Let's face it, the people who tinker around with computers and the people who drive race cars think differently.
Uh, I think your making *way* to broad of a statement. I'm a sysadmin, who races Solo 2 class on the weekends.. So, maybe you think differently, but I don't.:)
The government can take my monopolized terror of the market from me when they pry it from my cold dead brain. If terrorizing markets from a monopoly position is illegal, only outlaws will terrorize the market from a monopoly position.
Uh, okay I ran it and hit my ulimits. But even if I hadn't, I don't get where I'd have elevated privledge (i.e. what data do you have access to after that you didn't before).
This is a DoS not a breach. (And see the thread about this exact issue on the OpenBSD mailing lists).
When you're at a company where you have to use AFS and have to run an old Linux kernel to get AFS support, you'll realize that this is a good thing.
Hmm, you guys should have bought the source license then. (I realize the added cost, but it's worthwhile.) I've been building AFS for every version of the Linux kernel(offical and not) that we run.
Nope, sorry. Assuming a large portion of your trafic already passes over fiber, your ping would bearly change (the light travelling down the fiber will be going the same speed [more or less])
I'm guessing the ammount of bandwidth (not latency) would be huge tho...
Hee hee, that's an interesting take on it. My question has always been, if I spend X dollars a year, what are the odds of me winning more then X dollars on the lotto?
(Yeah, I know the answer tends towards zero, but, I really do wanna see the odds:)
Of course the fact that it causes many more accidents (and larger chains of cars get caught in them), needs to be mentioned. Take away control in the name of saftey and you usually lose both.
Then again, MSFT was *supposed* to be one of the pillars of the technology market, it's supposed to be a shining example of how high you can go with technology. It's hard too see it that way when they've lost %35 of there stock price, and more then $100billion dollars, they've had a rulling stateing the competed unfairly, and a black eye from a school prank (and what was thought to be a back door) in one of there more visable products...
There are some problems with implementing this in cars
1. They are unsure of running the system at high RPM's(above7200)that cars usually go
I don't think that'd be a problem for many cars. Unless you really like Honda's and others who really like getting a *lot* of performance out of a smaller displacement block. (Yes, I drive a car that qualifies for that: 97 Integra Type-R 1.8L 195HP 8400RPM redline). Your average joe probably dosen't own car that see's the happy side of 7500RPM without finding out the hard way if it's an interference engine or not...
2. The RISC operating system and 24mghz processors need more than 12 volts like cars use now.
It's not voltage, but clean enough power that they will need... You can step up the 12 volts off the car to 110, 5, 12, or what ever you need with a transformer, etc. I'm assuming it's not much of a problem to get it cleaned up enough, as people are running car MP3 players, and what-not already... So, completely redesign them? Nah, just keep the revs down (Boo hiss:)
(I know nothing about NDS, so, please excuse my ignorance)
What does it offer the Kerberos5 dosen't? Krb5 gives you the single login, and the ability to control access to, machines, and things based on the Krb5 ticket you hold, and scales to many thounsands of users (~60000 here so far, on a pair of Sparc IPC's).
There has been support there since at least 3.3.5 (have one). But, I'm not sure if you can get any better then 15bit mode at high res, due to some wierdness with the S3 clocks on that board. HTH

Oh, there documentation is slightly wrong.
The line to build it (for Linux 2.2 - kernel 2.2.17) should be
NOTE that it's LINUX_VERS, not LINUX_VERSION

NEXT!! :)
b) I usually get mine out of /sbin, but if you wanna use dos... Go right ahead. :)
a) I think they were talking about a firewall, not a desktop

Are you sure they weren't iMacs?

Well, then these companies aren't the ones to buy from if they won't give you what you want. :) (Sure it's an idea world I live in... but....)
PMIRC! My favorite client for a *LONG* time, till I ended up on X-Chat and Linux, OpenBSD, etc etc.

Heh, the stock is already off 2 points today... ~7 points this week...

Bah, IMHO, he's just saving face because he know's how the DOJ trial is going to go... :)
1) Nope.

:) Pack the bowie knife and listen up, it's in the Latest release of GNUs (5.8.2 I believe).
Errr, I'd check but at the moment, the gnus homepage appears to be replaced with a list of RFC's...
Bah, use Emacs and the latest GNUS (gnus?), it has an interface that makes slashdot articles look like a news group, etc etc..
I haven't posted back from it yet, but it *looks* cool :), and it's great for reading articles. (Gnus scoring on top of slashdot scoring... :)
21MB of source! Um... Should my browser really be larger than my operating system kernel? Should my browser really be bigger than my windowing system?
Hate to break it to ya, but an unziped linux-2.2.13 source tarball is about 64MB.
XFree86 3.3.5 source tarballs added together (X335src-[1-3].tgz) ungziped and added together are, 160megs of source.
Mozilla is just a light wieght for what it does. :)
BLEH. It's much easier to just type:
pkg_add -v ftp://sunsite.ualberta.ca/pub/OpenBSD/packages/i3Packages are your friend (right next to the ports being your friend ;)
english to french to english on babel. Not as bad as it could have been... :)
