  1. Re:But the question everyone is asking is on Linux Kernel 2.4.10 · · Score: 1
    He means 2.5.
    So did I, I just accidentaly added the '.4'. I'm sure you've never made a mistake before.

    Take out the .4 from the first 2 sentences and I stand by them.

    Didn't you notice that a 2.3 kernel was never officially released? They went straight from 2.2 to 2.4.
    I got the last paragraph right, as I meant it (which shows what I meant to say, and I do understand how kernel versions work).

    The 2.3 kernel was never officially released, not in the same way that 2.2 and 2.4 were anyway. I know it was available, but it wasn't official becaue it was stil devel.

    So I stand by my last statements and attribute the first ones to a minor brain fart.

    You mean 2.4.6, and that will probably be out in several months.

    2.4.5 already exists, when it becomes suitably non-crashy, they wil release it as 2.4.6.

    Sorry if someone else already posted this but...

    This from the Philly Daily News:

    Apparently this is an Associated Press photo (they claim it hasn't been modified) of the WTC on fire. You can see a face in the smoke.

  5. Re:Bullying doesn't cause killer kids on Are Kids Turning Your Kids Into Killers? · · Score: 2

    I agree with you that probably the best solution to this problem would be if people were better parents, but I don't think that it has anything to do with whether it is a two parent family or not. Lots of families are split up not because of issues like divorce, but by tragedy. What do you suggest should happen in a case where a car accident or an illness kills one parent early on? Should the surviving parent go out and find a 'replacement' for the sole purpose of giving the kids a good home environment? I think that would end up causing more problems. I think the issue is not the family structure. It doesn't matter whether there are one, two, or three primary care givers, what race they are, what religion, etc. What matters is that they love their kids, take good cre of them, and wish the best for them. For instance, I am sure many kids are raised primarily by loving older siblings, uncles, grandparents, etc, and live in a very healthy home environment; while many others are raised by their biological parents and deal with issues like abuse. People shouldn't raise kids for the 'fun' of it. They should only raise them if they are willing to commit the rest of their lives to their children, and be less selfish about spending their time and resources on the child's happiness (within reason) and well-being.
