This is a great example of the type of virus that could affect any OS including Linux.
In theory yes. But almost all Linux user these days are geeks who damn well know not to run tools like that IMHO.
Maybe this will change in a couple of years, but today, most wanna-be-geeks give up at the installation level of Linux.
In addition to that you would have to write a worm which is compatible to one-hell of a lot of adressbook formats (evolution, kmail, mozilla..you name it).
"go to a bash prompt and type su and enter your password."
Yeah right. As i'd give my kids/wife the root password LOL.
I don't doubt the Holocaust happened. But I wasn't there, nor do I know any one who was there. So it is all heresay of hearsay, or history books and The History Channel.
Right but i have seen enough interviews on TV from People who *have* been there. Those people have no reason to lie. What could anyone do to 90 year old men and women? Not much i'd say.
My friend says these Jewish men were told to make up the terrible stories, they were told to do so by Jewish leaders who were never in the camps, and they had to make up the stories so that the world would give the Jewish leaders whatever they wanted, which was power.
I do think that this is possible. There may have been camps where people have been handled correctly. Im even damn sure those camps did exist. But the majority were KZs "as seen on TV" or how else can one explain 6 million dead victims.
But if I published this anecdote in Germany, I would be arrested for it
That might be correct. Oh and i would not shoot you. That's against the law;)
Oh, and President Clinton was "was a genius (sp?) in rethorics and speach," too, but I don't consider that a redeeming quality. The ooze that comes out of a zit has more going for it than that, for the exact reason that the ooze won't brainwash millions of people to support it.
Correct. BTW (sp?) stands for (spelling?). Thanks for copying that.
As long as you don't dispute the official story of the Holocaust
People who deny the Holocaust should be shot on sight IMHO. There is enough evidence that the holocaust has happened. These people are making fun of *MILLIONS* of dead men, women and childern. This has nothing to do with free speach.
don't say anything that can be considered anti-semitic
If you are in politics and say something anti-semitic your are dead meat in 90% of the time. This has nothing todo with freedom of press.
never say Hitler had any redeeming qualities
Plain wrong, sorry. Many people think *and say* that Hitler was a genius (sp?) in rethorics and speach. Hey this idiot managed to convince a whole country to go to war for him. You should see some old TV recordings from him. In rethorics he was one of the best of his time. Sadly he was'nt a genius is 90% of the other things he did....
if I wanted to be an idiot, racist, insensitive jerk, I have the right to make it known.
As long as you stay within the law you can - of course - do that in germany, too. You wont have many friend, but thats a different matter;)
How many poeple in Germany are in jail for one of the above offences?
See my comment on the holocaust. Most of them plainly deserve it IMO
Did you know that the very first Ariane 5 Rocket did a selfdestruction a few seconds after liftoffbecause the flightprogram was written using "cm", but the software on board the Ariane was an old version (from Ariane 4) which used Inch?
Big "Ooops", indeed:)

Im running Linux SuSE Pro and just wanted to
add some things:
the only thing that sometimes totally crashes it is the damn openGL driver
Well i have to admit...the lousy NVIDIA driver likes
to crash my SuSE, too
And that *hibernate* feature is nothing less than perfect.
AFAIK Linux does not support suspend-to-disk, yet.
But you can of course bring your system into the
suspend (or was it standby?) mode by entering a single command line apm -s (or create a desktop-menu item which executes this command)
When in suspend (or standby?) mode, all fans and disk-drives are turned off so your computer does not make any noise.
press reset on running linux, will check ext2-fs'es forever. press reset on xp, ntfs'es don't even notice.
Well the standart filesystem with most Linux distributions is (sadly enuff) ext2. But of course
-since its Linux-- you can install a journaling filesyste like RaiserFS, XFS or JFS without much trouble (SuSE is using RaiserFS as a default since version 7.2). If you press the reset button on my system when its booted (im using RaiserFS), it takes less than 4 seconds/Drive for the filesystem check.
you have to shut it down to have some silence in the evenings
See my first reply (apm -s):)
linux is by far the best for servers.
Roger That
linux desktop I tried and it sucked.
Just take a look at my current desktop
It may not be "perfect" but it surly doesn't suck hehe

You are "loosing" RAM because of caching data into
the RAM
This happens with Linux, too.
And this happens, too if your are not doing anything but boot your computer and let it "sit".

that an article about lack of freedom of the press in the US, is published in germany?
In germany the freedom of press is regarded almost as valueable as the human rights.
And we dont live in the 1940th anymore, mind you.
Thanks for the link!
