    Inadequate and Deceptive Product Labeling: Comparison of 21 ... WEBSERVERS? :P

    Seems quite slashdotted.

  11. Linuxdays on NetBSD @ linuxday.lu · · Score: 4, Informative

    [...] his experiences at the second Linuxdays of Lexembourgh [...]
    Ok, it is true that we are a small country. And it might be true that only very few of you have heard about us. BUT: The country's name is Luxembourg(h) and nothing with Lexe or sth. ;)

    Anyway, the Linuxdays were not really a big success, there were a few geeks and a lot of "oh-i-can-install-suse23-so-i-am-a-linux-god"-peop le ...

  16. The Sun Cobalt series ... on Preconfigured Linux Servers for Sale? · · Score: 1

    These Sun Server Appliances seem to be a good hcoice you, you don't need a lot of experience with Linux as you can set up everything via web-interface.

    I personally don't like them that much because i like to configure my own machines, but Cobalt's are suited for people who don't have the time or the experience to manage a custom server.

  17. The two most important things: on If You Had Something to Say to Future Generations...? · · Score: 1

    ... STFU and RTFM!

  18. Re:people like you give coders a bad name on What is Well-Commented Code? · · Score: 1

    keeping your job by writing crap that no one can possibly understand only creates hatred from the others who may have to read and alter your code.
    Hah! Sorry, but i am unemployed. No, i'm not really unemployed, i'm still going to school. I do not work for a company, and so i cannot lose my job. The code i write is for me, and works for me. I share it and if you don't like it, fine, i don't care.

  19. Re:Variable Names on What is Well-Commented Code? · · Score: 0

    Not quite... when I program, i just take the names that come to my mind. These are often $foo, $muh or just plain $data, sometimes $raw_data.

    But i think a clear code-structure is more important than variable names or detailed comments.

  21. Solution ... on Employees Are The Biggest Security Threat · · Score: 1

  22. Biking on Geek Outdoor Hobbies? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I like mountainbiking a lot to get some time off. I is a really fun sport, but tricky and exhausting in the beginning. You'll get a really good endurance if you practise at least a 2 times a week (for about 2 hours). Besides your flexibility will improve if you ride in more difficult terrain, but it takes a while to get used to handling a mountainbike. Equipment is rather expensive if you want to have good quality bikes, but that shouldn't be the problem if you're plaing around with GPS systems out there ;)

  23. Re:Helloooooo? on Linux Kernel 2.5.8 Released · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Well where's the problem? They do their best to satisfy everyone's needs ... what if you had such a machine? were you still unhappy about this? Another point is that they try to improve linux support on bigger machines, which are often IBM servers ...

    If you're right, noone replies ...

  24. Duh ... on Using OpenBSD to Secure Small Networks, Part 2 · · Score: 1

    Ok, the article is fine, informative and well shaped, needless to say that openbsd does it's work really well as a firewall.

    But why the hell do we have 80% troll posts? This sucks ... really.

    Oh yeah, mod me down now, but you know i'm right ...

  25. Could we apply the facial damage engine ... on Is Realism Destroying Video Games? · · Score: 5, Funny
