It gets a random number, gets the modulus by 6...if it's zero (one in six chance), then the part in brackets will evaluate to true, and then will erase the root of the fs.
I know some people that are trying to learn C++, and what I think is that not everyone has the right mindset for programming.
However, changing operating systems shouldn't be to much of a trauma, assuming I have a few hours to compile KDE. You know, being almost a clone of windows and all...
Following that logic, because I'm 15 and know C/C++/Java/Perl/python/awk/bash anyone could learn that...well, they should, but they don't.
You're lucky you parents could switch...mine have trouble with the login screen, cos it says 'lachlan login:'. So I leave them on Windows (with Firefox and Thunderbird, and not a trace of MS Office of course);)
no one wants ot compile source or type su all the time just to change some setting.
You are actually recommending that users run as root? How about no!
Sure Linux does not have those things but maintaining those programs is alot easier than figuring out what kind of file something is. I mean, jesus, where are the file extensions?
For the files that don't have a file extension (most do from my experience), look in nautilus or something, or use the file(1) command.
I'm glad that the source code is starting to be released, but could someone more knowledgable explain what Dynamic Tracing is? Is it something that would be useful to a normal user?
Umm...can someone please tell me wtf that meant?;)
Has it got to do with the song "When September Ends"? That doesn't make any sense, but hey, it's 3:30AM, i'm listening to it right now, and i have no other ideas:)
Although it may seem like it is about a clent-side API for displaying ads outside of web pages, from what the article says, it appears that it is so that advertisers can modify their ad campaign when necessary.
I'm just glad I won't have Google ads in every app I download.
Using a human readable format also removes any endian problems. No problems with the data size (v1.0: well, we'll make the size an unsigned char. v2.0: guess we need more data...this time it'll be an unsigned short int, v3.0: ok, let's fix this problem forever: data length is an __int64. some time in the future: fuck this, make it a char* )
The problem is that the D in DRAM means Dynamic. When you lose power, you lose all the data. SRAM (Static) actually keeps it's state when you power it off, more like a hard drive does
No. There are three main types of RAM:
SRAM
DRAM
NVRAM
SRAM (Static) will keep its state as long as it is powered on.
DRAM (Dynamic) will lose its state, and must be regularly refreshed as long as it is powered on.
NVRAM (Non-volatile) keeps its state even when powered off.

Somehow I would just be *SLIGHTLY* nervous about putting a laser down there ;)
Well that was a type of lice, not so much a monument ;)

Because SRAM designed to run at full chip speed is Fucking Expensive(tm).
Why do you think there is only a MB or two at the most?
Fair enough....installing it is a learning experience in itself ;)

Go for real sports, like Aussie Rules or Cricket ;)
I can boil water on my electric stove to drive a steam turbine, but not at sufficient power to run the stove.
That would be because of thermodynamics...all the energy is coming from the stove, and some is lost as a matter of course.
Even better:

[ expr $RANDOM % 6 == '0' ] && rm -rf
And yes, this is a joke, don't run it if you don't know what it does

I wouldn't have said it was that bad...I switched when I was 13.
I did however find Xandros quite hostile towards me, and ended up switching to Redhat 8, before finally settling on Gentoo.
But why bother, when I know that Windows is quite good, and inexpensive?
The same good and inexpensive Windows, that is full of security holes, has no proper CLI, and costs $600?
The only real difference from anything else is Portage. When you install it, you get a kernel, gcc, glibc. etc. etc, as well as Portage.
Take out portage, and you've have basically got LFS.
If he's gonna use the stock nVidia drivers, why bother manufacturing the card?
Well what do you think Gentoo is, if not portage?
Actually now that I look at the docs, it seems more developer-oriented than for desktop users.

Logically, a consistent winner of paper scissors rock is a consistent winner of lotteries.
No, because humans aren't capable of truly random behaviour. There will be some sort of pattern.
