Why will it contain this crap? Because it really doesn't matter what you use as long as you learn the unix philosophy, so just pick a distro that you like, be it Debian, RedHat, Mandrake, Suse, Caldera or even FreeBSD or something
I agree upto a point, but it's a bit hard to pick a distro if you've never used one
Personally, I recommend Mandrake, but I had high hopes for the second version of Corel.
Perhaps there ought to be a distro-eval HOWTO, giving a brief rundown on the filesystem structure and explaining why you don't have to format the whole disk when you want to reinstall
As the subject says, a good commentary on the current state of Q3 competition by a site that is focused on competetive 3D gaming, ShackES
here's a snip:
That was a fun time, but now there is no next time. There's online leagues, and maybe another online tourney from Cache, but really, what's out there for a Quake 3 player? We like the game, and we'll keep playing the game, but what is there to look forward too. Where's the reason to practice hard?

Maybe I'm just jaded, but I don't see what the use of a language is these days without a good DB connectivity library. Did I miss it in the FAQ or the Reference Manual?
I was in Seoul recently (this past week)
It was interesting to see how much differently computer games pervade society. There are posters everywhere for Lineage, various Blizzard games, and Tribes 2. There are little PC cafes tucked into seemingly every street corner.
I spent a couple afternoons in one of those playing Starcraft with some Korean friends. I beat them down, but they took it good naturedly.
The youth there seem to need more of an outlet, an escape from reality, than the people I know here in California.

Quake didn't exist in '94 or '95. Qtest itself came out 24 FEB 96, with the release date sometime in JUL 96
also, if you had the VESA drivers, you could run software quake as high as you wanted (albeit slowly).

it's only a model
no, we need to send it to Brian Walker so he actually has a reentry vehicle
I belive this is the quote of which you speak:

Ebooks would be a LOT more popular if there were more titles, and they were easily traded like music via an interface like napster.
So, does it contain the 7 line DeCSS implementation? how about just the ascii "Natalie Portman"? goatse.cx?
gives new meaning to the term "bottom line" :-)

The Hacker Crackdown is a great text that is relevant still today, umpteen internet years later.
A spacecraft could suck ionized material in the front end, accelerate it down the middle and then expell it out the rear.
it's called a Bussard Ramjet

one of the biggest advantages of "normal" routers is that they're solid state. there aren't any moving parts (fans/spindles/etc) to wear out.

is a good thing.
OTEC is another underrated renewable energy source.

with typical TTM, areal densities for existing hard drive technologies will have easily eclipsed 60Gbits
what ever happened to NFR (Near Field Recording) drives? I remember them being touted as the next big thing about four years ago

the UCITA is hardly Uniform if each state implements and interprets it differently.
