  1. Help SCO employees escape the madness! on Getting Over the Stigma of a Previous Job? · · Score: 1
    A SCO job is better than no job.

    As the sole provider for my wife and two little boys, and as one who is currently looking for permanent employment, I have to agree with that.

    All this talk about whether one would diss an applicant because s/he has SCO on their resume, and we're forgetting that these people may be trying their hardest to escape to a more ethical employer, and can't afford to abruptly quit. Shouldn't we lend a helping hand and give them kudos for having the sense to put SCO behind them?

  2. Re:soft intro on Interview with Mandrake Linux Founder Gael Duval · · Score: 1

    Knoppix is cool for getting a feel for what Linux can do, but it's too safe to experiment much if you want to learn what's under the hood. I know I don't feel entirely comfortable with an OS until I know I can break it in a variety of ways and then fix it again. Mandrake has been great for me because it works well enough to get some work done while I plug away on my list of "improvments" when I have the time.

  3. Why bother... on Roadside Assistance System Used for Eavesdropping · · Score: 1

    The crooks of interest to the FBI aren't driving Caveliers and Hyundais.

    Until now, I guess.

  4. Re:Environmental Hazards of Physical shredding on Is Your Banking Information Accidentally On Ebay? · · Score: 1

    Why do the platters need to be pulverized to be sufficiently unreadable? Seems to me a good couple of whacks with a sledgehammer would do the trick. Is it possible to piece the disks back together into a readable whole?
