I am just curious. Unlike CDs, DVDs you have to watch with a high amount of attention. That is, besides stuffing your face or working out (that's both ends of the fatness spectrum), you cannot do anything else during the DVD play. CDs you can listen to during almost anything you do (work, sports etc...).
Where does your room mate find the 150 to 300 hours to watch the DVDs?
Simply put, Java is a language to write programs and scripts connect programs.
If I want to script from a Java program, I call ascript using Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd).
The de-facto scripting languages are Bourne shell or Perl. Most scripters can read/maintain these. Only very reluctantly I will write scripts in any other language than these. As a very strict rule, anything I cannot do in Bourne, I do in Perl.
What makes Java very unsuitable for scripting is the absence of a Posix package. Setting ownership and mode of a file is a pain. Don't even think about hard and symbolic llinks, let alone Unix devices.
but it still took the police almost 50 years to catch him

To the guy that modded me Troll: You probably never heard of the term editor war.
My posting was referring humorously to this war, adding Notepad to it. An Overrated mod I would have understood slightly better.
Hey guys, don't forget NOTEPAD.EXE, It's the default editor on Windows just like vi is on Unix. And it gets better every version of Windows. I believe the 32k byte limit is now definitively abandoned. (For me that's just frivolous as I strong believe no C program should exceed 8 screens.)
Why are we hiding from the police, daddy?
They use either vi or Emacs, son, and we use NOTEPAD.EXE.
I own a D-Link Ethernet ADSL modem and guess what, the local IP adress is fixed to 192.168.0.1. Nope, no changing that thing. If I had known beforehand... I had to completely renumber my network. I only had 8 NICs and two LANs but was pissed off nevertheless.
Fighting global warming is easy. More concrete in your foundations. Better roofs. New ways to drain water. New ways to transport water where it used to be....
Reverting global warming is the tough bit. Imagine a warmer house in summer. Imagine the end of SUVs. Imagine higher prices for energy. Imagine eating less meat etc...
How may -US and non US- people will draw a line at the SUVs, thinking they've done enough?
Study NIS, NFS and automount. These form the holy trinity on which Sun built its huge success in the 80s.
NIS on Unix is like domain controller concept on Windows. Nowadays there are LDAP based information services but the concept remains identical. One central administration of all users and all information available over the network.
NFS on Unix is like SMB file sharing on Windows.
automount on Unix is like automated Windows drive mapping. Only much better.
For user controlled mounts, read fstab(5), mount(8)

You probably mean: "So just don't like me". Don't worry, I got that immediately;)
My brother in law once made a door bell which opened the door if the right ringing combination was givven in a specific rithm. Worked great but had a minor flaw that if the bell rang 30 seconds the door would open anyway. That wasn't a problem as nobody would have tried. The neighbors started hating him when he started using the flaw as a feature when he came home too drunk to be rithmical.
>>which consists of 70 minutes of Eben Moglen, with 20 minutes worth of interruptions from Stallman.
>You address Eben Moglen by his full name and then addresses Richard Stallman with much less respect.
Although I agree on respecting people, I must say that apart from that, full name followed by surname only sounds better.
PS: Also, the word RESPECT is nowadays often abused by small-minded bums that interpret it as "You
surrender to me. Absolutely. No tedious questions asked. Onece, you might become almost just as cool as I am.
And don't make jokes about my slang 'cause I'll waste you. That's a good fella." That deteriorates the word in modern language.
This guy mailed this stuff to the newspapers, that's why he's in trouble.
If I were a USA citizen, I'd not count on the trias politica. Are you really thinking that reporting the case to the police is the best honest option? Chances are the information will 'vanish' or at least be weakened down before it reaches the public. The People have a right to know about election fraude and "breaking" one law in order to report a heavy crime is perfectly acceptable.

What is the model of your ADSL router? Never met any device from D-Link with unchangeable IPs...
DSL-300G+. It's not a router but a modem.

I disliked the purple color of the Gamecube because IMO it was childish and ugly. It's only out of supply reasons that I got a purple one.
... and boy do I like the Nintendo games.
Then I played on it
Now I hope the Revolution comes in purple.
