I believe I'll be buying this game. It's good, it's local... and it's linux. If it didn't run on linux I would not buy it as I haven't booted windows on this computer for a long time and don't intend to.
I think they are more refferring to design elements... but your point it still vary valid... take runas as a weak example as it is no where near as good as su or sudo.
I've actually met the development team behind this game... a years ago, (after their E3 presentation for last year's E3...) they had no plans to port to linux when I asked them. Now they do... I wonder what changed...
As for the company and them having the balls to do it, I'm not surprised at all... a small company with a quality product like this... with technically inclined people is a perfect type of company to do this.
As user-mode-linux gets better... who's to say it requires a reboot? Why not just slowly load a foriegn kernel and slowly pass control of the hardware as it asks for it... so windows can just boot natively from linux, and linux kinda shuts down at the same time.
Being the kernel junkie I am... I poped open the kernel config options...
You can just turn off the kernel networking options... granted... X won't work, but that won't be a problem. (could also just hack the code to use a different range for lo...)
Hey, and if you turn off networking, even the RIAA can't track you down for filesharing!

Reminds me of a great little saying:
Windows: built for the internet The Internet: built for *nix
The nerds control something... the nerds like *nix... it ain't gonna die off completely. I doubt the government can really stop us... I mean, think about it.
I think it's probably refferring to the User mode Linux patch perhaps? Which allows one kernel to act as a parent for another to allow a sandbox to run a kernel in. Helps with debugging and telling someone you're giving them a dedicated server when you have six kernel instances running on the same box.
Password cracking in 24 hours as opposed to much longer, on a really slow machine, current machines can get any NT4 hash in 6 or less.
Also there are small issues with potential hash re-use under NT4 and a few other things. Security wise, NT4 is pretty bad... LMhashs are a big part of that.
You have all the empty space still taking up room though. And this may be more for versioning and others where compression and other issues would be highly important. Especially if your trying to store 3 different copies of a few of these things, you don't want the extra room taken up by the empty space.
All I have to say on the subject of your choice of a screename is that people smart enough to be in mensa should be smart enough to not be in mensa.
Yes, but the transparent proxying is also a huge problem to the security consious as if your SMTP server is ever compromised, all e-mail is at risk, some people prefer to use other SMTP servers to mitigate that risk.
So if you do this, make sure you inform your customers, not keep quite about it. Otherwise it's a good way to piss off the ones you want on your network, security concious informed users... fortunatly for you they exist. Informed users... wow.
Our country has taken the stand that killing al-qaeda members is acceptable moral practice, I doubt stealing from them is more immoral than killing or imprisoning them without trial outright...
Nothing is computationally impossible, just computationally expensive. Though I agree the bf method they are using is not the best, it does distribute decently and there is always a chance... hell, they could just get lucky and hit it tommorrow... I suppose it's like playing the lotto, except you will eventually win, but the odds are extremely high and as you test more and more they get better... and better... and better.
So now I can look like a god in the game without playing it from the comfort of vi and a nice little php script. Thanks!
Does anyone see a point in this? Kinda cool... but uh... easily changed?

It already has...
It's even included in openBSD by default.

Actually it states right on the page that indeed, it is done using amazon's webservices.
Put so elequently, I can't disagree...
Though I still hope for changes in copyright law, this is considerablely better than the laws they were trying to pass before.
So anyone have conspiracy theroies on who's spearheading this now that Rosen is pretty much receding from importance?

Yeah, I hear this small little niche 3-d package was recently bought by this... open source community of which you speak.
But synaptic is so cool... surely they'll want to use it? j/k
Sectionals don't have the same response patterns, if this were a front page story...
