  1. 5 words on More Star Wars Hype · · Score: 1

    South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut

    (ok, five words & an ampersand)



  2. Why not benchmark Linux webservers? on NOS Crossroads · · Score: 1

    Choose 1 general setup & switch between the available Linux webservers to see which ones perform better given different scenarios.

  3. Re:They've been slashdotted!!! on WCArchive sets new Record · · Score: 1

    As of 7:20 pm EST:

    Welcome to wcarchive - home FTP site for Walnut Creek CDROM.
    There are currently 3111 users out of 5000 possible.

    Doesn't look slashdotted to me.

  4. Re:Slashdotted? on wcarchive Upgraded · · Score: 1

    I've seen it maxed out a few times (at 3600 users). Don't know if that qualilies as having been slashdotted. Perhaps someone with a similar hardware/software/connection setup would allow a test?

  5. heh. not easy with... on RedHat 6.0 is Out · · Score: 1

    You *could* post the URL to your reply.

  6. GPL on Red Hat IPO Rumors on news.com · · Score: 1

    Just clone the installer (RPM *is* under the GPL).

    Does Mandrake use the Red Hat installer?

  7. Market value on Red Hat IPO Rumors on news.com · · Score: 1

    I wonder...how much is Red Hat worth? How will they determine its value? (I'm guessing they'll add up all the support contracts, etc. rather than look at software side of things). Despite what one poster stated, I think that's how Red Hat will make money (or at least break even...has Yahoo turned a profit yet?)

  8. GPL on Red Hat IPO Rumors on news.com · · Score: 1

    There would be nothing to stop someone from mounting the Red Hat CDs on an FTP server (remember the GPL?)

  9. Money talks on Red Hat IPO Rumors on news.com · · Score: 1

    I'm sure Bob Young will change his mind after enough armored trucks park outside of Red Hat HQ.

  10. Hard to find... on ESR and the MindCraft Fiasco · · Score: 1

    an impartial third party that can optimize both Linux *and* NT fairly.

  11. Slackware under "SOME OTHERS"?! on The Complete guide to Linux Distributions · · Score: 1

    That's funny...I've got plenty of power over the RH system I've telnetted into (it's currently set up as a DNS server). ANY distro gives you the power...you just have to choose to use it.

  12. Corel GNU/KDE/Linux on Corel Linux to be Based on Debian & KDE! · · Score: 1
    Manx cats *don't* have tails :P.

  13. What about the right tool for the job? on Ask Slashdot: Perceptions of Red Hat Software · · Score: 1

    Acronym!=abbreviation

    NASA=acronym
    NSA=abbreviation

    Of course, some terms could go either way (like LOL)

  14. What about alien? on Red Hat 6.0 · · Score: 1

    Can't that be used to convert to/from tgz/rpm/deb?

  15. MY MISTAKE! on Linux Advocacy Hurts · · Score: 1

    Why wouldn't it? Have you done any tests one way or the other? I suppose you have a 4-processor box just lying around.

  16. Even though digital audio is nice and all... on Public Enemy's Next Alblum Only Online · · Score: 1

    Is that a backhanded racial slur? FYI, I'm an "average" rap listener (at least to PE) and I have the resources AND the knowledge. And there's plenty of tutorials out there to follow on the web. Don't assume that just because someone is from another cultural background that they're not capable of undertanding technology (I've been palying around with, & using, computers for YEARS).

  17. va is for lovers...err intelligence on San Mehat goes to work for VA Research · · Score: 1
    http://www.varesearch.com/aboutva/h istory/index.html


    VA Research is based in Mountain View California (why the heck is it called VA Research? Anyone know?)

    Some tech firms actually headquartered in Virginia: AOL, Circuit City...umm maybe someone can come up with some better examples :).

  18. Late to the party. on 3Com to Develop for Linux · · Score: 1

    They (3Com) should be on their knees begging Donald Becker to come work for them.

    My guess is they'll take his code, post it on their website, & pat themselves on the back for "supporting" Linux.

  19. Porn??? on Doom Causes Kid to Kill · · Score: 1

    Porn on the Internet is responsible for the decline of Western civilization...didn't you know? (sarcasm)

  20. Yay DFC! on Quickielanche · · Score: 1

    Damn, I was gonna post about the DFC a couple days ago...great minds think alike :).

  21. List of Responsible Entities on Doom Causes Kid to Kill · · Score: 1

    I fully expect to hear someday that his parents will join in the lawsuit (after all, he was a victim too!)

  22. Can i? on Doom Causes Kid to Kill · · Score: 1

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/national/lo ngterm/gunfight/gunfight.htm


    Why take responsibility when you can sue someone? Now, I'm starting to sympathize with the tobacco companies.

  23. Check out Macmillan on USA Today on O'Reilly Covers · · Score: 1
    www.mcp.com

    They have some books available for free web viewing there. I wonder if people actually buy them?

  24. SyQuest went into Chapter 11 on 10+ Gig Removables? · · Score: 1

    Doubt they're coming back...I believe Iomega bought the rights to the technology :(.

    (Owner of a p-port SyQuest SparQ talking here)

  25. fsck.vfat ? on Using FAT32 with Linux · · Score: 1

    Does it exist? It would be nice to have the ability to check my vfat partition for errors (while running Linux).
