I, SectionTFSH, also known as ThreeFarthingStone, am now dead. This means I will not be making any more posts to Slashdot, Gentoo Forums, or Zynot (new tiki-account was pending).
As I recently obtained OpenBSD, some will take this as confirmation of the BSD-is-dying (or BSD-causes-death) theory. This is not the case. BSD and *BSD are not responsible for this death. No computer operating system caused this death.
Even though OpenBSD is a derivative of BSD, they have taken off the BSD copyright as well. Their
# COPYRIGHTS AND OTHER DELUSIONS . . . The BSD ancestor of this file had a standard Regents of the University of California copyright . . . Some information has been merged in from a terminfo file SCO distributes . . . This file deliberately has no copyright. It belongs to no one and everyone.
Today's Saturday Sequence includes Windows in the BIOS, blue helmets in Liberia, and other topics.

As China encourages some of its people to switch to KDE, a thread comparing open source (or free software) to communism appeared in the story World's Largest Country Goes for KDE on KDE's news site.
I have been trying to install OpenBSD (mirror). About a month ago, I tried running NetBSD, OpenBSD, and OpenDarwin in turn, looking for a OS to replace Gentoo Linux (which was having problems), before switching to Mac OS 9. However, I really wanted to be using the X Window System, so recently I reinstalled Gentoo by an ackward method.
A quick binary install of Gentoo Linux is possible by copying the KDE LiveCD to the hard disk, if you know how. Scroll down for instructions.

Long, long ago in a network far, far, away...
Emperor Clunis Bohandt, disappointed in the recent destruction of En\Tea, openly ordered an invasion of the Rebellion's distant base of libc-5.
THE PARTY OF SINUL
A New Parody Episode 4
Long, long ago in a network far, far, away...
The power of the Flag Empire seemed unstoppable. Their forces crushed the freedoms of countless worlds. The Rebellion was forced into hiding.
The entire remaining force of the Rebellion lay hidden on the remote lunar land of libc-5. Meanwhile, Brathe Fill was pursuing Rebels with the secret weapon in order to find and destroy the Rebels. (Sound familiar?)
