Being an omni is inconsistent with the claim that he loved animals and hated those who hurt them. Unless you're completely psychotic, you don't abuse and vivisect those you love.
I doubt your Linux-du-jour CD would do much for the old computers I have: Sun's AXi's.
You forgot to add the bit about the noise from the MPAA's process server knocking on your door.
Anyone who downloads movies via bt on traceable lines is nuts.
Email, surfing CNN, and running SSH work just fine over my ISDN link.
Moving multi-gig files between my desktop and laptop is a different story.
Also, I'm guessing that you live in a one-room apartment, rather than in a sprawling house in a rural area. Faster wireless means a much greater physical range of useful throughput.
I've carried both laptops and snakes onto planes, once both at the same time.
Back when this service was announced, I looked everywhere for an indication of the cost. When I found none, and never flew on a plane that actually had it, I considered it a dead-end.
... except that the boxes aren't going to be identical hardware-wise, and short of an MS Windows box running Norton Ghost, what would you use to image them that would actually work?
My experience has been that phones typically have more than one connector, and that all are undocumented, so it's difficult to know where to plug in an external antenna. When I tried to set up an external antenna to see if I could get EVDO coverage at home, I couldn't find the appropriate adapter hardware.
If I remove 10,000 files in a directory, does that end up being one write, or 10,000? I've never seen this discussed wrt wear leveling -- or any list of which cards do/don't implement this.
Coax isn't made out of copper?
Maybe those tax breaks got coax or fiber to *your* home, but not to mine. Abysmal performance? If you're talking DSL or cable, then in fact you have way more performance than you have any real need for at home. Try living with @#$@@#$#@ ISDN when everyone attaches 10 meg of photos to email and every web site plays music and has a Flash intro.
Darwinports has the same fundamental problem that Fink does: someone will slap in an initial version of package. They'll set it up badly, and never update it.
Many cases that are called Alzheimer's are in fact CJD.
Rather than looking for a drug to counteract the effects of an unnatural diet, why not do something radical and simply stop mistaking animals for food?
World hunger is substantially due to:
o the spread of modern medicine without a decrease in the birth rate
o mistaking animals for food
o living where food can't be grown
Maybe if RMS stepped out of character and did something radical like TAKE A SHOWER, COMB HIS HAIR, and NOT GET HIGH first he might be taken more seriously.
I signed up for Verizon's EVDO service last September with no problems at all. I wanted the Kyocera card, which they had to ship me. The service worked wonderfully in town, but I discovered that at home I only have a [marginal] 1x signal, with no EVDO coverage. I'd hoped to use it for primary Internet connectivity, but regretfully returned it all. To those who expect to be able to run warez/epz servers for $19.99 a month the $60/80 for VZW's EVDO service are outrageous, but for what does I find it to be quite reasonable. I'd gladly pay that instead of the $82 / mo my BRI costs plus $36.95 / mo for transit. My only other option would be a Broadwing DS1 at ~$450/mo.
Not everyone lives in a shitty concrete-covered suburb. The "rest of the world" does in fact extend beyond your block.
HAM is quite nearly extinct now. In another 10 years it'll be gone entirely.

>and remember being impressed by his love of animals, and his hatred of those who hurt them. BS. He was an omnivore.

Just seeing if anyone's paying attention :D

Methinks you've never had CERT call you because your "out of the box" Linux heap got pwned and was attacking others. /me is tired of linux fanboy kids.

Not trendy enough for you already, eh chief?
Kazaa is still a free thing, right? So WTF are they going to get $100m?

My brother was a French and Latin teacher. He was a Reagan/Bush fanboy and ate chicken-fried steaks. Hardly humane.

It's called compression. Look into it.

Bus speed is irrelevant for almost all real-world tasks.
