Cancellation of the Avro Arrow project.

Incredibly short release cycle obsoletes software too quickly
So only update when there is a security or stability fix that effects you.
Poor package maintenance and broken builds are increasingly common
You should have very few packages on a server. (For me it's (Apache, SSHD, mod_php) or (SSHD, postgres) or (SSHD, OpenLDAP, Courier))
Compilation is stressful on hardware but performance benefits have not been proven
So maintain a local portage tree and build binary packages for distribution across your server farm. You only need to build each package once. You could even set up distcc if you expect to have spare cycles on some of your servers
USE flags have limited flexibility and are more of an annoyance than a benefit
Is there a way in Debian or commercial distros to tell Qt to compile with support for Postgres or MySQL so you can install Rekall on your desktops (without recompiling it manually)? Is there a way to tell Courier whether or not to include support for OpenLDAP, MySQL, or Postgres?
Wouldn't the optimum length of the trail depend on the speed of both the leading and the following car?
Imagine a tractor driving at night on a highway... The road studs light up for a few seconds after it passes, but if a following car is travelling at the speed limit, this may not be enough warning to change lanes.

I wasn't trolling. I thought this referred to the US penal code and we were assumed to know what 419 meant. As it is, it referrs to the Nigerian penal code, and we're just supposed to know what 419 stands for. At least where I'm from (not the US nor Nigeria) we call it the "Nigerian letter scam" or "Nigerian scam", or sometimes just annother annoying spam.
What's a 419 scam? Does this refer to some obscure US penal code number? I've recieved the Nigerian money-laundering spam letters, and it's variants, but I've never heard of it referred to as a 419 scam.
Have you read the HOWTO you've linked to? It requires you to install a kernel patched with the Linux Console Project changes, backported to the 2.4 series, and a modified X Server.
I keep reading this assertion that geeks have terrible personal hygene here on slashdot. Usually it's in a troll post. Of the hundred or so geeks in the upper level computer science progrm at my university I know of one who could be described as having a hygene problem.
Observations do not back up the assertion that geeks have poor hygene.
I have a generic USB keyboard with a scroll wheel. I expected the scroll wheel events would at least show up under/dev/input/event*, but it doesn't under 2.6<2.6.5 (tried them all including 2.6.0-test1, 2.6.0-test9, and 2.6.0-test11).
I didn't think the parent post was funny. I didn't think it was worthy of anything more than +1 informative though.
Umm... RFC 821... All it would have to do is search common mail client config files (plain text -- easy searching) for the outgoing mailsever and use and Perl Sockets to connect.

Not all of them have been common sense.

I wrote message #9500466. It seems the NPI list has been cancelled though.
You can buy the dye yourself at the pharmacy. it's called Blueing, and it works wonders for white clothes under natural or fuorescent light.
You can also buy detergent with light absorbing dye, it's called Dark Laundry Wash, and it seems to work.
I think perhaps a (finite) turing machine would be much easier. It would be simpler due to not needing random access memory.

Get a sense of humour.
Come to think of it, this applies to almost everyone who's replied to my post.
Actually, I was referring to Windows where you can't use your computer while it's updateing.
But you can't use your computer while it's going either.
I believe it's a cludgey microsoft variant of
"emerge sync; emerge -uD --fetchonly world; emerge -uD world; etc-update"
except that it requires you to reboot several times and repeatedly interact with it.
So only update when there is a security or stability fix that effects you.

My computer has every part replaced except the floppy drive since I got it (a used 286) in 1992.
Unless it's a snowy night (por visibility), when a tractor is quite likely to be traveling on a highway.
But if the leading vehicle is going 20Km/h, and the follower 100Km/h the follower will travel the length of the leader's trail in 1/5 of a second.
Wouldn't the optimum length of the trail depend on the speed of both the leading and the following car?

I just don't need it.

Perhaps this process could be used to make really dense SRAM... leading to solid state hard drives.
