The documentation is written under the false assumption that mod_perl as a DSO is unstable. I have been using mod_perl as a DSO for some time now and it works fine for me. I've herd of issues with it one Solaris/x86 but thats about it. IMHO all 3rd party modules should be compiled as DSOs.

So, if I understand correctly M. Perens, you tied your hand signing an NDA ? I believe it's a big mistake. Maybe you did not really have a choice but I would personnally have forfeited looking at said document instead of legally forcing myself to silence.
Okay, some of us live in the real world. Where our major goal in life is to make a living so we can support our selves, and not to spend every ounce of our ambition trying to kill Microsoft. Perhaps when you're old enough to talk to girls you'll understand.
First, if everyone prefers candidate A to candidate B, then A should be ranked higher than B. Second, voters' opinions about candidate C shouldn't affect whether A beats B--after all, if you prefer coffee to tea, finding out that hot chocolate is available shouldn't suddenly make you prefer tea to coffee.
Okay here goes.
1) Rank the candidates in the order of you preference: Nader, Gore, Bush.
2) Count all the first choice votes. Nader: 20 Bush: 42 Gore: 38.
3) Take the one with the lowest number of votes out of the election and recalculate. (Gore: 51 Bush 49).
How does this not meat the criteria? It can't be that easy I must have over looked something I'm sure.
The funny thing is most people I know do this already. They think: I really like candidate C but if A wins I'm leaving the country so I'll just vote for B because I can live with him. This system would just do it for them.

If I read stories about a person's private life, I'd much rather they beging with a line like, "Dear Penthouse, I've always read the letters in your magazine but never thought that something like that could happen to me..."
It's an old American tradition to make a fool of yourself and country while abroad. Just like when JFK delared to the people of Berlin that he was a doughnut.

You could just use an older version of XFree86. From before they dropped support for minix. What's the point of running the latest greatest Xfree on such an old system it would probably be more sutable to run the older version.
I found this howto through google. It shows you step by step how to set up OSX to use a different partition for swaping. I've never used it myself so I can't comment either way.
I know it's a tired argument but most of the news in china is made up.
I just wonder what would China have to gain by saying all their computers are 0w3d? Is it the "National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center" trying to get more funding?
This is an urban myth. Pacemakers are generally unaffected by cellphones, microwaves, etc.
Another common misconception about pacemakers this the notion that if they go out of commission the person would have an immediate heart attack.
Not true. A pacemaker on kicks in when the subjects heartrate falls out the healthy range. It spends most of it's time watching the heart and waiting.
Somebody's gotta set up the desktops and workstations, and keep them running...even if the software can handle it, hardware needs troubleshooting every now and then too
Easy you buy a support contract from sun, MS, HP, or IBM. Sysadmins will always be around just in-house sysadmins will be a thing of the past.
There should be no reason a small (< 100 employee) company would need IT.
Seriously wouldn't you rather work for sun as a support technician that Company XYZ doing sysadmin work?
When I first read the subject line I though that it was a pice about how IBM spent "1 billion dollars on linux". Anybody know what ever happened to that? Where did that money go?
This story was quite amusing though. Didn't know you could buy your own town for the bargian price of 102 million.:)
I wonder, how is that not entrapment? Not only did he not have sex with the minor, there was no minor involved at all! It was an FBI agent playing the part!
Simple really. If she asked him to meet her it's entrapment. If he asked her it's not.
Well, she *was* lying about her age. Why do you have such a hard time believing that he saw through her lie?
Because he didn't. Had he saw through her lies he'd have known that she was a cop. Besides he had child porn on his computer and he was constantly on chat boards like "dads&daughterssex", "girls&oldermen" and "girls&olderguys". So forgive me for not believing his crap.
Well the solon article said he was found guilty of possesing child porn. He aslo did not deny that he went there to try and have sex with "krisLA". He just tried to play it off like he thought she was lieing about her age. Yeah right.

Then: Infoseek
Now: Software development
This former Infoseek EVP pleaded guilty in 2000 to crossing state lines with the intent to have sex with a minor he met in an Internet chat room. To avoid jail time, he agreed to help the FBI develop software programs to catch Internet pedophiles and other sexual predators.
Does anybody else find it disturbing that not only did they (FBI) let a pedophile off the hook but they also let him design their system for catching pedophiles. Not only is he free to rape children, but because he designed the system he knows how to avoid detction also. Great job FBI I feel really safe knowing you're there to protect my children.

Apple could sell iDVD, but that looks bad when all the other iApps are free.
Not really you can buy iMovie 2 from them if it didn't come installed on your mac.
Read the bottom of the page. "Comments are owned by the Poster." Doesn't that absolve slashdot of any legal responsibility?
Probably less then the "well were not hosting any of the content our selves" excuse worked for the p2p companies.

Also the article fails to mention the advantages of running a local proxy with the mod_proxy_add_forward module.

He should be sued for killing the great infoseek, which was a great search engine too...
I agree with you there infoseek ruled. Search within a search was way too cool.
The facts are consistent with Patrick's contention that it was all a fantasy
And the kiddy porn on his computer that was just a figment of his imagination too right?
I wonder, how is that not entrapment? Not only did he not have sex with the minor, there was no minor involved at all! It was an FBI agent playing the part!
Simple really. If she asked him to meet her it's entrapment. If he asked her it's not.
Still disney want's to protect it's assets. One of theirs doing this is still going to reflect bad on them. It's called damage control.

Isn't about.com owned by the same people who own infoseek? Hmmm I wounder why they would take his side?
