I couldn't really decipher the meaning of your post The summary states "The CentOS development team has announced the availability of CentOS-4.3 for the i386, x86_64, and ia64 architectures."
CentOS will not run on a 386. What they meant to say was "The CentOS development team has announced the availability of CentOS-4.3 for the x86, x86_64, and ia64 architectures."
From the CentOS about page: CentOS-4 supports x86 (i586 and i686),
In other words, it won't run in a 386, I wouldn't want it if it was compiled so low as to be optimized for a 386. Please start using x86 something other than 386.
However, even the CentOS page is guilty (from another page on CentOS's site: i386 - This distribution supports AMD (K6, K7, Thunderbird, Athlon, Athlon XP, Sempron), Pentium (Classic, Pro, II, III, 4, Celeron, M, Xeon), VIA (C3, Eden, Luke, C7) processors.

I think your sig says it all!
If people bitch when the NSA listens to calls from suspected terrorists, who are not in the US and not citizens, could you imagine the outcry if the gov't started sniffing packets? (OK, OK, I'm sure they already do... and people bitch about it.)
Banning email is a not-so subtle way of notifying admins that their servers have been compromised. Maybe when a few CEO's find that their staff can't send emails, they'll hire some competent admins.
"I don't think this should be on the air at 8:00pm" I encourage you to take that up with your TV station. You could even not watch it.
You are correct. In the name of free speech, we should ban all forms of censorship. I want two men butt-fucking on The Cartoon Network when the kids get home from school. I want to see a woman tie a man up and shit in his mouth during prime time. I want to see Wil eat Grace while Jack shoves anal beads up Wil's ass. For that matter, I think I'll fuck my wife on my neighbor's yard. If they are offended by it, they can just close their blinds, right?
Seriously, with your logic, the sky's the limit; or should I say, "the gutter". Why should we limit sex to the cable networks when they could be on every channel at any time of the day?
While I know it has little to do with Gnome or any other WM, I was quite impressed with the XGL demo I saw the other day. I was so impressed that I Downloaded the live CD and ran it (http://getkororaa.com/). I actually think it is snapper than my Gentoo box (once the disk cache gets loaded on both systems). I think this is where the GUI development needs to be headed. While it's good that Linux can run on a 486-SX/25 with 512K onboard video, no one is really running that any more. Most of us have at least some sort of NVidia graphics accelerator in our systems that sits idle while the 2D window manager is using our man processor to pop up windows that are designed to look 3D (shadows under the mouse and windows, buttons that "press" by changing bitmaps and so on). Why don't we free up our CPU and off load much of that processing to video card that would otherwise sit idle? Combine this with the other performance enhancements of GNOME and I think you could have an excellent desktop.
I'm sure he wasn't. Nor should he be. Senators are not judges; they are expected to hold and push for their own opinions; those opinions are hopefully why we elected them. What would be the point of the hearings then? How can Dee Snyder get a fair shake when he's dragged before a congressional committee by a woman who's husband sits on that committee? Besides, my point was that this is not a Bush/Gore or Republican/Democrat thing, so blaming it on any particular person or party is pointless. I too am against censorship in nearly all its forms, but at 8:00 over the public air waves, this was a bit much. It is not like this was CBS's first offense.
"Free speach" obviously shouldn't apply if someone, somewhere might see a naked person and be offended! Naked people are TERRIBLE! While I agree that free speech means you absolutely have the right to offend, and I'm all about seeing naked people (women anyway), I don't think this should be on the air at 8:00pm. If they aired it at 10:00 on the west coast or showed on a cable channel that is not broadcasted for free over the air waves, I would not have a problem with it. But 8:00 is when many families have just gotten done eating dinner with their kids who just got home from soccer practice. They should be free to watch something other than "the family channel" or disney with their kids.
Let's see, Tipper Gore did some stuff as a private citizen, True, but her husband did sit on the commitee. Of course, I'm sure he was complete unbiased.
BTW, I saw the scene. While I like porn just as much as the next guy, this was a bit much to be shown on the air at 8:00 on the west coast.
Ah yes of course and of all those who died as a result of inhumane sanctions against innocent Iraqi's? And do you really think bombing and shooting tens of thousands of civilians is an appropriate cost of removing a dictator and regime? You did not have the backing of the UN. You participated in an illegal war which has NOT found WMD's and has NOT stopped terrorism there. You did manage to anger lots more people around the World however. Under the sanctions, which were UN sanctions btw, Saddam had a choice. He could either feed and provide medicine for the people of Iraq, or feed his military and build himself palaces. This is what caused 1,000,000 children (just children) to die preventable deaths under the UN sanctions. I'm not placing the blame 100% on Saddam Hussein. Half the problem was with UN officials who took bribes and kickbacks while turning a blind eye to the Iraqi people. This led us to a choice. Either throw the sanctions out, allowing Saddam Hussein to stay in power, and let him do with "his" people as he wished (remember, he had already used some of those non-existant WMD's on a bunch of 'em), of go in there, with UN approval (which we did receive) and back up those 17 UN resolutions that the UN wouldn't back up themselves. While the war in Iraq has not been perfect, I take all body counts with a grain of salt. If a man in civilian clothes, who works as a baker by day, is making an IED at night that blows up and kills him, is he considered a civilian casualty?
you would have died for a pack of lies. THE FACT REMAINS, that WMD's and a danger to America were stated to be the reason for going in to Iraq and yet to this day they HAVE NOT BEEN FOUND WMD's were not the only reason to go to Iraq. Saddam Hussein had invaded every single bordering country to his own with the exception of Syria. He was cutting hands off and tongues out of those who he thougth opposed him. One of his sons who was in charge of the Olympic atheletes tortured those that did not come home with the gold. Fathers were killed, mothers killed and a video of the whole thing was sent to the kids. Trust me, this was not a nice guy. While I understand that there are tyrants all over the world, this one was sitting on 15% of the world's oil reserves and would have no problem using revenue from that to fund his horrific ambitions. Still, that doesn't matter to people like you. I guess it's OK for brown people to torture more brown people as long as an American Conservative president doesn't get his way. (By the way, there were 90-something other countries helping out, many giving more per capita that the US is.)
Remember, "serving your country" does should NOT mean "serving your government", it should mean "serving for the good of all of Americans" What the hell makes Americans so damn special? I joined to serve my country and help it serve mankind. I didn't care what color, nationality or religion the people were that I was helping. To say that the US military should only "serve for the good of Americans" is kind of a narrow, racist view, isn't it?
With all the hipocritical and damning news that has come out of Iraq, including torcher, murder and rape Well, if it bleeds, it leads. Unfortunately, you don't hear about all the schools being built, water running and power plants being rebuild. That doesn't equal good ratings. Torture? You mean the panties on head. Light-weight stuff compared to the limbs I saw getting chopped off under the "previous regime". Murder? You mean the killing of armed insurgents (terrorists) will gladly set off bombs in crouded markets? Yeah, I can live with it. Rape? Haven't heard any reports of such a thing. Are you making that up? Even if you can point to one or two, has the number increased or decreased sine 2003?
So how many of these can you proudly and patriotically claim as your own handy work? That site claimed a max of 37000 civilian deaths. First, what is a civilian? Next, I thought the num
Good thing we have the Bush administration to help us with these ultra liberal television networks Don't blame this on Bush any more than you blamed Al when Tipper Gore went after WASP and Twisted Sister.
So violence on TV? Good. War based on lies? Good. Innocent lives being killed for Bush and his rich friends?
This is insightful? I'd call it a troll. No where in this article was the War in Iraq mentioned, but you thought to bring it up anyway. That, my friend, is the definition of troll (or at least OT).
But since you brought it up: US has gone to war against a nation with no real proof that that nation had any intent of means to harm the US, Not true. We have actual videotape of Saddam saying, "while a country could not attack the US with bio weapons, an individual could, provided they were given the weapons. with the result being thousands of innocent people being killed, including Iraqi children, men, women As opposed the the millions of men, women and children that died as a result of us not going in there earlier. (UNICEF's numbers, not mine) and patriotic young US men and women. When I signed up to serve, I knew this was a real possibility. I was ready to die for my country. These patriotic young US men and women knew this as well.
I suspect that "they'll" pay for it using some of the 6.9 BILLION dollars per month that we are currently spending between Iraq and Afganistan
OK, I can understand your complaint about Iraq, that's debatable, but to lump Afghanistan in there with it really shows that you are completely ignorant or just a complete pussy.
Granted, Iraq was not responsible for 9-11. Afghanistan was. While it wasn't the Taliban that recruited the 20 hijackers, it was Al-Qaeda, based in Afghanistan and protected by the Taliban. So to say that we should not be in Afghanistan means that you have absolutely no idea what 9-11 was about or you simply do not care.
How can you have broadband if you don't have a computer. I guess this means computers for all! I'll take two, please.
You can't get online if you didn't pay your electric bill. Free Power!
What about a desk to put your computer on? How about Software? (is MS going to be subsidised now?) Computer education for the masses?
Don't libraries already have computers with broadband for all?
Don't get my sarcasm wrong, I wish I didn't have to pay that extra $50 a month just to get faster download speeds. But broadband for all is kinda worthless if you don't have a computer.
WOW! We treat our "less than human" captors better at Abu Ghraib, Guantánamo Bay, and undisclosed prisons throughout Europe than just about any country in the world. If that's how we treat those that we consider to be non-human, I say we are treating our human captors way too well!
I use Beyond TV on my PC. After a simple setup, it downloads the TV schedule daily. I can set it to record single shows, every show by name (ATHF), or first airings of a particular show (skips all the repeats). I record in MPEG and will compress the recordings to WMV or DIVX.AVI when the PC is idle. I can also save the shows that are recorded to the media of my choice as they sit right there in open format on the HDD.
The whole thing cost me about $40 and came with a remote (of course, you will also need a TV card and free HDD space... both of which I already had). For a bit more, I could set up recordings watch the shows from any PC on the network, but vnc or remote desktop with file sharing are cheaper.
This is Slashdot. You get modded down if your opinions differ from those doing the modding. I knew what I was getting into when I made the post. What's really sad is that I never really said anything bad about Howard Dean, except that he did not act very presidential. You could say the same thing about Ross Perot, except he pulled it off a bit better as he was much more likeable in my opinion. Either way, I like both men as they tend to shake things up a bit. I still stand by my point that Howard Dean's worse enemy is Howard Dean, not the Democratic or Republican parties or the media. And yeah, I agree that the scream was very overplayed by the media.
Long and short: your views are valid but you have no right to force them on others or make those who bleave diffrent things sound like monsters
I agree whole heartedly. That's why I think the president's "compromise" was so brilliant. The President did not outlaw embryonic research, he simply won't allow for tax payer money to support getting new stem cell lines from embryos. The President does provide money for research using existing stem cell lines. He is the first president to do so.
I personally am not against embryonic stem cell research, but I feel that destroying an embryo to get the stem cells is wrong. From what I've read, it seems like adult derived stem cells seems to be the way to go anyway.
