I live in California, and I have to pay deposits on all beverages. Nobody really knows how to get the deposits back, though. Apparently you have to actually take the bottles back to the recycling center, which for me is 20 miles away. So it's basically the same thing.
I'm just amazed that somebody has the time to waste posting about *BSD is dying. Who cares? FreeBSD works for me; it's still being developed; it doesn't make any difference to me how many people use it (you can't get supported binaries for much anything outside the ports tree anyways). When you think about it, it's actually kind of funny in a pathetic way that we (ie. users of the internet) have a whole website up (bsd.slashdot.org) where 1/4 of the posts are just trolls who are incapable of contributing to the conversations. It's sort of like the class clown in elementary school.
Wine officially supports Linux, FreeBSD 4.x/5, NetBSD, and Solaris x86.
To get it to compile on FreeBSD, you have to comment out the FPU_HACK in dlls/ddraw/hal.c and uncomment an #include .
This is why we need linux on the desktop now. With the new 2.5 kernel under development, linux will soon be poised to take over the desktop computer world and prevent censorship with its open-source power. We need to send the world a message that we will not stand for the censorship imposed by governments controlled by proprietary software companies. Linux and GNU software is an indispensable ally in preventing censorship and blocked sites. We of the free world should be the first to implement an operating system which will have no feature allowing this type of evil censorship. Die propietary software die!
PHP is really designed for use as a web server module. One consequence of this is its method of importing dynamic modules: they're all loaded when php is invoked. This saves a lot of time when it's running as part of a web server and it doesn't incur startup penalty. However, this hurts when it's a standalone application.
The language has strange quirks; code like
$number = 20;
$copy = $nunber;
will actually assign the value 0 to $copy ($nunber is undefined, so it gets 0 by default). It does raise an E_NOTICE, but nobody really has error reporting for those turned on. While implicit definition of variables like that is nice sometimes in I-have-to-put-up-this-voting-booth-for-dorm-gov-in -less-than-2-minutes style scripts, it really doesn't work in large programs where it's easier to make mistakes and harder to catch them.
Even the braces, as great as they are embedded in a web page, really get annoying in anything not containing a fair amount of html code.
It seems that they accept anything Netscape with "Mozilla 4.6" or above. If it's Mozilla 4.0 compatible, it must be MSIE 4.0 or above. My Konqueror string says "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror)", so that doesn't work, but if you set it to "Mozilla/4.7 (compatible; Konqueror)", that will work. Funny how Mozilla/4.7 is more compliant than Mozilla/5.0.

Maybe someday I'll be able to put random Linux/ISP disks on my wall along with the AOL CDs.
Debian/w32 where are you?
Has anybody tried installing this? I'd be interested to know what they've changed from FreeBSD (apart from the installation sequence).

Gnucleus only works with Visual Studio. It is specifically designed with Visual Studio-specific tools and will not work with gcc.
This person seems to resemble the posts of BSD is dying, so before you flame the troll, check out the history.
The source that Morpheus distributes will not build with Visual Studio. They don't bother to distribute the icon files or a .mak file.
