    I can write Hello, world in one line of code by using the superpowerful programming language cat

    $ cat helloworld.cat

  5. EVIL on Anarchy Online to be Subscription Free · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The temptation is ridiculous. A year free trial? Usually I get bored of these games before a year is up. I'd have to reboot, I suppose, anyone know if AO runs under WINE. But a free year... hmmm.

    Well I googled and found this: http://www.csh.rit.edu/~marius/aolinux/. Perhaps I will give it a shot...

  6. Re:For starters.. on Boot Process Visualization · · Score: 1

    It syncs the disks, umounts them and reboots. Its a kernel level thingamajig, so its more likely to work than ctrl-alt-backspace, but i've still had it fail on me. You have to have magic-sysrq enabled in your kernel for it to work.

    Not everyone has time to be a security expert. And not everyone likes for instance, the OpenBSD way of doing things(Not that OpenBSD is the only secures OS). Maybe I like Debian. Maybe I worry about Sercurity but I don't have all this time to recompile everything with bounds-checking etc.

    Its for the same reason we have distributions period. Why doesn't everyone do LFS and assemble their own userland and tools?
