  1. Re:Most Secure Language on BugTraq's Elias Levy Talks Security · · Score: 1

    As far as I know one of the intents when designing C was to make a language that doesn't forbid you doing anything, eg no internal checking and bla-bla-bla, thus not sacrificing performance btw the /. effect sucks - Warning: Too many connections in /home/underlinux/htdocs/mainfile.php on line 17 Unable to select database

  2. Re:Just a few lame personal experience stories on The Joys Of Losing Your Cooling Device · · Score: 1

    I have an Intel 486/33 without any kind of fan or heatsink. And I've never had any troubles with it (the record is 54 days uptime without a UPS). Also my younger brother used to play Fifa'99 6 hours on a Celeron/400 with a dead fan without locking up even once

  3. Re:Old PC on Choosing a Router/Firewall for the Home LAN · · Score: 1

    Surely it's a problem with your cables because on my home lan using an old 486/33 8MB/ 120 HDD and FreeBSD-3-STABLE with one NE2000 and one digital DE205 card I don't have any problems with speeds up to 350 KBytes/s. I'd have put FreeBSD-4-STABLE but unfortunately it seems that DE205 won't be supported any longer.

  4. The Picture... on Our New Pearl Harbor · · Score: 1

    I think that the real meaning of this could be represented by one picture - the tiny statue of libery in the foreground and the huge clouds scorching the sky in the foreground. Get the symbolism - how little is everything civilized in the face of horror and destruction
