Exactly, she just proclaimed to the world that she is a neglectful parent. When I was growing up (in Toronto, Canada) my parents would not let me watch stuff like this at a young age. They may have found it funny if it were on, but I was to young to watch ythings like this.
It didn't matter that I couldn't watch certain shows because my parents spent lots of time with me and the rest of my family, even though they are both in the medical profession.
When I was old enough to know the difference I was allowed to watch what I wanted, and do pretty much what I wanted, within reason.
When parents spend time with their kids, teach them respect, and give them respect no kid will need therapy for the "they-killed-kenny" syndrome.
Has she taught her child to make the right choice - like, turn off the T.V. or change the channel. Choice is a wonderful thing.
Or is she like Homer when it comes to not having any t.v. or beer.
Do this next ditty with a Homer Simpson zombie voice.
"Must watch South Park -- have no choice -- must watch Kenny being killed -- must bow to T.V. god -- must kill -- must kill -- must kill"
About the Vhip - if you do not have the money - then lock the tv in a frickin' room and be more creative toward parenting.
There are stupid people everywhere. In Canada, the U.S., Europe. Where you're from should not make a difference in most cases.
>Now I understand why they bashed Canada so bad in >the movie.
That is a general comment, from a general-minded person.
Living in a very southern part of Canada I get a chance to spend a fair amount of time with a lot of American friends, who by the way loath the stereotypical f$ckup that you are.
Instead of giving a short pathetic statement like that, then impart upon us what system could handle dynamic web pages of such magnititude. Remember Microsoft NT touts static web page performance, but crashes and burns on dynamic web page serving.
Do you know the difference...probably not. Ohhh the gloves are off. En garde!
BTW ask Rob Malda et all how many pages, not hits, but pages this sucker deals with.
Ohh, and one more thing. That is the dumbest comparison - apples and oranges.
The Internet grows at a phenominal rate...hmm I wonder how much the load a nuclear power plant increases in comparison to the growth of the internet (in the same time span)
Just in case you reply to this, and just in case you tout Microsoft (please don't - it shows your a monkey sys admin that likes your work done for you) please remember Hotmail.
Maybe the Slashdot crew should run their system on an OS of your choice, oh wise all-knowing-one. Do you have a choice they could use, or did you just throw a comment out without thinking that you would have to come up with a better alternative.
Mr anonymous user...get a userid, log in and show yourself. >-) Ppppplease
Linux has numerous benefits such as a whole myriad of ditributions to fit many people's tastes. If you do not like RedHat, go with Debian, SuSE, Mandrake, Slackware, etc. That is the beauty of it...choose what you want.
The FreeBSD End:
To update FreeBSD all you have to do is CVSup to the current development branch and go have a beer, or two, or three and wait while it updates the sources on you system. Once that is complete, you go to "/usr/src" and then type "make world"
Which compiles all the sources and installs them.
What about config files? They are not installed, but put in the src tree for you to pick and choose some or all to update your system.
How many of us hate when RPM'ing something screws up your configs (mind you that usually is not the case by using RPM properly, or by backing up your configs).
What about apps - as the article states, go to the ports collection and you will probably find the same package that RedHat, Mandrake, etc. have to offer.
Sometimes FreeBSD ports offer a newer version over Linux, and sometimes not. But the number of ports is approx. 2559. I consider that fairly large.
I run Linux and FreeBSD as "mirrors" of one another and keeping the serverpackages on par with one another is easy.
Finally, long before the current Linux distro's of today, FreeBSD had a very clean and simple install.
The Linux End:
Well this one is shorter, becasue most of you know its benefits. Despite the problems with RPM it does make life easier when you have a whole bunch of apps to change.
I have also found that systems based on RPM allow you to change the core pieces of the distribution more easily than FreeBSD.
That is not bad on FreeBSD's part- it is just different, and sometimes better. I have seen people RPM a machine to death, but that was their choice.
IN the same vein, Linux has more choices about how you run your distibution. And most people never have a pristine system. It is usually their own hybrid. Something that works for them. A piece of contrib here, a piece of source compiled package there, and a smidgen of my own secret sauce. mmmmmm food. Oh yeah back to this topic.
FreeSBD has more (not complete)control over its core packages and lets you have fun with the ports. Basically FreeBSD says "/usr... is mine. You go play with/usr/local and the others."
Which is fine by me most of the time.

All in all, the Linux distro's and FreeBSD are just different. Some would say one is better than the other. That is the beauty of choice, it is yours to make and your right (I honestly think it is a priveledge and that we are getting too greedy, forgetting the hard work that goes into these systems - look at the alternative - Micro&*%! - shudder)
The Linux and BSD camps have given us an alternative, away from the binds of Microsoft et all, and are alternatives from each other.
My CYA bit: There are omissions in this (CVS and Linux). Becasue I did not include something does not mean either distrobution is missing or incapable of it. I just have to get back to hacking, and wish I had more time to compose an article that all of you could so lovingly poke holes in;-)
This is not ment to be an all-ecompassing discussion. That is the role Slashdot plays...cool.
Doesn't inlining of code occur at such a high optimization number - mind you I noticed that MySQL does this anyways...so at least this is half the problem - time for Apache - heh heh.
We deploy cross platform solutions and have a lot of business converting sites form NT to Linux or FreeBSD. NT...fast...hmmm???
I have seen NT systems that were installed by very well known companies. They were run basically out of the box and had numerous problems, including the BOD, on a mail server running Exchange.
Everytime I compare FreeBSD/Linux uptimes with any Microsoft solution (even at different,unrelated sites), the former always wins.
We are currently using multiple Sendmail servers with the same MX priority. If one server is down / overloaded another is chosen in its place.
You must mount the mail spool directory across all participating servers. Mind you if the server that is exporting the/var/spool/mail directory goes down no server can receive mail until the NFS share is available again.
There is another Sendmail solution my collegues and I are working on that will update all/var/spool/mail directories on each server without the need for NFS mounting (using a custom / modified local mailer program that prevents loops and cascades mail to all spool directories).
Hope this helps, and for your own sake avoid Exchange - the license issue will kill you alone.

Interesting idea...
A great line about Canadians inventing the phone first goes like this...
"How come we know we created the phone first?
That day we called the U.S. and nobody answered"
Just having a bit of fun, as I am sure the original U.S. poster was, or hope.
Besides, nobody could be that ignorant / stereotypical...could they? Hmmm, I wonder.
