They would also once in a while fix a script. I started out as an operator. You also forgot load mag tapes :)

I was thinking the same. Plus who cares, I or probably most people here can encrypt their own data. If I were ever to send things to the "cloud", it would be encrypted on my local system first by me before uploading it. If this

Nice! You can also use xphoon(6) on Linux/*BSD to show a kind of ASCII moon on your root window.

I remember seeing Curling on TV as a young kid in the 60s. Most competitor were out of shape and they tossed the stone almost like one would bowl. I was shocked decades later seeing how it changed. I miss the old days :)

Surprised by Rhode Island, New Hampshire not a surprise. I doubt it will pass in RI, New Hampshire, you never know. NH has a rather unique legislature compared to the other States. But I tend to think it will not pass there either.

Isn't this try # 10000000 ? The problem, once Congress gets wind of the amount of real money that will need to be spent, plus the time it will really take to develop and fully test , it is cancelled. Of course I fully expect this to b

I hope this succeeds plus I hope they are open to allow patches from OpenBSD. IIRC, Xorg would not accept patches from them, them, thus we have xenodm. Also I hope NetBSD, FreeBSD and DrogonFlyBSD jumps on, this way the BSDs do not have to

Wait until Trump gets rid of Powell and others and replace them with his lapdogs. That could happen next year. Why Wall Street is not going after Trump and his cronies is beyond me. If Trump takes over the Fed, that will make the 1930s loo

A non-paywalled link: https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/other/cargo-ship-vanished-in... I think instead of trying to click on these pay-walled links we should do a search and comment with a non-paywalled link.

Many people think this will hurt the old the most, but in reality, as an old person, it will hurt our children far more more than old people. Once again we are proving the US is just "I got mine, the rest of you can suffer" Countr

A rather fair review and the partitioning step can be confusing to new users. A first time user should read the Guide a few times and maybe refer to it during install. It renders fine on a smartphone. https://www.netbsd.org&#x

That is one thing that was nice about DOS, you where close to the machine. I never fully got machine language, but it was fun trying. IIRC, debug.com could be used to create programs using machine lang.

Well at least we have China doing real science. Off to backwater status the US goes. Kids, if you can afford it, go to college in non-US countries.

You should watch Full Metal Jacket :) If I understood the article, many of these people were bullied in when young. So you suggest they join the military to get more bullying ? Granted, I do not know what basic training these days is like,

For blind people, sadly I have to agree with you. It is too bad, you would think braille readers would work great w/Linux due to UN*X original design. But I think getting the hardware is rough for individual developers. And most of

The MAGA revolution, if it continues, will force the US into a place that the USSR was in before it fell. Plus people here will get to experience an economy far worse than 1930 US.

Because IBM/RHEL pays Microsoft for the key (shim). Plus with Linus/BSD, once boot starts their own microcode is loaded. Secure boot as far as Linux is concerned is extortion from the users.

It is not just "grumpy old folks", almost everyone who own property, no matter the age fights development. Seems the only people that do not actively fight development are the working poor. That is because either they work multip
