DaemonFCjust a simple shell scriptFeb 08 04:35
DaemonFCautomate the repetitive crap you have to do otherwiseFeb 08 04:35
DaemonFCcubezzz, A 500,000 line script that relies on JAVA, Mono, TK, Perl, and Bashisms at onceFeb 08 04:36
DaemonFCmuahahahaaaaaaaFeb 08 04:36
DaemonFCpeople are using Mono to create incredibly resource hungry apps that don't do muchFeb 08 04:37
DaemonFCI've noticed thatFeb 08 04:37
cubezzzI almost expected VB script :)Feb 08 04:38
DaemonFCI think a secondary goal of Mono is to make so many Linux apps need it that Linux is useless on an old PCFeb 08 04:38

DaemonFC70 MB more RAMFeb 08 04:41
DaemonFCwell, Mono proponents are arguing for the proliferation of Mono versions of everything because it saves a few megabytes on the diskFeb 08 04:43
DaemonFCbut look how much more RAM these things useFeb 08 04:43

DaemonFCUbuntu is freaking out and trying to figure out how to make money after burning venture capital since 2004Feb 08 11:49
cubezzzwow, the "new" dlink I bought was from 2007Feb 08 11:50
DaemonFCthere's ways to make money without becoming dishonest, and I'd like to say that Asay's potential damage is probably mitigated by the fact that he's just one personFeb 08 11:50
DaemonFCalso, the former Microsoft/Novell people, most people are just as loyal as their next paycheck guaranteesFeb 08 11:51
DaemonFCthey aren't on Microsoft's/Novell's salary now, so who knows?Feb 08 11:51
DaemonFCthe Yahell by default thing was probably an isolated incidentFeb 08 11:52
cubezzzwhat about people who volunteer?Feb 08 11:52
cubezzzthey can still be loyal to a causeFeb 08 11:52
DaemonFCcubezzz, They're working for someone for salaryFeb 08 11:52
DaemonFCit's not like you eek out a living by volunteering and not holding a for-pay jobFeb 08 11:53
DaemonFCthe biggest threat for Ubuntu is not being profitable for CanonicalFeb 08 11:54
cubezzzdependsFeb 08 11:54
cubezzzyou could already be richFeb 08 11:54
cubezzzthen "working for a paycheque" losing it's appealFeb 08 11:54
cubezzzlosesFeb 08 11:54
DaemonFCtrueFeb 08 11:54
schestowitzThese talks annoy me........Feb 08 11:55
schestowitz"Going forward...."Feb 08 11:55
DaemonFCShuttleworth didn't fork over millions of dollars to Ubuntu to start some kind of non-profit thingFeb 08 11:55
schestowitz"Innovations....."Feb 08 11:55
DaemonFCit was venture capitalFeb 08 11:55
schestowitz"Best of breed..." :-)Feb 08 11:55
DaemonFCyou know, shell out money now as an investmentFeb 08 11:55
DaemonFCinvestment = risk (You could lose your ass, you might make more money)Feb 08 11:55
DaemonFCReally, if it wasn't for the annoyingly long and unpredictable span between Debian releases, Ubuntu would have no reason to existFeb 08 11:57
DaemonFCand that release span is due to supporting everything with any kind of CPU equally even if only a few people have that CPUFeb 08 11:57
DaemonFCand they're about to make things worse by declaring Debian/kFreeBSD a supported configurationFeb 08 11:58
DaemonFCprobably the worst thing they can do when they're already struggling to maintain 12 branches of Debian Linux B-)Feb 08 11:58
DaemonFCsomething failing to build on some crusty old architecture with three users on Earth could hold up the release for people on x86Feb 08 11:59
cubezzzwell, it's nice I got my router's source code at leastFeb 08 12:00
cubezzz69 megs :)Feb 08 12:01
DaemonFCUbuntu not supporting anything but x86 and X86-64 in the mainstream release allows predictable 6 month releases that Debian can't promisFeb 08 12:01
DaemonFC*promiseFeb 08 12:01
DaemonFCand that has a lot of appeal Feb 08 12:01
cubezzzok, about Ubuntu...Feb 08 12:01
cubezzzI'm sorry to say I don't care for itFeb 08 12:01
cubezzzthere are better distrosFeb 08 12:01
DaemonFCUbuntu is easy to install, easy to use, and easy to grab software for, and there's fewer "What the fuck!?!?" bugs than most other distrosFeb 08 12:02
DaemonFCit's one of the better ones anywayFeb 08 12:02
cubezzzwhat I would like is a distro specifically for developersFeb 08 12:02
cubezzzmehFeb 08 12:03
DaemonFCUbuntu probably does a lot of things better than any other distroFeb 08 12:03
DaemonFCPPA is my favorite, and yeah it's like OpenSuse build service with less chance of conflictsFeb 08 12:04
cubezzzI actually complained to my ISP about mono-culture a few days agoFeb 08 12:06
cubezzzthey had some Sparc boxes they weren't even usingFeb 08 12:06
cubezzzeverything running was intelFeb 08 12:06
DaemonFCmehFeb 08 12:07
DaemonFCX86-64 is more cost effective in many casesFeb 08 12:07
DaemonFCbut yeah, having capable hardware laying around is stupidFeb 08 12:07
cubezzzX86 is a power pigFeb 08 12:07
DaemonFCcubezzz, That matters on mobile gadgets more than a server rackFeb 08 12:08
cubezzzI would have liked to play around on the sparc thoughFeb 08 12:08
DaemonFCit makes so little difference on a server rack, that it's not even worth consideringFeb 08 12:08
cubezzzmore heat = more hardware failuresFeb 08 12:08
cubezzzmore power = more heatFeb 08 12:09
DaemonFCI've been using X86-64 since the hardware was outFeb 08 12:09
sebsebsebUbuntu is well  it will becomeFeb 08 12:09
DaemonFCin my desktops anywayFeb 08 12:09
sebsebsebthe only serious proper desktop competition to Microsoft maybeFeb 08 12:09
sebsebsebthere's Apple now, but they are a jokeFeb 08 12:09
sebsebsebthey do not compete properly against WindowsFeb 08 12:09
sebsebsebthat was meant to be above, might becomeFeb 08 12:10
DaemonFCin fact, I switched to Linux in part because XP had no X86-64 support at all for a while and when it did, there was piss poor driver supportFeb 08 12:10
cubezzzDaemonFC, tell me, do you have anything non Intel?Feb 08 12:10
sebsebsebpretty likely I think as time goes on, unless  mobile devices start to replace the desktop for many big timeFeb 08 12:10
*kentma has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)Feb 08 12:10
DaemonFCcubezzz, you mean non-x86? No.Feb 08 12:10
sebsebsebsome think Desktop Linux will never gain a more proper market shareFeb 08 12:10
cubezzzhehFeb 08 12:10
cubezzzmono-culture wins againFeb 08 12:10
sebsebseband they have their reasons for that,  how distros aren't all compatible with each other etcFeb 08 12:10
DaemonFCI just really don't even care about non-x86 stuff, it makes a terrible desktop choiceFeb 08 12:11
cubezzznot only are you intel, you're wintelFeb 08 12:11
DaemonFCmainly because you're not going to have Flash, you can't use WineFeb 08 12:11
cubezzzhahaha, so what?Feb 08 12:11
sebsebsebright maybe so, but even so, take just Ubuntu for example, it seems there are people trying it like every day, that are wanting to get away from WindowsFeb 08 12:11
cubezzzyou think I care about flash?Feb 08 12:11
sebsebseboh I was reading stuff earlier about open source and free software,   the names, the differences etcFeb 08 12:12
cubezzzflash is the scourge of the internetFeb 08 12:12
sebsebsebI am thinking ok that's nice for us geeks to read about, but  average computer users don't care about stuff like that, they just want software that works for  what they want to do on a computerFeb 08 12:12
cubezzzmore binary blob-o-maniaFeb 08 12:13
sebsebseboh and you guys can say Mono is bad and such at times, but  what I just said applys to that as well,  averag computer users woudn't care,  they just want a program that does what they want to do on a computerFeb 08 12:13
sebsebsebthat's who Ubuntu is starting to target more now days,  the same target audiance Microsoft have, except they already have that market when it comes to Windows and OfficeFeb 08 12:14
sebsebsebUbuntu is  getting a bit hrm,   getting better in some ways, and worse in others, but it's still a good one for new Desktop Linux usersFeb 08 12:15
cubezzzpeople are feel to use whatever they want Feb 08 12:15
cubezzzbut my ISP, that's another thing altogetherFeb 08 12:16
cubezzzthey _have_ to try to support everythingFeb 08 12:16
cubezzzand they really try hard to do thatFeb 08 12:16
cubezzzsome person wants to use Ubuntu, fineFeb 08 12:17
cubezzzbetter than doze at leastFeb 08 12:17
sebsebsebif you don't like Ubuntu much well that's your choice cubezzz  and if as a result you don't help people with Ubuntu again your choice.  However some/many of us will help people with Ubuntu, beause it's a nice and good thing to do,  but also since maybe it will make a bit of a difference some how.  Do something that goes against the Windows market share.   If they go down to about 60%  Windows should imrpove quite a bit.Feb 08 12:17
cubezzzwell I like Ubuntu more than doze :)Feb 08 12:18
cubezzzit's a matter of degreeFeb 08 12:18
sebsebsebI started typing that before the doze thingFeb 08 12:18
sebsebsebsome people  use Linux, because they want freedomFeb 08 12:18
sebsebsebthey care about freedom,  they want freedom to succeddFeb 08 12:18
sebsebsebeFeb 08 12:18
sebsebseba lotFeb 08 12:18
sebsebsebeven if it meant Linux failsFeb 08 12:18
sebsebsebwhat are you guys?Feb 08 12:19
sebsebsebDo you want software freedom to be much more of a success,  even if it meant Linux failed?Feb 08 12:19
cubezzzFreedom is importantFeb 08 12:20
cubezzzbut I don't see it as an either/or propositionFeb 08 12:21
sebsebsebschestowitz: I don't know how you do it, it seems you go on loads of links  pretty much every day, as well as type stuff for your blog.   I am finding it hard to keep up to date with all the Linux news I want to read, and I got quite a lot of time at the moment really.Feb 08 12:21

sebsebseb2.4 ????Feb 08 12:22
cubezzzsebsebseb, I used to like Unix System V but I wouldn't touch it nowFeb 08 12:22
cubezzzsame with Linux, if something a lot better came along, I'd probably switch to thatFeb 08 12:23
sebsebsebcubezzz: Ok  uhmm I don't really know much about Unix, but why are you saying that?Feb 08 12:23

cubezzzdead OS = no developersFeb 08 12:23
cubezzzsame with AmigaDOS (although there's a few diehards still)Feb 08 12:24
sebsebsebwell Microsoft is getting a bit dead as well now days really, as in important people in the past, a lot of them have leftFeb 08 12:24
sebsebsebI read something about that earlierFeb 08 12:24
sebsebsebwell it was partly about thatFeb 08 12:24
cubezzzyes indeedFeb 08 12:24
cubezzzthey could dieFeb 08 12:24

MinceR...for youFeb 08 15:37
DaemonFCI think GNOME is really taking off while KDE is more worried about how you can pin a Facebook crapplet to the desktopFeb 08 15:37
MinceRgnome is taking off? that's newFeb 08 15:37
DaemonFC(open a browser and type www.facebook.com, hit enter?)Feb 08 15:37
MinceRoh, i knowFeb 08 15:38
MinceR"gnome is taking off" more options and menu items from your screen!Feb 08 15:38
DaemonFCthe only difference between a KDE crapplet and a Vista crapplet is the Vista ones somehow manage to suck worse because they're not only useless but many of them fail to do anything or crash the sidebar :DFeb 08 15:38
DaemonFCWhy are they even wasting time implementing non-features to try to mock-up Vista and OS X?Feb 08 15:39
DaemonFCit's just pointless cargo cult mentality that assumes if you implement all the stupid shit found in Mac and Windows, users will comeFeb 08 15:39
DaemonFCin the mean time there's like thousands of bugs affecting things real users care aboutFeb 08 15:40

FurnaceBoyDaemonFC: I am aware of the different rhetorical uses of "illegal alien" and "undocumented person".

FurnaceBoyoiaohm: they should therefore be bred for meat! win-win!Feb 08 22:56
oiaohmSo no major risks to them over eating at all other than being majorly strong.Feb 08 22:56
oiaohmIt not just cultureFeb 08 22:56
oiaohmDNA is a very big factor.Feb 08 22:57
shreddarI call BS on the DNA excuseFeb 08 22:57
oiaohmNext is diabetes in mother before child birth.Feb 08 22:57
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: well, all depends who you're talking about.Feb 08 22:58
oiaohmThat tricks the DNA that you are going stavation area.Feb 08 22:58
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: obesity isn't a problem in most of the worldFeb 08 22:58
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: starvation is ...Feb 08 22:58
oiaohmSo raise body weight of person.Feb 08 22:58
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: it would be wonderful if children learned good eating.Feb 08 22:59
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: but they won't learn it from TV Feb 08 22:59
oiaohmNotice USA has had high class 2 dibeites compared to everyone else for a long time.Feb 08 22:59
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: it's much more profitable to sell you a Diet Coke than a tomatoFeb 08 22:59
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: yes. did you see "Food, Inc." ?Feb 08 22:59
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: some of the causes of that epidemic are covered thereFeb 08 22:59
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: who knew that eating junk all the time was bad for you???Feb 08 22:59
oiaohmClass 2 dibeities is caused by being over weight.Feb 08 23:00
oiaohmand other factors.Feb 08 23:00
oiaohmIssue here its a multiplying problem.Feb 08 23:00
FurnaceBoyyes.Feb 08 23:00
FurnaceBoyit's systemic, top to bottom.Feb 08 23:00
FurnaceBoyit's very profitable to sell food that will kill youFeb 08 23:01
oiaohmDesexing all females with class 2 dibeities would reduce the population weight over time.Feb 08 23:01
FurnaceBoyughFeb 08 23:01
oiaohmEven if you don't alter the food.  FurnaceBoyFeb 08 23:01
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: go see "Food Inc" for a small insight into how systemic the issue is.Feb 08 23:01
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: you could start with subsidies for corn and soyFeb 08 23:02
oiaohmI have seen it FurnaceBoyFeb 08 23:02
shreddarWell if they could make a addictive food that's healthy for you I don't think it hurt business.Feb 08 23:02
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: all of that crap has to be dismantled to have a hope of improving public healthFeb 08 23:02
FurnaceBoyshreddar: good food has existed on the planet for as long as humans have existedFeb 08 23:02
FurnaceBoyshreddar: there is no need for innovation in foodFeb 08 23:02
FurnaceBoyshreddar: we only need to eat what grows. the end.Feb 08 23:02
shreddaraddictive food not good foodFeb 08 23:02
shreddaraddictive as in heroinFeb 08 23:03
FurnaceBoyshreddar: why pander to poor behaviours? just teach people what is good to eat, and make sure it's available.Feb 08 23:03
oiaohmProblem here is where most of history location is.Feb 08 23:03
oiaohmIe people living in cold climents having extra fat is not a bad thing while food is limited.Feb 08 23:03
shreddarI'm just point out the profitable part isn't the deadly factor but the addictive factor.Feb 08 23:04
FurnaceBoyshreddar: bothFeb 08 23:04
oiaohmIssue is not the addictiveFeb 08 23:04
FurnaceBoyshreddar: it's no coincidence that sugar water is the most profitable. Feb 08 23:04
oiaohmIssue is some of the chemicals in there that are posions.Feb 08 23:04
FurnaceBoyshreddar: no food value. the additives make it toxic, but it's pure profit.Feb 08 23:04
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: rightFeb 08 23:04
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: an under-appreciated factFeb 08 23:04
oiaohmAnd no food value.Feb 08 23:05
FurnaceBoybut very very lucrative.Feb 08 23:05
FurnaceBoywhich is why nobody is changing the status quo.Feb 08 23:05
oiaohmso a person can eat there fill but there body is still in stavation.Feb 08 23:05
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: the effects of aspartame multiply that effectFeb 08 23:05
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: as you probably knowFeb 08 23:05
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: calorie deficitFeb 08 23:05
oiaohmIf that person is carring a child.   The effect of being in stavation is that child will be over weight.Feb 08 23:05
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: drives craving through well understood endocrine effectsFeb 08 23:05
oiaohmSo its not the culture of food.Feb 08 23:06
oiaohmBasically the USA population is staving in a sea of plenty.Feb 08 23:06
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: it's not the right kind of plenty.Feb 08 23:06
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: it's exactly the wrong kindFeb 08 23:07
oiaohmLot of people think it because USA people eat a lot they are overweight.Feb 08 23:07
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: the dominant culture teaches people that they should eat the worst foods availableFeb 08 23:07
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: hm?Feb 08 23:07
oiaohmIts not the case.Feb 08 23:07
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: have you been to the USA?Feb 08 23:07
oiaohmHow are the food the worst.Feb 08 23:07
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: there are a combination of factors involved int he USA's obesity problemFeb 08 23:08
oiaohmIf they were made from real items not manaffactured crap.Feb 08 23:08
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: 1) ignorance 2) advertising 3) poor availability of good food 4) the bad food is cheaper .. and a few others.Feb 08 23:08
oiaohmMost of the bad foods the USA people eat would not cause there bodys to think they are staving.Feb 08 23:08
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: yes, obviously, if good food were available and people knew what was good to eat, the problem would not exist.Feb 08 23:08
oiaohmThe staving thing is critical.Feb 08 23:08
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: also 5) lack of exerciseFeb 08 23:08
oiaohmRemember lack of exercise its dna dependant if you need to.Feb 08 23:09
FurnaceBoyeh?Feb 08 23:09
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: noFeb 08 23:09
oiaohmIt is.Feb 08 23:09
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: this is cultural. it's a manufactured effect.Feb 08 23:09
oiaohmSome people cannot put on fat.Feb 08 23:09
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: sure, in a tiny minority, outside the USA.Feb 08 23:09
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: this is not relevant to the USA obesity issue.Feb 08 23:09
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: culture isFeb 08 23:09
oiaohmThat is set from birth.  FurnaceBoyFeb 08 23:09
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: so?Feb 08 23:09
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: not relevant.Feb 08 23:09
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: the lack of exercise is cultural, manufactured situation.Feb 08 23:10
oiaohmexercise is required heavly by those who body weight is set wrong.Feb 08 23:10
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: i am not sure you understand.Feb 08 23:10
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: you need to burn calories.Feb 08 23:10
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: the dominant (and required, by poor planning) USA lifestyle burns as few calories as possible.Feb 08 23:10
oiaohmOk if you body weight is set right.Feb 08 23:10
oiaohmYou try to eat too much you will be sick.Feb 08 23:11
oiaohmIe if you body is going to gain wieght more than what you body set value is you will not be able to eat it.Feb 08 23:11
oiaohmHuman body has lots of safe guards.Feb 08 23:11
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: yet they are all powerless in the face of these other factors.Feb 08 23:12
oiaohmNo.Feb 08 23:12
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: those safeguards work only where people are behaving normallyFeb 08 23:12
oiaohmNo.Feb 08 23:12
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: they're insignificant in the face of a culture designed to make them sickFeb 08 23:12
oiaohmThe safe guards only work if you born right.Feb 08 23:12
FurnaceBoysureFeb 08 23:12
oiaohmThey can work against you.Feb 08 23:12
oiaohmIf you body weight is set high.Feb 08 23:13
FurnaceBoyanyway, the result of all these exceptions is that the vast majority eat badly and have health problemsFeb 08 23:13
oiaohmYour body will do everything to get there.Feb 08 23:13
oiaohmThis is a safe guard as well.Feb 08 23:13
oiaohmHuman body safe guards being tricked is causing very big problems.Feb 08 23:13
oiaohmThey are programmed by how much stavation your mother was facing.  FurnaceBoyFeb 08 23:14
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: this is a tiny minorityFeb 08 23:14
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: the point is that there are so many factors here, you have to address all of them.Feb 08 23:15
oiaohmNow what do we do in responce to being over weight.Feb 08 23:15
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: education. urban planning. media. food regulation.Feb 08 23:15
oiaohmDiet.Feb 08 23:15
oiaohmIe self caused stavation.Feb 08 23:15
FurnaceBoyno,Feb 08 23:15
FurnaceBoydiet != self caused starvationFeb 08 23:15
FurnaceBoythough most people think that's what it is.Feb 08 23:15
FurnaceBoyany nutritionist will soon correct that misconception.Feb 08 23:16
oiaohmI was using what most people think it is.Feb 08 23:16
FurnaceBoyyes.Feb 08 23:16
FurnaceBoysadly.Feb 08 23:16
FurnaceBoywhich just makes the problem worseFeb 08 23:16
oiaohmReally kill of the self cause stavation and the problem will improve as well.Feb 08 23:16
oiaohmBasically USA people need to stop tricking there DNA so the next generation stands a chance.Feb 08 23:17
FurnaceBoyFurnaceBoy | oiaohm: education. urban planning. media. food regulation.Feb 08 23:17
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: none of these will be solved soonFeb 08 23:17
oiaohmLot of it is not the eating of food.  But the no eating of food.Feb 08 23:18
FurnaceBoyor the wrong kind. <-- this is the biggest issue.Feb 08 23:18
FurnaceBoywhich is an education issue.Feb 08 23:18
FurnaceBoyand availability and affordability.Feb 08 23:18
FurnaceBoysolving all that will take 100 years :)Feb 08 23:18
FurnaceBoyand means completely eviscerating the current systemFeb 08 23:19
oiaohmPosions in food interfering with the processing of sugers and the like is not good.Feb 08 23:19
oiaohmPlease note lot of this problem in the usa starts in the depression.Feb 08 23:20
shreddarunconditional softwareFeb 08 23:20
oiaohmWhen there was a lack of food.Feb 08 23:20
shreddarunlimited softwareFeb 08 23:20
oiaohmIe FurnaceBoy it been a snow ball effect.   It been coming for years and no one noticed it.Feb 08 23:21
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: did you ever read Dr Batmanghelidj's book, about Water, which covered Aspartame metabolism?Feb 08 23:21
oiaohmYes Aspartame is a great posion.  FurnaceBoyFeb 08 23:22
FurnaceBoyoiaohm: yes, but don't just focus on the medical causes. culture, education, urban planning, lack of regulation, destructive subsidies, are all factorsFeb 08 23:22
oiaohmEven worse people with type 2 diabiets are going to take lots of it.  FurnaceBoyFeb 08 23:22
FurnaceBoyughFeb 08 23:22
FurnaceBoyyeahFeb 08 23:23
FurnaceBoyit's a scamFeb 08 23:23
FurnaceBoyBatmanghelidj explained how diet coke actually makes obesity far more likelyFeb 08 23:23
oiaohmSo making the long term effects of type 2 diabiets worse on the over all popluation.Feb 08 23:23
oiaohmIe more and more obese people.Feb 08 23:23
oiaohmThat are DNA set that way.Feb 08 23:23
oiaohmAnd that feeds around in a loop.Feb 08 23:24
oiaohmBefore you know what is going on most of you popluation is over weight.Feb 08 23:24
oiaohmThere is always a small percentage of a population who will be in true stavation.  So you always should have some obese people in the next generation.Feb 08 23:25
FurnaceBoybut thats only one factor...Feb 08 23:25
FurnaceBoydon't neglect all the othersFeb 08 23:25
oiaohmBut those obese people should when there is food have thinner childern if they eat right.Feb 08 23:25
oiaohmOr naturally die due to type 2 dibeites.Feb 08 23:26
oiaohmGuess what.  We have stopped the natural kill of there as well.Feb 08 23:26
oiaohmBasically by nature type 2 dibeities people are not ment to have children.Feb 08 23:27
oiaohmEverything is running out of control and its not just food.  FurnaceBoyFeb 08 23:27

FurnaceBoyAnother Signal official testified in his deposition: "The impression I was left with after the talks with the federal agencies was to immediately deport the worker activists." The Signal official said he was told, "Don't give them any advance notice, take them all out of the line on the way to work, get their personal belongings, get them in a van, get their tickets, get them to the airport andFeb 08 23:32
FurnaceBoy send them back to India, even if their H-2 B visas haven't expired."Feb 08 23:32
FurnaceBoyAby Raju, one of the Indian workers who had been employed by Signal, said that once he and his co-workers arrived from India, "we were held in a labor camp in the shipyard, penned in behind barbed wire and guarded by security so no one knew our whereabouts. We were 24 men to a small room with no privacy and two toilets. They charged so much for the food and bunks that we couldn't send any moneyFeb 08 23:32
FurnaceBoy home or repay our families for the money they spent helping us get to the United States."Feb 08 23:32

schestowitzv6?Feb 08 23:50
cubezzzis v6 going to replace v4 or will both be used in tandem?Feb 08 23:55
MinceRi think for most users it will have to replace v4Feb 08 23:56
MinceRas there's simply not enough addressesFeb 08 23:57
MinceRthen again, maybe ISPs (or independent tunnels) will provide NAT to fix that somewhatFeb 08 23:57
cubezzz"It is widely expected that IPv4 will be supported alongside IPv6 for the foreseeable future."Feb 08 23:57
cubezzzI assume v6 boxes still can talk to v4 boxesFeb 08 23:58
MinceRnot directlyFeb 08 23:59
MinceRfor the v4 box's reply to reach the v6 box, it would have to be able to address it, which is precisely the problemFeb 08 23:59
