I think X is like Unix : it was inadequate and bloated but computers have caught up with their demands, in terms of power and disk capacity.
Could you please stop these inadequate comparisons that are totally false? When Unix was developed, it was a lightweight and powerful operating system. Regarding lightweightness, some derivations and incarnations of Unix still are.
Actually, no. Remember the scene with the B-52 bombers dropping the bombs which exploded and darkened the sky in "The Second Renaissance, Part 2"? What's how they did it.
Ah, 6-digit-users discussing about being a n00b or not. you're all n00bs, because your UID has 6 digits.

The last time I talked to Klaus Knopper, he said that basically he does all the development. I might well be that one or another component has been contributed, but the main work on the actual Knoppix CD is his work. Of course, a support crew is also very important for a project, but that's another story.
BTW: did you know that Klaus Knopper got several threats on his answering machine when Knoppix was enclosed to a computer magazine, and severel readers of this computer magazine who tried out Knoppix accused Knoppix of destroying their computers [sic!].

Kudos to those who work and contribute to Knoppix for producing such a quality assembly of open source software in such a useful form.
That's Klaus Knopper. And AFAIK, only Klaus Knopper (except for the installer, which is contributed).
Of course, the C library is written mostly in C (including printf and the C string functions), so that makes it hard to argue that C is not insecure.
In fact, the problem is that K&R didn't know how to properly design a secure standard for the programming language C. Just because the standard C library is flawed security-wise, it doesn't mean that other libraries are flawed, too. A good example for a compact library implementing an API that makes it easier to write secure applications (especially when it's about string handling) is libowfat. Of course, programmers still have to think, but libowfat makes it easier for them to e.g. compute buffer sizes.
Come on, insulting people won't help you in the discussion. BTW: why do you think did the US-americans forbid Geiger counters for civil persons in Iraq? In Iraq, nobody but US soldiers are allowed to own and use Geiger counters.
Come on. That is outrageous. Africans are not babies, and we are not their irresponsible parents. I find talk like that extremely insulting to Africans as it suggests they are not as "advanced" as Western civilizations and cannot control themselves when presented with military technology.
Nobody with a lot of military technology can control itself, not even the USA. Just have a look at the great number of wars they fought in the last 15 years, how many countries they conquered and which "nice" weapons they used (small nuclear warheads as "bunker busters", bullets with uranium, bombs creating vacuums,...).
Then watch it alone, in the night, with all lights in your flat turned off, and you are going to be scared. Trust me. "Blair Witch Project" was the first movie to scare me under these circumstances.

What "creator"? You mean my parents? No, my wife and I are not married with our parents, you fucking intolerant reactionary christian zealot.
A true emulator, like bochs, doesn't need this tweaking.
Then, tell me, why I can't get Coherent 4.2.10 to run with Bochs, because Coherent thinks the floppy drive is open?

No, there are a few more:
.arpa means "Address and Routing Parameter Area".

Less developed countries use CDMA, not GSM. The USA, for example.

Actually, tinydns ist part of djbdns. djbdns consists of tinydns and dnscache (+ several DNS-related helper tools).
the domain before the TLD must be at least three characters long. And, as I mentioned before, atat.at is already taken.
In fact, there's a guy owning atat.at who has an email address at@atat.at. And his initials are AT.
God, you really are stupid.
