will come when Bernstein puts a restrictive license on his algorithm that nobody can get binaries of it except from him.
And of course, don't forget the obligatory mailing list carrying 30% messages of merit and 70% messages of people bitching about djb and his licensing.
He recommends setting each user's dir to 0700. If this machine runs apache and you have UserDir turned on to allow http://some.box/~user/ style access which maps ~user to something like/home/user/web-public, apache will not be able to serve up that user's web-public.
Because it's GNUstep. GNU. As in GPL. BSD is not GPL'ed. As far as I know the only official GNU blessing of the use of the BSD license was when RMS approved of ogg switching from LGPL to BSD to aid in acceptance with hardware makers.
With FSF driving the bus, I don't see it making any forays into software which doesn't support the GPL.
I, personally, have grown weary of Linux distros. Redhat is chock full of bloat, Two attempts at debian have left me frustrated and angry. I read on the "You can roll your own" like LinuxFromScratch, but dont have that much time to invest.
When OpenBSD 3.0 came out, I installed it on a spare box just for giggles. I was shocked to find that it was EXACTLY what I expected from an OS. That box became my new cable modem router. I can't quantify it, but OpenBSD just FEELS right. If it did SMP, I'd have it on every box I own by now.
All Microsoft has to do is put a decent screen on theirs and it's a lock. I tried out a friend's GBA and gave up. How useful is a system that's only useable in direct sunlight?
I remember ten years ago working at a Babbages, playing California Games on an Atari Lynx. Backlit, 4096 colors, and a hell of alot of fun.
I'd be willing to pump more batteries in the damn thing if it meant I could see the screen.
Yes. The ending to Cryptonomicon occurs about 90 pages after the book runs out of paper. Like all of Stephenson's books, he writes good prose and then ends the book by flipping a switch, leaving most of the questions unanswered.

Better yet, can you imagine a Beowulf Cluster of Kathleen Fents?
I'm coming up on my ten year anniversary this June. Being married is better than being single. Really.
Congratulations.
