Oh look, here's my boot disc that doesn't auth anything.
:# mount -t ext2/dev/hda/hdd :# rm -rf/hdd/*
Anytime someone can sit down at a computer theres not much changing the log on schemes can do, unless its a dumb terminal and authentication / anything else is done offsite.

'Cause everything used to be x-something. (ie xterm, xclock, xetc.) They are just adopting the x naming convention. Just how you know everything that starts with x is an X11 app, you know everything that starts with a K was designed with KDE in mind as the desktop environment. It's a similiar situation with GNOME and GTK.
True it has come a bit cliched, but if you are browsing thru freshmeat and you see a Ksomething you immediatly know what environment it has been designed to run under.
Of course I could be completely worng about th whole K, and G things. Heck I could be wrong about the whole X thing for that matter. I just pulled this off the top of my head. But maybe, just maybe, I'm right. But then again I'm probably wrong.
How about your keys are derived from your thumbprint with one of those biometric thingies. It wouldn't matter where you were because you could always generate the private key (it could even be stored in ram, so as to not persist after your done, just scan your thumb when you turn on the computer) at any computer (of course you'd have to trust the computer you were at) and the public key would always be the same anyway (since you'd use the same alogrithim to derive the keys from the thumbprint) and no password to remember or to be guessed or hacked or changed, unless someone chops your thumb off in which case you got problems already more likely than not. The scanner could even be an open hardware spec so you wouldn't be trusting it to one company. Really paranoid? Roll your own scanner.
Look! Two old jokes in one. But seriously, aren't they afraid they are gonna hit some poor hiker strolling thru the desert? I mean it's kind of hard to get out of the way of a 140MPH Honda Civic. And what if they do drop that bus...squish.
do a search on rpmfind or apt-cache search, or however you do it for LinNeighborhood. Practically the same thing as the windows network neighborhood icon.
The Opencola soft drink formula was a time-limited marketing promotion that ran publicly until 2001 in support of the company's introductory open source product offering. Opencola has since changed its strategic direction and is now focusing its core business on developing a proprietary distributed content search application.

Um we use them interchangbly but they do not mean the same thing. Think of a dartboard. Being accurate is throwing 5 darts and they all hit the bullseye. Being precise is throwing five darts and they all hit the same spot on the dartboard, but are no where near the bullseye.
This has been your daily dose of high school chemistry (including the the standard high school analogy)
Think about it, if good photography were free, there'd be no good photographers.
Think about it, if good [software] was free, there'd be no good [software developers].
Of course, this post is just begging to be flamed / trolled what have you.
But I think its a valid point. I'm not the best photographer by any stretch of the human imagination but I have fun doing it on occasion. I am sure there are excellent photographers who do it just for the fun of it, just like there are excellent software developers who write code for the fun of it.

Oh I'd kill a small furry critter for mod points.
That wasn't Lionel Hutz, that was Troy McClure.
Huh? How the !@#$ is asm indepentdent of the architechture?????
Yeah but usb 2.0 is perfectly capable of connecting to usb 1.x devices. It's just slower that way.
Thanks, this is the point I was trying to make.
I thought survival was the reward for learning your lessons. Survival is an excellent incentive, but it doesn't seem to me it teaches all that much.

Yes
But thats not a fun hack, thats using formats on the medium they were designed for. Writing analog laserdisc data to a CD-R is just cool.
You forgot a letter. This is FFXI -- Eleven, NOT X -- Ten.
Thats the exception that proves the rule! Muhahaha. Let's see you beat that! :)

I think that was the parent's point.

You mean less likely to catch bugs right? Developers use software the "right" way. Its non-developers who do the stuff that cause bugs to crop up.
But but, I love cheese nips. Can't we at least change the name instead? How about to Cheeze-its?
I love slashdot. watch this.

See parent. Its useful, you type in a word you aren't quite sure about and you hit search and it will say did you mean insert correct spelling here
No.
