Yes, there is such a concept as "filial responsibility" or "filial duty" and I am well aware of that.
But "filial" refers to the relationship. "filial duty" means "the duty of a child [to its parent]". Notice how filial describes the duty, not the child.
To describe children as filial is redundant and stupid. Children are implicitly filial.
Unfortunately, it's not even close. A couple things that spring to mind:
AFS servers don't automatically ensure that every piece of data is stored on some minimal number of them. Enabling/configuring replication of a given volume is a manual process.
AFS treats a single server as the "master" read-write copy; replicated copies are read-only.
And burning who knows how much gasoline in order to physically transport an object across the country that weighs something around 2 grams is not irresponsible?
Except that it's not as if the shipping company is making a special trip just to transport that one object. The amount of additional gasoline or jet fuel required to transport another 2g is miniscule.
So, in order of preference: reuse yourself give/sell locally give/sell distantly destroy
For top-level classification their specification to ensure data destruction remains to this day in the belly of an incinerator.
Wow, even the specification is so secret that it was destroyed immediately? That's f'n hardcore! One question, though: how do they know how to destroy data properly, if the specification's been destroyed?
you couldn't distribute copies of grep with your extra file already included. Is there some place from which nvidia are distributing copies of the kernel with their modules included?
I'm pretty sure I could legally write a plugin system for grep which used binary plugin modules, release the plugin system's source, and then release closed source plugins. This seems reasonably comparable to what nvidia has done.
(and also $2 bills, which are still minted today) No they're not. No bills are minted at all, anywhere. Unless there's some place with metal bills, I guess.
"So in other words, if you find some loophole in the law, it is OK to solicit 13 year olds?"
This is something I've never understood -- why is it even necessary to create a law like this? Is it somehow more illegal to solicit a minor over IM than it is in person?
Do we need a separate set of laws saying that it's illegal to solicit a minor in Spanish, German, etc.?
If I create a new device (say a grav gun like in half-life 2) and use it to kill people, is it not just as much murder as using a gun or a knife?
Or would I somehow get off because the law doesn't specifically count grav guns?
"Identity theft" is a misnomer. It is not illegal to have a copy of my credit card numbers, SSN, or other identifying information. It is illegal to use them to obtain goods or services in my name, but it's called "fraud".

Yeah, tea is *really* bad for keyboards. "instant death" is the best description for it.
Don't know why. I'd say the acid, except that coffee and soda are very acidic and don't seem to cause much problem.
I think the more apt translation would be:
"But that lobster might have been a bomb!"

Do you even know the definition of filial?
So those seven children of your grandfather's are his children? I never would have guessed.
It was 30 seconds, and that only applied to traditional fluorescents. CFLs were very close to incandescent in that regard.

h p3 ) or Lustre ( http://www.lustre.org/ ) or maybe ddraid ( http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/ddraid/ ) sound much closer to what googlefs is than AFS does.

Redhat's Global File System ( http://www.in.redhat.com/software/rha/gfs/index.p
IMO AFS is more of a file sharing protocol (like NFS or SMB) than googlefs.
Yeah, but some of them die, so it's all good.

There are other options as well, I'm sure.

I've been quite happy with the Atheros drivers, even supporting about 5 users on them.
The Dells I've worked with have had no trouble with installing 3rd-party miniPCI cards.
This symbol means dollars: $
/. apparently won't let me input it.
There's another symbol for cents(a c with a vertical line through it), but
So I'm going to guess since the parent used $, they meant dollars.
I doubt it's a typo. It's a common dysphemism.
When you apply for a job with IBM, do they show you the Websphere source? Why?
The GP didn't say that applying is all you have to do to get the source to Websphere. But I expect it is a prerequisite.What is this supposed to do for their recruitment efforts?
I'm pretty sure I could legally write a plugin system for grep which used binary plugin modules, release the plugin system's source, and then release closed source plugins. This seems reasonably comparable to what nvidia has done.
Wow, I think that's the most blatantly off-topic post I've seen on slashdot yet.
Try "printed".

What!? Why is AOL making decisions about my instant messages!? Did they hack into my server or something?

Good luck finding some.
Well... I don't need to know all the passwords of my users in order to copy the /etc/passwd file. The same principle applies to DVDs.

"...you are denying the owner his distribution rights."
No, you're not. The copyright owner still has the right to distribute the copyrighted information.
Ah. In that case I am two centuries old. HURR.
Hmm, 2006-1976 = 40.
Is this the new math again?
