The library adds undelete support to applications that use the unlink system call. This library isn't just about the rm command which is what replacing rm with a perl script would do.
What about when we fought for our freedom from the British? We fought indian style and they were appaled that we wouldn't face them in straight lines and bright colors.
Not to disagree but to add a little more.
The Americans also took part in terrorist attacks on the British, and no not just in the US. There were ships that came over and performed terrorist attacks on British soil. John Paul Jones was the captain of the ship that took part in the most famous attack and if you know your history he is said to be the Father of the US Navy. Kind of a hero.
All countries have performed terrorist attacks at some point it is all a point of view thing.
Well the BBC seem to think that the disposible phone will turn up with the next month or so. Hop-on's web site has more info and they seem to imply that disposible mobiles are already available. Of course slashdot has gone down this route many times. This links to a few of them.
That would be Joanna Lumley.

£415 a month in Cambridge? Were you sharing or going through a housing association? That's pretty cheap for round that way.
Neither it was just a dump of a one bedroom flat on the outsides of the city centre. It was about 10 minutes by car from where I was working at the time.
The cheapest place I've found in the entire country is Lincolnshire. You can get a 2/3 bedroom house 15 miles outside of Lincoln for about £250/£300 a month. Ridiculously cheap, and low crime. Of course, no jobs (or broadband), but hey!
It is about the same cost for a house (£240 a month) for a 2 bedroom place in Clayton-le-Moors (I grow up there and the house I'm thinking of is on the main village road it was up for rent a month or so ago, haven't been there since), village near Blackburn/Preston/Manchester (okay manchester maybe be stretching it a little). There is ADSL and some jobs but you said that you telecommute didn't you, crime is a bit of a problem there. Burnley is close so there can be some race issues.
Unfortunetly the place that are the cheapest to live are noramlly the places that you don't want to live due to issues such as schools, jobs etc.
What's your area of Scotland like? I've never really considered Scotland before for the stupid fact that I don't like the accent;-)
You get used to the accent surprisingly fast.
I'm about 15 miles from St Andrews and 40 Miles from Edinburgh. I commute to St Andrews most days via contry roads (read no traffic). It is a nice place but it is doubtful that there will ever be ADSL here, so I'm stuck with a modem when I'm at home
Lancaster is pretty good and cheap; got broadband too. There is little crime and I've always felt safe in the area.

In the UK, the average rent on a small 1 bedroom place is about £600 ($860) in most places, even in the quiet and jobless South West.
I think you'll find that is very much dependant on where you live. Recently I've lived in Cambridge, south east England (one bedroom flat was £415 a month), Lancaster, north west England (Two bedroom house was £380) and I'm currently living in Cellardyke, west Scotland (3 bedroom house for £390). You have to go somewhere pretty expensive to have to pay £600 a month for a one bedroom flat.
Now, take a poor place in the UK. Crime (primarily street assault) is a major problem in the UK nowadays
Again I'd say that depends on where you live. I've lived in a couple of places where I'd say that being out late at night was a bad idea but then again I've lived places where it doesn't make a difference.
There are also starter type homes where several people club together and rent rooms from a larger house. I've known many people to do this, you have to live with other people until you can afford a place by yourself. From what I remember they are about £200-£300 a month.
don't we want to live in a place that speaks English?;-)
We already have those, well at least on the microsocpic level. Physics type people at St Andrews university are using lasers to move atoms around more infor here. Also a seach for tractor beam and St Andrews will bring up a load more links.
I wrote my MSc project (Comp Sci CSCW thing in case your interested) and did the write up on a 400 Mhz celeron. I've only recently upgraded to a 1800+ Althon XP and the only difference that I have seen is that the compiles are slightly faster and that Quake 3 runs faster. I've been writing up my PhD thesis (Again a CSCW thing but leaning slight towards the QoS side of things) on both the 400Mhz Celeron and the 1800+ Althon XP and I can honestly say that I couldn't tell the difference between the two of them when doing the write up and the odd bit of stats work. In fact the only reason I upgraded was because I wanted to play Quake 3 et al with a decent framerate and with nice graphics, it was either one or the other with the Celeron.
"British Government has decided that all TVs will have to switch over to digital by 2010"
Hmmmm...
The plan being to license the space that is used by terestial TV broadcast to mobile phone companies(and others) for use with new digital services including not only voice but data services. I doubt the mobile phone companies will be interested though since they have been stuck with a rather large bill for the 3G licenses which no customers seem intested in using.
We basically came to the conclusion that all college professors should write their textbooks.
How about just producing notes for the class? I've had experience of books that were just written for the course and to be honest they were pretty awful. The best way I've seen of doing it is producing notes from the lecture slides that were given. This way the notes tie in with the lectures.
Mandrake is designed as a Windows XP with Linux kernel (and solidity).
Still not quite as good an install as Win XP. Windows XP install first time with no problems on my system whereas Mandrake (and RedHat btw) both refuse using the default boot kernels. Mandrake at least lets me use a different kernel from the second disk to boot (which after a bit of messing boots).
From what I've seen neither Mandrake or RedHat can fully replace Windows on the desktop just yet. Mainly due to problems of installation and lack of MS Office. OpenOffice etc are good but don't handle MS Office documents correctly. Also if you need extra help with writting documents (for exmaple if you are dyslexic) the only option is MS Word which none of the other programs have the support for the required software.

Yes that is why I'd never move to the US
But can it run linux?
Perhaps because they are charging $10 more than other ISPs so people are using the other ISPs.

None but all the tools that I have found and that actually seem useful are plugins to MS Word.

"NIC costs $120 list price, and the embedded firewall is another $50 for each client. The policy server costs $1000."
Looks a little pricey at the moment as well. How many firewalls do you need? One per desktop or one per gateway?
