Joe is definitely not an "evil mixture of both vi and emacs", if that's what you mean. It's a completely independent editor that, as mentioned in the article, builds mostly upon Wordstar-like commands.
Don't real pirates use irc or similar means? I'd think it's far too easy to determine where a particular usenet post comes from for it to be useful to pirates.
Of course, correct me if I'm wrong.
You're right that the analogy probably wouldn't exist now if there hadn't been an actual attack by the soldiers in the horse, but it is nevertheless a valid analogy: a trojan is, after all, merely something that tries conceal what it actually is, no matter what the intent.
Not quite:
I wasn't able to work with Gnome effectively => Other people will likely have the same problem (i.e., Gnome is not as user friendly as KDE) => Gnome is inferior to KDE => Adoption of Gnome will make SuSE Linux an inferior product => Adoption of Gnome will hurt SuSE (and thus Novell).
Yes, I know, that's a gross oversimplification, but there is a grain of truth in it, whereas *your* argumentation could be used to say that *any* change made to SuSE (or any of Novell's products) will not hurt Novell.
And, just for what it's worth, I don't want to start a Gnome vs. KDE flamewar; certainly both desktop environments have their merits and flaws (and fans), but I do think it's safe to say that KDE is more advanced, more mature, and more developed.
Personally, I'd switch away from SuSE the moment they stopped using KDE as their default desktop - I've never liked or been able to work effectively with any Gnome version, wether from Ximian or not.
Of course, I don't use SuSE anymore, anyway, so that probably doesn't mean too much, but I do think that using Gnome instead of KDE in the future would only hurt SuSE (and thus Novell).
According to what I learned in school, each bomb killed more than 300,000 people instantly and many more in the long run - certainly more than 250,000 in total, but even that would've been 250,000 too many.
And it's rather cynical to say "They certainly saved allied lives compared to what the invasion of Japan would have cost", don't you think? Is the life of an allied soldier worth more than that of a japanese civilian? If anything, I'd say it's just the opposite - a soldier is paid to go to war, after all, so being killed is a risk you know about and are willing to take. A civilian is just a civilian.
I'm not sure what you're referring to now - all I asked was "Why would this make him a hero?" If that's button-pushing, then what isn't?
The other comment I posted about being gay etc. was merely a reply to the anonymous reply to my question.
*earscratches* Well, there is nothing wrong with being gay, not at all, not to mention that being taken into the rear is not what being gay is about.
And for what it's worth, I was asking why helping develop nuclear weapons would make him a hero...

Animal pornography is not evil.
The fools. Haven't they watched Gremlins 2?
The two most important tools by far, I think, are PuTTY and WinSCP.

Great news! Joe's a much better editor than vi and emacs combined, and it's great to see it's getting an update again finally.
The article mentions that release notes used to be available at

Does anyone have a copy of those? The file doesn't seem to be there anymore.
Interesting. Two suggestions, though:
Interesting. Now, where can I see pictures of Google's hardware today?

You only had it if they downloaded it from you, though - which certainly can't be guaranteed in a p2p environment.

Namely? Sorry, I'm genuinely ignorant. :)
Narf! Zonk! :)
Out of curiosity, which crime would they be committing?

That's CMYK, dear /. editors, not CYMK. :)
Anything that will take him out of the spamming business for good can't be a bad thing. :)
Oh, and BTW, it's not my website - I'm just linking to it.
Well, I sure hope you'll sign up for the army soon and get killed in the next war.
