Rumsfeld's resignation was timed such that Bush can force the nomination of his replacement through a Republican Senate. If he'd waited much longer, the Senate would be controlled by the Democrats and Bush might actually have to pick someone good.
Ginsberg, who was recommended for nomination by Orrin Hatch (back in the days when presidents used to listen to the other party) and confirmed 96-3 by the Senate. The Republicans are as much to blame for her as the Democrats.
TCAS devices already talk to each other. They decide between themselves who will climb and who will dive, and the pilots are notified accordingly. It doesn't matter who uses what algorithm, as long as both systems are in agreement as to who is climing and who is descending.
Why bother with any of the conspiracy/delinquency of a minor charges that may or may not stick? Subordination of perjury on its own is a disbarrable offense.
Just because you don't live in an area with a large Jewish community doesn't mean you're out of luck. Coca-Cola designates certain bottling plants to bottle real-sugar Coke for Passover, and if you live in an area with one of those plants, chances are you will be able to get the good stuff for a couple of weeks during the year.
(I used to live in a little town in Indiana where this was the case. 8 Jews, kosher bottling plant, one kid who was allergic to corn and was very happy when his family found out that they could buy Coke at a certain time of year)
That's not surprising. Most four-year-old hardware will work better on Linux than the brand-new equivalent, because various developers have had four years to write drivers.
What is impressive about nVidia is that their brand-new hardware works just as well under Linux as the four-year-old stuff.
I also have an Ultra 2 (2x300) that I installed Gentoo on. It took two days over a serial console (18 hours of compilation).
The real problem wasn't the speed of the CPUs; the disk performance on this thing is ABYSMAL. As an experiment, I partitioned an SATA hard drive on my amd64 machine and mounted the U2's/usr,/var, and/opt partitions over nfs (after building a LiveCD that could do so). The compile time dropped to 14 hours.
If you truly believe that you have some sort of God-given/Constitutionally-mandated right to shine a high-powered laser into the cockpit of a 747, then you truly need a reality check.
I hate to break this to you, but it was a Cessna Citation, not a 747.
Evil people taking over organizations designed to defeat them is nothing new. It's just like what the Mafia did to the police, or what the Church of $cientology did to the Cult Awareness Network.
Like the simulated Bush draft-dodging memos that killed CBS as a messenger of their subsequent Iraqmire documentary. The mediacracy prefers potatoes to surfers.
The Bush memos were probably given to CBS by someone affiliated with the Republican party specifically so CBS could be discredited. And so that they could blame the Kerry campaign for spreading false information.
Ok, I agree that this guy deserves to be punished. But how did this get into the YRO section? It has very little to do with my rights. Regardless of what the law says, I do not have a moral right to operate a device in my car that will distract me to the point where I will have an accident, whether it be a DVD player or an iPod or whatever. And it's certainly not online...he was driving his truck in Alaska!

This isn't rocket science. If it were rocket science, there's a fairly good chance you'd need a security clearance for it in the first place.

I don't think the founders of US government expected it to last nearly long as it has.
TCAS devices already talk to each other. They decide between themselves who will climb and who will dive, and the pilots are notified accordingly. It doesn't matter who uses what algorithm, as long as both systems are in agreement as to who is climing and who is descending.
Unfortunately, there's nobody running against her.
What's that from? It's a quote worth repeating :)
AFAIK, it's the cheapest dual-core laptop out there...
The performance problem with VirtualPC isn't only CPU speed. VirtualPC's disk performance is ABYSMAL.

Maybe the firewall keeps Jews out. Or in. In that case, the term "Nazi-ish" would be correct.

Crazy stuff.

Also ATI support for linux [and specially x86_64] SUCKS ASS.
The Radeon 9200 series has open-source drivers included with xorg. My AMD box has a Radeon 9200 and my glxgears score is 1566 fps.
Oh, and I paid $65 for the card a year ago. You could probably pick one up for $50 now.
He's also very popular in a part of the country where Bush is very unpopular.

BSD is slashdotted :)

What are you, a fucking park ranger now?
Unless you're an elections supervisor in Florida.

Editors, care to explain?
