If you think 200 or 600 years is a long time, try reading aramaic. I know plenty of people who can still read and understand works written in Aramaic after 2000 years.
(A) it would make it easier for me to set up a repository for myself.
(B) it would make it easier for me to use urpmi with my distribution's CDs or website, even if the distribution didn't set up their mirrors with urpmi in mind.
so there you have two reasons why you might trust someone who didn't set up an hdlist file.
URPMI has a big feature that APT doesn't. (At least back when I used Mandrake 8.2)
In APT, you *need* to have the Packages file to know what packages are in your archive.
With URPMI, you don't necessarily need the hdlist file - URPMI can use rpm -qp (even over HTTP!) to find out all of the information it needs to know about the package. It takes longer, but it can be done.
Do you think you guys and the Apache guys could get together and implement pseudoserving?
It would help us to greatly cut down on the slashdotting effects.
P.S. The article is also available in the ACM Digital Library - get it there if you're a member, and spare my school's server the slashdotting.
/dev/vcs1. Beware - the screenshots of ncurses, or wierd colors, might be difficult to view in an xterm (because their control characters may be different from a linux console), and you've still only got a text file, not an image file.
mutt - for email tin - for newsgroups pork - for AIM irssi - for IRC links/elinks - for www lynx - also for www, when I need to use the mouse to copy and paste vim - text editor jpilot-dump - to see what's in my PalmPilot (they really need an ncurses frontend) screen
SVGAlib apps zgv - to view images svp - to view Postscript and PDF files
Speaking as such a student, I really hate that kind of PDF. They can be megabytes in size, sometimes a megabyte per page, and they're usually not worth my time or effort to download, and they're difficult to read.
Get them to type (or LaTeX) their lecture notes. Offer to convert those to PDF yourself. Don't scan them. Don't encourate them to generate more handwritten PDFs.
If you really must, then don't do PDFs, but use the most compressed image format you can find.
I always thought Google had to do with those "googly eyes" that you use to do crafts projects - this was my first impression when I visited google.
So how can they say it's infringing on Googol?
Even if he's not teaching them to create new algorithms, he's teaching them the existing ones, which certainly falls under the course title of cryptography.
90-100, and the auction guesses right

I'm going to guess that the auction system does a good job of predicting and that the opening price is near the closing price.
I will furthermore guess
Open:$90
Close:$100
I seem to recall that common Macintosh viruses were things like MDEF (menu definition) viruses or MBDF (menubar definition) viruses or WDEF (window definition) viruses. These are the names of certain kinds of code resources on Macintosh systems that could be used to define a custom look-and-feel in certain places where necessary.
To hook up an MDEF virus and get it to execute, you would insert an MDEF resource into the program (*very* easy to do), and then modify one of the MENU resources to use that MDEF to draw itself. (similarly for MBARs with MBDFs and WINDs with WDEFs). There were also certain resource numbers you could choose to hide the corresponding system resources while running the program, and you wouldn't have to do anything else to change the program.
I can see this being used extensively in the military, given a good amount of range it would allow for the exchange of real-time video (w/ added wearable cam), so in combination to the new Microdrone Spy Planes that would give you a bird's eye view you would also have a soldier's eye view... which in my opinion adds a much needed dimension to the REMF commander's decision making process.
For those who haven't figured out the name by now, a bedouins are nomads who live in Israel.
The instructions are not screwed up. They're exactly as confusing as the virus authors wanted them to be. But only slashdotters remove viruses this way - the rest of the world lets anti-virus software catch it.

Does Linspire still have the default root login thing I heard so much about? How's their security compared to other distros?
MOD PARENT UP
Some analysts said the move could eventually sideline conventional Linux and Unix operating systems.
Umm. More like the other way around - Linux (and MacOS) can finally sideline Windows.
Oh great - now windows will actually be *useful* to people who root it.

And don't forget urpme which removes packages from the system, like an apt-get remove.

Thanks for the tip, I didn't know that.

It would already be confusing, even if it just passed the image straight through, it would be difficult to tell what you were looking at.
These all fundementally cause a business to stop making a profit, and that's why the business fails.
I see it further up in the list of comments. Looks like you chose to certify (c) on this comment of yours.

Do they have Perl in yiddish? (It would just be so cool to program internet yiddish in yiddish)
Surely you reported that in an install report, right?

This is a *nasty* one. It's probably in our interests to put effort into dictionary-attacking the password on this. (In addition to snooping it)
