Then, sturdy Kevlar cord was used to reel in the capsule, which weighed about 3,000 pounds with the water inside.
Your little sister could lift 2000 pounds of water, in water. Everyone whos ever been cooling a barrel of beer in a lake will know what Im talking about.
Without doubt, this is the coolest piece of Perl the world has ever seen.

WSJ Says Linux Lags
·
· Score: 1
If it's not spectacular, it's not woth writing about. So either "Linux on its way to world domination" or "Linux greatest hoax of the century" is their way to go.
I wouldn't trust anybody who has spent the last 5 years with Windows, tried to install Linux once, failed at the first attempt and now tries to tell everyone his truth.
I remember having quite a hard time when I installed NT for the first time (years ago). "Easy", "user friendly", "intuitive", they are all subjective impressions.
The callers: They are lying - wouldnt give me a comfortable feeling
The employers: Someone steals their money, indirectly at least.
(WORST) The ones that are really sick: If this goes mainstream, nobody will believe them, so they will have to come to work, no matter how bad their health is.
I bet all you guys who start screaming immediately "SuSE doesnt ship with Gnome!" after someone says "SuSE ships with KDE", are the same people who answer every question being asked with the usual "RTFM".
Seriously... SuSE released their 6.0 just a few days before the first 2.2.0pre kernels came out. I find this practice not very professional. They should have been waiting a few weeks for 2.2.0 to appear. So we have a new distro relase number with an old-fashioned, yet rock steady kernel.
The bad thing(tm)? SuSE claim their distro is 2.2-ready, but they dont have a clue on how to get 2.2.x to work. "If you want to print, use 2.0.36", they say on their site.
Im printing with SuSE and 2.2.3. Strange, huh?;-)
And, another bad thing(tm): Beginning with 6.0, they put the kernel image into some/boot filesystem, which seems quite non-standard to me.
If it comes to slim, reliable production systems, wheres NT?
-squid -bind -sendmail -cron -command-line based administration -instant scripting
Let those M$ weenies go with M$-Office, but when it comes to servers, nobody who ever managed to find out how Unix really works (including BSD, Linux), will go the way back to NT.
Hmmm. Why does a graphic GUI make installing easier than a terminal-based menu driven installation? I've been sticking to SuSE for 2 years now and everyone who has been looking over my shoulders will tell you that installation looks far more easier than installation of e.g. Windows NT.
From my point of view, terminal based installs have nothing but advantages over graphical GUIs. They're fast, they're fail safe, they're compatible. Oh, they are indeed less pretty, but nobody, not even end users would complain about that if they got a possibility to use it.

Yeah, who? Maybe I underestimate this by far, but this doesnt seem to be worth a slashdot news entry at all.

Well, this is how the press tells us facts.

I bet they havent had that many hits for ages.
All real DNS queries seem to be working, dont they?

Authoritative answers can be found from:

I consider the /boot issue mentionend in my earlier post even worse. They are trying to tie users to their own distributed kernels.
Untar a stock kernel, compile. The machine will come up with the original SuSE kernel.
If it wasnt for the great localization support, I would have already turned my back on SuSE.

Well, this is how they are going to make their marketing slogan true.
Is there any real reason (except for inferior coolness) against it?
I have production machines on P133 and PII/233. No problems yet.
...you knew that definitely nobody in here cares 'bout weak 3rd world currencies.

Help me please, I don't get it.
I only know 3 ways that might be able to improve my "Internet Experience":
1 - Bandwidth
2 - Bandwidth
3 - Bandwidth
...if I accepted your offer and only got $50 per hour afterwards, thanks. :-)
Who cares about the name? What is important here, is that you have something to prove that you at least have some kind of validated expertise.
;-)
Thinking of MCSE, I don't believe that a major brand name has to stand behind a certification program.
Oh. First post or what?
Will they also drop it? Are we all going to be supposed to run exchange servers? ;-)
Not that Id believe Im one of the "elite" folks, but reading the same article over and over again, every two weeks starts to become sucky.
Though I happen to like the SuSE distro, I find the version leap to a "2.2 ready" 6.0 version more than sucky. M$ methods.
