I have been doing this for years now and so have a lot of people I know. Isn't this like common knowledge. Yea wow pullout drives! Never seen those before! Must be new! I can't believe this actually made the front page, while so many other good original articles get rejected. It proves to me once again of how clueless the people are that run Slashdot.
When I was a team leader in the Army I could tell exactly how fast my driver was driving by looking at the GPS. Worked magnificantly even without having the "fill" to up accuracy. Never the less I don't agree with the use of this technology for "Big Brother" purposes.
Ok, it might cost a little more, but I have found that having a pull out bay to be a much better alternative than a boot manager. One drive for *nix and the other drive for Windoze. Just pop in the drive for the OS you want. It does suck though for people that can't afford or want this alternative.
Now that Stormix is gone I am glad to see that there is something else like LibraNet to fill the void of "easy install distro" for Debian. I primarily use Red Hat, however, I am happy to always see competition as it is obviously good. Long live Linux and whatever distro you prefer!
If we had done something wrong then we should apologize, but we haven't, so this would be not appropriate. I personally wouldn't want the United States to capitulate to get me out of this bind just because it is the easy way out. I served six years in the Military. I was a team leader who led a team on reconnaissance missions in the former Yugoslavia. We carried sensitive material for which we had an appropriate scuttle plan in the event we thought we might become captive. I hope they did so before they landed. If these people are anything like my team they are sitting tight and keeping quiet and when speaking evading straight answers. Lets keep in mind that (even though a school can't prepare you for everything) because of their role they more than likely have attended S.E.R.E. (Survival Evasion Resistance Escape) school, which is supposed to prepare you for situations like this. Since they are allowing a bi-daily visit and they are in a unique situation of supposedly being treated better than the standard prisoner. The United States should start sending care packages of all sorts of goodies and electronic gadgets to make a bad situation easier for them not to mention piss the Chinese off.
I have noticed that it seems like it's taking longer for Red Hat to produce releases. I have been a faithful Red Hat user for over three years now. I have purchased several releases while I could have donwloaded them, but decided against it as I wanted to put money into the Linux community. I have tried other distros, but have always come back because I like the way Red Hat does certain things etc. It seems like Red Hat is kind of falling behind e.g. Suse has had 2.4.x along with a journaling file system for some time now. I was actually considering trying the new Suse out but decided against it because of their corporate policy. I was going to download it and if it did what I needed I was honestly going to buy it however, after I saw their attitude I decided against it.See 3/27
So here I am waiting for 7.1 to be released. What is the hold up for Red Hat 7.1 ? Why does it seem like it is taking longer between releases ? I have tried many JFS systems, but what journaling file system do you think will be the future standard for the Red Hat distro?
You have some good points e.g. "I suppose if a company is small and pathetic instead of large and evil then it's OK for them to charge money? If MS went out of business I doubt you would hear many "It's a shame" comments."
Slashdot Mirror
I tried to list books that would not become too dated over time although some might:
/013490012X
TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 1: The Protocols W. Richard Stevens / Addison-Wesley / 0201633469
Internetworking With Tcp/Ip Douglas Comer / Prentice Hall / 0130183806
The C Programming Language Brian W. Kernighan / Prentice Hall / 0131103628
Unix Network Programming, 2nd Edition, Volume 1; Networking APIs: Sockets and XTI W. Richard Stevens / Prentice Hall
Real World Linux Security : Intrusion Prevention, Detection and Recovery Bob Toxen / Prentice Hall / 0130281875
Building Internet Firewalls, 2nd Edition Elizabeth Zwicky, et al / O'Reilly & Associates / 2000 / 1565928717
A little dated but is still a good book IMHO:
Firewalls and Internet Security: Repelling the Wily Hacker William R. Cheswick, et al / Addison-Wesley / 0201633574

The NSA is in Maryland and not Virginia. The CIA is in Virginia.

We finally got the 2.4 kernel and all of the other bells and whistles that should have gone in 7.0!!!! Off to the store I go!
Actually AsiaDisney. :-)
