So they go for the closer target to get some press. Kino.ru/so/ir/kp will likely be available any day now.
Ok, but law did the 'closer target' break?
It's just that if there wasn't a good legal case, there's no good legal reason the police couldn't come and raid my home either, even if I'm not breaking any law. So that makes me feel some empathy with the raidees, making millions doing shady stuff or not.
i'm interested in (getting into) your line of work. (Scientific/number crunching software.) I'd be grateful if we could chat a little about what you're up to and what it's like. Perhaps you could drop me a line? beng@few.vu.nl.
I think the only significant benefit to sudo is that you can give users root access, without giving the root password, and take it away again without changing the root password.
It's more sensible way of authenticating: authenticate with your own password, authorize (or not) with sudo. authentication != authorization.
That said, I don't mind su for a system with very few root users and always use sudo as 'sudo -s':).
As sibling said, that starts a *new* process as neil, your old root shell is still there.
For the scenario you describe, exit your root shell to get back to neil, or use 'suspend' if your shell supports it so you can 'fg' back to root if you want.
A particularly nasty vim change is that Indeed, i've been bitten by this a few times. Worse is: the redo will be seen as an edit, so all your undo's could be lost. I like finding an old piece of text by doing undo, yank, and redo, but the redo will break if you edit after undo of course. Perhaps vim is clever enough to store the whole tree of redo's/undo's - would be a great feature i guess - but I didn't look it up, just cursed vim that it ate my work, something that could have been avoided by doing the sensible thing: don't change such fundamental behaviour by default.
I liked reading your reasoning on vim - especially the "Hell, even using the arrow keys to move around is a needlessly inefficient waste of motion, since the arrow keys are usually far from any other useful key on the keyboard," as that's exactly what i was thinking. Then I used 'j' and 'k' to try to scroll up and down accidentally;)
Excuse me? Electromagnetic fields interfering with the brain? Never heard of this. Not of people sitting near MRI machines, sitting near powerful radio transmitters, etc. What are you talking about?
Ok, I admit Xerox and Hoover aren't dead, but they're not the top dogs in their field by a long shot, so in that sense they haven't "won."
I guess this discussion is doomed to fail given how vague fucking something up is.. Somethings tells me you'd like to see it mean 'not winning,' in which case your original point is unassailable;-)
Nonsense. There is such a thing as 'first mover advantage,' but it doesn't mean you'll win if you don't fuck it up. There are countless counterexamples. Who uses a Xerox photocopier, a Hoover vacuum cleaner, the Altavista search engine, etc.?
Aha, I was surprised at NASA's use of "Now open to the public in a searchable, linkable format." - I thought, well, that's mighty brilliant of you to realise how good that is, and why didn't you do it in the first place;-).
It would be wonderful to be able to hear the audio linked with the quote / range of time on spacelog.org. Actually that's what I hoped this was.

Yes, good idea, and run that logic on the server side.
Running malware doesn't need any special privileges. Nothing to do with being rooted.

And yes I coppied and pasted "homophone"

laffer curve.
one of my coworkers was inordinately proud that her boyfriend was a stripper/escort, and somebody lost a tooth in a brawl in the employee break room.
Those two things sound pretty cool actually ;-)
Which secret department did you get when you pressed 4 :-) ?

Grow up.

You're missing the point - writing them is the easy part. If the problem is suitable. It's just too easy to get into an unmaintainable mess.

"Christians in Egypt are in a pretty bad situation"
That's not what I heard when I was on holiday there. The Christian minority holds a disproportionately large fraction of powerful positions.
Even if I trusted your average study; which I don't; this one would still be meaningless in the context of zodiac/horoscope discussion.
I don't think so; I have sigs turned off and still see it. And indeed offtopic. So it's spam, imho.
How was your interest in the scientific processes caused ;-) ?
