Part of me even thinks it's a shame that RMS didn't wait 20 years before starting GNU. Maybe then we would be cloning Mac OS X, instead of crappy 1980's Unix workstations. Of course, Mac OS X is built in part on what RMS did with GNU, so that would require a bit of a time loop.
I give Stallman props for GNU Emacs and gcc, but the man has trouble with entire OSes. Also, could one clone OS X?
Apache2 allows one to choose which IP addresses the web server will "accept". In default-server.conf, there is a place for this. Also, if one is running a full-blown version of Linux, one can do the same thing is hosts.allow and hosts.deny.
The Hunley isn't so much bad engineering as it is pushing the envelope too much. I doubt that the Confederacy could have built a safer submarine.
Also, it killed more Confederates than Union sailors. Its lone enemy sinking was the USS Housatonic, all but five of the crew climbing the rigging to wait to be rescued.
Sexuality is downplayed in our media because it's portrayal naturally incites sexual thinking (which leads to sexual behavior) in people to a far, far greater degree than violence. Our society has real and severe problems with people (especially kids/young people/whatever you want to call them) having sex and getting into trouble (diseases, teen pregnancies, damaged psyches, etc.).
Our society does not have severe problems with people running around with assault rifles and rocket launchers (sure there are isolated cases, but the sexual problems in our society are many orders of magnitude greater).
So aggravated assault is less of a problem than teen pregnancy? Also, is teen pregnancy reduced by not thinking about sex? And what of people whose psyches are damaged from not getting sex?

But the facts are already there, whether we cognize them or not. It is only in being aware of facts that we become free.
I didn't mean scary for the workers, but for the corporations. How can they get you to buy those toys?
But that will lead to problems for the commoditizers as well. What happens if wage rates (adjusted for productivity) converge across the globe?

The original poster said that this occurred in the mid-80's. Also, Fran Tarkenton worked at KnowledgeWare, which produced CASE tools.
CASE (Computer Aided/Assisted Software Engineering?)?
OK, I've heard about that for sinks. I didn't know that it was available for washers.
So these washer have electric water heaters that are hotter than regular water heaters?
This gives a different figure (42,636):

90 degrees Celsius? How does it heat the water?
Of course, some of us run cron at night.
Won't most people get Vista at OEM prices?
I guess it's not the DWL-G650, which works fine on my Linux box (remember to get those madwifi packages).
144 kilowatt-seconds? That's 0.04 kilowatt-hours, which, at $0.10 per kilowatt-hour, comes out to $0.004. Sorry, not much ouch.
I've heard that MS-DOS 2 used "\" because "/" was already used for command flags, such as "/?" for help. MS-DOS 1 did not have directories.
But whatever the bandwidth, doesn't that kind of rendering need low latency as well?
I take it you have never read "The Mythical Money Month"? Seriously, can Microsoft accelerate development on Vista by throwing more money at it?
When the only tool you possess is a hammer...
A legislative gavel is a hammer.
Isn't that forced integration?

Which hunter-gatherers work 35 hours a week? I thought it was more like 3 hours a day.
