We should focus more on password protected storage with Novell or NFS mounts. If a student could log in on any machine on campus, would he or she need a floppy as storage?
UN*Xes are designed for this. I never see anybody using removable media on the Sparcs in the Comp. Sci. lab here. The windows machines in the same lab, however, have no NFS mounts. You can't store anything locally, so unreliable removable media is forced by default.
Offer more centralized storage solutions and make sure the students know about them, then they'll get rid of the floppies.

Some facts about the GPL.
The GNU folks don't care what you use their software for. In fact, in using GPLed software you don't have to agree with anything.
Then there's copying. Since GPLed software is copyrighted, there is no other way to distribute it legally other than agreeing to the license. The agreement is so that you who are giving the the software to someone, give the recipient the same rights to use and give the software to someone else.
I have a friend that had gone all cellular. No phone lines at home. He's using digital satellite. He can't buy pay-per-view movies because the thing wants a phone line to pay for them. It's sad that TiVo and satellite receivers are so high-tech, yet depend on such low-tech stuff.
As far as I can tell it's not only illegal to wear it. It's illegal to own it. It's illegal to tell us you have it (which is just a method of linking to it). It's illegal for Slashdot to allow you to post your comment, since ultimately their web site is saying that one way to find DeCSS is on your shirt.
Geek hacks TiVo, adds features, makes it better, makes it GPL. TiVo likes mods, adds them to next version, everybody benefits.
I'm waiting for my RAIDed, mp3 playing, networkable, quake playing TiVo. Seeya WebTV!
I've got a Logitech optical. Works with the red light and all just like the Microsoft. Fewer buttons though...but 3 and a wheel is all i need. Works like a dream in X.
Sure squatting is a problem for.coms. But it's much less of a problem with the the other already-existing TLDs,.net, and.org, and plenty of non-US domains. I landed bourne.sh with no problem!
Simply put,.com is the name to have if you're a business. Reselling something else isn't nearly as marketable.
That's right. I checked my age in the GnomeICU profile right after posting the story and it was correct! Does anybody know of a bug in GnomeICU that prevents it from uploading ages correctly?
Being unfortunate enough not to be the server admin, the server I use is indeed running Windows. I managed to get MySQL on it and I am grateful that a Windows version does exist.
According to the MySQL press release, "One of the biggest news is that the Windows version of MySQL is now also distributed under the GPL license." So can I get those 200 Euros reimbursed?:-)
He says the synthetic "designer bacteria" could have positive applications. Scientists could learn how to produce customised genes that could help build organisms for eating radioactive waste or cleaning up after oil spills, for example.
So how does eating radioactive waste make it any less radioactive? This is one powerful bacteria that can erase decaying atoms.
Two days ago, I recieved a total of 3 AOL CDs in the mail. Before microwaving them, I noticed that AOL 4.0 "Includes Microsoft Internet Explorer". AOL's web site says the same thing!
Can't blame him for leaving!

I think computers might be the least of our concerns on this day.:)
However, Pungenday, Discord 70, YOLD 3167 doesn't sound so menacing.
hmm...come to think of it, i'll be 23 years old for only the first 23 days of the year 2000.
Linux could already do this via IP Masquerade. (Yes, it not only works for LANs but over PPP too.)
The only problem with this is, of course, you need the omnipotent root to set it up. With SLiRP, you don't, which IMO the only thing that makes it beneficial compared to IP Masq.
WML is an open source UNIX-only website generator. Rather than a WYSIWYG approach, WML uses a 9-pass filter on ordinary text files. This lets you do things like make your own tags and use embedded perl, which is later expanded into HTML. One of the best features is the use of header files. Then you can use nice things like Makefiles. I do believe Debian uses this on their site. I'm currently switching my site to WML from Net Objects Fusion, another nifty Windows and Mac WYSIWYG site builder, but weak and slow with really big sites.

How can there be a wrong button when there's only one of them on the mouse? ;)

If it wasn't illegal, they wouldn't be criminals.
