the asian airlines still have them on international flights. Of course, if you were to be so rude as to ask for sexual favors, there also are a couple armed marshals (yes, they know martial arts too) aboard who will give you an attitude adjustment. I once was on a flight where a guy sat next to a woman and did something to make her scream, lets just say the police in chicago are gentler with perps......
I agree that what you say (about waste) is absolutely correct. however, it seems far too much of the "conserve energy" movement is focused on lowering quality of life, turning back progress. We should be tapping into abundant non-polluting energy.
ever try it, or you just post what you THINK works

nope, certain gnome dot files will screw up xfce4. you'd have to remove GNOME desktop first, and then delete some dot files in home directory. the truth is that fedora is geared to about two desktops and xfce isn't one
you will have all manner of problems if you still have GNOME and its files around. the proper way would be to uninstall GNOME desktop and erase all the dot files that could fuck xfce up, and there are a few. I tried Fedora as one possibility to fleeing ubuntu, but quite frankly the alternative desktops either aren't as well stocked for serious admin of the machine, or have conflicts
No, I do not wish to conserve energy. Progress, quality of life, advancement of civilization is driven by energy consumption. I wish to increase the use of energy for productive ends, while driving its cost downward. We need to develop the safe nuclear reactor designs and fuel cycles to use the centuries of fuel we have until we figure out fusion.
Since the earth's population will soon peak at 8.5 billion in about 2075 and then decline, some of the "unsustainable growth" nonsense needs to be given the heave-ho too.
I just read a 1999 report number of leukemia cases in Seascale, five cases of which four were before 1970. Did things suddenly go south in the 21st century, or is "a handful" just about the right phrase for the absolute number of total cases? There is a hereditary component to risk for that disease.
Now I don't like pollution of any kind, and my brilliant idea is to first mandating true filtration of ejected waste or else closing down all places pumping or leaking rad crap into the ocean and groundwater. I'd rather the Irish sea was much cleaner, but your first post gave impression that the cerenkov radation from the sea made it an eerie blue daylight 24x7
Don't get hysterical, the risk of cancer from heavy diet of seafood from Irish sea is on the order of one in over perhaps fifteen to twenty million, while all Irish people have a 1 in 550 chance of getting cancer anyway. (see the nice wikipedia article on Irish sea). As for the alpha emitting pieces of garbage you found on beach, public service announcement: *don't eat the alpha-emitting garbage". Most anything equal to or thicker than a sheet of paper will stop those alphas, you know, and those that do hit your skin might burrow in a bit and then soak up a couple electrons to become the dreaded He gas that terrorists put in rubber bladders and sell to children.
Yes, "real world" provably secure rather than your "ivory tower knothead" secure. The thing has stood the attacks of the wild, and has the admiration and use of experts in the field. the kind of audit and certification you are talking about means nothing, suppose the pathological liars of Gartner commissioned some agenda-driven study.....
Guess which bug I hit when trying to build my Linux 3.1.0 kernel from the gzipped file, the one where if there are more than 16K entries some symlinks get hosed using the usual gzip included in many distros. (yes, there is patch). Now that is probably the most used compression algorithm in the open source world, and it had that long time issue that now cropped up with the massive amounts of files in kernel. And you want to trust your filesystem to some such thing with perhaps other bugs to crop up on massive amounts of internal files? no thanks, filesystems need to be rock solid.
unless you live in rural area I can't imagine that two disk purchase limit to be much of a crimp on anything. Within five mile radius of my home I could go to ten different computer/office chains and have twenty drives were such limits in place (and they're not, plenty of other brands are NOT made in Thailand)
How strange, OpenBSD even gives you option of automatic disk partition layout, they'll do it for you! on a DHCP network with typical desktop PC you could take defaults all the way except for providing root password and any username/password you want through the install, and have a bootable system in less than ten minutes. It's faster than installing typical GNU/Linux or Unix, that's for sure.
A small target? Their security wares (including openssh and openssl) are used by almost all the Unix, BSD, Linux. and by major companies (cisco, juniper, HP, etc.). That makes some of the wares of the OpenBSD team a HUGE target. Now where will you find the most secure implementation of those wares in an operating system?
There you go, raising that tired old misconception that the only security work OpenBSD team did was to "secure the base install only". Why don't you educate yourself on its architecture, its security libraries and softwares, and how the OS protects against privilege escalation and execution of malicious code. Why not learn why the OpenBSD filesystem is more robust than most? Then you can discuss real shortcomings (yes I know some, but they're not anything you mentioned) instead of aping same old nonsense that gets raised every six months.
Then why does the OpenBSD team have recognized leadership in the security industry, their wares are part of major OS such as HP/UX, Sun Solaris, sgi IRIX, and in products such as certain models of Cisco and Juniper routers and HP Procurve switches?
No, Mark. Unity looks really bad, like it came out of your ass. It it less usable than alternatives and hinders productivity. I, like many others, dumped your distro because of that crap and went to another.
No, existing factories elsewhere will merely kick production up a bit because of the rising prices. We're talking about 28% of the 25% of disks worldwide that are made in Thailand. This 7% loss isn't the end of the world.
That's for Thailand alone, they do make 25% of the world's disks. So that 7% drop is significant, but not dire. Other factories can and will kick up production temporarily because of the rising prices.
compared to Microsoft's support for the home user? Heck, even having paid Microsoft support for servers at work means dialing Mumbai and getting read to from a script for a half hour until things get escalated. The internet solves my GNU/Linux and *BSD issues in under five minutes generally. *Never* had issue with open source software that myself plus the internet couldn't solve.
Facts??!! the article is a request for opinions. Opinions are like hind ends, everyone has them and no two are the same, and everyone's stinks sometimes.

I was referring to the OpenSSH and OpenSSL implementations that the OpenBSD team developed from scratch.

yes, Oracle still refuses to put a decent license on their wares. So once again they fail the OpenBSD's team's benchmark
