Imagine a world where everybody needs proprietary drivers to run GNU/Linux. That would be terrible and make it extremely difficult to innovate. When security problems appear, it’s up to the vendor of the hardware to decide if GNU/Linux will be secure or an easily exploitable platform.

I’ll start it off: “Our technology allows content providers, enterprises and consumers to control what others can do with their digital information, such as documents, music, video, ebooks, and software. Become a key leader, providing vision and industry leadership in developing DRM, Palladium and Software Licensing products and Trust Infrastructure Services” — Does anyone else find it infuriating that Microsoft would tell their regular consumer customers that Palladium is all about ushering in a new era of computing that will be nothing but great for everyone, when at the same time they’re telling corporations and other customers that it’s a great way to lock-down your content from the end-user? It’s a bald-faced lie that Palladium poses any benefit to regular joe schmoe consumers, and especially consumers that know what they’re doing.

Objectivity is hard to find in journalism…but it’s easier to find in more professional journals than some guys website that looks like he threw it together in 5 minutes.

Other than not getting paid, what would be the difference in working for Canonical instead of Microsoft or Novell?

If I am recommending a OS for basic fileserving and mail, I will always pick last years hw and Linux or a real Unix box. This guarantees uptime, where it doesn’t on Windows. Last year’s hw is more than likely guaranteed to be less reliable than this year’s hw.

Someone, I forgot to mention, if you hate CRT’s, the 14″ iBook is a great choice. It’s affordable by Apple standards, has a beautiful screen. It is only a 700 MHz G3, but I just installed 10.2 on ours and am stunned by the speed. The 14″ model edges towards “desktop replacement”, with nice big keyboard, large screen and lots of room for your wrists, etc.

A lot of his ideas are in the right direction, MS is gradually exerting more control over both the hardware and software industries.

This just has an unneeded negative atitude in the article. has the writer even used jaguar(i havn’t), but reports from all over are praising this upgrade for speed and features, maybe the writer should have done his homework.

24. This extractor set from Harbor Freight is engineered to remove broken screws. High carbon steel construction gives these screw extractors the strength necessary to remove the most stubborn screws.

The Iditarod-Nixon Fork Fault, a major, trending strike-slip fault with 20 to 70 miles northeast of right lateral displacement, follows Bonanza Creek on the south side of the Iditarod district. The major displacement is Late Cretaceous to Early Tertiary in age. Late Cretaceous to Tertiary intrusive igneous rocks are found throughout the Kuskokwim region, but they appear to be concentrated near major faults. The intrusives generally range in composition from gabbro to monzonite or quartz monzonite and show considerable compositional variation within individual plutons. Many are zoned with mafic margins and more felsic cores. At the present erosion level, only the upper portions of most intrusives have been exposed. Many lode and placer metal occurrences in the lower Kuskokwim region are associated with these intrusives or the extensive hornfel aureoles that commonly border them. The metals recovered are predominately gold, silver, tungsten, antimony, arsenic, and mercury. Some tin, platinum, and uranium minerals have been noted in placer concentrates. Felsic volcanic rocks of Eocene age occur locally along the Iditarod-Nixon Fork Fault and along fold structures. Molybdenum mineralization has been observed in a few felsic intrusives of uncertain age within the region. Kuskokwim Group sedimentary rocks near Flat have been intruded by two monzonite plutons known as the Chicken Mountain and Black Creek Stocks plus lesser dikes and plugs. The sedimentary section, which tends northeast, consists of dark-grey to black shale, siltstone, sandstone, and arkose with minor conglomerate and coal. Adjacent to the intrusives, these rocks are commonly converted to argillite and hornfel. The hornfel zone commonly extends to a least 1,000 feet from the contact and tends to weather in positive relief.

It’s critical to control the drill so it doesn’t run away once you begin work. When you lean in to bore the hole, the drill bit should be perfectly perpendicular to the concrete. Be prepared for some recoil from the drill’s hammer action.

10. Run the thread chaser through the hole several times until all debris is gone. Flush the hole out with penetrating lubricant. While you’re at it, chase all bolt hole threads in the casting to ensure cleanliness.
