The number of meteorites impacting the earth daily is in the hundreds if not thousands. Most of them are so small that they bun up in the upper atmosphere. On average 2 every day are big enough to make it through the atmosphere and reach earth. If the comet was fragmented into tiny pieces it would not matter.
A mass spectrometer will give you the exact alloy composition of your car's cylinder or gearbox. If someone does this and makes the information publicly available then you don't even have to do it yourself.
Slackware was always famous for slow release cycles and stability as well. As for 64bit distros it is still hard to find a real use for them. At least in my environment.
No digital cameras then.:) I remember it was a shopping bag full of them.
Unfortunatelly not the most reliable medium. I still have vivid memories from the strugle.
I used to run that on a 386DX33 with 4MB of RAM. And I was fortunate I had a friend who had to run it on 2MB. Try that nowadays. When I got money for 8MB Xwindows started flying even using Openlook.
I found in 2004 a slackware 3.6 mail server which I instaled back in 1998. It hasn't been rebooted since. Almost 6 years uptime and over the 2000 day mark.
First one I installed it was 40 something floppy drives and it took me quite a few hours. That was back in 93. Nowadays you install everything off a usb stick in minutes. Sort of spoils the whole adventure.
Me neither, but I am strongly advocating for the reduction of our impact on the environment. Otherwise we will cull ourselves by famine, due to destruction of fertile land, disease, caused by pollution lack of water supply and ultimately genocide. WAIT! We are already doing that!

Mosquitoes certainly have their role in the ecosystem and killing them will certainly have unforeseen consequences. More like in the Mao and sparrows story

True, but the cat is out of the bag now. They could have open sourced java years ago and really make a difference. Right now I only remember their stupid forms I needed to complete on their website to download the Linux version.
The day they will open source ZFS will be when their next file system will be ready for sale. And from the looks of their recent performance that will be never.

SLS was not arround that long and it was rather buggy. Actualy both Debian and Slackware got born because their creators got fedup with SLS.
Correct. MCC Interim Linux was the first linux distro.

From Gentoo to Suse! Ouch. My path was Slackware -> FreeBSD -> Gentoo and never got tired of compiling. Such is Unix.

Yep! Best learning distro ever. Actualy the first linux distro.

If you want a linux engineer to fix things up for you pick a Slackware user not an Ubuntu one.
First distro I ever used. And I kept using it until 2002. It warped me for good on the BSD file layout. Now I can only use Gentoo because of that. :)

And they call me anti-social next they are going to call me a communist.
Bring me that Jane Goodall chick!
better implemented product has to compete with the same feature set - you said it yourself - with a more established product.
Assuming they will be able to deliver anything, which they had a hard time anyway, after a mass defection. Good luck guys.
Quote fro the article: "the British volunteers received the most Nigerian scam e-mail" Maybe this is telling us something about Britain.
Mysql 6 will be the perfect example of Sun screwing up even more than before.

I think THEY are the problem.
