Anyone know when that is going to be added. I remember seeing some posts about getting started on it on the developer mailing list after 1.4 was released, but I don't see mention of it.
That's all fine and dandy until the virus mutates into some uber-efficient cyborg, hacking its systems and improving co-operation with all the other cyborg virus cells in your body. Finally broadcasting straight into your ear "resistance is futile..." and, what's that? Oh nano-particles, not nano-bots? Bummer.

Artists have given breakdowns of the economic side to siging with the RIAA. You give the copyrights of your music to the studio (look at CDs and notice that barely any from RIAA studios attribute any copyright to the artist). The studio lends you money for studio time. The studio promotes the album and a subsequent tour. You raise money through ticket sales and CD/merchandies sales at the concerts. You use that money to pay off the original loan for studio time. Royalty payments go to the copyright owner, which is the studio, so the artists make very little. The whole point is to get the promotion, which gives you better income from touring. Once you have money, you can sign with a label that lets you keep the copyright. The business-smart artists create their own label, and sign other bands, because that's where the real money comes from. Copyright is for, I believe, 70 years after the artists death, thanks to the Sonny BonoCopyright Extension Act, so having the copyright on the songs means a revenue stream for decades.

i don't entirely get it either, but a paladin is basically a religious knight. I'm guessing it's implied somewhere that the religion must be a Christian one.
sell you some blankets with some neat virus as secret bonus.
I agree with the overall point your making, but the spread of European diseases to the Americas wasn't exactly intentional. Nor was the spread of syphillis from the Americas.
No longer will you be able to just slip a Linux CD (Knoppix for instance
I know you said for instance, but Knoppix, Gnoppix, and now Mandrake (the only popular live-cd distros I know of) are all produced in Europe. The Debian installer up front says 'do you want to install non-free/non-us software?' I know the debian installer sucks, bu access to legally shaky (in the U.S.) software is not one of it's shortcomings.
Nevermind that the easiest way for Linux to automatically establish a network connection would be to read the FAT disk and see what settings Windows(r) is using...
Uh, wouldn't the easiest way to set up networking be to check for a NIC, and if found try to get a DHCP lease?
Wasn't Roddenbery still around for some of DS9? I presented another example of inconsisctency from voyager, but both those shows were written by Brannon/Braga. So retentive fans would conclude that the DS9 clip is right, and Enterprise and Voyager pulled a Lucas. But those would probably be the same fans who bitch about the Enterprise in Enterprise looking more advanced than the Enterprise in TOS.
Except that in Voyager the half Klingon girl (Torres?) gets taken to Klingon hell on the Barge of the Dead, piloted by the first Klingon, who has the cranial mountain range. God I need to get out more.
I'm still wondering how this will affect the Linux kernel, since it has support for FAT file systems. I wonder if Linux is going to have to drop the support, of if we'll be able to slip in under the "interoperability" loophole.
That's easy. Red Hat will not include the precomiled module in their binary kernel packages, but 40 new sites will pop up with incompatible RPMs of the module for various kernels. Debian will probably move it to a separate set of packages in non-free or non-US. Mandrake and Suse will do fuck-all, since they're in Europe. Gentoo users will say 'what's a binary package?' and continue compiling it into their kernels. Slackware users will say 'tgz kicks ass, dependencies are teh sux0r.'
i'm ok with paying them for access to the software (os and updates), i just dont want to pay for each computer i want to install the os on. that is unless, of course, i'm going to update each computer from their server, but this isnt necessary for us.
There are several methods. Pay a subscription for one machine, have it `up2date -df` ever hour or every night or whatever, then have a cron job ship those downloaded RPMs to a local server that the rest of the machines will update from. You can set up a local yum or apt server and have nightly cron jobs. The alternative is to not register any machines, and grab the SRPMs from ftp.redhat.com (all RHEL errata is freely available as SRPM, always has been) and build it yourself, again pushing it out to a local server, be it nfs, smb, ftp, http, apt, or yum.
I think Fedora would be a frustrating choice. There is no commercial support for it, and it will undergo major releases twice a year. I don't know anything about Suse, other than their educational licensing might be cheaper than Red Hat's. Is $50 a year per server really too much? I forget if RHEL 3.0 is based of RHL 8 or 9, but either way, it's very user friendly.
It's mostly due to trademark issues, but partly due to includind non-GPL software as others have indicated. The artwork (the bluecurve metatheme) and logos are trademarked. My understanding was that redisitributing exact copies was fine, but some people were distributing modified CDs which were still branded as Red Hat Linux. The trademarks were then used to force people to either strip the trademarked stuff and rename it (hence pink tie linux on cheapbytes) or ship unmodified cds.
In what way? Other than it just being one box I can't think of anything. The Debian people were able to detect the situation and state with a fair degree of certainty that the package archives were intact too. The Debian team's forensics led to the discovery of the local root kernel exploit (with aid from Red Hat and Suse). Not quite sure if there's something I'm missing.
Slashdot Mirror
So some enterprising hacker buys a copy, decrypts it with the studios public key, and disitributes the decrypted content.

There will be no Fedora 1.1, just like there was no 8.1 or 9.1. The next release, in about 5 months, will be Fedora 2.

I always heard it was with a barometer, rather than a pen.
How can you use Perl if freeware isn't allowed?
And you don't think that is part of the problem?

but how how how would you do involve them?
i'm retarded, i totally missed the 'over' in that sentence.
Huh?

uh, $5 a month == $60 a year (5 * 12 = 60).
