I also went to a Subway in Saint-Petersburg on Nevsky Prospect; there are definitely a lot of american fastfoods in Russia nowadays. One of the few places where some of the cashiers speak english actually -- which made us prefer the aventure of typical russian restaurants with no ways to communicate with the waitress.
Why? Why go to the same food places as you go to in your home country? Why talk in the same language? Try and learn a few words of Russian before you go. I don't understand people that want to go abroad, and yet be at home.
The problem with the whole "You have nothing to fear if you are not doing anything wrong"is that once you've gotten rid of the "bad people" how long before someone decides that YOU are bad or wrong?
Tip: In the UK, forward your mobile to a friend, and get them to forward back to you. Anyone dialling either of you will get the "network error" message.
I agree with all your points. The argument I was making is that there is nothing that the US Government can do to prevent people changing should they wish to.
even before the US has agreed to giving up control?
Pretty hard to avoid "giving up control" if everyone around the world starts using different root servers. It's like talking about Google refusing to give up controlling the search engine market. Only because people use it do they have control.
I find it really interesting that this went straight to +5 Insightful, but as Americans wake up, and can't take the truth, it gradually gets modded down.
Mind you, it's not much of a difference from the days when terrorists would go to dinners at the White House, to fundraise, and use the hundreds of thousands of dollars given by misguided "Irish" Americans to buy guns and bombs to kill innocent UK civilians in pubs, bars, shops, and town centres.
Seems to have gone out of favour after 11th Sept 01. Funny how it's not funny when it starts happening to you, isn't it?
Crack dealers are often very good businessmen, and have to work hard to keep the supply chains running, salesmen on the streets, etc
Not the way I see it. I could sell water to a man in a desert, and make a tidy profit.

Why isn't Linux working on a SQL-fs, before Windows leads with one? (I made a userland one in PHP/PgSQL, but I don't know anything about kernel modules, etc.)

I'm still waiting for them to make Kmail compile in 3.4.1 - it barfs on the Outlook Express import filter at the moment, of all things. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99643

Tell you the truth, I've actually moved to Thunderbird + Enigmail now - it rocks.

So? I'm just about to buy one of the few that will. Principles, dear Slashdotters, principles.
oggenc, oggenc you vile MP3 fiends. :)
What is the best way to start up a company that sells Linux support, etc to companies? Any ideas?
There are two types of people: Those that have lost data, and those that will.
Don't forget, though kids - RAID won't protect you from deleting your own data, or a malformed script trashing stuff.
Just tell people every month that you **haven't** been asked to hand over your keys.... Then, when you stop doing it, people will get the message.
"If you can't catch criminals, criminalise those that you can catch."
"Erm, it's the interests of national security, but we can't tell you why, or your lawyer. Trust us."
See the scarily arbitrary ASBOs in the UK.
I don't know. Google refuses to "know" anything about calum.org, even though it indexes my pages regularly. MSN and Yahoo know all about it though.

It still is, you know. Obviously, you have to weed out all spam, but filesize is a pretty good filter.
A mod point, a mod point, my root password for a mod point. I'm back playing smaller games that are addictive: www.happypenguin.org
Debian are rapidly becoming irrelevant, it seems.
/got mod points, burn me.
Erm, employ a UK/European based editor? It's certainly a revolutionary thought.

Took long enough to get the story on here. Everyone asleep? No editors in UK/European timezones?
