Interesting, seems to make sense - would that also be the reason copying to/from windows network shares seems to take forever on a 'doze box compared to, say, sftp or nfs? Or is the network stack also hobbled?
(Forgive my ignorance of ntos internals, its been a while!)
Interesting, considering that just last night I was watching a documentary, on BBC4 no less, about rare earth theory and how miraculous it was that the conditions on earth are as they are.
Funny but, I couldn't shake the feeling that the reason conditions here on earth are so 'perfect' for life as we know it was more to do with life as we know it evolving to fit the conditions...

There's also other geek parents out there that know exactly where you are coming from. well said.
I see no myminicity link. In fact the only myminicity links I see are when I go to your "scremyminicity" website, which asks people to put a 'redirector' in which then links to myminicity, in an effort to "punish" them with traffic.

The slashdot audience might be largely pro-open source, which indeed may render your statement true. I am not sure you can apply that same label to slashdot itself as a corporate entity.
What I find interesting is that, if as you say, slashdot were indeed bastions of open source, that they are creaming in ad dollars from their 'enemy'?
Actually, I just realised that I have legs. I use them for many things such as walking about.
I consider myself an advanced walker, and I don't need to take the bus.
In fact, the only things that it would probably get quicker for me by spending the extra money is likely the 13 mile trip to work each day, and the visit to foreign relatives 64 miles away (who I rarely go and see). I'd rather use the extra money to buy my daughter a picture of me so she doesn't forget who I am because I spend 8 hours a day comp^Hmuting.
Buy some ram dude! sure you don't *need* it, but think of the children!

In a move unanimously hailed by the trade press and industry analysts as being a sure sign of incipient braindamage, Linus Torvalds (also known as the "father of Linux" or, more commonly, as "mush-for-brains") decided that enough is enough, and that things don't get better from having the same people test it over and over again. In short, 2.4.0 is out there.
Amen. The sooner the PHB's realise that they are the only ones clock watching the better.
I work damn hard and get things done when they need to be which means morning, noon, night and weekends so when I goof off on slashdot every now and again when things aren't so busy I dont expect wisecracks about how "IT people are all the same they never do any work"
I submitted an overtime claim last month for 130 hours. Not because I want the money (well ok maybe a bit... kaching!) but because these idiots seem to be getting the impression that there is nothing wrong with the level of resourcing in the department, despite me raising concerns and providing detailed projections of what needs to be done and what its going to take to do it. Hopefully this will open a few eyes.

Slashdot Mirror
my bet is that they are re-skinning some "New Technology" they are involved with!
Surely that makes vista "Windows XP-ME" ?
more importantly (re: your sig) who would ever need a slashdot post number over 2,147,483,647!
brrr, cold!

i heard it was more like just over 9000

In my experience windows runs faster on vmware full stop. Whats *that* about?

wii changes the whole meaning of "video game", and for the better in terms of this discussion. my 3yo loves it
Oh the memories, it was also extremely useful for playing with whilst waiting for games to load on tape - very theraputic I recall. Good times!
Indeed, but in this thread? Maybe I wasn't looking hard enough.
who exactly are you talking to?
I see no myminicity link. In fact the only myminicity links I see are when I go to your "scremyminicity" website, which asks people to put a 'redirector' in which then links to myminicity, in an effort to "punish" them with traffic.

Sounds very similar to claims made about wikipedia.
If http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v438/n7070/full/438900a.html is anything to go by I suspect web 2.0 maps will have just as many (few?) errors as the dead tree counterparts.

i hate when i think up a real funny joke and then /shark finds a result. now all i'll get is offtopic.
yeah well *my* three year old daughter does all that on linux, (uphill. both ways!) ;)
I slouch corrected. All the more pleasure to be derived from knowing that MS are funding OSS. Good on them I say!

I do believe Professor Morairty already did (will do?) this ...!
