    Right. This way, it's exactly like the old joke:

    Daddy rabbit teaches his son the art of fucking. He puts 3 chick rabbits on line and tells his son:

    Watch carefully, I can't do this often. Then he turns to chicks and goes 1,2,3,done. Did you get it, son?

    Oh, no problem, it looked rather easy. Let me try.

    He puts same 3 chicks on line and goes 1,2,3,4....ooooops, sorry dad!

    "My Documents"? One folder, stamped on the root of the filesystem? What is it, the computer's documents? But wait - Win2k and XP have moved it to the oh-so-simple to find (not to mention making so much sense) location of "\Windows\Application Data\Username\My Documents".

    This is, actually, C:\WINNT\DocumentsAndSettings\user\

    But yes, Windows directory structure sucks.

    I have had some success though, when explaining that Linux/UNIX file system structure is much more logical, despite the fact that it hasn't been an easy task, mostly due to people's lazyness. However, when you try to explain everything, from HD partitions and how do they get names assigned, to purpose of certain directories in linux, they usually understand why is this logical and better for the system and users alike.

    Company I work for as a sysadmin uses w2k on desktops. We run mostly Red Hat servers with a bit of NT/W2K boxes that make our lives, well, interesting.

  22. Re:Australia is a funny country... on Dismal Failure of Internet Filters In Australia · · Score: 2, Informative
    Actually, I never did and never would filter out anything. There are two reasons for this - one is that they would eventually find out about any filtered content anyway and be forced to view it elsewhere. The other one is that all that crap is unfortunatelly part of the world we live in and hiding it artificially from children would hurt them in a way that they didn't have information on time. This way they are better equipped to protect themselves - don't forget we, as parents, are not going to be here forever. I figure much better way of fighting something you don't approve is to build awareness, rather than hide in ignorance - we completely agree here. I also have to say that my wife and I have really been blessed with two amazing children and it was never a problem talking about anything with them.

    BTW, check http://oralse.cx - someone on /. had it the other day in a sig. It's a clever one and has quite a few funny images on a 'contrib' page.
