You know somebody will probably figure out how toencode two different messages in one message. Decoding with the real key and the government backdoor will each give a different message.
There a couple of projects which add meta data to Linux.
The first can be found here. This project adds ACLs and extended attributes to the ext2 filesystem.
There is also the XFS filesystem. This features extended attributes, ACLs and journaling.
I have also heard that extended attributes and ACLs are planned to be supported in the 2.6 kernel. I hope this is true because I think extended attributes can be used to make the Linux Desktop Enviroments alot better.
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
As anyone read the actual guide? goodeasy. From the the wired article and these post this sounds like this was done on some sort of Unix. Wrong this was done on a Macintosh.
These things have always been part of the Mac philosophy. Apps do one thing and do it well, use keybinds for everything. This is why IE defeated Netscape on the Mac side even with Mac Users often fanactical hatred of Microsoft. IE just a web browser and supported Inter Config. In Inter Config you can say what apps you whant to handle http,ftp, news etc. Of course Netscape would not allow you to use other apps for email, or news. It had all that built-in.
Of course Linux GUIs and other web browsers are over-bloated "suites" or "platforms". Mozilla a "platform" for developing appications. Konqueror is a file manager was a built-in web browser. Nautilus is a file manager, web browser, note taker and help browser. Are lynx and IE for Mac the only web browsers that exist? I know IE for windows is os is supposed to be a file manager/web browser. But they don't do that on the Mac, knowing Mac users will have little tolerance for that.
Another thing these are missing is a Mac verison. Is there any Linux-Mac word processors available. "Cross-platform" word processors are either, Windows-Mac(MS Word) or Windows-Linux(Abiword, StarOffice,WordPerfect). If Abiword came out for the Mac I would probably switch to it and suggest it to everyone I know.
I agree kind of with this. But Mac OS X fixes this. In the file info there is a place for application. Where you can choose a application which opens only that file or opens all files of that type.
What would it take to push apple into making NeXTStep a truly cross-platform development environment again? If they did so, would anyone actually use it? (i.e. which is greater: the dirty feeling coming from using an MS platform, or the dirty feeling coming from using an apple (NeXT) platform.) Or is.NET better than *Step/Cocoa anyway?
Apple currently needs Microsoft for Office. Microsoft would not like Apple invading Windows by putting Cocoa on Windows or giving Linux a boost by putting Cocoa on that.
So Apple needs something to replace Office to get out of under MS control. The only real possibility is OpenOffice, but of course there is no Mac Version of OpenOffice and they report they need help porting to Mac OS X
I alternative to Word that could actually defeat.doc as the "standard" format is AbiWord free and small, so it is a easy download. But, it has the same problem OpenOffice has no Mac Version.
I think these two programs have no chance becoming wide spread without a Mac Version. Because basically anyone using any Macs can't use it. It is not "cross-platform" to them. Also us Mac Users would be very likely to go preaching the OpenOffice-Abiword gospel. We hated Microsoft before Linux existed, and I believe there are more of us then there are Linux users.
You know I was in a bar once and I noticed a old Street Fighter II game. So I thought I would play a game. I beat the game, I was shocked on how easily I did. I think the reason is I have play these Street Fighter games so long, the "original" was easy.
Slashdot Mirror
The Q.Bati seemed to be trying to put a Mac OS X interface in front of gecko. Unfortunately it seems to be vaporware :(
I just want to know as anyone found any evidence of terrorists using anything "high tech" for WTC?
The highest tech I have heard of is using email at Kinko's.

Israel is arguably the best place in the Middle East to be a Muslim.
Not according to this article
And not according to the UN Racism conference.

4th Admendment?

Nah, just send them the document in its native form. If they complain that they can't open it, just tell them they will have to get OpenOffice.
A 35MB download!! are you nuts?
If you want to do this use Abiword and ask them to download that
Only a 3.4MB download
maybe the idea is to be ahead of the game instead of playing the typical open source catch up game.
They are trying to what? I hope RMS and co. put a stop to this!

Many GUI's have keybinds for most if not all of the menu commands.
So the menus can act as built in reference cards
In case you haven't already noticed, Konqueror is NOT a web browser. It is an application framework for their KParts technology.
Well Mozilla is NOT an web browser either. It is an application framework for running XUL applications.

Install the Developers tools for the developers tools CD. It installs an compiler
I was actually thinking about getting a AMEX card. But after seeing this, that is a lot less likely.
Great Post!
You know on the freenet they have this say, "For press inquiries, please contact Ian Clarke"
Wow they make it easy to for the press to get info
Microsoft is probably a phone call away for a lot of these reporters.
Where would the press go to ask about Linux?
One game I have always wanted to see an open version of is Aerobiz
We will have a tag for :)
I agree kind of with this. But Mac OS X fixes this. In the file info there is a place for application. Where you can choose a application which opens only that file or opens all files of that type.
It would be called 2.4.10. The latest 2.2 is called 2.2.19
All MS GUI's SUCK
Maybe it would be possible to make a good GUI?
I have found that Webmin provides a GUI for Apache. But have never tried using it.
Germany, Switzerland or Austria (thats all in Europe)
I just find it funny the fact you had to point that out
but choose the language that best meets your needs
The problem with this is, how to you choose the best language for your needs without learning them?
I wanted to know would it be possible to make a similar virus for Linux using a Bash Shell.
If not, why not?
