No, the GP was correct Some Anglicans accept the doctrine of transubstantiation, all Orthodox accept it (though they use differernt terminology to express more or less the same idea), but Lutherans do not accept it.
"Names convey meanings; our choice of names determines the meaning of what we say. An inappropriate name gives people the wrong idea. A rose by any name would smell as sweet - but if you call it a pen, people will be rather disappointed when they try to write with it. And if you call pens "roses", people may not realize what they are good for. If you call these people Crackers, that conveys a mistaken idea of their origin, history, and purpose. If you call them GNU/Crackers, that conveys (though not in detail) an accurate idea."
I'm curious: if you're not interested in something as "low end" as systems administration, then why would you be interested in a Slashdot discussion on VMware and BSD jails?:-)
And nobody's asking you to memorize what LTSP stands for. Just double-click the text in Firefox, right-click and choose search. So much quicker and more effective than asking everyone to spell out abbreviations. It's a win-win!
Welcome to Slashdot, "News for Nerds". You may find that its readers tend to use lots of initialisms, acronyms and computer slang, especially when discussing computing issues. If you like everything spelled out and linked for you, then you might prefer to read CNET instead.
BTW (by the way), CNET doesn't appear to stand for anything but CNET.:-)
Eastern Orthodox Christians don't normally use the word "transubstantiation", but they also believe that the substance of bread and wine is changed into the substance of Body and Blood in the Eucharist, and that the transformation is not merely symbolic.
Why not just switch to another ISP? Nobody is forced to use BT.
In some parts of the UK, especially in rural areas, BT is indeed the only provider. I can't imagine how they manage to sell any broadband at all in urban areas where there actually is competition: they're quite expensive, and their support is shockingly awful.
The concept of income redistribution is never a moral basis for a tax.
And if the majority of voters in a democracy disagree with this categorical assertion, as they have in the United States and around the world, what then? Secession?
And if the majority of editors on a Wikipedia article do not uphold your politically conservative viewpoint, what then? Secession?
>They pay the same percentage in sales tax as the rich. The rich don't get a free ride. The poor aren't treated unfairly. In amount, the rich pay a lot more than the poor, simply because they buy more. Except in Oregon, where nobody pays any sales tax.
I believe the GP poster was referring to the percentage of their income paid by the poor for sales tax, not the percentage rate of the sales tax itself. For a better illustration of why this is regressive, have a read of the parable of the widow's offering in the Bible. Oregon doesn't levy sales taxes because sales tax is regressive by design, since it charges everyone the same taxes on the basics that everyone must buy in order to survive. A moral case can be made for a uniform rate of sales tax on big-ticket luxury goods, but not on food, for example.
The teachings of Jesus Christ are not merely philosophy:
"I am the bread of life."
"I am the light of the world."
"It is not I alone who judge, but I and the Father who sent me."
"Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
Etcetera. Jesus wasn't handing out philosophical advice on how to live, like Confucius or Lao Tzu. The fact that many fundamentalists have got his teaching all wrong doesn't change the fact that Jesus clearly proclaimed himself Messiah and Savior.
Heh heh... no, on a desktop. Wouldn't have a Fedora install disk in the same room as a server.:-)
But I was wrong about the problem being due to the kernel: it's actually to do with the version of X.org shipped. It's reportedly possible to back off to the previous version, by editing yum repositories and adding ignore directives, but I've lost interest.
"rpm.livna.org provides many useful packages that can not be distributed in Fedora (previously known as Fedora Core and Extras) for one reason or another, including multimedia applications such as xine and VideoLanClient, and video drivers for ATI and Nvidia cards..."
I've been running Red Hat/RHEL/etc. on servers since the 1990s, and keep trying the latest Fedora out of some warped sense of nostalgia. Found to my surprise that Nvidia drivers don't work on the new Fedora 9 yet. Tried and failed to find a way to build them myself, searched lists for a while, found that lots of other people have the same problem due to the bleeding-edge kernel, and that there's no ETA on a fix yet. The KDE that it ships with is the unusably broken KDE 4.0.3, on which almost every app I tried crashed. No option for KDE 3 that I can find: just v4.
Who'd want to use a distro like this, apart from a committed beta tester? I'm happy to submit bug reports on finished software, but Fedora turns users into perpetual volunteers. No thanks.
Yes, I did a quick RHEL installation on a server last week, accepting all defaults, and Gnome is indeed what I got. So I changed default runlevel to 3 to fix that.
Why an enterprise-grade Linux server installer should default to runlevel 5 is a mystery to me, but that department where I work is 100% Red Hat, so I just work around it.

Certainly, a candidate shouldn't be judged on their friendships alone, nor should those friendships be evaluated out of context. But McCain has publicly accepted the endorsements from Hagee, Parsley, and other unsavoury characters. These are not simply business associates or friends, whose political views he happens to disagree with. McCain publicly calls them his "spiritual guides". That seems like poor judgment at best, and hints that he might have some private views which voters should get to know more about before granting him control of the most powerful military on the planet.
The same standard should apply to all candidates, not just McCain and Obama, but also Hillary Clinton, whose connections with "The Family", a church group from the rightwing Dominionist movement, deserve similar scrutiny.
No, I'm talking about the default view without the reveal-codes screen. Perhaps it's changed in more recent versions, but back when we used it, WPFW moved the cursor abnormally with or without the reveal-codes screen. If Novell have fixed that since then, then good on 'em.

No the Air Force listed Twitter as a troll that terrorists use.
There, fixed that for ya.

All modern OSes suck in boot time.
I'm guessing you mean "all modern desktop and server OSes". Embedded Linux, BlackBerry OS, Symbian OS, QNX, etc. all boot instantaneously.
I'm hoping that SSD, along with the kind of innovations described in TFA, will bring this kind of performance into the desktop arena one day.

Actually, he was being irmonic.
