Yeah, I recently let some of my friends convince me to try out Linux, and it seems like nothing more than a bad clone of DOS. If the kooky Open Source community is just going to sit around cloning MS software, they should at least clone the revolutionary stuff like MSPaint or regedit.
Python also has the benefit that it can run as an interactive shell. For someone who's learning to program, it's extremely handy to be able to type something in and see instant results.
This is a key point that no one in the Linux/Unix community seems to understand.
What's more transparent, a series of easy to edit text files with names that correspond to the program they control, or storing all information for all programs in one giant binary file?
UNIX is something that you don't seem to understand.

Actually, I work at a university and we've noticed a sharp decrease in the amount of bandwidth being used in the past week.
of course, all of the students are gone for x-mas...
This should do wonders for the NYT. I know I'm going to go out and buy a copy.
"I Hate" also produces some pretty funny results.
despite the idiocy of the headline (which at least put "invent" in quotes), the article seems to suggest that Linus didn't invent UNIX.
Last time I checked, that was true.
XRC is free and can also be used to design GUIs.
No, I'm pretty sure it's Mach-based, like HURD.
They're actually going to send spams advertising their opponent's campaigns.
HURD is the GNU kernel. Debian is Linux distro, hence not HURD.

I recommend testing it for at least 9 days.
VBA is much worse; in fact, I think it's the spawn of Satan himself.
I'm quite sure if there is a language that evil, it is coldfusion.

My friend got that certification. She said it was a pain in the ass.
They could always stop spending money on software entirely and use Linux.
Study CS in undergrad. Wait until Graduate School to specialize.
A lot of public schools are still using 95.
Can it run Linux?
Actually, They're going to change it's name to the X-Box NeXT and load a Mach-based OS on it. It'll also be cube shaped.
A smart cracker would realize that he doesn't need to attack the update process to compromise the system.
Yeah, but it can be pretty easily proven that this DOS attack won't be coming from any Linux boxes.
73 Megabits is pretty large for a coredump.
Honestly, If you're going to build a homemade weapon, build a railgun.
Compilers can be slightly faster if they don't have to take the time to match names with case inconsistencies.
