Red Hat does not take care of dependencies for you at all, you have to compile it and then it comes up with a compile error because you don't have some header file, but which package contains that? who knows!?
Debian is much better, but installation from source is not quite as trivial as with BSD ports.
How does that work? The sites you allow information can just copy your personal information ("keep it locally for convenience") and they have it forever.
It's scope is more than before. This will be added to further bills with "limited scope" ultimately resulting in far greater scope. Any additional destruction of liberty, however small, is equal indication of the terrorist's victories.
This actually makes me more sad than learning of the news at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and in Pennsylvania. The realization that the terrorists have not simply attacked and been repelled, but that they have come closer to winning, and in doing so limiting the liberty of millions, and billions in the future, saddens me more.
Mozilla is extremely fast in actually loading pages, although not in loading the program, or in creating new windows. Mozilla is very stable, it hasn't crashed for me, where Netscape would crash if I opened more than 4 windows, and where IE would crash just...for no reason at all.
It's very easy to patch security holes. In fact, in some distributions of Linux, it's as easy as apt-get update && apt-get upgrade It is Microsoft's security hole. There was a security hole in Microsoft IIS, that's Microsoft's security hole. Now, after they released the patch, it was the stupidity of the Windows sysadmins that allowed the propagation of the Code Red worms.
uhm, that's really not complicated at all, and it stresses the fact that this is not some wacko living in a gutter; it's someone who did something that was legal yesterday who is taken away from his family.
Right, so in order to help newbies transition to the Unix world, they should be told to use tools that are meant to mimic DOS rather than the simple Unix tools meant to do the job?
You list "never completed" as an open-source minus. In fact, this is an open-source plus. Packages are always being improved, and just because the project doesn't end ("never completed") doesn't mean that there isn't a nice functional application you can use.
Under closed-source plusses, you list "meets deadlines" and yet most of the time these products don't meet deadlines.
So you propose that all news sources not cover any topic that's already been covered by another news source? Now, I would have prefered to have both news items, but the point is that Slashdot didn't cover a topic that many people find important.
I don't remember anyone doing that. Everyone I know just said this is complete crap and didn't see it again.
Anyway, Slashdot isn't complete crap (that's just where it's headed). Just because people complain doesn't mean they completely dislike the site. They just want to stop the continuing increase of crap on the site and improve the site. It's stupid to just say "oh, don't ever complain, you should leave instead of complain, don't ever ask for improvement". Nothing is perfect, there's always something wrong with everything, if everyone just abandoned various things instead of asking for improvement, the world would just fall apart.
People will buy new systems (from their "old" 400MHz machines with 64MB of RAM and whatnot) because, in fact, more is required to run XP well, and such is the case with all new Windows releases.
What are you talking about? How hard is "apt-get install " A person does not have to "acquire, decompress, compile, and install Linux applications", anything necessary can be done for you.
Thinking we were created by intelligent aliens and not by some omnipotent, omnibenevolent and omniscient being! Someone should lock them up for their heresy!
Actually, the school is legally responsible for the students during school hours. The school is acting in loco parentis, and they are the ones supposed to make sure the kids aren't getting into trouble. Monitoring the every action of your children is not a basic part of good parenting any more than the government watching every action of its citizens is a basic part of good government.
It seems to me that you are against the federally mandated censorware in schools. They block legitimate sites, and do not block some extremely vulgar and profane sites, which are supposed to be blocked. I think that there would be wide opposition to this, but I think that many people assume that the censorware that is used actually works.
The fact is that they're not building better censorware. They're implementing the current, faulty, censorware, and making no efforts to implement legitimately working censorware; aren't you opposed to that?

These things aren't installed by default, whereas Windows NT has other services installed by default.

Right, and allowing your machine to attack other machines is downright KIND!
It's not a troll, it's only supposed to be slightly amusing.
Checking my web logs, I only see 1 Code Red IIs. Thankfully, running IIS, all my servers do is say "huh?" and log it.
Please explain what these interoperability problems are. I would like to hear more about them.
That's not the point. I mean, if you want to nitpick, you could say it's not "Ca Li Ma" it's
Ca
Li
Ma
but not, the dashes are just to indicate association between the separate parts.
uhm, that's really not complicated at all, and it stresses the fact that this is not some wacko living in a gutter; it's someone who did something that was legal yesterday who is taken away from his family.
The ship is Ca-Li-Ma btw.

Actually, the article doesn't say anything to this effect.
Thinking we were created by intelligent aliens and not by some omnipotent, omnibenevolent and omniscient being! Someone should lock them up for their heresy!
Where does it say this? All the article says is that they're using Maori words and oral stories, it doesn't say they're trademarking anything.
