I tried NetNewsWire, but it seemed like it just gathered all the links for a blog/news-source and made me use its built in browser to view them. Maybe I just don't get it...
I can see more of a use in a corporate setting, however.
Another open source OS would be welcome. At the very least ideas and features can be examined and possibly implemented in the bigger players (Linuxes). But diversity is always good, and what does IBM have to lose?
Unless of course they are making a successor, but that doesn't seem very likely.
Wow! I sure am glad my great province of Ontario decided to get rid of all the coal plants in favor of ethanol plants! Otherwise we might not be able to pay more taxes and have less energy!
Good ol' Ontario politicians.
Yes but it badly needs standardization and enforcement..com,.net, and.org should be eliminated. I'd prefer everything to be a country code, or as you say, the.int TLD (which I didn't know about before you mentioned it)..gov should be.gov.us (and all governments use the.gov.countrycode for predictability).
Commercial entities can be.co.us,.co.uk, etc. What about non-commerciall entities? Do we really want.net and.org style back, or worse,.info,.biz,.xxx and so on. How about just organization.uk. Makes sense to me. Or organization.toronto.on.ca, as the old.ca domains used to be enforced.
I also prefer Tim Berners-Lee's idea to have the URL more like: http:com/amazon instead of www.amazon.com. http:org/slashdot, and so on.
None of this will ever happen, but I can dream for a would-have-been, can't i?
Right. Whatever you say. Windows is JUST as secure as Linux.
I don't think its that far from the truth, really. It's like painting.. it's the artist, not the brush. A competent system administrator can secure Windows and keep it secure, just as with Linux. An incompetent sysadmin will fail with both.
Of course, it could be said Windows makes it easier to be incompetent.
Slashdot Mirror
I still don't see the point for RSS.

Is this similar to the slashdot duping stories bug?
Maybe I'll find out in a couple days when this story hits again.

Just stop already with the TLDs.
In fact, get rid of them entirely. They aren't truly necessary except to maintain backwards compatability.
