Hmm. Could be used at exit interviews from mental hosptials.

Actually Windows 2000 is superior to Windows 7. If it were not you'd find Windows 2000 on Technet. Glad I kept my boxed edition (although I'm sure you could finid one on eBay). I install it (and SP4) in a VM. The only drawback to Windows 2000 is that it is limited to 127GB Hard Disks. The Winidows 2000 GUI reminds me of Gnome 2 (well sorta of)

(I think some places let you do this) Yeah several million places

Worst and most terrifying science fiction? NOW http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-19169023

The portesters not only don't have a unified agenda but they are protesting the wrong organization. They should be protesting the Federal Reserve and/or Treasury. Although they may be controlled by the 1% the relative size of the assets and power of these agencies are far greater. - and of course the Fed can print cash. It h ad been revealed, without contradiction by the WH that Mr Geithner (sic) does not implement the directives of his boss out of course he came from the NY Reserve Bank. The new head of the NY Fed gave a "speech " to a crowd some time ago in which he said that things were getting better because the prices of iPads was going down. To which somebody replied "Great - but you can't eat iPads"

I thought this thread was about "repulsive gravity in antiparticles so I don't understand about sub plank distances which ar e likely a realm stranger than "ordinary" quantum mechanics. Since the mediating particle for gravity (gravitons) has not yet been detected - not for lack of trying" I suppose there is a possibility I suppose of anti-gravitions. But I thought that enough antimatter has been created that last s a measurable peridd of time for all forces to be studied. of time. How could matter and antimatter interact at all if they were essentially moving in opposite directions. Just daydreaming at the end of long day.

Depends on the distance between the the objects. Electromagnetic contraction or repulsion act over relatively short distances. I really doubt that antimatter is gravitationally repulsive but the universe is stranger than we imagine or can imagine (Einstein).

Lot's of bashing (ha) of Gnome3 and its deserved. But if you've used it and Unity you'' see the difference. Unity is the worst DE ever imposed on a unsuspecting and helpless (if OEMS keep pre-loading Ubuntu) public. In both cases the developers or their masters have decided to screw anybody who uses Linux fo anything besides entertainment (and even that's screwed up like Amaorok. KDE was the same way when it first came out (v 4,0) when 3,5 was rather useful except somebody though it looked more like Windows. It now pretty stable but still bloated and geared to "widgets". I just discovered LXDE and I personally use it much more now than Gnome , KDE or XFCE. As I remember Linus went back and forth over his endorsement of DE - so what? He's also changed the name of kernel 2.6.40 to 3.0 and said himself there wasn't any real change. Fedora Rawhide still usess 2.6.40 - as well a GRUG "legacy". GRUB is mostly a step back to LILO - you have to run a sperate program (update-grub) whenever you make any configurations change. Slackware doesn't have to change!!It Its premature to compete with Windows on eye-candy.

Think about this. This is the Obama administration - the most secretive ever - beyond even Bush(s).

Yes - by about 6 months. Debian has many more packages available using synapatic, software center (in Debian a6.0) or mainly apt-get. Why does the package manager in Slackware called slapt-get? Slackware requires even more work than Debian and will never be adopted by anyone as a primary OS except by masochists.

The only reason I use on is to flash a bios. It does come in handy then thought of course there are other media just as good if nopt better. One could also foll with small linux'es that can be put on a floppy for kicks.

Interesting sidenote. VMware had beta support of OS/2 back in version 2. They abandoned it. People flamed them pretty bad - including myself. Guess they didn't consider the market worth their technical time - or maybe they just couldn't do technically.

If you know how to harness HYPO manic energy with going over the line to true MANIC energy (which you must be referring to as MANIC energy is totally unfocused - with the possible exception of sex) - please share this secret. As the saying goes "many have tried and many have failed". Harness such energy could be potentially game changing for the race.

The "new" Debian GUI installer seem like its for the masses. I have a RAID 1 setup with two primary partitions as the physical RAID devices and a /boot partition on an extended partition (separate is required for booting). Thought I'd try the GUI installer. Bad mistake. It's just a "lousy" frontedn to the text installer EXCEPT you can't specify the location of the MBR. On a multiboot setup like mine that made Windows as well as other OS's unable to boot. Had to use terabyteunlimited BootItNG to recover MB funcionality. Don't use GUI installers blindly. Naturally you have no choice with Windows but who cares since it can only be setup on the first drive and partition anyway.
