The funny thing is I didn't find out that half the class got in serious shit for that until a couple years later.:)
I applaud the prof/faculty for not bugging you in the matter. Too often, people get blamed like it's their fault that someone else plagiarized their work.
A Plan for the Improvement of English Spelling
by Mark Twain
For example, in Year 1 that useless letter "c" would be dropped
to be replased either by "k" or "s", and likewise "x" would no longer
be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which "c" would be retained
would be the "ch" formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2
might reform "w" spelling, so that "which" and "one" would take the
same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish "y" replasing it with
"i" and Iear 4 might fiks the "g/j" anomali wonse and for all.
Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear
with Iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and Iears 6-12
or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants.
Bai Iear 15 or sou, it wud fainali bi posibl tu meik ius ov thi
ridandant letez "c", "y" and "x" -- bai now jast a memori in the maindz
ov ould doderez -- tu riplais "ch", "sh", and "th" rispektivli.
Fainali, xen, aafte sam 20 iers ov orxogrefkl riform, wi wud

This has been a shameless attempt at getting undeserved karma by posting other people's work.
Some of the mirrors already have the files, so make sure to use them. Also, be considerate! Try to get the patch-*.bz2 files, rather than the linux-*.tar.gz files.
Well, Perl is anyway. (Yes, I still use Perl, though I recently heard that Python has Perl-style regexp support, so I might have a look at that sometime.)
Um... Just because software exists doesn't mean people will have it installed, especially in a corporate environment. This is why we're unlikely to see raw XML web pages become standard for at least 3-5 years.
Which brings about the same problem we had in the first place: when spies@evesdroppers.gov's private key gets leaked (or cracked by a distributed effort), anyone who was recording those key transfers will immediately have access to all messages encrypted with them.
One of the big things that makes PGP secure is that there is no single point of failure. Any compromise of this compromises the security of PGP.
The other problem is with Kerberos and IPSEC, how do you plan to send all the keys for those elsewhere. I know I'd fire anyone who copied those keys anywhere.
Most Slashdotters aren't developers. They may have done some programming, but they are not doing kernel development and such. At least, that's what I gather from the relative cluelessness of many of the posts.
No kidding. I've been saying that ever since I got a PC. Ever used an Amiga? The pointer *never* froze in place or even jumped unless the machine locked hard.

You can.

Why the heck would you want to page out the page tables? Wouldn't the performance be murdered?

Yes. Nobody's saying that his code shouldn't be used, we're (or at least I am) saying that everyone should be properly credited for their work.
Linux does will because many other systems are crap, not because Linux is inherently great.
Speaking of WMA (more specifically, its competitors), what's the Vorbis encoder like lately?
Yeah, but you wouldn't use XP on a production server anyway. Right??

It only took you 20 hours to learn Dvorak? Maybe I should start trying to learn it again.
So then why was anonymous access denied on ftp.kernel.org? HUH??
Boot time. IIS "reboots" much faster under under WINE than under Windows.

Anyone know where I can get a program to manipulate images of gnus?
Lol!
What does the *BSD jail system have that a non-root chroot system doesn't? (Not a flame - just asking.)

Yeah, really. What do you mean by "set one up"?

He didn't say secrets couldn't be shared, he said that by doing so, the information will almost certainly not retain its secrecy.

Doesn't QNX have some of these features?

Yes, but when we deal with real-world concepts, we usually use limits. In this case, lim x->0 1/x == inf.
