Erm I've *never* had a problem with OOo reading doc formats (or even ppt and xls). Apparently there are the occasional glitch when saving complex documents in Microsoft's format, but I havent seen any.
No clue about Ubuntu but Gentoo not only detects breakages such as that but can also prevent anything bad from happening until its fixed. Not sure why Ubuntu left the old version.

Linux software RAID 5 uses 2% CPU under heavy load.
Given the fact that you can always recover your data with any Linux livecd gives it a definite edge over a hardware raid solution where you need a similar model to read the data.
I'd worry about a SSD being destroyed too quickly with certain database loads.
If its mostly read then yeah the SSD would kick butt but throw in frequent writing and I'd get worried.
Hey if there was a patchy helicopter with me in its cross hairs I would be running pretty fast - not that running would do me much good. :P
Erm wasnt that Linksys?
If I recall correctly they didnt actually make a product for sale.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
Wouldnt you need more skilled labour than unskilled labour for bridges, power, water and similar things?
Some operators over here in Australia (e.g. Virgin) do the opposite.
Free calls and txts to anyone else on the network.
You can go absolutely nuts with them and they wont charge you a cent for those calls/txts.
So....this is them *still* making crap but they are reducing the price a little so they can make more money off said crap.
And if it by some miracle does take off they can go 'Ha!' and slap the full price on it.
Have you had your eyes checked recently? ;)
If you cannot see *that* many brackets then something is horribly wrong.
Wow thats a pretty shocking bug. Good find.
Yes if you ignore the multibillion dollar cost of the actual console which has extremely high failure rates.
Thats quite a big thing to ignore you know. :P
HE'S A TERRORIST!!! BURN HIM!!!!

Ahhh memories. Yes I did miss a few. :)
A good game is one which you will play 5, 10 or even 20 years later.
Not one which has millions of polygons and looks pretty.
That requires superb, original gameplay.
I can only name a handful - Quake, Total Annihilation, Zork and a few more.
Not AMD to Intel and vice versa, thats the real breakthough.
eclean distfiles removes old distfiles which arent required by any packages.
There is only something like that every 6 months or so. The one before that must have been expat breaking compatibility.
But generally the new preserved-rebuild feature in the ~arch portage should stop that from happening anymore.
Thats why they added the --keep-going tag.
It can be useful when your doing a lot of updates.
Can you imagine Vista, running on the back of every seat in a A380?
Super computers are heavy you know, and have you seen Vista's power usage?
The jet needs the engines for flight you know.
They do. It probably cost a few hundred million.
I seem to have I2C drivers up and running on both my old P4 desktop and my new laptop.
lm_sensors uses it.
All the temp readings and voltages are over I2C.
Uses the same code as the embedded devices.
Nothing to do with drivers. :P

The GPL does specifically state that you need to host the source for at least 3 years, if its modified or not.
Its so you will always be able to find a copy.
Older versions seem to be more difficult to find.
And no they only need to provide source to their customers for the GPLed parts.
Need to make CO2 to save CO2?
Uh huh. No.
Yes it does have a UPS, and the important data is mostly read and not written.

Which is nice. The Australian National Archives already use ODF for all their archived documents. :)
