These things are too small to fit an X and a live filesystem on it. I don't quit understand why live filesystem isn't so popular. It's is the best demo format on any machines. Usually what I do is, pop a slackware 7 CD in a windows machine, boot from the CD, quickly configure network and X, then run X. Slow as it is, I still can demostrate netscape, and sometimes staroffice over the network.
For rescue, tom's root and boot disk is pretty darn good, and you can make one anywhere.
for those claimming it's balanced.. well in this case it is.but I think you havn't seen thier samples like www.shapecd.com. they have quite a lot of unballanced shapes. However. I doubt if there's any influence because the force of gravity is simply to small compared to the torque.
Geee I don't know. You need a "FACE-EXPANION SURGERY" to make that effect look good. It's gona take a lot of money to get your face look like a flat panel.
My box is "user selectable GUI set and wm." easy. just give them X with xterm no windowmanager and ask them to type thier own after logging in. Or, some would just set the environment var. or just write a script to do so. what is the problem?
Users do not need to worry about these things AT ALL. they are users. they use them. Administrators are the one who has to worry about these. you got it wrong from the beginning.
That's a load of crap. Let's do an experiment, put a clueless person on a Linux box and put another clueless person on a windows box. put another complete clueless person on terminal.
if they are all mountainmen, I guarentee you that they have just about the same trouble learning stuffs. You, sir, are one of the mountainmen who were trained in MacOS.
i am a visual artist and I do not think Enlightenment is prettier than WindowMaker or BlackBox. If you consider SIMPLICITY an ugly thing, you are mistaken. I suspect that you simply like things that you are more familiar with.
Apple people... you have never realized the problem with Apple because you don't want to know the truth. Apple is not a peice of art. period. 20 years of UI design under apple's belt, how does that compare to 30 years of networking and multi-user design under unix's belt?
as a hard core typogragher fan, I feel that antialias is only a solution to raster image processing. printing. but it is not good for CRTs because it tempt your eyes to try and focus while it is imposible to do so.
I think the best way is to email flood pckeyboard.com to make a buckling spring version of spliters. Another solution would be find a northgate spliter. although, personally i have no problem with my wrist.
Just tell Cartman, don't ask your mother to fsck herself.
Did you know that, this movie was originally namely "(something) from Hell" and the censorship would not let the word "hell" to slip through.
Their solution: "bigger, longer and uncut." is 100 times nastier. I expect that these guys are going to pull something "perfectly legal" but "extremely nasty."
Look, I said it's a "wish", not a "demand"(bitch). I also mentioned right away that I do not think all software needs to be GPLed. The only reason I'd like to see the source is that the compiler I wrote was really broken.
The truth is, No matter what software is it, Someone in the community is interested in it, and naturally would wish for a source code. It does not necesarily mean anything "political." It has something to do with the natural curiousity of a science person. It also has something to do with porting it to other platform. I agree that "demanding" for a GPL is bad, but there's nothing wrong with "wishing" for one.
By the same token, you are "demanding" us not to be curious, instead of "wishing" us to give software company a break. Plus you have completely underestimated/.'s world class broken moderation system. Shame on you.
Wish I have the Source Code? This one actually matters.
But than again, I don't think every program has to be GPLed, or freed. It seems that lately, the underdog software companies tend to make thier software free. Good for them.
I really appreciate Mr. Gore's stance in the MS anti-trust lawsuit, especially when he was questioned before a mob of MS employees.
As you know, we geeks are very facinated by Mr. Gore. Questions: What is his favorate protocol? Which does he like better, zero or one? What error recovery measure does Mr. Gore have, in dealing with his software or hardware failures? What is his downtime record? What is his painting algorithm? (fractals?)
but seriously, please kick some conservative ass for us,

Geez... Thanks for nuthin.
I'm glad that he's stuck in the airport tho. Katz at Geekpride... *shudder*
Textmode install today,
Textmode install tomorrow,
and Textmode install FOREVER.
Thank you Patrick for the floppy friendly distro. otherwise my laptop wouldn't have made it.

IBM's S/390 is. absolutely. there's more than UNIX out there.
wow. emacs? FreeBSD?
hard core!

most people will take something that works instead of something that looks pretty.
I know i switched from Windows 3 years ago because I want NextStep-like interface, yes windows could do that but it crashed like hell.

antialias is not good for your eyes. zoom in!

What do you see in the crystal ball?
1000 CPUs. 500 of them each serving thier dumb little SunRays. 20 of them serving web contents. I see network congestion and a bankrupcy.
moral of the story: Yes, you got 1000 CPUs. Can your I/O handle it?

We drunken admins resent that. No distro can replace out jobs!

I thought the main problem was that LCD's needs lots of circuits around the display panel. (wires for each pixel.)

Microsoft Windows2000 searches for DeCSS on your hard drive and send your ip directly to MPAA's lawyers.
Nah, MPAA won't be able to afford it.
