True, but this is why it takes time to build a good karma rating so that anyone will pay attention to you no?
Sure I've posted some stupid stuff, and my karma is bad as a result, that's life.
Racing after her credibility won't change the fact that her driver is dead.
In the end it doesn't matter how many times her car was/wasn't shot at, one is all it takes.
You're right, normally it would take at least 6 months before it turned up on Slashdot.
I shouldn't complain though, once an article gets here we get it again every month for the rest of time.
In some ways an actual photo of stuff like that is slightly more useful. It's slightly more difficult to hack up a fake than with just a screenshot. (Only just though).
Based on what? It's still up to 4 CDs and if you install the same packages as most people do with fedora it will still perform at about the same level.
To be fair, it's not *that* bad for bloat. I installed Fedora Core 3 on a desktop machine the other day and got it down to about a gig. Though granted I 'cheated' by using Xfce and not using Openoffice...
Basically I'm not sure that you can have bloat free and choice in a distro. If you give the user lots of choices of apps then an unfortunate side effect is that you end up with large overlapping libraries.
This is probably best exhibited on the desktop with fedora where some 'bad' package choices can easily land you with the majority of Gnome and KDE BOTH installed even when you use only one or worse niether of them.
A lot of the plans have had their download limits upped for this reason. Although free PIPE traffic was nice I really doubt anyone was getting so much out of it they wouldn't take the added speed instead.

Any post I make is tied to one identifiable tag, anything posted as AC could be any one of thousands of 'randoms'.
Posting with an abrasive attitude is all well and good but it doesn't stand up as well when you hide behind the AC tag.
If we're really luckly we'll find out again the week after too. 3 /.
It's back up for me as of 9:16 AM Australian Eastern Standards Time (Was out for around half an hour I think?)

"Your're fucking retarted." Well at least you tried I guess...
Sounds morelike an undocumented feature of SCO Unix to me.
Well it's still free in the same sense as Fedora et. al. in that you can download it here: http://www.novell.com/products/linuxprofessional/d ownloads/ftp/int_mirrors.html
Like most distros you can of course pay the money and get media + support. $99.95 is still pretty steep for this but you don't HAVE to pay for it.
The screenshots of a game made using the Doom 3 engine look like they come from a game using the Doom 3 engine. Wonders never cease.
Indeed, someone I know got 2 sunrays off ebay and has them running off a redhat enterprise server.

Why would you expect a faster connection AND a 200 gig allowance for only ten dollars a month more?

BSD is err....not dead?
Use links please, you fucking anonymous dickhead.
Only on slashdot could spending the weekend locked away in the basement cracking software and cybering on irc be called growing up.
