  1. Re:They could have been more specific on Mandriva Linux 2006 Released · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Why is everybody obessed with boot/shutdown times on Linux boxes? Thought the whole point of Linux was to avoid reboots.

    Bullshit. I have an XP box that's at almost 200 days uptime.

    It can be deleted or you can run Fluxbox or another WM. Stupid reason not to install a fine distro.

    Come on. Have you ever used OpenOffice? Think a bit and hearken to where in OpenOffice you cna save as Microsoft formats.

    And you lost credibility by talking about how Alienware configured XP for you on your little site.

    Agreed about the DMZ. Although as a sysadmin, I would not ever allow a gaming server on MY network.

  8. No big deal on Novell OpenSUSE Server Hacked · · Score: 1

    Looks like that SSH login/password brute force scanning attack that's been going for the past year or so. So some employees setup an easily SSH login on a gaming server? So what. Only part I can't figure out is why was the box public?

  10. Re:sorry freebsd, you are too late on FreeBSD 6.0 to Target Wireless Devices · · Score: 1

    Wrong. The hardware works with 2 methods. Either OpenBSD's method or FreeBSD's method. 2 minutes of Googling will let you know what card is supported for your OS before you go shopping next.

    What are you talking about? Oh, a flamebait AC, that's right. Probably one who's never installed FreeBSD or OpenBSD either.

  12. Re:sorry freebsd, you are too late on FreeBSD 6.0 to Target Wireless Devices · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The beautiful part is that OpenBSD is NOT in a competition with anybody despite what your post asserts. The OpenBSD developers have goals that are in line with their ideals and they haven't strayed from them and the developers certainly aren't out to "corner wireless development."
        You make it sound like 2 companies competing against each other when it's just FreeBSD's developers losing sight of their ideals and doing thing the easy, non-OpenSource way.

    Think it's throttled by the mobo. Regardless, it's too quiet for me to hear unless I press my ear against the case and i'ts tiny and fast. Combine that with 64 bit Linux and I'm a happy camper.

    You're right but the bomb factory nearby made it a terrorist hideout in my book.

    I don't think anybody's deluding themselves to the point that they think they're protecting MY freedom. And I'm not talking about a relative minority of Muslim countries, particularly women's right and freedom of press. As far as the cream of shits statement, don't all countries have good and bad people. Pretty nonsensical statement if you ask me. At least we're free to own kitchen knives and to defend ourselves here.

    when you can get a silent Athlon 64 in a tiny Shuttle XPC SN85G4. I bought one bundled with an Athlon 64 3000+ and it's quietest, fastest desktop I've ever owned. Suse justs hums along silently on this thing. The proprietary Shuttle cooling system is silent and effective. The DVDRW is the loudest thing on this system. Outpost.com is selling the deal I got for $379 Add memory, hard drive, CDROM, and the 64 bit OS of your choice (Suse is flawless) and you're in business.

    Right. And they're still stuck at the 11th century. Women aren't allowed to drive or be unaccompanied in public without a male "guardian." I'm sick and tired of hearing about Islam's great achievements a thousand years ago . Show me something now. Women's rights, a democracy, young men who don't go commit suicide and hold hostages at the beck and call of so-called religious leaders, something like that.
        I'm also sick and tired of hearing all about the "fundie christians" who "rule" America. Ever heard of "separation of church and state?" Invented here, buddy. How about the ACLU? How about "live free or die?" What about freedom of press being in our Constitution? You Europeans who criticize America and typecast all Americans need to stop getting all of your info from the TV and Internet and see America for yourself. Case in point.

    More like Iraqi taxidrivers being held for ransom to their families and being tortured. Ransom/hostage taking is a big business in Iraq.

    Since it's constantly up and down, here's the Google cache. Mostly rationalization of this or that execution, wild claims of uncounted tanks and helicopter kills, US atrocities, stuff like that. If you've read it once you don't need to read it again. Pretty bad propaganda.

    My little brother (Marine sniper) found terrorist hideouts complete with tortured Iraqis chained to bloddy walls and CDROMs laying around with .wmvs of said torture. Don't know about connectivity. Sure it was sneakernet.
