It's being censored.

cd /
md5sum -c var/lib/dpkg/info/foo.md5sums

There's also a tool called debsums which does roughly the same. So that gets you at least half way there.

Well, Python has the @property decorator that achieves the same thing without changing the signature and without generating massive amounts of boilerplate code.

Debian admins, however, do cherry-pick relevant fixes backported by RedHat to older kernels. Or rather used to do.

Blackberry.

What's incorrect about referring to mx records instead of specifying ip addresses by hand?

587 actually, and usually servers accept auth also on 25

Mah-tish-chick would be close enough, I guess.

Tits.

If you're looking at the cheap end, forget Java. Hosting PHP is way cheaper (in some part, due to its sheer popularity).

You're on an amd64 box, right?

AFAIK the 128TiB you see is the top half of the total 48-bit addressable space, spanning from -128 TiB to 128 TiB (the whole address space is 64 bits or 16EiB, but only 48 bits are ever used in todays amd64 CPUs, the available space occupying the top and bottom 128TiB chunks). The lower half belongs to userspace, the upper one to the kernel.

I may be wrong but I guess somebody will correct me then.

Because setting up and maintaining your own recursive DNS server is a pain in the ass?

apt-get install pdns-recursor
echo 'nameserver 127.0.0.1' > /etc/resolv.conf

Was that so bad?

!isatty(1) inside ls, influences formatting (like ls -1).

You're doing it wrong.
