I am Belgian and I lived there for over 20 years (mostly as a kid and student but I worked there for a few months too). I have been living in the UK for over a year now.

I would be curious to see that. Any reference? My best guess is that he was fined because he wasn't really in control of his car (red light or not).
> Also , English is a third language here.
Since when? Official languages in Belgium are French, Dutch and German (all "localized" to varying extend compared to the original version). Most things available in the three languages are also available in English for foreigners' convenience but English is not an official language (yet?) AFAIK. However, most Belgian kids are taught English as a second language in school (at the loss of the two other national languages that are not their native one).
While I stopped bothering with politics long ago, I have the feeling Belgium is still relatively free only because all politics just keep fighting without ever reaching a proper consensus to be able to make things moving (in good or bad).
Some things that are different from the UK in my experience (some are good, some are bad): - people smoke in bars; - you can find bars open until the wee hours of the morning, no need to go clubbing or whatever; - taxes are higher; - public transportation is much cheaper; - accommodations (and general cost of life) is much cheaper; - salary is a bit lower; - proper food and beer (less of a junk food culture); - girls generally dress and act less slutty (and are less fat, see above); - there aren't five CCTV camera pointed at you constantly; - written press is generally less sensationalist (even if you just compare tabloids).
I believe that the problem with such a scheme is that it doesn't scale very well. I can't really imagine a company becoming very big selling only customized, paid by the hour support. Unless it becomes a consulting company.
The client sends a DHCPREQUEST packet that contains options it is requesting from the server. The server is then supposed to craft a DHCPACK packet containing values for the options requested by the client.
That's just in a PC application. Try refactoring the 'ugliness' out of an embedded system and see how long your employer still has customers, and how long you still have a job.
Nearly three months now. Some of my code should go into production within one or two months, I'll tell you how it goes:)
Nowadays, I tend to read eBooks with less(1) but I once used dictator. It displays the file word by word with speed adaptating to punctuation. It feels very strange to read text with it but it's not entirely unpleasing.
Rather, usually whats done is that most of the code is written in C, and only those parts that REALLY REALLY have to be optimized, like interrupt handlers for example, can be done in assembly.
(Part of) interrupt handlers are written in ASM rather than C because they have to mess with registers, not because of speed problems.

"A young lady was being raped and stabbed.
"And the sounds of her screaming got to this man and so he ran out into the street to get help from troops, to try to flag down a passing truck of them.
"He jumped up on the truck's windscreen and they shot him dead," Mr Banka said.

Sorry I gave the wrong URL. DHCP is described in RFC 2131. RFC 2132 only lists valid options. http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2131.txt

Actually, you can make a donation specifically to OpenSSH as said on the donation page.
http://openssh.org/donations.html
Of course most OpenSSH people are also OpenBSD people.
Could you please detail the process you went through to get the refund (and maybe give dealer's name)?

But I agree that you have a point.

Makes me remember this story.
Ever heard about ssh(1) and screen(1) ?
There are also at least two in-kernel httpd for Linux: TUX and khttpd but they don't seem to be used by much people.
Why would you store any password anyway ?
At least NetBSD and FreeBSD where mentors last year. I'm not even sure "Linux" was really a mentor.

BTW, you can connect to Jabber (and most IM services) through any IRC client.
Koders does that for some times now.
