Grand juries are playthings in the hands of a DA. They do what he/she says. They want to go home (usually).
This is why I am very suspicious of indictments in general. They are so easy to get. I could get you indicted in a few days for just about anything by holding the grand jurors against their will in a room with a succession of boring 'witnesses'.
When drobbins left the first time, the distro headed toward the toilet and this situation does not improve things.
The Portage tree continues to have broken ebuilds in stable because of changes to the scripts. This puts the lie to the entire notion of 'stable'. Constant changes to syntax in scripts are also occurring. I don't see a damned good reason why 'emerge sync' is now deprecated, for instance. It worked fine for years before. What's the problem now?
If I have to hack theoretically stable ebuilds to get them to compile, exactly why aren't I just using LFS?
It all stinks of a lot of juvenile e-penis crap. This kind of thing just did not happen when drobbins was running Gentoo. The structure he put in place makes it just like Debian with the politics but with less concern for quality. The distro is doomed because i'm on the hairtrigger of moving all my boxes off of it after almost 5 years, which makes me think many people have done so already, and will do so.
A complete set of mirror image subatomic particles. The antimatter analogue to the electron is the positron, etc.
No you can't hold it. It annihilates matter when it comes into contact with it, releasing a burst of energy.
Theoretically the Big Bang created equal amounts of matter and antimatter, but we're wondering where the antimatter is...maybe whole galaxies are composed of it? There's no way to tell from the light - photons are the same whether generated by matter or antimatter.
Short of that, small amounts are created in particle accelerators and in the upper atmosphere, I believe.
Actually my brother used to bring home a 12-pack of Lowenbrau every night back in the late 70s-early 80s. I'd hang out in the basement with him drinking beer and he'd play me new stuff.
Later, I had a few friends who would bring over stuff that they found good and we'd do the same thing (but with better beer).
I'm starting to get a little old for that. I get recommendations from friends and I act on them still, but not as many, and not as good anymore.
It's not as different as you'd think. Sure, they waste money on doodads for the field but the back office gets about as much attention as it would in the private sector.
I know a US Army BG who would disagree with you about smartcards not working.
The only thing missing from the Macintosh platform is a recent copy of a good Exchange client. If such an animal existed, there would be no barrier to switching wholesale.
I can't play another FPS without feeling like i'm crawling. The original 1999 game translocator made it feel like you were running at super-speed while requiring skill to use and avoid dying. The odd telefrag made it that much more fun.
When he left, it was over. The good part about Gentoo is that it didn't suffer from the externally visible political BS that Debian did and does. Unfortunately, when he left, the structure he put in place resulted in pretty much the same thing. In addition, the quality of the stable tree is in deep decline, and changes to portage are regularly made that impact the ability to emerge packages successfully. When I have to start hacking ebuilds myself to get them to compile because of stupid upstream changes to portage, at that point LFS starts looking very good.
I think the grandparent's point was that they make money off of subscriptions, not retail boxes. So WTF did they cripple themselves by forcing a retail box purchase for each account?
Eventually everyone gets sick of a MMORPG, this should have been seen as a way to extend the life of the existing model for a few months or a year.
The parent post is correct, but neglects the salient point that when I was a kid (i'm 37), a valid response to the conditions noted would be to send the kid to a military school where they'd do the beating for you.
Yeah, those got tamed by the leftist social theorists too.
So basically we have to wait for the pathetic scum to kill innocents before we do anything about it. Great improvement. Kudos to the 60's crowd for doing us a real service, yet again.
I imagine if he'd written the patches to fix the problems they wouldn't have had any excuse not to accept them.
This stinks of self-promotion. Calling something a "Month of PHP Bugs" does nothing to improve PHP's reputation. It sounds spiteful, in fact.
Releasing an exploitable bug every day rather than just writing the code to fix it sounds really lame, too. The people being harassed by this are the people running PHP.
I bet a lot fewer people will be after this month.

This is exactly the technique district attorneys use when summoning you before a grand jury in a sensitive investigation.
No judge. No accountability. Gag order. I was under one for 9 months in 1992.
It's a 'feature' of the system, and if they can't do it this way, the US Attorney will do it for them.
It was actually the first few bars of "Rock and Roll" from "the Song Remains the Same".

As usual, Wikipedia is helpful.
It was too much painful truth for the moderator.

I certainly don't have time to listen to 100 bad tunes to find one good one.
I need filtering, or i'm just going to keep on listening to Zeppelin.

I'm guessing you didn't use it much in UT.

Paraphrased:
Wear badge between neck and waist level at all times when on premises.
Put card away when off-base.
Never use card as a civilian-side ID.
Spent 5 years living this.
Remember, that albatross called Itanium was the reason why Intel offered a weak spot to AMD in the first place.
No such animal exists today.
You're right, but if a date is a Julian, then it's an...integer. I try to store all dates as Julians for that reason.

I still run Gentoo but the days are numbered.
We have all the guns.

I went to one. I was a delinquent. It was educational. Suddenly the world has limits.
Why not, they did it. It certainly wasn't my idea.
Own up!
That was the word you were looking for. You can't handle it.
Leftist groupthink is pretty attractive to a spineless loser, though.

I don't think of it as a failure, it's simply representative of normal human behavior. We are mean creatures by nature.
A walker can be a lethal weapon if used correctly.
So why didn't he fork the project then? That seems like a legitimate excuse.
I imagine if he'd written the patches to fix the problems they wouldn't have had any excuse not to accept them.
