oh grow up. I've been adminning unix boxes long b4 u have im sure. i've installed slowlaris at least a million times and yes i know how to allocate space on partitions, dimwit. I've been using slowlaris practically forever too. Slowlaris sucks cause : [1] it doesnt have bash (or any decent shell like tcsh - see IRIX which does come with tcsh by default) [2] No free compiler (huh ? which braindead twit doesnt include a compiler with a unix?) [3] Default install is guaranteed to screw up the filesystem unless you allocate space manually (why? why? why not just have more space for all the partitions by default? *why* do i have to do it manually *every* time?) [4] Frustrating and annoying SysV style conventions and crap GUI (Click apply in the gui print config via admintool and then click OK and it gives an error - why? why?) [5] No ssh (huh ? no secure shell ? no alternative ? wtf ?) or kerberised telnet or secure telnet. [6] Patch list is HUGE -- and often incomplete. (why oh why do i have to search in a million places to find patches? why doesnt 2.6_Recommended come with *everything* and remain current with monthly updates?) [7] No decent GUI or even text scripts (do i really want to add/etc/defaultrouter on *every* system i install ? why cant it be added at install time ? why cant/etc/resolv.conf be updated for dns lookups at install time ?) I *dislike* slowlaris because of all this crap - OSF/1, Irix, AIX and other commercial unixes *dont* put admins thru all this braindead bullshit every time you install them. Ever installed 500 boxes at one go ? I have - and it sucks.
yep. solaris is also a crummy piece of shit operating system - to get it to do something nice you gotta preload all the stuff from www.sunfreeware.com and install huge patchsets from sun. its default partitioning also needs to be fixed at install time (allocates too little space for / etc)..Once its up and running tho - its a joy to use.
The USPTO is overworked and overwhelmed. There is no way they can cope with the number of patents..want to do something positive ? write your congressman - patent reform is urgently needed.
besides most of us code for free because we like doing it..and also have "real" jobs on the side. i doubt any reasonable geek would starve anyway, given todays economy. hell..im dumping half my salary in the bank just because i cant *spend* it all..
hmm..having a -2 for really stupid posts also would help. i.e. if 5 or more moderators gave a -1 to the idiotic posts then the post goes to -2, deleted. Also having access to the input queue and allowing us to read articles before they come to the main page would be helpful.
oh bullshit. the average programmer who codes for free doesnt give a flying fuck about the companies and doesnt kiss ass. what difference does it make if i post garbage to/. or piss off bruce perens ? does that interfere with my ability to code and release free software? no. i code for pleasure as most of us do and work on my own projects.
here's the dump from netcrafts query page : Sorry, couldn't determine what the server was for host hurd.zugzug.com on port 80. interesting to see that netcraft couldnt determine the server.
umm..dude ? Samba supports PDC functionality - at least in the head branch. i run a cluster of 50 NT4 workstations which do domain logins to 1 redhat box running samba. of course a nightly mirrored rsync server is available. working flawlessly for 82 days now with no problems.
this really pisses you off ? what if the police were using their guns to stick you up ? or murder you ? would you feel happy then ? because thats exactly what the government is doing - legitimising a criminal act. note that carrying guns for law enforcement or using a computer is different from hacking a computer and robbing you with a gun.
no..the probes split apart..they have no feet. they simply break and burrow into the soil before transmitting. if they hit a rock, they'd shatter it at the 400mph velocity.
yep. this can be confirmed by looking at the websites.... this was one of the known "problems" that they faced which could theoretically destroy the vehicle.
Slashdot Mirror
arent they doing that anyway ?

cos its going to expire soon anyway and we can all use PNGs now...or non LZW compressed GIFs.

slash pre0.3 is available.
rpm is also far simpler and neater. its just a tarball with a simple specfile. very easy and simple to write the specfile and recompile as a rpm.

proxy. sadly enough these idiots can use proxies.

bullshit. besides i've always wanted to reprogram the genes of a suitable host so that i can live >1000 yrs. if we can do it in the lab..why not ?
huh ? and how are they going to track you from the serial # ? You could just give a fake name+ addy to the store.
Any chance of GPLising and releasing it ? Or is this going to be locked down proprietary forever ?
run anonymiser and just watch those domains validate themselves.
no. eros is a rather kewl new OS being developed. refer to previous /. stories or search on google.
neither are necessary for an OS. GNU tools (compiler, basic shell utils etc etc) are more than sufficient.

sorry but altivec isnt supported with linux. or beowulf. and altivec is only FPU.

and how do you secure your private keys ? remember that they can get the private keyfiles from your hard drives.
