JFS already got ported from OS/2 to Linux, so I don't see a problem. As an aside, AIX had the original implementation of JFS, but it was reimplemented basically from scratch for OS/2. The OS/2 version was discovered to be superior, so it was ported to AIX and eventually to Linux. So not everything in OS/2 is lost.
As long as the US is afraid it might get nuked it will stay away from nations that have that capacity and stick to attacking defenseless countries like iraq and afghanistan.
You are discounting the very real danger of accidental release of nuclear weapons. Both USA and USSR have on several occasions mistaken various events for missile launches. Fortunately there was enough time to figure out that the launches were imaginary or peaceful. Once both SDI and nuclear weapons in space are in place, the likelyhood of mistaking something else for an attack will go up, and the time window before retaliation missiles must be launched is cut short.
That's where the ISP itself needs to use SPF on the incoming mail.
Great, so not only will they force me to receive mail through their mail servers, they will also remove some of the mail that would otherwise have gone to my server. I certainly do not want them to do that.
It's getting very popular around here (Denmark) for ISP's to close port 25 inbound. The way to get mail through to your server is to put your server in MX with a priority of say 10, and the ISP mail server in MX with priority of say 20. However, after mail has passed through the ISP mail servers, you cannot tell which address it came from originally, and so you cannot filter by sender.
How about just keeping the file explorer away from the directory? The file explorer tries watching for changes in the directories that you have open; that's probably what messes things up. The tree approach should help, but just remember that it's a workaround for broken applications -- NTFS itself is capable of handling many files in a directory.
Anyway, the only alternative to using the OS file system is to implement your own file system in user space, or use a database as a file system. If you choose to roll your own, remember to implement fsck and possibly journalling, otherwise you risk losing everything if the power goes.
Keep a file per device. The OS will cache appropriately. The files will eventually get horribly fragmented, depending on which file system you choose. This should not be too much of a problem, depending on the read access pattern -- and if it is a problem, just be careful about which file system you pick. Reiser4 with automatic repacking would be the perfect candidate, but I haven't followed the development closely or tried the repacking myself.
Around here the probability of an UPS failure approaches that of losing power in the first place. Therefore it is unwise to use an UPS for a server with only one power supply. Other places are less fortunate, of course.
Does this mean it'll stop flooding out my ACKs and making my web browsing slow to a crawl?
If all routers between you and the web sites are reasonably smart, then yes. That's unlikely, but if your access router does proper bandwidth allocation, that's sufficient too.
(on an architecture like PowerPC or SPARC function calls and context switches have similar overheads).
I have no idea where you got that from. x86 is a relatively fast architecture when it comes to context switches. SPARC has the huge register file to save and reload.
I can't find recent results though. If anyone has recent comparative lmbench numbers I'd like to see them.
The difference is that there is a good chance that Gnome, KDE, and Xorg will actually deliver, whereas it is virtually guaranteed that Rasterman will not.
I've never read Chaucer, but I do know for a fact that France is the only country to have such an institution.
Perhaps "such an institution" includes the requirement that the employees take vows to abstain from the use of ball point pens. In this case you are most likely right. However, if you relax that one requirement, many countries have institutions charged with taking care of their languages.
Absolutely, monopolies can form in a true capitalistic system. Microsoft just isn't an example of a monopoly which could exist in a true capitalistic system.
If you think that capitialism does not allow monopolies, talk to Microsoft.
Microsoft is a special case which would never happen in a true capitalistic system. Their monopoly is only there by governmental force: If I start selling copies of their product I get sued out of existence. Remarkably, there are very few examples of true (non-government-enforced) monopolies these days. Some cable companies might count, but again that's a heavily regulated market.
The SN95G5 is pretty much silent. The only way I can make it raise its fan speed is with the utility burnk8. (I was worried the speed regulation was broken).

isn't enough. You'll have a hard time finding a hard drive quiet enough to match.
It would be a bit obvious that the EU isn't a democracy if it didn't have something like a parliament, don't you think? Besides, the parliament has the power to dissolve the Commission. There's no chance of it being united enough to do that over a mere political matter, of course. But on occasion, the Commission might manage to offend Parliament enough over some personal thing that it could happen.

How about we just kill off IDN entirely instead?
The trick is that the 10l tank doesn't actually contain 10l of hydrogen. By weight, only 9% of the tank is hydrogen.
I still consider methane the best storage medium for hydrogen. Of course, that won't eliminate emissions of carbon dioxide completely.
In URL's you don't use HTML entities, you encode the characters with %whatever. You already got that bit right with %20.

Air tends to be dirtier near the floor. If you have sufficient airflow, the difference that convection makes is negligible.

In Denmark telesales are illegal except for a few product groups (mainly newspapers). You can opt out of those as well.
Telesales to companies are legal though.

AMD has already declared that the CPU's will pretend to do hyperthreading. This should solve most licensing issues.
Lucky that SetCallerId is available, then. Or fromuser= in sip.conf, if you're using a VoIP provider.

The Americans certainly didn't end the war on the Russian side.
Yes, the Canadians should add an extra 0 to their notes, then the comparison would favour Canada even more.

Are you sure it doesn't simply pass on the already-compressed stream? It would be a bit pointless to decompress and then recompress.
