Well, if you are to fetch a list of urls with more than 255 characters in the filename, you can't use wget -i long-urls.txt. You have to create a script and use a -O option in it.
import os b = 1 for a in file('long-urls.txt').readlines(): os.system('wget -O' + b + ' ' + a) b += 1
Would Indonesia's Ministry of Research & Techonology be able to enforce this task of replacing every desktop in all of the government offices with this JDS? Any goals? I don't buy vague press announcement. I really like to see results.
I really like Mozilla Firefox (way to go Firefox developers) but swordboy has a point in there.
Average users are used to IE whether it is actually the worst browser around. Users don't care (don't know) about tabbed browsing, pop-up blocking, and other nifty features.
Mozilla developers should follow what Microsoft Office did in the old days when WordPerfect/ Lotus Suite ruled the office world. Mozilla should provide IE compatible mode for new users and introduce features as they become accustomed to the new browser.
I've a Compaq Presario 700, bought 2 years ago. The cdrom goes loony 6 months ago (wouldn't spin right alias broken).
I bring it to a HP Authorized Service Center in Bandung (Harrisma Inc.) and I waited for a whole without a sure answer about the laptop. Then I got fed up and took it back from them and still got charged (fsck them).
I think my bad experience represents many laptop owners in Indonesia. Many of the laptop manufacturers don't have service centres, they instead appoint local companies as authorized service centres.
Anyway, why is it called service centres? They usually replace the parts, not doing any repairs/services to the broken parts.
So I conclude that it's very expensive to have a laptop in Indonesia. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Apparently the poster of this topic is fascinated by the fight between python & alligator as seen in a previous slashdot posting. :)
