I think the reason a lot of these people use Windows Servers is because they get to point and click on icons, and are somewhat intimidated by a freakin' unix console.. which is fine.. i understand.. however, I bet if they had any clue about great Webadmin programs like Ensim and Plesk, they'd change their minds GREATLY about using Linux, or Unix as a server.. especially since its free.. c'mon.. its not that hard.. essentially you're just pissing your money away..
From the article: 'Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and Linux distributions from "niche" open source vendors, are offline more and longer than either Windows or Unix competitors, the survey said. The reason:
So lemme get this straight.. For all the Anti-Google people out there, cmon.. Evil, would be pulling out of China, and not letting the Chinese citizens have access to the greatest search engine of all time.. a modern day Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy.. Taking that away from the Chinese citizens would be evil indeed.. Google created their business right here in the good ol' USA.. Where they are free to run the business of their choice.. Certainly you cannot expect the same capitalistic freedoms in a country where the company wasn't created?? the Chinese are lucky enough to even have Google at all! stop blaming Google for christs sake.. imagine how pissed off the citizens would be if they were no longer allowed to use Google..
to me, its nice having a character from day one that displays their own way of evolution.. I have no problem with "newer" versions of Mario games coming out.. they're all great.. However, remakes on old ones do get a little hairy from time to time.. I'm not really in to that whole thing.. However, playing Mario 1+2+3 for SNES when they came out with Super Mario Allstars was pretty fun.. they enhanced the music and the graphics.. And yea it was much more eye appealing, and fun to play considering you got to see some real cool new things..
i think that when you're having one of those days when ya wanna play some Mario 1+2+3, then why not play the most updated version with all the cool new things? it merely exists because it means to replace the older versions.. In a way, to keep the game "alive" they almost need to do things like this to keep it appealing for young gamers.. a good portion of the younger generations don't appreciate the old school pixelated games.. much like certain new wave music fags don't like the sound of an old studio jazz recording with one mic..
basically, although I'm not a fan of remakes, I can understand why they would do this.. and i'll most certainly download it for my DS emulator..
I definitely think they should all have an IDE.. I mean, they give you the ability to use your harddrives, your cdroms, and other specialty drives.. its a necessity for computing.. although, I'd recommend switching to SATA for your HD at some point in time..
I definitely agree that they are way too strict on what is blocked.. I work for a little ebay business and I constantly send out emails to hundreds of customers on a weekly basis, all from an email address that begins with sales@
now obviously, a lot of spam does come from things like sales@domain.com, but I wish there was something that could simply cipher an email message for extremely improper written english! "Du U WUnT SUM EPHEDRA?? HOW ABooT SUm VIaGrxcA??
i mean, once they figure out that, it would probably block out 80% of all that damn Romulan spam... regardless, I've had some very important customer emails that were blocked thanks to Earthlink and AOL, and thanks to my sales@ address..
maybe ebay needs to stop increasing their listings fees for one.. stop requiring your powersellers to switch to bogus pieces of software after using a different piece of software for over 4 years for two.. and to start actually making my business money for three.. none of things will be stopped.. ahh well
wow i'm looking forward to metamoderating the hell of the dumb bastard that flamebait moderated man.. whats a matter? have a problem with opinions? you must use SuSE..
hell yea.. i installed Dapper last night, and its freakin perfect.. a little tweakin here and there with the gdm.conf and gdm.conf-custom, but other than that, worked like a friggin charm!!
I personally think their little names are quite clever.. who cares anyway.. the damn distro works better than any crap RPM based distro ANY day.. i'm GLAD to see they're implementing Xgl in this big release.. shit is gonna start hitting the fan.. i finally got Xgl to work with my cloned twinview setup, and man its unbelievable.. the fact that Ubuntu is running behind this nice Xgl interface, makes it even BETTER.. i'll continue to recommend this distro, and future distros, to all my friends, and to any one who doesn't want to spend $200 on a CRAP OS..
Welcome to the Sun Secure Global Desktop demonstration server... well, it was the demonstration server until it got mentioned on Slashdot - now it's only demonstrating how we didn't size it with this sort of load in mind.
Probably best to check back in in a couple of days - it should be available again...
see what we can do if we just work together???????
I just installed Dapper Drake last night, and damn am I impressed now that I finally got xgl and compiz to work thanks to www.debians.org's howto.. I highly recommend it to anyone.. i think this is really going to take off.. they oughta work on implementing xgl with the release of 6.06.. make it standard.. everyone needs to be using this.. and man, it makes your friends who use Windows, want to cry..
I wonder if any of this has to do with Novell's Development on the xgl 3d desktop accelerated X server.. it does look pretty freakin' amazing.. I don't think thats the main reason of course Oracle would be interested in Novell and Linux.. But I wouldn't be surprised after seeing a demonstration of xgl, that there was some pretty excited people out there..
thanks for the info.. very interesting comment.. I had a feeling someone was already working on that.. security is a damn good point.. there's obviously quite a bit they need to take in to consideration for upgrading.. hell, i'm still waiting for a reason to even buy a newer PDA.. still seems like its pointless without some kind of wireless internet.. seems like the best deal out there for anything remotely close to what I want, is the T-Mobile Sidekick MDA thing that recently came out.. the only problem is, I really don't want to be associated with the damn sidekick, and t-mobile's service kinda sucks around here..
for now, I'll continue to play DoomCE and Missle Command on my trusty HP 660LX that I've had since 1998...
phones are stupid.. PDA's won't die.. they'll just get better when Wireless broadband becomes a standard all across the globe.. especially when someone simply ports GoogleTalk over to Mobile Windows or even Linux for that matter.. i'll just use that for phone calls.. sounds better anyway haha.. bascially, i don't think they need to be innovating the phone.. they need to be phasing them out in my opinion..

good point my friend.. regardless of whether or not Gore is right, we still need to be taking care of our fucking planet for christ's sake..
I could be wrong, but isn't this the year 2006?

I think the fashion police should be questioning the crazy bastard who would spend £375 on any laptop with that horrible Teal color..

and yes i'm aware that Novell didn't actually develop xgl. just made it better..
