There I was, happily (trying to) read the page, *blam* up comes Xine...great, I get a video player that crashes Firefox 9 times out of 10 trying to stream mp3s from a heavily-loaded server. Lovely...
New processes run as the same user as the process which created them. When a process must take on the identity of a new user, such as to provide a login shell on a shared CPU server, it does so by proving to the host owner's factotum that it is authorized to do so. This is done by running an authentication protocol with factotum to prove that the process has access to secret information which only the new user should possess.
Whether that classes as an administrative process is up for debate depending on usage, I think.
The patent mentions an administrative process...doesn't sudo being setuid class as asking the kernel itself (an administrative process) to perform an action?
In the UK, MOT (Ministry Of Transport, I think) tests every year once the car reaches 5 years old. You can't get a tax disc (proving you paid your road tax), unless you have a valid MOT certificate.
Most shops I've seen here in the UK will not give a refund to opened music/DVD/software packages, only a replacement for damaged goods (broken copy of Doom3 for working copy of Doom3, for example).
It's well known that people born blind have better hearing, is it possible for the visual cortex to be co-opted for the purposes of hearing? As in, they "see" sounds visually?
<speculation>
And this is a bad thing? In the ST episodes, most of those separated from the Collective were pretty unhappy about it. I'd almost enjoy it if I never had to worry about whether anyone was lying to me or not:)

John hit the admin and test passwords pretty fast, nothing yet for the root/ourtelnetrescueuser ones, however. Almost irrelevant considering their hashes can just be replaced.
To me, it seems like the same thing as buying a trade magazine (say, Micro Mart in the UK). You are specifically *asking* for adverts on what you're looking at; in effect advertising yourself as a potential and interested buyer.
IMO, if someone (assume male here, but may be possible for some kinds of women) turns into a mass murderer, they must have some kind of grudge against people in general, probably from before they gained murderous leanings.
If they have problems with people, their ability to find a partner, whether long-term or simply for physical purposes, will be impacted. Thus, they turn to porn for their normal sexual impulses. However, you may end up with rapists from here.
However, Gentoo becomes... interesting, when you decide to change USE flags after the initial install, such as to add GNOME support (I went from -gnome to gnome, ended up breaking Evolution and requiring a reinstall).
I find it works near perfectly for me, but it has its downsides (usually it's a sign of potential trouble when libtool gives its message about linking to.la files being non-portable, as with KDE and Evolution, etc.).
Also in the UK most people still buy stupid manual cars for some reason and then every 100 metres when they have to change gear, one hand needs to operate the gearstick, one hand is holding the phone... whats going on with the steering wheel?
That's what your knees are for;)
I don't know about anyone else, but for when I'm using the first 3 gears I'm either negotiating something complicated (narrow two-way road), or accellerating up through them. By the time I hit 45mph or so I'm in 4th gear, then up to 5th for cruising. If you need to use the gears, you don't have the mental capacity to even drive an automatic and use a phone (horrible generalisation, but there's some awful drivers round here so I wouldn't put it past them).
This argument comes up every single time. XP Pro comes on a 450MiB CD. That's XP Pro. Just XP Pro. I don't even think it comes with a DVD player. It definitely doesn't come with a decent web browser, office tools, databases, all the random utilities everybody loves so much.

You have to be stoned.
Really.
No other way can you put up with that many "oh, yah"s without hanging yourself.
Alternatively, you could play the "oh, yah" drinking game...
At least it's not GM :)

Funny? More like insightful...oh wait, it changed between reading and commenting.

Seen this happen way too many times

Ales and beers, etc. are usually room-temperature. Lager OTOH is minging unless it's cold.
;-)
That said, Budweiser is pretty nasty at any temperature
Um, you insensitive clod.
Perfect considering the context!
Reasonable but stupid idea: Find someone with lots of experience forging signatures for gain (i.e., a criminal).
Offer them some kind of reduced sentence for assisting the researchers?

Makes me look way too young as well :(
Our first PC came with an AWE32, before then I was on an Acorn machine. So for me, it's a perfectly reasonable comment.
Mmmm Cubic Player. Hardware module playback on my AWE32 and real-time spectrum analyser. Them were the days :)
Something like this?

Just drop it into the parent and run. Auto-compiles if necessary. Also look up 0install.

It's a tired and totally invalid argument.
