Excuse me, I'm applying for an MS posistion and I need some practice:
1)Linux is ready for the desktop 2)Linux is gaining market share on the desktop market 3)BSD is gaining market share at all. 4)IBM is our friend 5)SCO has a case.
What you described points to a good reason why I am turned off of online games particularly MUD -if I want to learn a scripting language -I'll do so for real; not in the context of some crappy [imho] text-based star trek MUD.
The difference between a verdict and the jury simply all agreeing is wether or not what they agree upon is the matter being tried.
They could all agree that the moon is made of green cheese, but if the trail is regarding what caused the cow to jump over the moon, it is not a verdict.
I would email taco about this, except that after reading the obnoxious "don't email me I won't read it" tripe on his web page, I can't be bothered [since he WON'T be bothered to read the mail in the first place].
I would give you mod points if I had them. Let's hope they update the story some time in *this* millenium.
I've tried Thunderbird (and mad dog 40/40 har har) 0.1 combined with firebird 0.6 and the first problem that I came across was enough of a show-stopper to make me switch back to the traditonal suite.
That being the inability to right-click on a web page and have the "send page" menu option.
I have a low-end system, but I'll make a point of finding resources to get this kind of functionality.
Splitting the two programs up seems like a step backwards, in my opinion.
If cash is an issue for him; he should know that GAIM, Mozilla mail/navigator, and xmms -not to mention the linux to run them on- are all available for free.:)
This is the EXACT kind of case the the corporations have waited to have fall into their lap. Expect this case to be rationale behind a storm of anti-OSS legislation in the VERY near future.
In short, we're even more screwed than we were before!
I'm orginally from the pacific northwest [seattle], and I recently moved to Arizona from Anchorage...and the biggest shock [aside from the heat] is the ABSOLUTE LACK of ANY kind of micro-brew here. I don't know how things are in Phoenix, but here in the outlying area, it's michelob, budweiser or other assorted shit [and I do mean shit]
Makes me glad I went sober aproximately a year before I came down here...otherewise I'd be absolutely devestated.
OTOH, I haven't seen anywher in Ak or Wa where you could buy a case [and then some--30 beers per unix] for $11.:-D
There's lot more in debian than stability and apt-get.
...such as..?
Social-contract,
Nice if you're religiously inclined; which I don't believe that most slashdotters are...
extensive multiplatform support and compatibility,
Which NetBSD does better, hence the Debian Port to it.
serious full-disclosure security policy...
Which does better [hence the 'no remote holes in the default install" bit]
However, using debian DOES allow you to feel 31337 on slashdot (whoops, I spoke too soon) and feel superior by bullying [RTFM n00b] helpless newbies on IRC.
While I use debian (out of habit), I question that it's time has not come and gone...
I'm not sure that it counts as the same idea, but lately [during the last couple of months] trolls have started pasting linked articles ["in case of slashdotting"], and adding an not-esp-subtle homosexual reference in the bottom of the last paragraph.
IMHO, if they're going to go full out that way, they should take the 30 seconds and insert an bogus and inflammatory statement in the middle of the article before posting it.
Wow! quote: "If IBM is found guilty of stealing SCO code, then the community is morally obligated to stand behind them, in the name of upholding intellectual property rights and freedom in general".
It's a sad day when the FSF agrees with those who would plunder the free software world, but with an arugment like that, I can see why they'd feel that way.

After reading your profile, I stand corrected. *burns my feminist card*
Given that you're instantly confining him to your foes list, the group list which you belong to must be "christian fundies".
Oh no, did I just get added to yor foes list too? OMFG! WTF!?! LOL!!

Did I pass?
Can be another way of phrasing "two brothers ripped to shreds by chaos".
I'm not clear on how they died, so I don't know if they were literally 'torn apart' or not.
fp!=(1+0)
1+1 != fp!
Does the phrase: "Crusty, unmaintained, or otherwise useless" ring any bells?

Are you suggesting that GW is going to do something more drastic...maybe something along the lines of burglary?

Kreskin is far too pre-occupied with the death of *BSD to bother about trivia such as SCO vs IBM. :p

As long as you're IM'ing a cute co-ed student, and not your grizzled old proffessor, it should not be too much of a problem.
If it takes longer than 30 minutes to get there, then it's free (as in "pizza") ;-)
if microsoft is allowed to hold a monopoly on using methods to translate text from one language to another in IMs.
It's definately a sad day for capitalism, that's for sure!

Apparently, it couldn't handle slashdot.
