I've set up Thatware on a couple sites now, and even though PHP Nuke's flashier and more gimmick-y, Thatware is still the king of the hill when it comes to solid, easy to use, fast, maintainable code. I also really like how modular it is, and that I can look at the code and have it make sense, which is a rarity these days. My compliments to the chef! =P
Oh, really? I'm sure you're running a current version of the CBOS for the Cisco 600 series, right, since the other ones are prone to being seriously DoS'ed, among other things.
It's funny, though, that even after releasing this alert about the Cisco 675, it still took me three emails to the Cisco TAC and finally a threat to hold them liable for any consequential damages arising from the liability before they'd give me access to the updated CBOS files.
Seriously, though, if you're running a Cisco 675 with an earlier version of the CBOS than 2.3.5, you might want to consider updating, unless you want to be an unwitting accomplice to a DoS attack, or worse. I presume that the Alcatel compromise could lead to similar vulnerabilities.
Hopefully the rewrite will make it possible to port Perl to Palm devices (that outta be a tongue twister.) The core install of modules that come with Perl this days are far too large to fit into the memory footprint, and I'm looking forward to the day when I'll be able to script on a Palm device (using a foldout keyboard of course.)
My guess it that Python porters were able to overcome this obstacle by writing much of Python in Python itself, hence Pippy.
Once Perl 6 is released, though, the Perl community will be able to quickly play catch up, and get a port out rapidly. Woohoo!
Well, I just finished shoehorning OpenBSD onto my laptop about a month ago, and I gotta say that I'm actually pretty happy with it. KDE works great, Konqueror kicks Netscape's butt as far as I'm concerned, I can do development work on the road with Apache/Perl/MySQL/Postgresql/PHP, and I'm comfortable showing it to PHB's, because one of my windows managers is flashy, futuristic, and animated. Also, chicks really dig the Matrix screensaver. (:
Power management works, my Logitech USB Optical Wheel Mouse works, my digital camera works using Gphoto. Oh, did I mention that it has never crashed? Did I mention that when I wiped the default windoze installation off the drive tat it went from a 1.1 GB base install to a 700 MB install, and that's including 300 MB of swap space?
In fact, although I'm pretty sure that most people think of the BSDs as server operating systems, (particularly OpenBSD), I'm just giddy over here. Yes, it was a lot of work, and sure, Linux would have probably worked pretty well, but I like the svelt, clean BSD design, and the BSDs are what I'm most comfortable with.
This article is actually pretty timely, since I am going to be puting FreeBSD on my dual processor desktop machine next week (never played with it much before), and I'm sure I'll pick up a few pointers and get to read a couple "*BSD is dying*" trolls along the way.
For a piece of Mir, I'd trade my two Karma Whore accounts on Slashdot, my Natalie Portman Grits collection, an 8x10 glossy picture of the Goatse.cx autographed by Cyborg Monkey, and the password to the secret backdoor accounts that were installed in MySQL last time the Slashcode got cracked.
I mean, what's the point in my getting a clone of my boa constricter (Richard the Third - not because of his lineage but because he's my third boa), if it's not going to live as long as the original?
Also, I wonder what the return policy will be like for professional cloning services, if it turns out I wasted my money on a lemon?
Up, down, it's all the same to me over here. And I appreciate your sympathy. But I'm serious; I need my Instant Schlessinger fix or I don't feel... whole.
Interoperability is an admirable goal. I want, nay, I need to be able to communicate with my best friends BrittneyFan478 and K0rnRuleZ47 from my X desktop running Enlightenment on Slackware, dammit. And if the FCC can't force AOL to open up their service, perhaps we can just emulate the buffer overruns they use to authenticate the AIM clients using WINE, no?
It's really tragic, in my opinion, that many of the companies that are holding back from trying to get funding these days because of the market turbulence are the ones who are creating truly innovative, robust platforms or products. Turbolinux's distribution, while not terribly popular, has been an excellent desktop for my graphics workstation, and I really admire their dedication to the Open Source ideal.
I hope that the market bottoms out before all these tech companies with solid products go under; it would be tragic to see the Open Source revolution derailed because of a worldwide economic collapse.

$20 at a thrift store two weeks ago. I probably paid too much, but I just couldn't resist.
What do you get for these on eBay?
Yeah, I especially like all the pop-up ads on the psycho-ex-girlfriend link.

Food for thought.
I really haven't looked into the alternatives, as I'm a big fan of AIM, all twelve inches of it in fact.
Hahahahaha I think you're serious. Either that or you've elevated trolling to an entirely new art form.

Just who are you calling a ho? Just because I am using a female name gives you no right to reefer to me as a 'ho'.

Why'd ya quit, if ya don't mind me asking?
And how, exactly, is this "Off-Topic"? Do you moderators even have the faintest clue who Touretzky is?
