I thought the Feds a few years back repealed the federal speed limits. That's how we got numbers like 60, 70, and 75 that were not in the Federal rules, and Montana's for a time "Reasonable and prudent" limit. Speed limits are now up to the states alone.
But many people (and some distros *coughMandrake* (as of 9.0 at least) ) turn it back on so older, poorly written applications will still work. The users apparently see the cost of rewriting their apps as being greater than becoming a spam bot, while the distros want to maintain compatibility to keep said users happy, all at the price of security.
Or so it appears on the surface. Often, game engines are built upon and reused, with new and shiny graphics set applied to make it look more new than it is underneath. This especially applies to sequels. It is a huge money and time saver for developers to reuse code rather than do everything from scratch.
Also, in theory, it makes upgrading easier, especiallly if there is a flaw or bug fix or some other _minor_ change in the library. Just drop in the library, and no need to recompile everything. In practice though, this does occasionally break stuff. (*cough glibc*)
At a mall near me, some really massive display once had the NT 4 "Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to log on" screen saver running on it constantly. They since took the display out though.
And new.net even works on *nix! Installation instructions (from http://www.new.net/download/instructions_unix.tp):
Edit the following file:/etc/resolv.conf.
In this file, look for the line that starts with "search," and add "new.net" to the end of the line. Thus if the resolv.conf file currently reads like this:
search example.com nameserver 1.2.3.4
You should change it, so that it now reads:
search example.com new.net nameserver 1.2.3.4
If there is no "search" line in the file, but there is a "domain" line, then replace "domain" with "search" and then add the new.net as above.
Your Linux/Unix machine should now resolve and enable your web browser to see the new domains.
Though I don't think that 1.2.3.4 is really a nameserver though.
As such it discourages spending, which in these economic times is a very Bad Thing(TM). That's a thing I've had against sales taxes ever since econ class in high school.
Well a while back, Ballmer and Jobs had their ballots stuffed in favor of Jobs by AppleScript kiddies.
I'm still curious though of what the non-techie community thinks of Darl.
Putting the journal on a ramdisk defeats the purpose of having it. In an shutdown, the journal disappears, so most of the disadvantages of ext2 return (long fsck, etc.). If speed is that critical, use ext2 and save RAM.
Well the way I see it, if it's standards-compliant, it'll probably work in IE. And if not, it's because of a bug, and bugs are their problem, not mine.
Slashdot Mirror
In short, SMB was borrowed from IBM. Here (near the top of the page) is a brief history.
And I'm surprised no kiddiots came up with UnixWarez yet.
But earlier this year, the US Supreme Court ruled unconstitutional laws on sex positions and such. Something about privacy in one's own bedroom...

That should not be too necessary now, since the patent on GIFs has expired (in the US).
I thought it was "100 billion dollars".

I'll add these to my hosts file and point them to 0.0.0.0, and when I go to work, they'll go in the DNS server there as 0.0.0.0 .

Also, if one can open the case, many boards have a jumper to reset the BIOS passwords.

Where do we vote for our old buddy Darl (or against as the case may be)?
No free linux edition of Maya, you insensitve clod!
We should be able to filter it just like the RFC 3514 Evil Bit (TM).
Because they want to be more like Windows. It has the shell, and now IIS (in Win2003) right in kernel space.
Well they wanted to keep the version numbers mostly the same as the "unstable" consumer versions of Windows (3.1, 95/4.0).

Isn't Galeon just a rebranded Mozilla anyway?

Also, IP is loaded terminology according to RMS.
