I was reading your post and came up with the line. Sorry but you seemed most irratable in your original post and well I could not help posting it. I have not be disuaded from that view. I personally like SUSE because she wears long black boots and short short skirts.
I Smell the blood of a Gentoo bum. Yast is a hell of a lot better then endless config files and in obscure locations. Prefect? Hell no, but a good start. I have yet to see any Linux distro be bug free or completely ready. But the worst part of any Linux is the management. Yast starts well and for those willing to just start out then it's a good place to start. BTW, a lot of us are Admins here, being one does not make your words the absolute truth. Save that for the watercooler set. You have been so deep in system management your view is skewed. Not every linux user wants to fiddle every config file on the system just to get it to print files and run firefox.
I just got a ASUS DiGiMatrix, it's not only silent but it fits in with my stereo components. I just got it and haven't worked out all the features but it's been working well as a normal component in my network running headless without an issue. All the software is Windoze so I put XP Pro on it and manage it from my linux box w/ Terminal Services. Take a look.
Remember kids, getting a copyright without Internet Explorer on a Microsoft operating system is the first step towards piracy. Look what happens when Amazon puts out a patent. Those are made on Apple computers. First thing after they are anounced they are proven to be weird. Don't take chances USE MICROSOFT!
No sign of Linus Torvalds or anything using Linux. Although I think the mechapeguin as run by a SCO system. Considering how easily the hero Penguins defeated it.
[what is a good slashdot discussion without a bit of SCO bashing?]
Not quite, I follow the Tao. This is not to say that every path leads to the same place. It does not. However there are clear choices sometimes. I have read enough, seen enough and understand enough of Japan's past to see that they don't give up easily. Sometimes the Cop really has no choice and has to shoot the gun. The Bomb was so overwhelming that it's not been seriously considered since those two uses.
The US made a decision not to abuse their Japanese citizens in the camps. It was in our national character. No matter how stupid the original choice to lock them up we didn't go much further. The German death camps were a compounded problem. Not only did they lock people up they systematicly killed them. We were liberating those camps about the time we used the A-bomb. Now tell me that a different decision would have been reached. Only the Emperor could have stopped that war. And only something really impressive could get his attention. This does not mean we should not regret using them, it's just how it goes sometimes.
Aside from death by illness, 99.999% of those held at the US camps walked out healthy, well fed, and un-abused. Has shameful as it was it was not comparable to the death camps. The Atomic bombings, also shameful were sadly unavoidable. The Chrysanthemum and the Sword, the classic analysis of wartime Japan by the American cultural anthropologist Ruth Benedict gives a good insight into why it had to be done. The soldiers of that era would have fought to the last man on the orders of the emperor. It was kill the Emperor or make him understand that he was outguned. Killing him would have made sure the war never ended. He got the message. And we had to prove it wasn't a fluke or meteor. Oddly, my sig fits this well "If it's not loud, it doesn't work!" -- Blank Reg, from "Max Headroom"
maybe I sounded a little distracted and this deserved more attention. The nations is swinging hard toward the right and it's not in a good way. 911 changed nothing, proved nothing and these lies make me ill. Good in government is hard to find, and it's been gone completely for the last five years.
Remember kids, buying a computer without an operating system is the first step towards piracy. Act now and call BSA and report anyone who offers you a computers without a licensed operating system. Say No to Piracy.

They were right to grill him on that piece, The question becomes it is a unique reaction here is the Wikipedia I think it also has that reaction when exposed to dihydrogen monoxide Standards! people we must have Standards!
Sorry to tread on some popular illusions but Scientists do not always make good writers. It's a alien Skill. If they were smart then they would tap William Gibson, Neil Stephenson, Bruce Sterling or John Shirley. However I suspect that John Shirley would be arrested before he got within 20 miles of the Pentagon. Vernor Vinge and Rudy Rucker also write well within the field. Avoiding obvious bad science. I bring up Isaac Asimov because everytime he wrote it close to theory it didn't sound right. When he was writing Scientist Fiction is sucked.
I am half way thru Sterling's Zenith Angle, it talks well about the scientists as heroes. It's been a while since that's shown up in SciFi. Too Long.
It's not the act, it's the meothod of aquiring it. P2P makes for a lot of needs to purchase new gear to pursue such criminals. On the whole, its likely a Fund Raising Operation. There are these crooks there who we need to buy more computer gear to chase them. They will likely get their money and move up from Pentium 2 computers.
Results 1 - 10 of about 115,000 for "Liberté, egalité, fraternité". No clue who said it I guess your on your own. I don't subscribe to the "repetition is truth" idea either. However Ask a stupid question on slashdot get a stupid/flippant answer.
But I am not surprised that younger Texans don't either. Must be the education level, or something to do with horses. Now I did research this and Bo Peep's Dating was able to win exactly the same case in Montana. I won't get in to the details here.
I grew up feeding quarters into pinball and video games. I only resist buying a console so I don't have the excuse. Personally, I will wait for a linux solution to adapting game console games to a PC.
Whenever I hear this little strawman it's from somebody contesting the results. We heard it in Florida in 2000, we heard it just recently in Washington when that crybaby Rossi tried to get the third recount tossed because of alleged voter fraud. You don't get to pick and choose of the results after the election is done. X number of supposed fraud votes does not come off the number of the winners votes. If you suspect fraud stop that vote from going in. If it's in your S.O.L. And if I hear from somebody in person mouth that crap I am gonna take some of their teeth. A hidden vote is a hidden vote. Don't like it, then you don't like the USA and you should get the hell out.

Yeah, I feel so dirty. It's like seeing Your Mom's apple pie used in that movie about... Well you know which one I mean.

Upon reading the PDF, it's only about VoIP, so they can tap phones of Vonage, Packet 8 etc. I wonder how SkyPE or Project Gizmo will react to this.
Considering your nick here is Adult film producer (866485) just giving me access to your webcams would be fine. However IMHO 9/11 changed NOTHING!
