Disenfranchising refers to the removal of the ability to vote from a person or group of people.
An example of intentional, legal disenfranchisement of individuals is how some U.S. states deny the ability to vote to a convicted felon. Specifically, 13 states disenfranchise all convicted felons for life; Texas bars ex-felons from voting until two years after they are released from custody, and two other states (Arizona and Maryland) permanently disenfranchise two-time convicted felons. In addition to these 16 states, 13 others also ban persons who are on probation for a felony but were not sentenced to prison time from the suffrage, and these plus three more states (or 32 in all) disqualify those on parole from voting. Four states -- Maine, Massachusetts, Utah and Vermont -- actually allow prisoners to vote while in custody, and 14 exclude only persons who are presently serving time in a state prison. Some states treat a dishonorable discharge from any of the armed forces as the equivalent of a felony conviction.
I've always be told that in C, free() doesn't (usually) return the memory to the operating system. The memory is only available to other programs after the program exits.
As a result of this, most daemons will re-exec themselves to free up memory for the rest of the system.
At least, that's what I've always heard. Maybe newer versions of the linux kernel are much smarter...
1 -- LISP is simple and elegant. LISP has a pure functional design, without any of that procedural/imperative/OO junk that people use to actually write software that does stuff. LISPs purity and simplicity keep it in the lab, where languages belong.
I'm not a lisp programmer, but...
Lisp is not purely functional. Prodecural/imperative programming is possible.
In addition, Common Lisp has objects and object oriented programming. Lisp isn't a pure language.:)
Other than that, I'd mod you +1 Funny if I had mod points.
Which is why I'm agnostic. I also think a complex system where life arises from chaos without aid is more fitting of an all-powerful being than just, like, building fish. But that's just me.
It is not that it is a perfect theory; it is that it is the *best* theory. Same is true for physics, geology, astronomy, etc.
The best current theory *is* the truth, until a better theory is found. Or, as close to the truth as human minds have yet been able to see.
Well, most auth systems won't let you retry very rapidly, and most I am aware of balk after more than 4-8 failed login attempts from the same place / for the same user.
6553600000000 is a pretty large number, too. For example, even if the system allows one try per second (and that is *VERY* generous, and assuming the machine is on a fast connection, too), it would take 207,675 years to try every possibly combination.
It doesn't matter how many machines *you* have, as the system doing the authentication controls how often you're allowed to try.
LOL, I hope that is a joke. I mean, a great deal of UNIX programs use fork().... and UNIX has had named pipes before Windows even existed, man mkfifo.
I won't go into the horror stories regarding Microsoft's win32 executable format. Of course, ELF shared objects don't have namespaces for *C* code, because C does not have namespaces. C++ does, though.
There's also SVK, which is like decentralized Subversion.

Javascript does not have the Java security model.
Java does suck, but for other reasons...
Solution: Download CPANPLUS, use it to install whatever you need, with dependencies.
usage:
# cpanp
CPAN Terminal> i Module::Name
Done.
I have CPANPLUS download from HTTP mirrors because it seems faster, so I really don't see why you'd ever have to directly download something.

oh, it's easy. music player daemon + mpc + cronjob.
Is Lenin's music in the public domain in Russia, too?

Apache is #1 webserver. Why is it not attacked as often as IIS?
it's dark because we can't see it, not because it is anti- anything.
d) PROFIT!!

True enough. I have a lack of knowing of if I have a religion or not, and I'm agnostic.

I know it is popular to call atheism a religion, but that doesn't make it true. That is like calling the lack of atmosphere an atmosphere.
If I have a religion, as in what I believe in, I'd call it the scientific method. And my god would be Truth.

Well, then, add that? Keeping an NPOV, add those factoids? With sources, of course.
The LiveJournal software is open source, btw. One can in theory run it on one's own server.

Ah, right. I guess in Danish versions of SG:SG1, it's Tor. :)
It is spelled Thor, though.
Yes, but if you don't distribute, you don't have to give the source. Quite logical, no?
This... is lame. God I can't wait 'til the election is over, and the pro-kerry and pro-bush supporters stop taking drugs....
