I heard that too, supposedly, NT is based on Mach, but after they tried to make it more "windows-like" it ceased to be Mach anymore... (like Like A. Skywalker--after turning to the darkside, he ceased to be A. Skywalker and became D. Vader.)
Also, Microsoft is responsible for Xenix, one of the first ports of Unix (system V) to the x86 platform.

What is the point of a space station if it is right outside the earth's atmosphere? Lets be serious here, we should colonize the moon first... Here's why: 1) We are running out of space on earth. 2) Rockets can landon the moon to refuel if they had to. 3) The low levels of gravity would make for awesome basketball games (then i might actually make the team...) 4) If done right, (artificial light, heat, air (like a space station) it could be an even better International Space project, because people from different countries would actually want to go there.
I'd rather have a Qualcomm pdQ. (i think that's what it is called.) It is a cell phone with a built in Palm Pilot. I could use my OWN ISP account which is cheaper than paying for their service, it will work nation-wide on standard Cellular (or CDMA) networks, and it comes with a neeto WebBrowser/Emailer. It is more cost effective too, because it is also a cell phone, so instead of paying for a cell phone, an ISP, and a Blackberry/Palm VII every month, you just pay for your cell phone and ISP.
Witches and satanists are coping with the same problems. Some witches call themselves "white witches" to discern themselves from the stereotypical witch
However most witches, decided that "witch" was bad PR, so their religion is now called Wikken (sp?). When a name gets a bad conotation, then you have to make a new one with a good conotation, and make everyone know its good.
1. It sounds cool (this is why script kiddies like it) 2. It gives off a sense of dignity, which "code monkey" just will never have. 3. It dosn't sound like a 10 year old though it up.
My submission is simply "TECH". eg. "I'm a tech." or "I don't know how to configure Apache, ask Tim, he's a tech." I like it better than techie, because, well, it doesn't cound like trekkie. You can still say that you "hack" code, but the title, would be Tech, rather than hacker.
Ok, that wasn't too stupid, now was it?

I tried installing Linux circa RH 4.1 and it wouldn't recognize the SCSI adapter that my cdrom dive was attatched to...
Only if the cars/roads are powered by Windows. Besides, a better sstem would be to use GPS in all vehicles, and install "crash protection" software/computers, that would slow/stop the car before it got too close to another.
Simple, separate the carbon and the oxygen... now we can breathe... Then, combine some of the oxygen with hydrogen, now we have water. The carbon can be used to make diamonds(for tools) and the energy from the fission/fusion can be used to provide electricity to power the first colonies on Mars.

Jesuit-shmesuit... The Brothers of the Christian Schools, who run Manhattan College and La Salle, are cooler than the Jesuits. hehehe. My Catholic high school is better than yours!
its on the wrong side. Looks like they designed the PDA for Left-handed people. I would rather hold it with my left hand and operate it with my right. maybe if the grip is reversable, though.... I wanna see the price first, but i might buy one. I was too young to have used one of the originals, but now, maybe i'll give it a chance.

Perhaps Linux should have one secure filesystem with journaling, software raid/mirror possiblity and so on. And one extreamly fast filesystem
How about XFS = Secure FS and ext3 = Fast FS? I don't think (for my purposes) that i need a journaling FS, I'm doing pretty good without it, so i could use ext3, while anyone who needed the extra security could still have it.
The mathematical definition of a line doesn't say it is straight, only that it never ends. See any ends in a circle? nope. Can it be made up of points on a graph, yup, (an infinite number, yes, but still...)

FreeBSD is based on 386BSD. Linux is something Linus dreamed of when he realized that Minix's licence sucked, so he wrote a clone and GPL'd it. Minix is a clone of Unix, so Linux is actually a clone of a clone. However, more companies are starting to port their software to linux than to FreeBSD. Besides, Linux makes a good PC, FreeBSD makes a good server, any questions?

Hacker is a word that has many sides to it:

NT doesn't have the integrated Internet Explorer. 95 and 98 install it by default.
Worldn't surprise me, they use Unix on Hotmail.
if 2.3.0 is the same as 2.2.8, does that mean that 2.3.0 is stable (at least for now?)

Actually FreeBSD = REAL UNIX
Linux = UNIX CLONE
FreeBSD is based on 386BSD. Linux is something Linus dreamed of when he realized that Minix's licence sucked, so he wrote a clone and GPL'd it.
