  1. Re:You can take away my dash . . . on A Sysadmin's Worst Halloween Fears · · Score: 2

    i had the problem of converting over to not using the dash. for the longest time, i would type ps -aux and get ps griping at me... i eventually converted, but now when i'm at school and try to do a 'ps aux' on IRIX, it has _no_ idea what it is.

    btw, 'ps aux' makes me feel like i'm sending it to my mouse also :)

  2. no OS at all on Major PC Makers to Ship PCs Sans Windows · · Score: 1

    last week i was pricing laptops. So i went to Dell's website and priced an Inspiron. During the configuration, i was presented with this:

    Operating System:
    Windows 95
    Windows 98 SE
    No Operating System

    but the thing is, you do not get a subtract on cost if you do not choose Win9x. so it seems that you are paying for it regardless if you choose to receive it.

  3. good. on The Who's Reunion Concert to be Webcast Live! · · Score: 1

    i'm happy for CmdrTaco, it is always great for your fav band to get back together. me, i'm waiting for SoundGarden to do it. It's unlikely anytime soon, but i can always dream. BTW, Chris Cornell's new solo album is great. Everyone should go out and get it. It's different but none the less good.

  4. using BSD on BSD: "The Net's stealth operating system" · · Score: 1

    at my job, we have decided to move our rh5.1 webserver over to openBSD...simply because of what we have seen. The rh5.1 system is flawless, but sometimes chokes up under heavy loads...personally i love linux, but i think this was a good move for the company.

  5. I can feel it already on Slashdot Acquired by Andover.net · · Score: 1

    While posting this reply, I could already feel the need for more servers. Not that the 9 times i received, 'Could not connect to remote server' had to do anything with it :)

    While everyone else bitches, i just want to say Congratulations!! I beleive this is a move truly for the better for /. If all the ACs honestly believe that this is a bad move for /. , then there must be something wrong with all of them. Like Hemos has said numerous times, they keep control of the site no matter who owns it/sells it, etc. What does that mean? A better slashdot because Taco and Hemos have more time--and it will be faster!

  6. Re:SuSE on SuSE larger than RedHat · · Score: 1

    i've been using RedHat since 4.2. when 6.0 came out, i just couldn't fork over the $70 like most people. I was kinda getting tired of the fact that RH seemed to be getting like M$, so i tried SuSE.
    I LOVE IT! 6.1 is great: easy to configure, faster, more stable, etc. i like YaST, and SaX is MUCH better than Xconfigurator.

    the day i tried to live, i blew up the outsied world...
