Webmin is written in Perl, not as nice to use as cpanel, but better on the security front. There is a module for it called Virtualmin, which gives you almost cpanel-like capabilities, but it is still rather crude by comparison - good enough for the average geek, though not good enough for the average pointy-clicky MSsoftie.
Hmm, bear in mind that Telus uses a VOIP backbone (an by logical extension I would assume most other Telcos). So all long distance landline calls are VOIP most of the way anyway.
Hmm, lessee. The earth is about 24000km in circumference, so an hour is about 1000km and a minute would be about 17km. So 325 cubic minutes (5000 cubic kilometers) per foot would result in a rather high compression ratio. I can feel a big bang coming on...;)
Electrostatic and ionic filters really do work. They are commonly used to clean up the smoke stacks of factories. However, to be effective, you probably need something a lot bigger than an Ionic Breeze, unless you put one in each and every room of your home.
You can actually buy electrostatic furnace filters at any hardware store. Those things are just a mesh and foam combination of an electrostatic plastic - a kind of plastic that is always charged - similar to a permanent magnet, but of the electrical kind. The result is that fine dust particles that would normally pass through a filter, will stick to the thing. They are good at removing tobacco smoke, pollen and cat dander. Cleaning them is hard though - need to let them soak in a bathtub with dishwasher and rinse with lots of water.
The negative ions generated by an Ionic Breeze unit, also causes dust in the air to clump and settle on the floor, where your vacuum cleaner can get it, so it removes more dust from the air, than is apparent from just looking at the collection plates.
Yup, they actually work, due to two reasons. The ions are generated at the tip of a bunch of needles and accellerates away, causing an air stream, so that incoming air can be filtered. Also, the negative ions causes dust particles in the air to clump and settle onto the floor of the room, where your vacuum cleaner can get them.
The best devices use a combination of these effects and use a fan to force air through an electrostatic filter and inject negative ions into the outgoing airstream, to spread around the room and make dust clump and settle and get stuck in the electrostatic filter better.
I have two Bionair units in my home and it really helps to control my cat allergy - my solution to my wife's love of a gawddam cat...
Hmm, well, both NetBSD and OpenBSD suck when compared to any current Linux distribution. It is a Catch-22: They have no developers because they suck and they suck because they have no developers.
Geezo, 50,000 support jobs. So MS is saying that it will cost the EU about five billion dollars a year to support Vista? Maybe the EU should rather switch to Linux.
Linux has been ready for the desktop for a few years. I'm using it on desktops and laptops with no issues. MS Windows on the other hand, has so many security issues, I have no dea when that will be ready for general use, probably never.
In Canada, we empty out the old age homes to get senior citizens to do most of the ballot running and counting. I guess the trouble in the States is that they don't have enough old people who can actually read and count - you know - public schools - no old geezer left behind...;)
Yup, however, there is no law that states that they *have* to vote about every gawddam thing on the same day, in the same year. The complexity of their system is of their own volition and can be undone. The reason the Canadian system is so much simpler, is because we vote about different things in different elections on different days in different years...
Unfortunately, it is not possible to bulk erase modern hard disk platters. You would need a degauser that is so powerful, that it will physically destroy the platters anyway - bend them - and you will end up with one heck of a electricity bill. Therefore, you can just as well do away with the magnetics and destroy them physically with a big hammer.

Canadian Human Rights Act, H-6, An Act to extend the laws in Canada that proscribe discrimination
2. The purpose of this Act is to extend the laws in Canada to give effect, within the purview of matters coming within the legislative authority of Parliament, to the principle that all individuals should have an opportunity equal with other individuals to make for themselves the lives that they are able and wish to have and to have their needs accommodated, consistent with their duties and obligations as members of society, without being hindered in or prevented from doing so by discriminatory practices based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, family status, disability or conviction for an offence for which a pardon has been granted.
5. It is a discriminatory practice in the provision of goods, services, facilities or accommodation customarily available to the general public
(a) to deny, or to deny access to, any such good, service, facility or accommodation to any individual, or
(b) to differentiate adversely in relation to any individual,
on a prohibited ground of discrimination.
6. It is a discriminatory practice in the provision of commercial premises or residential accommodation
(a) to deny occupancy of such premises or accommodation to any individual, or
(b) to differentiate adversely in relation to any individual,
on a prohibited ground of discrimination.
"disability" means any previous or existing mental or physical disability and includes disfigurement and previous or existing dependence on alcohol or a drug;

So, why do you use cPanel and not something better?

No, much stronger than that. They use Double DES.
I suppose - got to legitimize the boardroom spies in the interest of national security.

Huh? I ran OpenOffice, Firefox and KDE on my 600MHz Stinkpad with 256MB RAM. Worked fine. Would still have worked fine if some asshat didn't steal it.
Hmm, but hotdog trees may be very popular one day.
Nuclear? That comes comes from the previous version of Sol, but it is generally considered a primary source of energy.
