The same is possible and has always been possible for FreeBSD. You can grab the entire source tree whenever you choose, then build your own system. If this doesn't suit you then snapshots are made daily, just not an ISO. There's really no point in building a 650MB image daily when there are better methods for keeping up to date.
Perhaps next time please look into things before boasting that Slackware does something that FreeBSD doesn't.
Okay, Do you know anyone who runs Linux? I don't know anyone who runs just Linux, seems a bit pointless to me just to run a kernel.
You obviously knew what he meant. Also, if RedHat isn't Linux then who funds the vast majority of Linux development?
Down with redhat all you want, but Linux wouldn't be half the operating system it is today without their major contributions. Not saying that this was what you were saying, but that's the overall impression I get reading/.
The site indicates that a MSI based installer will be available shortly for this release. Source is available however I don't have awk and other tools installed so I can't compiled it.
If anyone remembers the Agenda VR3 from Agenda computing, I own one. I bought the developer model for about $170. It was only decent because the price was cheap. Recently AgendaComputing seems to have pulled out of the US, and now I'm left only with community support and rare updates from AgendaComputing DE.
While this doesn't bother me a whole lot and I still use the device on occasion, if I were a road warior type who depends on a PDA for realistic business purposes I'd be rather unsatisfied. Windows support for syncing the device has never seemed to work quite right, and that's a key factor for the business world. The business world doesn't care what us geeks run as our desktop, if it doesn't sync with popular office products then it's simply useless.
To me it was interesting that the VR3 was based on Linux 2.4.x, but noone really cares otherwise. They simply notice that the device that they spent $300 or so on doesn't perform and assist them in their daily work, therefore its a dud. If his claims are true then he's correct in his opinions that it failed. I enjoy having the whole source tree for my pda on my machine and being able to modify it as much as possible, but we're a slim minority, don't forget that.
Doubt it's going to happen. We've had an IIS/Win2k machine up with SQL server and everything for a year now. We've done nothing extreme to secure it, just patches, etc. No one's even touched it. No firewalls, nothing. Any braindead admin can secure a windows machine.
The work packets are already incredibly small. 200 bytes represents anywhere from 2^28 keys to 2^33 keys. At this stage in the rc5-64 contest the blocks are getting smaller as they've already run through they keyspace once and the little tidbits are left to be accounted for.
Installer doesn't hold your hand because the intended audience isn't the pirate who got pissed because Microsoft requires them to register the latest version of Windows.
FreeBSD takes skill. Your average user moving from Windows to BSD will a bit alarmed when they're not greeted with the kooshy crap found with most modern Linux distros. These people are not the target of any open source BSD project that I'm aware of. Lame questions will be met with RTFM rather than some wizard popping up and holding your hand. Hand holding lessons are available, just not installed by default.
As far as performance goes, I've never seen solid proof that FreeBSD is truly lacking in performance. Any slack in performance is more than made up for in stability.
I refuse to pay any attention to the latest Star Wars crap. It's pretty lame to advertise the release of a trailer. Someone needs to stop stroking their ego.
It's hard to imagine where we'd be today if it weren't for the great minds at NASA. So many innovations have come out of NASA. Truly a great set of minds. It really sucks that so many people want to cut their budget.
Geez, I wonder what would happen if they spent their time reading through/. comments. They'd be pretty scared. I feel sorry for the dude named Anonymous Coward living in South Dakota...
With the MSDNAA almost all colleges are prodiving MS products to their CS majors, we were granted 180 licenses for XP as well as VS. License agreements are fine, they just stipulate that we do not financially benefit from the software we were given, no biggy. If your school doesn't offer free MS products for CS majors have a faculty member take a look at MSDNAA.
The problems are completely due to consumers. People got too greedy, got too used to fast connections and paying nothing. When prices were elevated to recover costs people wimped out.
That and idiots who like to complain about service being cut when they violate their TOS and run servers... idiots.
Slashdot Mirror
There's been a patch out for a couple of weeks for this issue.
I repeat classes.

Anyone know if this latest 2.0.x is supposed to have the security concerns on XP that the latest in the 1.3.x series had?

Mature use of the language does however translate to class.

NetBSD is BSD on the edge, if its got a microprocessor NetBSD runs on it.

I don't understand why you say that JKH was lost. He is still active with FreeBSD and will be for a while to come as far as I've read.
BSD rocks, enough said.
By the way it is called the Internet, not internet.

It really sucks that so many have caught the G virus. I feel sorry for them.
Great informative post. I don't see why Microsoft is expected to ship with a java implementation. Why should they be required to do so?

The source available is the source for the morpheus client. Keep checking.
This is correct, it's been verified by RMS himself several times.

Wasn't this posted before? Same content different site, just not cut up into short videos?
