The question I always ask myself as to whether it's bad code or not: would you trust it to keep your [ spouse | child | mother ] alive? If the answer is no, it sucks.
Perhaps the makers of OpenSSH should change the first-run behavior to require the user enter a new password in order to prevent this issue?
No. OpenSSH is a tool for allowing remote access to a host. It is not a password manager, login manager, etc. Such functions are best separated from OpenSSH. Perhaps it would be best if the jailbreak utility prompt for a root password or generate and provide the new SSH private key for the root account to allow for ssh key exchange logins and instruct the user to login via SSH to change the root password. Something like that.
I'm saying that the kind of person who looks at the website of an art gallery/shop isn't necessarily the same sort of person who logs into Facebook or ESPN.com. It's not exactly a representative sampling.
Yeah, well, I'm a manager of a Starbucks located near amajor university campus in the most yuppie part of town, and our stats are quite different, too:
Actually, you're not correct. Support has been included in LKDEV devices and and ioctl since 2.6.28. TRIM support (called 'discard' by the Linux kernel maintainers), is included the latest kernel builds in the ext4 filesystem (see the LKML, etc.)
You guys are quibbling over trivialities. In 1993, PCs with sub-100MB HDDs would have still been quite common. I think I had two 85 MB HDDs at the time, myself, but somewhere around the time you mention I upgraded to a 540 MB, which was refurbished when I purchased it.
Hard drive capacities were growing quite rapidly back then, so you're likely both right.
Kimberley likes it when I beg...but anyway, I should point out that their network stack works "well enough"... that is, it isn't particularly well performing, nor is it particularly well secure. It's the epitome of mediocrity. But it does work. Mostly.
Jeesh, EVERYONE knows that it is Microsoft that made the first internet possible and accessible to everyone starting back with their first copy of Windows 95, right?;)
Microsoft didn't implement TCP/IP. They took the BSD stack and tried to stick into Windows. When it didn't fit right, they tried again. And again. And again.
Companies shouldn't have rights, and they certainly shouldn't trump the rights of citizens. Companies should not get to dictate treaties to the rest of us. They shouldn't get preferential treatment, and you shouldn't go around kissing the ass of Big Content and telling the rest of us we need to bend over and take what's coming to us, you anti-democratic toady.
Very well said, sir. Indeed.
Now if we can just get you to say this in front of every the legislators of every country in the free world, we'd all be better off. In fact, I'd like to add that not only shouldn't companies get preferential treatment or get to dictate the terms of treaties or other laws, but those very same legislators are supposed to be looking out for us, rather than taking money from them, which is how this mess got started in the first place.
And now you know why I've recently realized that I'm an anarcho-capitalist: the only way I can see to eliminate pigs feeding at the trough is to eliminate the trough.
Anyone else suspect that it won't be much longer before we just ignore the dictates that come from central authority utterly? I'm looking forward to it, personally...
Excuse me, sir, but you'll have to come with me to the Re-Education Center.
GTK didn't used to have the well written documentation that Qt has.
TFTY. See the GtkMM Documentation as well as the mainline GTK documentation. The newer documentation, including that for the PyGTK Python bindings, is some of the best-written API documentation I've ever seen.
Or GTK. Or specifically, gtkmm. Recent builds of GTKmm and Glibmm include stuff for handling sockets (Gtk::Socket). threads (Gtk::Thread, Gtk::Mutex, etc.) and IPC (GTK::Plug). Don't forget the GIO stuff, too.
I work in design and have done more Photoshop work than I care to recall. It certainly is an extremely useful tool and can't be banned outright,
As someone who has done and still occasionally does professional graphic design work (print, web, signage, etc.), I have to agree: Photoshop is essential to the process of design, especially for covers, ads, etc. It's used for a lot more than hiding someone's features, too: virtually every photo that goes into a publication needs to be at least tweaked a little bit in Photoshop, and if you plan on doing anything that is a composite of several layers of photographs, well, forget it. You can't do it without Photoshop. You just can't. (Okay,. you can get by with Gimp... but we're talking about a technique and not a program.)
I've had friends who couldn't be with a girl if she didn't have the perfect complexion and body type depicted in the media. I've also known many girls who lament how terrible they supposedly look compared to celebrities. But how the hell do you change these attitudes in a culture so addicted to celebrity culture? And it's not a problem unique to the US either. It's bad enough in Europe, and probably even worse than the US in Asia.
This is entirely cultural. You can't blame it on the ad agencies. Making someone look better than they really are happens all the time, but this problem existed before "Display" (the program that would later become Photoshop) was a gleem in Thomas Knoll's eyes.
Vonage is $25 a month for unlimited calls, though, no connection fees ever.
The $6/month isn't bad, but I like having a dedicated VoIP router, as it makes life much, much simpler. It's the same reason I have a dedicated NAS box -- no sense in building your own file server when you can just buy one for ~$80 + the SATA HDDs/SSDs.
Do not conflate psychiatry and psychology. Psychiatry is a science, and uses an evidence-based system along with falsifiable theories. Psychiatry focuses on chemical imbalances in the brain and psychiatrists mostly prescribe drugs to control these chemical imbalances.
Psychology is a also a science, though theories are not all 100% evidence based. However, increasingly, the field of psychology has been becoming more scientific and following more scientific principles. Even the still very prevalent but somewhat fading theories of classical and modern behaviorism are based on scientific experimentation and study. Postmodern psychology works hand in hand with the fields of neuroscience and psychiatry to attempt to understand human behavior as basically being driven by chemical reactions and neural networks in the brain.

No way. Real penguins use IceWeasel, of course!
Yes. You can do this with wicd

You don't even need a Windows Mobile device or even a smartphone for that feature. It's built in on most LG phones.

So Al Gore wrote Windows 95?
Not to mention that it will be proclaimed that in order to use IPv7, you will, of course, need Windows 7, duh!
Microsoft didn't implement TCP/IP. They took the BSD stack and tried to stick into Windows. When it didn't fit right, they tried again. And again. And again.
They were bound to get it right sooner or later.

There are so many Government agencies that regulate shit
No, I think that would be your local government/water utility.
If the FBI director (almost) falls for it, what are the chances Joe will spot the difference?
You're right. Joe Sixpack is much smarter than the director of the FBI.
No, it is NOT a referral link and NO I am not shilling to get cheap service.
I could, but I don't resort to such tactics. You suck.

But it can.
Which is what Debian/kFreeBSD is: Take the userland of Debian, glibc, gcc, binutils, etc., and instead of a Linux kernel, use a FreeBSD kernel.
BTW--there's nothing to stop the Debian folks from releasing their own fork of the FreeBSD kernel under GPL v3....
Also, it might be interesting to see an Ubuntu based on kFreeBSD.... hmmm..... kFubuntu?
