Some thing the answer is to ignore it, and the environment will adapt. Someone tell that to the people in New Orleans or any other coastal city that is vuln to hurricanes.
Will this be a problem for support? They'll now have to support this much more hardware, and will have to have a fork of their OS X code; or will all code be done for Intel procs now, and 'just work (tm)' via the rosetta on powerpc procs? I think they'd have to do this, but still, I think it's going to taint the marketing a bit. Still, this hasn't been done before, and it's in sits like this that Apple usually does well. As long as production can keep up...
I completely agree with this. While I joined the BSD-Cert mailing list, I've always thought this, if someone can install/run FreeBSD for any amount of time, they know what they're doing. I've run Linux based servers for about 6 years, but BSD just for the past year, and I've learned a ton in that little time. I'm not saying Linux is not as good, far from it, but BSD just has a different way of dealing with things that, to me, just feels more logical. I won't be replacing Ubuntu on the desktop, or Gentoo on my secondary server, but for now I'm really enjoying FreeBSD for my main server with OpenBSD running the firewall.
Now if I could just find work admining BSD or Linux servers, I think I could be content for some time.
Agreed, I love Mailscanner, it just works perfectly for me. It's been updated, latest version is 4.44, which came out 1st August 2005. I installed it from ports in freebsd, and it worked with little modification. Highly recommended.
I'm using Mailscanner on my mail server, it passes mail through ClamAV (which scored 1/6 on this test) and then BitDefender - the command line version for FreeBSD (which scored 6/6). Perhaps I don't need both...

This would have been more impressive if they had signatures that said "all your base belong to me!" or "in soviet russia, grits pour down portman!" or "/* place sig here */" or the like.
Lucene providing search engine for Hula

the Lucene (http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene) indexer will be inplememtned within Hula the web and cal application (http://hula-project.org/Hula_Server) made from open sourced Novell NetMail code. Samples of the search engine have been comitted and should start functioning within weeks, just in time for the new cal UI, which you can now view a demo of here: http://nat.org/2005/august/hula.html That's looking to be an amazing app...
I run e17 (16.999.whatever) on Ubuntu from a HOWTO available in the forums. There is a.deb repository you can tie into, so now even the 'Ubuntu update' auto thingy even finds updates to those, so it's part of my system now. It's very slick, feels like the speed of Fluxbox but the look of, well...nothing really; it's in a class by itself.
I saw this last night on CNN, and it's ridiculous. It's one thing to have a DVD made showcasing the person's life (although I think that's cheesy, I think it's much more practical than this video in a tombstone dealio) but come on...when graves are vandalized now tombstones are pushed over. With video screens it'll just take a jab of a rock at the screen to ruin them, then some gum in the old socket for the headphones (or lock if they lock em) not to mention the hacking opportunties this will provide...sky's the limit on this one. Personally I hope creamtion continues on as becoming more and more common. Think about it, we came to live as dust, we should leave the same way. How audacious to think we should own a piece of land permanantly.
Oh, I completely agree, on my home web/mail server I've used Horde/IMP, squirrelmail, openExchange, and a host of other PHP/IMAP/MYSQL based email solutions; Hula is none of these. It includes it's own web server, mail server, and can even do it's own virus and spam scanning via Spamassasin and Clamav - but all of the Hula backend is written in C (not PHP) and uses it's own database backend, so it's tons faster than any of the PHP based solutions and scales accordingly. In the works are LDAP too, so again, this is a different way of handling an old problem.
That it's a proprietary solution, that it uses a hammer to pound a small nail, that it tries to be everything for everybody; just b/c it's the 'standard' doesn't mean it can't be done more effiently.
Personally I think these solutions only mimic the problems that Exchange had, why not go a different direction? My money is on Hula, the great open source project launched by Novell with 20,000 lines of code from their proven NetMail. New versions of NetMail will be built from Hula's codebase, so it will be used in large companies/implementations. It's come a LONG way since February, and I have it running on FreeBSD currently. If interested, hit the mailing list, and we'll help you out.

Greylisting solves 95% for me - seriously. Try Postgrey for an easy, built-in solution to use with Postfix - it works like crazy.
It's what I've done at my past two gigs, instead of ppl passing around Word documents everytime there's some small change, I publish all of my proopsals and docs on an in house Wiki. For software dev, I think it's all you need to share ideas, forget about printing out for a client; it's not needed in this capacity. I long for the days of 'dumb' terminal replacing the 2000$ computers every employee 'has' to have. Just a dumb term with a broswer, some AJAX action on the server - email handled through a Hula like client/server, devs open shells to the server(s) to do coding...ahhh...

The point was for other countries to use more resources that they have and would otherwise go to waste. As for instructions, there's probably many ways to shore up and frame the insides of the furnuture, and it sounds like this guy has figured some of them out; why not send complete directions on how to make efficient use of materials? Your attempt at trolling missed the point (or perhaps that was your point)
Seriously, this should be considered for 3rd world countries; instead of companies throwing out boxes in those countries, they could follow some of these designs and hand out cardboard with instructions on how people could use it as furniture. I'll bet once a frame is built it would be nothing to put some lightweight padding and fabric on it, making it appear as more traditional furn.
Plus I like the guys' hair, once I get outta this fortune 500 corpy-corp place I work I want to go that route, save red (Run Lola Run) not pink.
Now instead of a blue screen, you can have a blue screen with a VMware window displaying the (never stops spinning!) beach ball busy cursor icon! And remember, it's no longer Ctrl-alt-delete - it's 'Force Quit'!
Good to know, I assume that to be the case, but damn, if he didn't make a huge distro and then just detach himself from it. He must be humble and proud.
