spamd has been around since OpenBSD 3.3. Not news at all. Anyway, I probably read this on undeadly.org, but one feature is particularly funny. When a probably spammer is connecting to your server, the greeting is sent with a TCP window size of 1 byte and a rate of 1 byte per second. Most spammers won't expect a connection to be so incredibly slow, so you end up wasting their time. It isn't meant to stop spam, but you can make spammers frustrated.
I upgraded, and eventually it erased my root directory. I'm presently trying to figure ext4 out and writing a program that should recursively recover files from/etc and my home directory. I recommend nobody use ext4 for at least five years.
It certainly does, but many of them are just covered in rocks. I think this is mostly a joke for my fellow Minnesotans (or WI/MI). Here's how I remember Superior: http://www.flickr.com/photos/janet_powell/199608971/
ktorrent has many confusing bugs in it. I was having trouble running it in OpenBSD-current at some point because the OBSD developers fixed something (probably gcc) that uncovered a bug in ktorrent. A huge memory leak and strange statistics led me to the solution: time was stuck at zero because of a line chock-full of type casts. Still, it has more elusive problems. It would abruptly crash or just go blank, occurring anywhere from 1-24 hours. How do you debug something like that?
This happened a couple years ago at the University of Minnesota. Somebody sent an email to tons of people using the TO field instead of the BCC. Probably fifty people hit 'Reply All' saying 'take me off the list' and 'I want off, too'. They let anybody in college these days.
Well for one thing, you can't use Battle.net in Starcraft. I haven't tried the other games. And it's certainly true that the more signatures the petition gets, the more likely Blizzard will do something about it. Still, it is a a slim chance even with a lot of signatures.
Why, this is the perfect place to advertise the Linux Installers for Blizzard Products Petition! I believe that if Blizzard supported Linux for its upcoming titles, it would change Linux gaming forever.
The games that would work best as open-source are already free, and America's Army comes to mind. As for commercial titles, all games get pirated anyway, so what do the developers have to lose?
Yes, and we won't know anymore. If we went into the election with equal coverage, even if it meant giving the worse candidate more attention than he deserves, the right person will more likely rise to the top. The whole idea that liberal media is just a sign of the times is nuts. Balance it out, let the people decide what to believe.

And in environmental news, scientists have announced that Springfield's air is now only dangerous to children and the elderly.
Woohoo!
Whatever, man. The music is what makes the video.
You ever watch Arrested Development? Hilarious.
I'll be happy when the Internet becomes more standards compliant. If it needs to be funded by Dell, so be it.

Nobody starts backing up until their first disaster.

I think that's Lake Superior.

Really? I was going for Democrat.
Minor casualty? I guess he won't be missed? (Yes, I RTFA.)
He also did not mention the prisoners in Guantanamo. If somebody starts saying that Miranda rights ought to apply, they need to be set straight.
The *nix API is in C.
<sarcasm>Are you talking about the Single *nix Specification (S*Sv3)?</sarcasm>

I don't know how I could have messed that up.
This sounds just like a story by H.P. Lovecraft, Herbert West—Reanimator.
I thought this movie was supposed to come out this Christmas season. Now I see on the Star Trek movie website 'Summer 09'. Am I imagining things?
Perhaps they could have enforced 32-bit public key encryption?
You are seeing it. I, also, am.

Ola Bini has no beard. The only proof you need that this language will fail?
