It's a sign that Network "Solutions" won't be fucking it up anymore. Which is to say, a good sign!
"The business of America is business."
--Calvin Coolidge, Thirtieth President, 1923-1929
... of course, right after his terms were up, the business of America was more along the lines of eating shoe lint and wallpapering the outhouse with stock certificates.
Ah, no. DOS-type partitions are the standard 4-primary, or less than 4 primary plus one or more "extended" partitions with "logical drives" (paritions) in them. These partitions may be marked as being MSDOS, NTFS, QNX or whatever. But they are still DOS-style partitions. I.e., what you get by partitioning your disk with DOS fdisk.
In contrast, you can have BSD-style disk slices or some other partitioning scheme that bears no relation to what DOS uses.
Sounds good to me. Perhaps the slash code could, minimally, search slashdot stories for links that are in the current item, in order to display possible duplicate stories for the editors.
The term "Open Monopoly" is an oxymoron. You have been trolled!
mono- \Mon"o-\, Mon- \Mon-\ [Gr. ?.] A prefix signifying one, single, alone;
monopoly (m-np-l)
n. pl. monopolies
Exclusive control by one group of the means of producing or selling a commodity or service: "Monopoly frequently... arises from government support or from collusive agreements among individuals" (Milton Friedman).
Law. A right granted by a government giving exclusive control over a specified commercial activity to a single party.
A company or group having exclusive control over a commercial activity. A commodity or service so controlled.
Exclusive possession or control: arrogantly claims to have a monopoly on the truth.
Something that is exclusively possessed or controlled: showed that scientific achievement is not a male monopoly.
I know he was quoting government officials. But the tone of that article -- the part that he wrote -- seemed to agree. His other article was pretty good, though.
We should look beyond the Bill of Rights to the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which says that all people, everywhere in the world, are entitled to work and decent wages, to holidays and vacations, to food and clothing and housing and medical care, to education, to child care and maternal care.
Funny how the author of the ThirdWorldTravler article "the Bill of Rights" has the opinion that "they are only Amendments." And seems to also think that people have a right, an entitlement, to the product of other people's labor. Freedom is Slavery! Slavery is Freedom!
Hmm... "shifty, closed-minded weasel without principles" does describe at least some of our Honorable Representatives... and, of course, Hilary Rosen, Jackie "The Fish" Valenti, and Ted Turner.
Evolution will not load images in HTML email unless you want for it to load them. If it doesn't load the externally-referenced files, then there are no "free hits on spammer's web pages." You can set it to load all images, never load images except by request, or to load images if the sender is in your address book.
"Free ISP Application"
.. um, my ethernet card and the linux kernel. I have Road Runner. Mandrake 8.1 even asks if you're using modem, LAN, cable, DSL, etc. when you install it.
"free web based mail application which also lets you use client based access like Outlook Express and Hotmail"
Who cares? Really? Is integration between Lookout Express and Hotmail a compeeling reason to buy windows? Use Yahoo mail. Use Mozilla Mail/News.
"AIM program for linux"
There are more IM programs for Linux than for Windows. I am using GnomeICU and Gabber, which are ICQ, GAIM, and Jabber clients.
... so you can't figure out how to get your modem to dial your ISP, or check your mail or whatever, but you can set up Win2k in VMWare on Linux? Huh?
The current 'system' results in lost patches, random accidental additions cough*JFFS*cough, little/no tracking of changes, difficulty getting/making patches among various versions, etc.

DOS-type partitions are the most common on PCs, the most expected, and the easiest to deal with.
Ext3 is basically ext2 with journalling. It performs better than Ext2, though. In a pinch you can always mount it as ext2.
You're not running anything exotic. Stick with the standards.

Nice work to those of you who caught it.
... let us see and vote on the submission queue and we will catch it even earlier next time.
"Foundation for the Law of Time." Right. Galactic Tones and Solar Seals. Sheesh. Where's the Golden Solar Kool-Aid?
but with VGA, NTSC, optional remote control, PCI slot, USB, etc.
So, I can use this instead of an audiotron, and spend about the same money, but get more.
I could even make it a games machine for my younguns!

I understand his agreement with the facts of our current government, but he seemed to also agree with the sentiment somewhat.
Even that old crone Ayn Rand stood firmly behind peoples' right to collectively bargain -- i.e., form unions.
Excuse me? Yeah, I guess that second hand smoke only hurts the person smoking.
There's a difference between outlawing smoking and prohibiting it in public areas.

Great article.
I'm looking at setting up a similar type of system using postgres, apache, mod_python, and XSLT. Has anyone else ventured down a similar path?

Click "install." By default, you see only updates in RC.
What kind of crappy processors do your Suns have, anyway? I don't see anything like the CPU usage you're complaining about.
"QT Developer's License"
Plus, GTK is more motify.
They have to ship upgrades to keep the cash coming in. They can't ship Gnome 2.0 because it's not ready.
No story here.
That sounds REALLY COOL! I hope they actually finish it.

So? It's a record of the past. Big deal. It's not like Linus and Alan use CVS to actually develop the kernel.
Yes! Please! CVS!
CVS NOW!

Please, please, CVS, please!
