Oh puh-lease! They accuse him of possible illegal activities and he's supposed to just turn the other cheek (no, his *other* cheeks) and take it? Fuck them. They could have approached this better. Any wrath brought upon them is their own fault.
Tell him to save the olive branch for when he's truly done something wrong.
t's the same way with the current space program. We're always putting world hunger second:P
Second? Gawd, I hope it's not *that* high on our list. I can think of a lot of things I want done first with *my* money. The rest of the world can take care of its own food needs.
Ugh. You must *love* casting variables... This would drive me nuts. It also removes the ability of an IDE to know member fn's/vars, as well as the ability of anyone to read your code...
That site may not be controlled by them. It's likely that that little stock-ticker thingy is out-sourced to another company who controls the ir.sco.com domain. I know my company has something like that.
It's probably just because of the demand for live concerts. Back in the not so old days, they all used playback. Now they're forced to sing live. How do you do that, while dancing aroud the stage, without missing a few notes?
You don't. That's what's so fun about a live show. You see mistakes, things done differently, new lyrics are sung sometimes, extra verses, etc. If you wanted things perfect, just listen to your CD of the band and look at a poster of them! Why must everything be perfect? Gawd, I remember going to Pink Floyd shows, and half the songs would be done differently from the album. Made the show really special. You saw and heard stuff that was original (probably different each night of the show!). Why would I just want to hear the CD I bought over again when I paid >$50 for the seat?
Because there is no 'trivial' way to do this in tcsh:
cmd 2>/dev/null
In tcsh you need to do some kludge like:
(cmd >/dev/tty ) >&/dev/null
The fact that you cannot redirect stderr independently of stdout has always pissed me off about *csh. I'd rather ksh or bash anyday. Actually, I like bash for my command line, and coding in ksh...
I know I know, if people said what I've said about the new world the US wouldn't be here.
But they *did* say it about the new world. All of the first voyages were coming the the new world looking for gold, passages to the east, etc. Only later was it for settling, and then it was out of religious persecution.
So I agree that we need a 'reason' to go to the Moon. Once we've got that, it's only a matter of time.
If you *read* the Gnu GPL, not that anybody does, it doesn't say that you must distribute source with the binaries. But that you must provide a means whereby the user can request the source code from you, and that you will give the source when requested. SCO could even charge you for the price of a medium on which to put the source and the price of mailing it to you. The catch here is that SCO would need to include a file or something that tells how to request the source, which I doubt they would do.
For some reason, everybody seems to think the GPL requires everything to be on a FTP site...
I am facing the fact that the exmple they showed didn't prove anything. Have you accepted that yet?
Face it: SCO has not *proved* a damned thing yet. Would you base your IT funding on unproven claims from SCO? If so, I have some code your work is infringing upon. No really, trust me. Would I make outrageous claims? You owe me big time. Theif.
Face it. There is stolen code in Linux. How much and how severe the value of the theft is to be determined but that there was theft is almost certain.
Sorry? The code snippet they show is from a 'malloc' implementation that is apparently much older than SysV, and also public domain! How is this 'stolen'?
I rather doubt that the public FTP server is the only location for all the code that was on the server. I mean, c'mon.
If it *was*, then these guys are a bunch of morons.
I think that is the greateset irony. When someone claims to be a genius yet spells the word genius wrong.
Isn't it though? The entire statement was sarcastic . You see, by claiming myself to be a 'highy paid genius' I was not necessarily claiming to be above normal intellect, but simply that much more intelligent than the person to whom I responded (seeing that I *get* the simple logic that less bad is good). Thereby moving them *down* rather than me *up*. Get it? I guess not...
Then buy a computer without the OS. What's so difficult about that?
Where do I find an OS-less thinkpad?
You assume that I have the choice on all machines to not have an OS installed.
Why *not* take the issue to court? After all, the binding EULA which MS would hold *you* too says that if you do not agree to its terms, then you are to be given a refund. MS wrote the frigging thing. If they don't like it, they can remove that portion of the license!

To redirect stderr to the same location as stdout use "2>&1". This 'binds' file descriptor 2 to the same location as 1.
For instance:
cmd > out.txt 2>&1
This will send all stderr to out.txt as well. NOTE: that is is important that 2>&1 come after 1 is redirected as well.
Yeah, I mean what the flang was the gribbit talking about? Werds and their spellings/meanings can be changed anytime I tang well want to!

Oh, wait. IHBT haven't I? Blast!
I hadn't seen that page (looked at the others). But, that still doesn't tell me how much RAM the system has.
He may not have the memory to do all that though. He doesn't mention what exactly he's running on (sounds like a Commodore, but I could be wrong).
The 'stack' refered to is typically the OSI stack. The TCP/IP protocols are built on top of other layers (being parts of the layers themselves).
See here for more info.
It's a mite difficult not to be paranoid after two of the largest buildings in the world are destroyed killing thousands...
*What* and idealist! Buddy, ever wonder why 'competition is good' for our economy? Hm? Think it would be any different on a national/global level?
National pride has done a lot to further progress.

You're bitching about a US-centric, US-run, US-owned site not catering to your specific whims, and all the while calling the US arrogant?
Sometimes no snide comment seems adequate...

Yes, less bad is good. But then, I guess I'm a highly paid genious so this sort of logic comes easily to me.
NiMH batteries are not 'equivalent' to their Alkaline counterparts. Alkaline AA batteries are 1.5 volts, whereas NiMH AA batteries provide 1.2 volts.
In most cases the difference doesn't matter, in some it may..
