Is it just me or is the torrent file completely slashdotted? Both on the site from the article and on linuxtracker.org it just times out. Anybody have a mirror to the.torrent?
I like this quote from Linus: If you write programs for linux today, you shouldn't have too many surprises when you just recompile them for Hurd in the 21st century.
As if anyone would want to compile something for Hurd in the 21st century:)
...wasted on time you could have been patching Linux.
I don't believe that the majority of the linux hacks were due to flaws in the operating system as much as they were probably caused by misconfigurations by the people setting up those systems. Windows, on the other hand, comes with lots of holes built right in for you; no user intervention required!
HAMs were sending pictures and things before there was an internet over packet. You connect a packet controller to a computer and that to a radio and there were networks of HAMs sending crap to each other (and yes I'm sure there was porn).
If I told my neighbors' kid it'd be a great idea for him to start shooting up the streets, and he did, any just society would find some punishment for me as well as for the overly impressionable kid.
Yeah you would probably be punished but no where does it say in GTA that you should go out into real life and start shooting people. A video game is not going to make you go kill some one. These kids probably just said it was because of GTA to get off easier.
Personally, I blame it on parents not being responsible for thier kids. If parents would be a little more involved in thier children's lives we wouldn't have half the problems we do today.
Last time I checked I had depth perception (the 3rd dimention). Does everyone you know only have one eye? If that is true then I am very sorry for your and thier loss.
The same goes for the flying cars. Imagine the hurds of cars hoovering above the city searching for a parking spot...
Well hovering above looking for a spot sure beats the asshole who just stops in the middle of a one lane road and wait because he just saw someone remotely unlock thier car.
There are hardly hundreds of millions of internet users in the world, and only a small percentage of them use P2P file trading apps.
Why don't you take your own advice and "think through your numbers before you blurt them out like that." According to Nua Ltd. as of September 2002 there were 605 million internet users worldwide and I am sure there are more than that today.
the president has very little to do with the actual economic situation of the country, it's congress.
That's not entirely true, the president does actually suggest a lot of legislation and budget plans (unless they are an idiot like a certain president who started a war over something that doesn't exist). Yes congress has the final say but don't give them all the credit.

That's it I'm going out and making myself some laws!
Version 4 is currently in "gamma" release, in other words very stable beta. I use it on my website with no problems (although it does not have the load that a large website would need to stand up to).
You can customize Windows XP's GUI just as much as linux GUIs. There are entire websites dedicated to XP "Visual Styles" that can change the look of everything from the start menu/bar to window title bars.
P.S. Please don't kill me for defending windows on something.
If you looked at the sapphiretech card you would realize that it also takes up a pci slot with the bulky heatsinks connected to the heatpipe, so don't count that against the FX. There are many other cooling systems that take that pci slot (in fact my old GeForce 2 has one on it from when I bought it years ago).
Slashdot Mirror
I would have posted sooner but I was busy playing WoW. :)

But 64 is LXIV (50+10-1+5).

IANACPA but I'm pretty sure if you get accused of tax evasion in the US the burden of proof is on you as well.
Theft is wrong, no matter how you try to justfy or obscure it.
Tell that to the millions of people around the world using file sharing networks.
(Moderators please be kind)
...it's still illegal to write it in the first place.
/. readers.
Since when is it illegal to program? I better watch out for the cops in that case and so should the majority of
people like buying things for a dollar
Apple did it with iTunes, why can't they do it with these ROMs?
in the 2004 debates there had damn well better be some issues over this brought up
You should know there are no real issues brought up durring the debates. If there were we wouldn't have to deal with this idiot posing as president.

The RIAA should be suing 12-year-old girl's ISPs for providing them the bandwith to steal music with.

The only problem is I couldn't USE MY COMPUTER until about 2 AM EST! ... you insensitive clod.
Two words: "Hell Yeah!"
Translation: I couldn't agree with you more.

If it has the ability to run a C: prompt, it's legacy, even if it isn't DOS
So if I have a bash prompt at / mounted to hda (aka c: in some other OSes) does that mean my OS is legacy?

People want something that they can customize.
