Well, I do now that I paid for it - but I didn't prior to buying it. I had a "lite" version, which worked OK for a while, but did not have the "source" for any of the functions/features that the paid version has. After I bought the paid version, I was sent a copy of the full theme.
Regardless of how this GPL thing works out, it was money well spent. I could have slapped something similar together myself, but it would have taken me a while, so I'd much rather spend $50 and be done with it.
Luke Crawford is great - I used to have a virtual server hosted with his company, prgmr.com. You can feel pretty confident in your xen machine when the guy who maintains it literally wrote the book on it.
The junky 4gb ssd that came with my eee 900 died inside of a month. The 16gb OCZ SSD that I replaced it with has been going strong for a year now though/me crosses fingers
It can't be nearly as bad as the nextels I've had. Put that thing next to a speaker, have it ring and then tell me that you don't think it's giving you brain cancer.
silly me responding to an obvious troll, but..
It's not my site.
My fark account has not been banned.
This is the first time I've so much as mentioned bannination on slashdot, or any other forum for that matter.

Who's to say a turtle wouldn't enjoy a turtle jetski? Just because it's not for you doesn't mean it's useless.
It's BanniNation
Formed by a number of posters from fark who had finally had it with the way Drew runs Fark. It's a user-moderated fark-ish site, and IMO, has a much better community feel than fark does. It's nice being able to discuss a topic without worrying about the banstick coming down on your head.
I can't speak for all ISPs, but at least at the one I've worked at, it doesn't happen quite like that.
The mail server is backed up daily at a specified time. Any messages that happened to be in your pop mailbox at that time would be backed up. Lets say the backups are running at midnight, and you had just checked your mail before you went to sleep at 11pm. The only mail on the backup tape would be anything you had recieved between 11pm and midnight. The stuff that we're interested in backing up on the mail server, is not in fact the customers mail. We're more concerned with the config files, and the actual OS etc, so if the server was to die, we could ressurect it easily. We generally only keep backups for a week also. They're mostly for disaster recovery, and if there was a disaster, we'd want the tape from the previous day - something several months old would probably not help, unless the machine had been hacked and we hadn't noticed it for quite a while. In a situation like that, we'd actually prefer to rebuild the box from scratch anyway.

ATI Tray Tools (or a similar program) will let you underclock your video card too. Good for when you have a hulking gaming laptop, but aren't playing games, and don't want to use it as a space heater for your living room.
That's odd - I've had very good luck with Debian on Sparc. Perhaps I was using older hardware then you were. I've installed Debian with no issues on an old Sun Pizza Box (SparcStation II, maybe?) and a bunch of IPCs. I even had the IPCs netbooting debian off a NetBSD box for a while. This was all on Woody. The only problem I had was getting fdisk to do the Sun disk labels properly. I don't know anything about Mr. Kraffts books, but I found a quick howto via google, and it was right on the money.
Wonder how Microsoft feels about them knocking the release date back another 6 months. I was at the local EBGames recently, and they were mentioning how many people had already called to cancel their xbox360 preorders - and this was just a day or two after the delay was "discovered". I say discovered, because the publisher, Take 2, mentioned it on their financial statement, but it took a week and >45 200 post topics on the elder scrolls forum to choke a response out of Bethesda. Even then, their response was to sliently change the release date in the FAQ. Just in the past day or so the PR guy made a statement, but I think the damage has already been done. Knocking it back another 6 months gives me time to save up for some new hardware to run the PC version instead of buying the 360 like I had planned.
heh, kind of like Catch 22, but backwards. I haven't read it in a long time, but IIRC, they promoted "Major Major" to the rank of 'Major' just for the fun of calling him "Major Major Major"
Saves the movie studio bandwidth - then people downloading it are using other peoples bandwidth, and not generating cost for the studio. Thousands of people downloading a 100mb trailer can add up very quickly.

someone at my office ordered 10 of them about 3 months ago, and they did take a while to get here, but they showed up last week. Obviously, YMMV, but don't give up quite yet - they still may show up.

of course it's not a honeypot. What would ever make you think that?

As someone who just paid $50 for a premium Wordpress Theme, I find this post to be relevant to my interests!

Eve isn't "free" free, but you can pay for gametime with in-game currency, so once you get some money-making things going on, it becomes free.

Netflix somehow always knows when I've sent a movie back before it actually gets there. I always assumed the barcode was somehow related to that.
