can anyone use fewer than 103 words and still adduce as many reasons as he does?
Exactly. Goes to show that if you don't have any substance in your speech, don't bother speaking at all. Looking at the 12 reasons, 1, 2 and 3 say the same thing repeated 3 times. Standing on giant's shoulders sound like a cliche as well. Totally useless list, IMO.
My biggest problem was non-availability of lm_sensors for the 2.6 series of kernels when I tried them 1 month ago.
In addition, some java processes (tomcat) started freaking out and taking 100% CPU when running under 2.6. Never happened under 2.4 for over a year and a half.
But which efficient environments do modern distributions have? On Fedora Core 1 I see four options GNOME, KDE, TWM, and Failsafe Terminal. That is two times bloatware, and two times too primitive for the average user. Where is the nice stable configurable KDE or GNOME like environment, that will not use a lot of RAM and CPU power?
You ask where is it? It's here and is called FluxBox.
Its pretty amazing that no one has mentioned TortoiseCVS yet. If you are using CVS and are stuck on the windows platform, then Tortoise CVS is a god send.
I am using mod_perl 2 (really 1.99_10) in production without any problems. You do have to sort of keep up with the mod_perl mailing list, but it has performed without any problems for me so far.
Nice job with the line breaks there, buddy!! Because of your mistake (and the editor's) anyone who is really interested in this topic will have to suffer through horizontal scrolling (big deterrant).

My mail is held on an IMAP server. So, the best email program for my needs is PC-pine on win32 (closed source). When on linux, use pine (open source).
I like the extra customization ability, the small footprint and the platform independence pine gives me. Attachments are a breeze. Ability to write accents in pine. Good thread support in recent versions (not talking about process/threads). Etc...
http://www.fff.org/freedom/0500h.asp has an excerpt from The Invention of the Passport: Surveillance, Citizenship and the State by John Torpey (New York: Cambridge University Press, 2000); 210 pages; $19.95.
I agree: new Outlook Express default policy is even more brain dead. One cannot even download and save attachments unless this virus option is turned off.
I double agree. There's a little trick that you can use to get OE to download/save attachments. First, open the message that has the attachments. Then click on Forward. Then you can save the attachments to your heart's content. Little bit of a workaround, but still manageable.
Let's assume for one second that SCO does have a case. In that case, HP-UX and Solaris could be the only major, commercial versions of Unix left. Is IRIX considered a major player any more? I don't think so.
You can always use distcc and ccache in combination. From distcc website:
You might like to also look at Andrew Tridgell's ccache compiler cache, which can avoid running the compiler altogether if the object file is cached from a previous identical run. This is great if you work in several similar source trees. Of course it works well with distcc.
This way if you DO have multiple machines at your disposal, use distcc (even distcc/ccache combo). Otherwise, if you only have one machine, then use ccache.
For the compulsive kernel compilers amongst us, ccache is a lot of help.
From their page:
ccache is a compiler cache. It acts as a caching pre-processor to C/C++ compilers, using the -E compiler switch and a hash to detect when a compilation can be satisfied from cache. This often results in a 5 to 10 times speedup in common compilations.
So, if your normal kernel build command is:
make dep clean && make bzImage modules modules_install
then, your ccache version of that command would be:
make dep clean && make CC="ccache gcc" bzImage modules modules_install
Trust me, it will save you a lot of time, especially if you are constantly tweaking your config settings and recompiling all the time.
If you compile as root, usually the cache directory will be/root/.cache You can tell ccache to only reserve so much disk space for itself by issuing a
Dumping is defined as follows URL ( http://pacific.commerce.ubc.ca/john/baim503/dum p.h tm)
This might be off topic, but what you call a URL in your case is just a random collection of characters thrown together which have the tendency of producing 404 errors if you don't remove embedded spaces.

Watch Kurosawa's "The Hidden Fortress." It's the EXACT SAME STORY as Star Wars, only in feudal Japan. Lucas has admitted as such (though the reference escapes me).
This topic is near and dear to my heart. However, my rant is on an off-topic note. I never completed my PhD. because of how my advisor treated his students during my period at the uni. He was always interested in getting research grants and could care less about the progress the students were making towards their program. I got so disenchanted with my PhD. work that when a part-time web job came up in 1995 I took it up in a snap. Eventually that job turned into a full-time job and a career and the PhD. was forgotten forever. In some ways, I regret not completing it and in other ways I am glad that I never completed i.

And the CRTC in Canada continues to lag behind in mobile number portability. Anyone know if they are planning to follow suit?
A google search revealed Mobile number portability page on The International Telecommunications Users Group (INTUG) site.
Here is their position paper on numbering which supports portability.

Secondly, what java programs have you not been able to try? Ever heard of J2EE. Stop using client-side java as an excuse.
