"In any case, it has been over a year, and D-Link has not got the kernel right on the 323 (and all they have to do is compile a kernel > 2.6.6 and ship it in a firmware"
Errr... the 1.03 firmware uses kernel 2.6.12. With regards to not being able to upgrade the kernel - you can install debian on it (and no I don't mean as a chroot, although that is also possible). I've had none of these problems, although I only use nfs so the samba problem may exist - however, there is a howto called "bettersamba" on the wiki I mentioned above.
Have a look at the dns-323 wiki, specifically look for the fun_plug as that will add ssh functionality to the dns-323, and with ssh you can scp so no need to sftp... although you can run that also. There are also howto's on running debian in a chroot on the 323 so you can apt-get what you like.
As a note to anyone who's looking to use this somewhere where they want quiet - the dns-323 itself is very quiet... but try and find quiet disks also! I forgot to look in to this and baught some rather "clunky" seagates....

"This might not sound that bad, until you realise that nl2br() can appear a lot in large projects, there's no way to get the old behaviour of nl2br() back, and if you have a decent QA process in place, you'd be being notified of the errors across all the websites you maintain."
If you had a decent QA process in place you wouldn't upgrade all of your prod servers in one go without testing the upgrade in dev first.
Wow I am totally shocked that everyone above is saying this is a bad thing! The reason they were not allowing any kinds of liquids on flights is that they were expecting liquid explosives to be used, to me this makes a lot of sense and I feel comforted that the secuirty services actually knew what was going on and stopped it.
With regards to liquid medicines mentioned above, they are allowed on if they're essential (e.g: insulin), however they must be tested for authenticity.
I can't believe so many people are saying that not allowing this stuff is limiting their freedom, sod that! I'd prefer to be restricted and alive than free and dead! Being 6 feet under is not free... unless you truly believe in heaven and you've been a good boy/girl!
"Eh, Sorry Pinky, but here in America, where these computers were born, we put the month first, so today is 8/2/6!"
Why do Americans think they invented everything? The computer was thought up by Babbage in the 1800s, and the first computer with electronic memory was invented at Manchester uni in 1948 and was called "The Baby" - although you could probably claim any nation had the first working computer depending how you define a computer right back to the Chinese/Babylonians with the abacus.
"And by your reasoning MSDOS also has 100% marketshare! As does Linux, the BSDs, hell even Minix has 100% market share, as they run on all x86 PC hardware."
I'm not disagreeing, but the x86 market? What's that? Surely a useful market to look at is the [home] desktop market, the enterprise server market etc? Looking at the x86 market would, for example, exclude old Mac's from the home desktop market It's like saying Sun have 100% of the SPARC market! (Although actually Fujitsu make SPARCS also).
I don't think they're scum at all. The source is still available from their own webstite, all they're charging for is the support, Point2Play, access to their forums and the right to vote for what games you'd like to see supported next. I run the cvs (which I got from their website) and run it on FC5 and it didn't cost me a penny - and it's legal!
And there's a new game from the same developers called "bang! howdy" (google it if you're interested). I tried it for a laugh and I was quite impressed with the graphics & performance considering it's java based - I thought the game play was a bit lacking though personally, but I'm not a fan of the 5 minute per match, rinse, repeat kind of games.
"Divers can do a safe ascent without air from more than 60 feet"
Without an octopus I'd say you could have a safe emergency ascent at a depth more like 30m (~100ft) which is usually the max recommended dive level for recreational diving - you could be safe deeper if there's a spare tank hanging at your decompression depth. The safe depth for an emergency ascent with an octopus is only limited by the air your buddy has in his tank.
I've been using it quite a bit today and it's still up now, you sure it's not a routing problem?

"I'm always annoyed when people bash SUVs and ignore minivans."
I think the reasoning for this is that SUV's are quite often used by people who don't really need the extra space where as minivans are used for comercial purposes.

"because when it comes right down to it, they're safer. Sadly, the reason they're safer is they destroy anyone or anything not in an equivalent vehicle."
Actually there have been a lot of studies that have shown the opposite, for example have a look at the chart on page three of this pdf. You'll see that in this study the amount of deaths of the primary driver per million sold is higher in SUV's than large cars, midsize cars, minivans and imported luxury cars. Compact & subcompact are worse for the primary driver - obviously tin cans with a motor don't handle accidents well! Pickup trucks are the second worst and I'm suprised they're not more similar to SUV's. The worst is sports cars, possibly a combination of the historically bad handling of american sports cars and the fact that 150-200mph on a suburban road is usualy a bad idea!

Oh stop talking about thinks you obviously know nothing about - try this if you want to be proven wrong:

Errr yes it does... that's why it's called a suite instead of just a browser or e-mail client. From mozilla.com: "Web-browser, advanced e-mail and newsgroup client, IRC chat client, and HTML editing made simple -- all your Internet needs in one application."
