In Germany the service of gasoline pumping is outlawed because of the health issue.
Citation please. I live in Germany and Shell is actually offering the service of gasoline pumping in some stations I know. So you're saying what they do is illegal?
In particular in Belgium, there are just a few ISP's that do not have any capping.
That might be true for Belgium, but in Germany it's actually the opposite case. Basically every decent ISP offers unlimited connections, often they don't even have a capped line. Maybe it's because cable providers for whom the internet might hurt TV products only have a small market share. The by far biggest share of the market goes to phone companies with DSL who actually try to enter the TV market with IPTV. Introducing caps would just hurt their own IPTV products, maybe that's why by now I haven't seen any big ISP trying to introduce caps by default.
If you actually want a capped connection, you can find it (and it's really cheap), but not many people use these.
According to one of DJB's slides it might happen this month that qmail will be placed into public domain. I hope this will become true as it might help qmail to get rid of its obsolescence.
It's not the same solution because lguest and KVM have different goals. While KVM is trying to use as much hardware virtualization support as possible to gain full speed, lguest is not using these functions to run on more hardware. XEN tries to do everything and is thus a bit more bloated, but also with more functionality. Choice is good, just take the solution which fits your requirements best.
It's proprietary software. A better question is "Why doesn't Intel dedicate engineers to optimizing gcc's code generation for ia32 and ia64?". This would be a much more useful contribution.
Intel wants to sell it's own compiler, so why should they try to optimize gcc and make their own compiler useless?
Fry: Very impressive. Back in the 20th Century we had no idea there was a university on Mars.
Prof.: Well, in those days Mars was just a dreary, uninhabitable wasteland, much like Utah. But unlike Utah it was eventually made livable when the University was founded in 2636.

Perhaps they are trying to port it to HURD and will release Duke Nukem Forever together with the HURD release.

Maybe the picture lies, but the thing that strikes me as strange is all of those coins seem to be about the exact same size.
The sizes are different.
The coins of the different countries have different pictures on their back. Follow this link for an overview of the back sides of the euro coins.
> What is the most stable of the latest kernels?
IMO the most stable kernel release is 2.2.20. Some people say that 2.4 is still testing, not stable.
