I've seen interference on CRT monitors from cell phones, but to my mind that's to be expected. After all, these are electromagnetic-wave-emitting devices, and cathode rays are directly affected by the resultant magnetic field.
With Linux (or BSD), I'm not forced into running a GUI on a server. All services and subsystems are configurable via whatever text editor I find handy. Installing software (except perhaps kernels) doesn't require rebooting the system.
I disagree, this has nothing to do with such a philosophy at all.
It is simple economic fact: The government, as an entity, is purely parasitic. Ideally, a symbiotic (symeconomic?) relationship develops where the burden of maintaining the parasite is seen as worthwhile, due to benefits that it's presence brings.
For instance, I would never advocate attempting to have this country operate without a military, without policing, etc. etc.
But NOONE should make the mistake of thinking that 'the government is rich' or that 'the government can afford it' when considering the financial implications of spending programs. The money is generated by the people pursuing life, liberty and happiness. We are willing to pay, and pay well, for services rendered. We are deeply unhappy when our money is used for nefarious, stupid, or simply wasteful purposes.
Unfortunately, the only reason that a lot of money flows from government coffers into industry, is that these very same dollars have been extracted from some other industry, or directly from our pockets.
Never make the mistake of believing that our government has any money to spend. It has only your money and mine, and it's not asking for permission nearly often enough.
Yes, I'd say it's accurate that an assumption is being made here. If prevailing theory states that asteroids are of an age, then a meteorite derived from such an asteroid would be of a similar age.
Of course, from my point of view that's a danged safe assumption. To me the young-earth ideas are pretty far-fetched, akin to a flat-earth, or an earth built as a platform atop the back of a turtle, or an elephant... Or for that matter, an earth which is situated as a sort of battle-ground between two diametrically-opposed spiritual planes called heaven and hell.
Anomalous plant growth has been noted in the vicinity of the meteorite strike, with nearly complete coverage of the immediate vicinity with lush, dense foliage. The homeowners could not be reached for comment.
I think that just goes to show how egregious the rights violations committed by the Bush administration really are. If a man like Mr. Tipper Gore can get all huffy and upset about how invasive the government is becoming, it is perhaps already too late for the rest of us.
I seem to recall that years ago a number of municipalities around the US raised a stink by publishing the names of people who had been convicted of the truly terrible offense of visiting a prostitute.
I suppose it stopped when someone too high up was found on one of the lists.
BUT: We are now only nine turns away from being able to BUILD a fusion plant. Next I think we should go after 'Future Technology I'.

There is no other way to explain the conclusions we've seen reported for this book, except that Brown spent a good deal of time in Amsterdam coffeehouses, consuming high-grade grass.
That report is from a year ago. My question now, since I DID watch a military spokesman a few weeks ago saying that they absolutely aren't using such munitions today: ARE they still using them today?
Not gonna happen, unless they go ahead and block port 443 (https) as well. Just watch the fur fly then! The old 'run sshd on port 443 trick' works every time.

Uh huh, that's what it was, sloppy coding that leads to one's new virus being very difficult to analyze and fight...
So who's copying whom?

Do they save more electricity with this system than they would by shutting down all the servers involved? :-)

The only problem I have with your post is this:
It caused me to check out the loser of a parent post that inspired you. Now I feel all dirty and stuff.
Oh, hell no. A buyout (which many of us suspect was an original motivation behind SCO's suit) would be rewarding the rat-bastards.
Crush, kill, destroy. That is the only option for an outfit run by McBride and company.

I think someone misunderstood the meaning of the term 'shotgun wedding'.
You leave out a third and entirely possible scenario:
3: The US bombs a wedding party taking place amongst a gathering of rebels...
I seem to recall that years ago a number of municipalities around the US raised a stink by publishing the names of people who had been convicted of the truly terrible offense of visiting a prostitute.

Not anymore. Now they're turning over in my fuel tank.

We *were*
That report is from a year ago. My question now, since I DID watch a military spokesman a few weeks ago saying that they absolutely aren't using such munitions today: ARE they still using them today?
I call bullshit. We are simply not using them, PARTICULARLY in urban areas.
We are doing enough things wrong for REAL, you don't need to go to the tinfoil hat brigade for news.
And where are we going to get gorillas to kill THOSE viruses?
Cutting off their ears won't do any good, they'll just turn up the volume. You've gotta cauterize out the eardrums.
The first ten dependencies on the long road to installing MythTV. :-)
Ultimately, the brick companies will come out on top of both straw and wood concerns.
