  1. Re:Why use Linux on Sparc?? on Slackware For Sparc · · Score: 1

  2. Re:Maybe they need a change of name on Slackware For Sparc · · Score: 1

    Patrick and the gang aren't a commercial distribution, they seemingly have no intrest in doing this for any other reason than their support of linux, thus we don't see a ton of ports already. I mean, the same can go for SuSE, why name a comapany something that people can't all agree on "Su-Sah" or "Suh-Se" or "Su-Se"? It'll be nice when companies will listen to their employees, they should know that Slack is a great distribution, stable and for the most part polished to a high shine, I haven't seen a bug in the while I've been running it. It'll be nice when a network administrator can tell his boss that they should run Slack and the boss actually accepts that because of the expertise, not the freakin' name. What kind of name is Microsoft? I'd think that would portray a small, paultry software company with little aspirations.

  4. Ha! on FreeBSD sets new 1-day download record · · Score: 1

    Figures, this is the same week I decided to install FreeBSD onto my 486 via ftp through a cable modem. It took around 2 hours at a minimal install x_X, I just thought ftp.freebsd.org was crap.

  5. Hrmmmmmmmm on H-1B Visas Increased In 96-To-1 Vote · · Score: 1

    Personally, I can only see good coming from this. If you think for a moment, this isn't like NAFTA, Americans wont be losing jobs, and the workforce will gain a better diversity than it once had. Why do I say Americans won't be losing jobs? Well, we're not talking about some sweat-slaves in a tshirt factory, but rather fully degreed professionals. It ends up helping everyone in the end. Diversification, a simple idea which I can only boil down to a single example - When was the last time you set up Hewbrew/Big5/Kana support in X? These people coming from other countries know things about technolgies either not needed, or not domestic to us, and vice versa, we all learn from one another on top of it all. I'm a bit scatterbrained tonight, gomen.
