    You have just made an example that software which eyeballs proactively looking for security holes is more secure. That is why OpenBSD stands out as one of the most secure OS.

    Busy eyeballs are better than idling eyeballs.

    The school can work around the law by disallowing plugging wireless equipments to school's power lines. Then the school can also ban power generators and large quantities of batteries.

    They fiddled with TCP, not HTTP. We do it all the time. Take TARPIT for example.

    Yes.

  14. Gentoo has that covered on Reduce C/C++ Compile Time With distcc · · Score: 1
    The portage system will use this feature automatically. Together with ccache, it can save considerable amount of time compiling large sources such as kde.

    One of the problem I have encounted is that distcc only works reliablely with homogeneous envirnment where each box has same version of gcc on the same platform. I have yet to find a way to make my Gentoo box work with my cygwin box.

    FYI, The items you mentioned are not in the Critical Updates section, which means they can only be installed manually.

    And you can always check the installation hisory on the Windows Update website, that is, if this can satisfy your desire to "know exactly what is being put on my system."

    If not, many people prefer glueing their eyeballs to the monitors to read every single compiler outputs from Gentoo emerges.

    Works like a charm.

    Since NT, MS has been using UCS-2, now UTF-16 for internal character encodings. When you install Windows 2000 or Windows XP, you will be asked if you want to install ~300MB worth of multilingual files such as fonts and nls tables. Microsoft has long been providing the developers Win32 API that uses Unicode, and implemented an Unicode API compatibility layer for the non-Unicode OS, Windows 98. It's well documented in Visual Studio and you can even write your application in a manner that simply "#define UNICODE" will do the trick. But nobody seems to care and only Microsoft produced applications utilized those feature.
