  1. Re:Seamless? on OS Combat - Ubuntu Linux Versus Vista · · Score: 1

    Thanks for you post. Just did some reading, great stuff.

    Just tested fish: to access a remote server - brilliant :-)

  2. Re:Offtopic on Ian Murdock Joins Sun · · Score: 2, Funny

    I did about 5 or 6 years ago. I was running it on an old pentium pro machine.

    The server was stolen on Christmas eve, including an old keyboard and 14" monitor. The thief was so dumb, he did not notice the 2 new IBM desktop machines still in their boxes, or the 17" monitors also in their boxes in the same room and climbed back out the broken window next to the door that was not deadlocked.

    Must have been an exciting Christmas morning for some kid, getting a solaris server.

  3. Re:Give it to them. on Nuclear Tech Race Is On In Middle East · · Score: 1

    I'm an Australian. I would like to see a number of countries selling fuel rods including Australia as a major supplier of the raw product. For this to work the producers just have to only sell fuel rods and refuse to sell unprocessed uranium. If there is a competitive market for the supply of fuel rods and the storage of the nuclear waste countries will safe that their is ready supply for peaceful purposes.

    I agree. If the only way these countries can get uranium is in prepared fuel rods only to be replaced in exchange for spent fuel rods they would get their nuclear power with much lower risk of nuclear weapons production.

  5. Re:Scouts Honor.... on Boy Scouts Introduce Merit Badge For Not Pirating · · Score: 1

    In my experience most atheists do not see atheism as a religion. It is a lack of a belief in the existence of gods.

    It really depends on your definition of religion, if it involves the belief in the supernatural than atheism is out, if it is more general well everything is in.

    They just ask that you hold a religious belief.

    As an atheist I don't see this as an acceptable requirement. It is discrimination.

  7. Funny that this comes up now on Hypothetical Death Match - E-mail vs. the Web · · Score: 1

    I just spent 30 minutes in a chat board meeting (5 people in 3 continents) arguing that issues are better debated in a forum rather than email. The email camp won (4 to 1) because 'forums are too confusing for the average person'! I'd choose the web but my colleagues would choose email.

  8. Re:I'm a Web Developer on How Much Does Your Work Depend on the Internet? · · Score: 1

    I do a fair bit of web development myself and tend to get my best work done by going to a cafe with good coffee and no wireless. No email and no /. really lifts my productivity.
