  1. Re:Bowie is boring. on David Bowie talks about Technology and Music · · Score: 2

    Yeah, sure. He's a bit arrogant. But if I where him, I'd be arrogant too. (Heck, I'm not him, and I'm still arrogant).
    Sadly, www.davidbowie.com is hardly what one would hope for. It should have been a lot lighter, or at least on a server that could take more. Half of the pages are always "Maximum users, try again later" or something like that (Not only now with the article, always). That's not very nice when every page has 20 frames.

    Still, the music remains great.

  2. Re:Oops! Just a little to the left... on First Journaling FS for Linux · · Score: 1

    Ah, thanks. I thought they where more or less the same. You learn something every day.

  3. Re:2GB file limits on First Journaling FS for Linux · · Score: 1

    2GB isn't a ext2 problem, it's in the kernel, and only on 32 bit machines. IIRC, there's a patch for it floating around somewhere.

  5. Re:Hmmm... How about: on Linux on a Magazine Cover? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, right. Everybdoy agrees on which editor is best of course :-)

    Talking of song, sadly david bowie's site's still NT4 and IIS...

  7. Re:Haha, finally a LEGAL RULING on Caldera vs. Microsoft Goes to Jury Trial · · Score: 1

    Hate to tell you this, but win95/98 are OSses. Not good one, but OSses none-the-less. They have their own memory managment, filesystem code etc..

  8. Re:BS on Post-Hacked DVD: Where to Go? · · Score: 1

    On the subject of paying tax on recordable media: Doesn't the fact that we're paying taxes for it imply that it's allowed? Dunno how the legal system thinks about this, here in holland or in the US, but to me it seems logical...

  9. Re:one more thing- MS flap with the Dow? on Investment Advisor Alleges MS Financial Fraud · · Score: 1

    Didn't they claim something about a breakup clause in new MS contracts? I didn't really follow the story, but there was something about it on the register.

  10. Re:Similars on A Sysadmin's Worst Halloween Fears · · Score: 1

    I get (and more or less agree with) the overrated moderation. But could someone please explain the flamebait bit?

  11. Netscape for linux? on Are You Ready For Burn All GIFs Day? · · Score: 1

    I've already mailed netscape about this, I'm having troubles with transparant png's in netscape 4.7 for linux. The transparant bits are all white or all black. Anybody else have this problem?

    Ok, I'll see if I can get roud to it :-)

  14. Re:Preserve Preferences on Archived Stories? on Minor Slashdot Updates · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure about that one actually... You wouldn't have to make the pages dynamic, just make 2 versions when they're archived. One sorted on score, one just plain chronologicly. Ok, a few more M server space, but apart from that?

  16. Ok, own up! on French Senator Proposes Requiring Open Source · · Score: 3

    I knew it. Someone replaced the french with really reasonable, nice people. Ok, who did it? C'mon, own up....

  17. Re:I'm just waiting... on Extraterrestrial Real Estate for Sale · · Score: 1

    Uranus is already taken... Someone made a comment quite early stating that they didn't want any properties on uranis. Tehehe.

  18. Re:Don't like it? Opt out. on Cookies, Ad Banners, and Privacy · · Score: 1

    Yes, But we were too polite to mention it.

    "Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run there's still time to change the road you're on." Somehow seems more appropriate for the url :-)

  19. Amazon on New Sandman Book and Signing · · Score: 1

    It's probably already been said, but: Please, can you stop giving amazon links untill they stop this silly lawsuit/patent thing?

  20. Re:Utterly utterly offensive on Uncle Robin's Advice for Lovelorn Geeks · · Score: 1

    Well, not EXACTLY like us. That makes it fun. :-)

  21. Re:Detection? on Results From "Jam Echelon Day" · · Score: 1

    You haven't been reading lately. L0pht have been busy on some very nice promisc mode detection routines. Ok, they're not foolproof, but it just might work.

  22. Re:The straw that broke the camel's back on Mutt Hits 1.0 · · Score: 1

    Doh, I hadn't even noticed. I meant to type fetchnews there. The sentence makes more sence then too. Sorry.

  23. Re:The straw that broke the camel's back on Mutt Hits 1.0 · · Score: 1

    Yes, I know. The smtp comment was just to illustrate that whoever answeres doesn't need to explain smtp.

  24. Re:Maybe somebody could help me with this... on Mutt Hits 1.0 · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't know about your problem, but I have the following setup which works very nicely:

    Procmail puts all mail from incoming mailinglists in different mailboxes (a nice idea anyway), and have the following mutt hooks:

    folder-hook . set move=no sort=send-date
    folder-hook (linux-kernel|BugTraq|Humor) set move=yes sort=threads

    mbox-hook /ion/home/fvw/Mail/linux-kernel +linux-kernel
    mbox-hook /ion/home/fvw/Mail/BugTraq +BugTraq
    mbox-hook /ion/home/fvw/Mail/Humor +Humor

    This basicly moves everything that's been read to the appropriate mailbox. (/ion is an nfs mount, so +BugTraq expands to /home/fvw/Mail/BugTraq). Bit confusing because of the nfs, but it works like a dream. Feel free to mail/icq me if you need help.

  25. Re:Mutt and PGP/Mime on Mutt Hits 1.0 · · Score: 1

    The piping can solve this afaik. I for example have the following macro:

    macro compose Y "Fpgps -ta\ny^T^Uapplication/pgp; format=text; x-action=sign\ng"

    I have more or less the default keybindings, if you don't understand what is does, feel free to mail me or reply or whatever.
