  3. Cache/Buffer Fixes on Kernel 2.4.17 Out · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I don't know if anyone else is as happy as I am right now to see these fixes in the changelog...

    - Make kernel try a bit harder to shrink caches
    instead swapping out
    - Fix VM problems where cache/buffers didn't get
    freed

    The 2.4 series has been plagued by these problems, thank god that they might finally be over...

  4. Let me get this stright.... on Nasubi - The Ultimate Survivor · · Score: 2

    You have a man whose only clothes are womans underwear(That he won).

    He lives in an empty room with no human contact.

    He has millons of people watching but doesn't know it.

    He has to write around 6000 postcards a month just to TRY to stay alive.

    He has a Playstation with ONE really BAD game.

    He has a TV but cannot get a signal.

    He has a VCR and two videos, An Aerobics video and a cycling video.

    Sorry but this is about as close to hell on earth as you could come, coupled with the fact that he had to eat dog food at one point then at another they moved him but forgot to move his rice, I'm surprised this guy is still alive.
    I wouldn't be surpised if the next we hear about him will be a news article about a deranged gunman killing thousends of people on a subway yelling out "I FEAR NO HELL NOW!"

  5. Dateline: November 22nd. 2002 on AFTRA Halts Many Radio Stations' Webcasts · · Score: 1

    AFTRA today offically closed it's doors as it's membership dropped into single figures. The organisation was dumbfounded by the situation, one (now ex) staff member was quoted as saying:

    "How were we supposed to know that all media broadcasts were moving towards an online option, how were we supposed to know that we were limiting stations whose DJs fell under our jurisdiction and making them so anti-competitive as to make student and overseas radio stations who did have a global Internet prescene a more pratical alternative to advertisers".

    In this reporters opinion AFTRA were the one driving force behind the closure of may American based radio stations, unable to afford the "levys" imposed by AFTRA they were passed over as viable by Advertisers forcing their closure.

    If there is one thing we can learn from this it's that no one ogranisation should have the power to dictate the wages paid for specific aspects of a job, let the market decide.
