I know groupthink will mod him down, but if you are a good moderator, you'd mod this up. It is a good point about the lacking of creativity in the field of CS.
The livejournal servers are provided by Internap. Anyways, Bush just appointed Internap's CEO to his National Infrastructure Advisory Council (http://www.tmcnet.com/usubmit/2005/Jan/1104954.ht m), and i'm worndering, if this is some sort of terrorist attack, and then I thought, that is what they want you to think. Rather, it's jsut another step towards the republican squashing of the independant media. Perhaps, the republicans are following me. or you. They know that without live journal, the teenage adolecent girls will surely flock to forums, such as this one and post. The sheer amount of posts will crash another server, and therefore, we have a domino effect (also a technique used by the RIAA to crush peer to peer services, such as bit trorent, by causing more strain on a website not meant to handle it). So with livejounral going down like a Korean hooker, and Slashdot in hot pursuit due to the flock of teengirls, we will be unable to communicate our ideas. And without communication, the left wing majority of this website will be unable to unite and thus ensuring the republicans remain in power and control of the "free" world.
But it's very, very weak security. If yu ahve a small site, it would be alright, but if you have something that is totally serious and can not be sabatoged, I'd encourage you look at something else. My recommendation is e107. Easy to use, fully featured and has a developer community for it.
Well, if people don't care about HCI when they develop software and it has a very poor interface, it makes it hard to use. Likewise, I was wondering if they had any innovations to their desktop.
I used a an Atari 800XL to code. It was my first computer, followed by a Victor Computer. Then an 8086 Olivetti PC, with a whopping 10 MB drive (or so), that ran DOS and GeoWorks...and finally after much begging, I got my first 486...man, I was so glad to have a VGA display.
Give them technology as soon as they can handle it without breaking it...or if the break it it's fixable, or doesn't matter.
My father sent me to work programming in basic from textbooks when I was 4. I found this a wonderful thing, as I could make the computer do what I wanted. I learned syntax and other important elements of programming, and now as I write this, the computer has stuck with me ever since. This is why I'm a computer science major.
"Stable". Apt-get is beautiful. jsut type in what you want ot get and you ahve it. Dependancies are always wonderful with this because it deals with it automaticly. The problem is if you use the stable package, be prepared to wait years for a new version of your software. I usually say testing for my install, so my things are relatively current, but not totally buggy. Not really for a total linux newbie, but if you are smart enough to understand basic computer things, you coudl get by.
Mandrake:
URMPI is like apt get, but from what I noticed, not with as many packages. Its my distro of choice at the moment. Things (NFS, SMB, SSH) just work, with minimal setup. If you are migrating, it's the best for that.
Redhat:
Good for enterprize. If you want basic office stuff, this is the distro for oyu. If yu want something any more then what is already on the disk, be prepared for dependancy issues (I knwo there is apt-get, but package selection is limited). Circular dependantcies are a pain in the ass (you want to install A, but can't because oyu need B, but you can't install B because oyu need C, and you can't install C, becasue you need A)
Something else:
Lycoris is another "mirgration" type of linux. The install even has a solitarie game for oyu to play while you wait. It's all dumbed down...I found that to be very limiting.
Slackware was my "first" distro when I was a linux virgin..and I sure promise yo if oyu make that your first distro, you will feel like a virgin. Pain in the ass. I lost many harddrives due to it. Lucky for me, the drives were small 500MBish drives on a 486.
KNoppix. TRy it first. If you can familiarize yourself with knoppix, it helps reduce the risk to your system from a bad install, and you can muck around with it without killing anything important.
Gentoo. Ricer jokes aside, it's a good distro if oyu need a special custom configuration...say if oyu have a 64 bit processor or something, otherwise, be prepared to spend hours and hours compiling linux. (I haven't used Gentoo, but this is what I heard).
There are other distros out there, you will probably install linux several times before oyu find the one that works for you.
and then there is my boss, he keeps moving my desk and he took my stapler, it was a red swingline stapler and I like my stapler because it doesn't jam up like the botsch staplers, and I swear it's the last straw, if he moves my desk one more time I'm going to burn the place down. I swear it'sthe last straw...

Anyone who has set up a dual boot system like myself, does anyone know if 1.0.1 Windows settings will still be compatible with 1.0 in linux?
Let me be the first to say "Dvorak". look it up if you want information.

Considering that there are 5 more episodes for season 4, they say nothing about it on the news section of the site either.
I was really hoping for it to continue, season 4 is by far the best.

Are there any screenshots of this? What does it look like? Is it pretty? Does it have new features both usably, and visually?
Wow, a 4 year old graduated from medical school in 2003??? What colledge is this, I'd like to go there!
