  12. Re:Capitalism on Natural Capitalism · · Score: 1
    That 90% portion of wealth didn't exist before capitalist systems created it.


    So you're saying that with out capitalism we would all be living in famine and poverty. Capitalism does not equate to progress. If people derailed from the persuit of capital, and worked for the good of their communities we would progress much faster than we our now in our competitive, exploitiational system.

    I didn't know that the IMF had anything at all to do with capitalism. The IMF is a liberal-socialist inspired idea to spread some money around in the form of loans. It makes bad loans because it is a primarily political entity. The IMF exists because no normal bank would lend money to places like Uganda. Socialists are screwing the Ugandans and trying to foist the blame on the capitalist system. Ain't gonna work buddy, at least not here, not today.


    That is ridiculous. The IMF was created primarly by investors as a means to keep 3rd world nations in debt. In exchange for money that is used to aid emergencies, these 3rd world nations (such as Uganda) must reform their economic systems (such as farming cash crops) in order to gain profits which are handed back over to the IMF/World Bank. It's too broad of a topic to discuss here, but if you're going to scapegoat Socialism, at least give some sort of arguement, instead of childish statement.

    Out of all the privately run water systems in the world, this is the only one that is bad? How many of the gov't run facilities are killing people? Then of course one must ask what does "privatize" mean in Belize, it could just be another scheme of a corrupt government official to set up his son-in-law for life.


    No, this was an example. Belize needed money to cure a crisis, so they sell their water supply to a US based (I forget the name) company. The company jacks up the price for water on Belize laborers (people who couldn't afford it died as a result). Capitalism at it's best.

    If we could get rid of socialism the IMF could be disbanded.


    Does the IMF/Worldbank benefit Cuba? No. It's benefits the capitalists investors who gain money from it (who wrote the WTO charter?). I do not believe that socialism is the answer for our of our problems. I'm sure that socialism would be better than the society that we live in today. You can keep on ignoring all of the exploiting and suffering going on in the world, you can be sure that all the wallstreet investors are.


    And for your final remark, it's not hard to miss the single capitalist ideal, the persuit of capital.

  13. Re:Applix Good, Corel Bad. on Is The Microsoft-Free Office Possible? · · Score: 1

    Why run ApplixWare in emulation? There is a native freebsd port, which should work on NetBSD.

  14. Re:Capitalism on Natural Capitalism · · Score: 1

    Yeah, capitalism is sure great for the world. What with 10% holding 90% of the wealth, 71% of Uganada's GNP going to the IMF, the privatized water supply in Belize (which has already killed 50 people), and global warming increasing at an exponential rate. Yes, as long as those damn socialists don't take over, these problems will fix themselves.

    Why don't you open your eyes a little bit to the world around, instead of getting tangled up in flawed capitalist ideals?

  25. A plesant configuration.. on From POP3 To IMAP-What Solutions Are There? · · Score: 1
    I have a setup at my school with proves to be pretty robust. For the MTA I use Qmail (for it's security and speed) and mail storage in the Maildir format. I use Maildir because it is a lot faster, and handles crashes better. Qmail comes with it's own POP3 daemon, which also works with the Maildir. I use the UCSPI-TCP package's tcpserver instead of inetd to run Qmail's SMTP and POP daemons for it's added security, configurability, and speed.

    For and IMAP server I use the Courier IMAP package. It is a small, featurefull server which support Maildir. It would probably be fine for your needs as it has a very well designed authentication model which supports LDAP (among other things). Courier is faster and smaller than UW-IMAP and Cyrus.

    Finally I use TWIG for Webmail. It supports IMAP mail, calendars, contact lists, newsgroups, etc. It is also based on PHP (yay!).

    It is a very nice setup, and wasen't too hard to setup. Oh, I forgot to mention that the server is FreeBSD 3.4.
