    Or make beer with the reclaimed water, then after you're done, deposit the processed beer into your furnace, car's gas tank, etc. I'm going to the bar to get pissed, and so's my car!

    The only thing beter would be to make everything run on alcohol right from the go, but for totally selfish reasons.

    installpkg works just fine for binaries for me. But if I want to remove a lot of the cruft from my machine, GnuCash just won't work. It is a spaghetti install of old libraries, most of which I don't want on my system.

    Yeah, Debian would solve one problem, it wouldn't solve them all. And I don't consider it fucking around. I learned more about how my system operates in that one episode than I did in months of fucking around.

    That means the fate of the world rests on Canada and our Popeye-looking head-of-state.

    Yeah, but face it, Debian should be the last flavor that would complain about dependancies.

    I installed on slackware, compiled from source, found out what was missing from the configure script, compiled that from source, installed Gnome 1.4, re-installed Gnome 2, configured gnucash, compiled, then renamed some libraries, ldconfig'd and was running GnuCash just in time to switch over to KDE 3.1, where I'm looking for a good native money manager.

    Maybe by the time I find one or write one, I'll have money to manage :)

    Gnucash is a good program, but you better know how to use your ldd command to get the bastard installed. It relies on so many libraries that a newbie would get fed up with it and run quicken.

    Great program when running, but horrible to get it there.

    Anytime you mention Bin Laden, Saddaam Hussein, Allah, or use the phrases "Death to the Infidels", "Dirty Bomb", "Jihad", "GEORGE BUSH SHOULD DIEt", the feds get their knickers in a twist and start scouring the net for any kind of information that can be traced back to you, even if you think the president is getting a little chubby.

    He's being watched, so am I, and so are you for being part of this thread. The FBI has an inch thick file on Rob Malda, and probably a whole drawer dedicated my innane ramblings.

    Oh well, at least somebody finds me interesting, and I'm no longer paranoid for thinking my telephones have been tapped.

    Indignant righetousness doesn't mean as much as it used to.

    Tom Corbett? Man that's going back! (If you /.'ers just said WTF, click HERE)
    I'm not sure if my life is worth setting, but the point is, as a massive show of force, the U.S. sent everything they had available to 'liberate' Iraq, which, after they dropped more than the required amount of very expensive bombs in their shock and awe campaign, they had way too many troops running around that they had to feed, transport, and supervise.
