that "taint" as you call it, was a testing of boundaries and strengths. Linux came through in flying colors. There was legitimate proof in a court of law that all the code was accounted for and legal. That is not taint my fiend, that is pure release. Linux was poked, proded and dropped from 50 stories, it survived. The public now see's this, including managment types. This is good.
Why, why am I forced to recall that song. I realized there can be no caring god after hearing that song. Now, once again I am forced to recall that wretched piece of radio trash. Mercy.
The question is, if the money is a motivation, then when you get your first multi-million dollar project bonus, you retire.
Alternately, you're in it for the love of the game and no amount of money will make you quit. But then what's the motivation?
That's pretty Black and White. I am personally "in it for the love", and although money is not the end all, be all, it is still an incentive. Not implying that I am google employee.
OK... and when you (or someone else) takes a non-FDA drug, does that mean you waive all rights to suck up my tax dollars when you show up at the emergency room?
Two things, first and foremost. In most "non-FDA" drug, emergency room related incidents; it is a matter of life and death. Most "hard drug" consumers are breaking laws they don't want to face until they have too. Are you going to say that your tax dollars are more important than someone's life. Even if they may be a "drug taking fiend". Sometimes good people make mistakes too.
Second point, I am willing to wager that emergency rooms see ten times more drunk driver casulties than drug OD's.
So what about people that drink and drive? Are they sucking up your tax dollars too? That's an FDA approved drug.
It's not "Linux" code they are after. Please RTFA.
"Wells refused to grant SCO complete review of all of the IBM programs it listed, but threatened to grant "unfettered access" in the future if IBM fails to provide all data - including approximately 2 billion lines of code - from its AIX and Dynix systems."
I was not speaking of Gentoo, or customizing every single line of the OS. Perhaps I mis-represented myself, or perhaps I am being lumped in with the typical/. crowd.
I am speaking from more of a slackware point of view. Rather than being reliant on a set of Wizards and GUI-Tools for systems administration, I would rather know the configuration files. Where they are located, how they are formatted, being able to edit them by hand.
I think this is vital of systems administration to know how the OS works. In my opinion systems like Red Hat, tend to have wizards that work at higher level.
To answer you question, yes I am systems admin, I work in a lab of about 60 Red hat boxes, from X86 to IPF (depends how you define diverse hardware), when I need to makes changes, I use/dev/hands. Sure I use scripts and other tools to automate my job, but I am very thankful that I can edit the config files by hand if need be.
I am not going to say that I would install Slackware on every enterprise level machine either. However, to cut the teeth of budding sys admins, the more they know about the inner workings of Linux (or what have you), the better off they will be when shit hits the fan.
So I hope this explains my position a little more clearly. It's about using the arcane-OS as a teaching tool, not what should be implemented on every piece of hardware.
What? You'd rather have him dicking around wasting time with some elitist MoreArcaneThanThou-OS, than writing useful code that gets something done?
Fair point, however, remember that those MoreArcaneThanThou-OS's are training a whole new breed of sys admin's that will be the ones maintaining the health of your systems, whilst you are busy coding.
I fully believe in a solid eductation. I also believe there is a better way to make sure kids recieve a solid education.
There is much discussion of under-funded class rooms, under-paid teachers, lack of computers for sudents, so on and so forth. Just seem's there is a better way to handle this situation.
