Needless to say, setting up the server environment was considerably easier and faster. Linux, with all required sub servers, was ready in about 3 hours of work, whereas a long day passed before I had my OS X ready to go.
Throughout the article it's obvious he knows Linux very well, and doesn't know OS X all that well. That is probably the reason for this disparity and probably for the results.
I thought Darwin used 4.4BSD-Lite2.
And as everyone noticed, somehow he didn't know to use 10.2, which among other optimizations would have had GCC 3.1, which is supposed to generate better code.
It's about gross mismanagement, ineffectiveness, waste of money, unaccountability, corruption, plainly stupid moves and much more. The U.S. government also has many of these attributes, but the U.N. is much worse. Lesser of two evils.
for instance there are some matters that legititimately are such that I do want to preserve attorney-client privilege.
We have to respect that. And I believe your attitude of respect to privilege here shows that ICANN management's restrictions on your rights as a director were merely stalling tactics until they could get you out. They had no need to fear you would publicize all sorts of confidential documents; they just didn't want any type of investigation.
I can't wait to see the report before it gets buried at the bottom of the circular bin at ICANN.
ICANN is a non-profit public benefit corporation. Quite different rules. This was one of the major points that let Auerbach win his case and got the judge mad at ICANN.

I think all of us could support it then!
eBay's been using heavy-handed tactics for a while

Ebay vs. Musician
·
· Score: 3, Informative
Remember when Microsoft signed on as a buddy and had eBay cancel hundreds of legal Windows sales under the guise of stopping piracy? eBay even had all those hundreds of negative ratings of the Microsoft buddy account set to neutral. After the big flap over it, it disappeared. Used to be here.
Go here and search for "microsoft" to see why this bill is up. Also, the software industry as a whole has given almost $10,000,000 so far in this election cycle.
Oh yeah, and Microsoft is Smith's #1 contributor with $22,900, more than double the #2 contributor.
$22,900. Is that all it costs to buy a senator these days?
Most of the stuff coming from DC has nothing to do with equal protection. It's extra garbage thrown on the states at the behest of those of whom 1/50th (in the Senate at least) are knowledgeable about any one state. For example, remember the city in Alaska having to dump waste fish into its water treatment plant so that it could remove the federally-mandated amount of waste from drinking water? Their water was naturally too clean due to runoff.
I am not contesting federal laws such as the Civil Rights Act that keep the states from abusing their people. That's equal protection.
Also, state legislation trumping feds isn't a dead issue, just look at medical marijuana initiatives. It's still being fought. In that case, please tell me where the Constitution gives the federal government power to keep people from growing stuff in their own back yards?
And maybe (in my dreams) federal intrusions on constitutional state self-regulation will go back to the pre-FDR era where they used the Interstate Commerce Clause as a pretext for everything.
I don't think equal protection would be a problem to a state freeing itself from the federal yoke as long as they don't start passing Jim Crow laws.
If people want that intrusion, let them go to another state that accepts it. That's the way it's supposed to work at least.
You just have to go without the federal government handouts that come with those mandates as strings attached (that the money probably came from your state in the first place kind of sucks, though).
It seems every forward-looking science story has already been conceived by either Isaac Asimov or Arthur C. Clarke. Clarke did this one in 3001 (HAL/Bowman downloaded). Asimov probably earlier, but I haven't read all of his fiction since there's just too much.
Forget the military, there's a civil service component that goes with it. You get a decent salary plus paid housing and cost of living allowance. For Europe, go to the hiring agency and put your resume into the automated system. Then after it's processed, surf the site for jobs. Even though you're in Europe, you won't be paying European taxes.
You may end up with a slightly faster processor or DDR vs. SDR RAM, or maybe ATA 133 vs. ATA 100, or video, etc.
With Mac, one day you buy a single 800 and the next day it's a dual 800 with a DVD writer and a faster system bus (example only, but Mac followers see this type of thing all the time). The value leaps are huge compared to the PC, making it necessary to be smart in your purchases.
There's a specific talent to buying a Mac at the right time, as performance increases happen in large steps in a few distinct instances in the year.
PCs just keep getting gradually better and better. But with a Mac you can buy a single processor machine one day only to find you could have had a dual for the same price on the next day.
WTC1: Killed innocents in the four-digit range WTC2: ditto Pentagon: Killed hundreds, mostly just average-joes working in civil service jobs Capitol: Would have killed some innocents, plus the source of many of the problems in the country today
I'd say that if one had to miss, it should have been one of the WTC planes. Would slashdotters be weeping over the demise of Hollings or Berman? These are the people selling your rights out to the RIAA and MPAA.
Just being able to address over 4 GB will be a boon to anyone using CAD or high-end video or graphics, or running a mid-level server. Forget any cache loss loading 64-bit, think no more paging memory to try to get over 4 GB.
I say bring copyrights down to the length of patents. They are the same thing legally (a government-granted monopoly), growing out of the exact same clause of the Constitution. All of the arguments the government has for long copyright terms are hypocritical if they don't have a problem with short patent terms.
In Germany oncoming traffic will usually warn you of a portable camera ahead that they just passed by flashing their lights. Nobody bothers about the stationary cameras as everyone knows to slow down for them.
Or there's the story (urban legend/joke?) of a kid a couple hundred yards in front of a camera or a cop with radar with a sign saying "SLOW speed trap ahead" and another kid a couple hundred yards after with a sign saying "Donations welcome."

You mean Miss India 1965, Persis Khambatta (died 1998). She was quite beautiful with her hair, and it freaked her out to shave her head for the role.
That ship was so ugly I'll be surprised if Thor let's them park it anywhere around the Asgard home planet. There goes the property value.
It would be like parking an old trashed Corvair in a Ferrari neighborhood. Did you see the shot with Thor's ship and that thing together? Ugh!

If you think mismanagement under U.S. oversight is bad, I cringe thinking of how screwed up the Internet would be under UN management.

They're supposed to be open!

Nation of Islam <> Islam
Parodies of Nation of Islam (the racist political organization) usually aren't saying much about Islam (the religion).

So what I think doesn't count much. It's sad that if one plane had to miss on 9/11 it was the one that could have done some good.
