Comments:
<0> But that's nothing new either, they've been that for decades.
<1> Evii: They are unlikely to have political agendas. ;)
<2> maxheadrm: You are speaking as if the US is finished.
<3> i feel safer now than i felt in 2o years, from the us.
<4> *yawn*
<3> and i didnt feel safe then because i was just because i was too young to know better
<1> can't say I fear the US overly much
<0> Naw, we've got nothing they'd want
<5> You only have to worry when they're on your side. *duck*.
<6> You don't have to fear the US, as long as there aren't too many brown people in your country. (to paraphrase George Carlin)
<3> working for civil service made me paranoid :)
<1> if they want to invade us, we'll roll over and play dead, same if the russians want us, I'll just get out of the way and let them fight it out
<0> wlfshmn: The only smart way to go
<1> CeruleanD: we have a few, but they aren't very vocal
<0> I never understood war and battle, really
<6> That's fine then :)
<2> PolarWolf: Strange from one who's name is part "Wolf"
<2> ;-)
<0> I mean, all it takes to stop the mindlessnes is for the soldiers to say "**** it" and go home
<0> That's it.
<1> PolarWolf: I'll defend myself and my country if need be, but if the US commited itself, there would be no need, just senseless death ;)
<6> as long as they don't make up the bulk of your population... like Somalia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam, Korea... last time the US got involved in a conflict with a white country, it was only 'cause that white country was moving in on our turf!
<2> wlfshmn: What country are you from?
<1> PolarWolf: after all, NYC could probably successfully invade Sweden. We have about the same amount of population.
<6> lol
<1> NDPTAL85: Sweden
<0> wlfshmn: If war would arrive here, I'd probably hop in the car and drive to lappland
<0> wlfshmn: Let others duke it out for themselves if they insist to
<4> PolarWolf: heh
<2> Sweden?
<1> PolarWolf: Makes sense. Even iff war came to .se, they wouldn't care about Lappland apart form bombing the heck out of Boden ;)
<7> I'd drive to Canada. Noone wants Canada.
<4> NDPTAL85: the country with much bandwith!
<2> 9 million people in Sweden.
<4> 8)
<2> yoz: lol
<1> synapsis: Lappland is like Canada, only 10 degrees further north ;)
<2> According to Wikipedia
<3> PolarWolf people fight to live. you put them in a position where there is no where to run, except in the direction you want them to run. theoretically they made their choices before they got their
<6> Just make sure it's western Canada.
<6> Don't want to get swept up in a Quebec-secession civil war. :)
<7> I already have a Northwest Territories license plate. I'll just go there.
<6> perfect
<7> They have cool license plates.
<0> maxheadrm: How does that compute to soldiers voluntary flying out to a country to die for a cause they don't care about nor believe in?
<8> Hi all!
<8> Anyone alive here? (:
<0> maxheadrm: In most wars that's the case.
<4> [3]+ Stopped irssi
<0> maxheadrm: At least for one side of the conflict
<4> **** that key..
<0> Soldiers are ****ing stupid anyway.
<0> No offence to the people here who were or are in the army :)
<3> PolarWolf they can't just "stop the mindlessnes is for the soldiers to say "**** it" and go home " thats like asking them to stop breathing. or stop their hearts from beating.
<8> I'm having problem with Wine. I'm going to emulate Steam, and I've managed it all, exept for ONE thing. When I start it, I get an error that says I don't have permittion to change the Steam.log file. Should I try to log in as root and try? Just to see if that workes? Or can I gain more access to my account?
<0> maxheadrm: You can't convince me that soldiers in a battle *want* to be there.
<0> maxheadrm: Well, a very small minority maybe, and those deserve to die anyway
<4> PolarWolf: I totally agree there
<9> in ebay context, wtf does "nwt" stand for?
<0> maxheadrm: I bet they'd prefer to be home with wife and kids trying to make a living to get food on the table *without* a chance to get shot for a cause which is only cared about by someone who isn't even there
<3> PolarWolf a czeck officer who defected and was also an american enlisted man once told you you herd them into battle like cattle. once they are there they just run in the direction of the stampede and trample whatever is in their path.
<3> so its not a choice
<0> Bull****, it's always a choice
<0> It might not be an easy choice, but a choice nontheless.
<0> It only takes a substantial amount of the poor sods to agree not to play along with the game to make it all end
<0> Too bad human nature gets in the way too
<3> if you are in a stampede and you dont run in the direction of the stampede you get trampled just as much as anything else. you are in excactly as much danger as the "enemy"
<3> the path of least resistance is as always the safest one for an indivisual
<10> Nanuq: "new with tags", iirc
<0> maxheadrm: I didn't claim it was easy, I only claim it's a choice which, if enough people face it and make the right one, could put an end to wars and battles
<0> If dicatators, aggressors and otherwise megalomaniac idiots have some beef with someone...well, here's the "enemy", good luck.
<3> PolarWolf so what happens if you are in the same position as the enemy? you think you get to stop fighting then? no, you are in the same position as before only with a different color uniform. you still fight or die, just killed by different people.
<0> Too bad it doesn't work that way :)
<0> Too bad for the poor sods getting killed, that is.
<11> any beautyfull scandinavian girl here.I wanna marry you
<3> people are already fleeing.
<0> Cucosh: wlfshmn is a beautiful scandinavian girl
<11> blonde, blue eyes, tall
<11> come ma lady to my arms
<0> Well, if you like heavy boned, short, bearded and male features in a girl
<12> heavy boned... hahaha
<11> ma lady is a girl from here.If any.
<4> 8)
<4> erm no X?
<4> ah there.
<0> Ah well. I guess I should head to bed and stuff
<0> Work and all that tomorrow
<0> Work is nice, it pays the bills, but takes up so damn much free time.
<13> meep!
<2> PolarWolf: Wars are necessary. I think you forgot that.
<13> LOL... nice image of wlfshmn
<4> re
<14> eya
<14> hmm, time to see what new goodies Sid has in store
<3> is etch really ready? i use my own kernel and drivers so thats not a problem but is the rest of it ready? im mostly concerned about smp conflicts.
<14> maxheadrm: give it a try and find out. Stable means just that.
<10> Lion-O!
<14> eya Cynic
<14> hmm, I think I'll give Eclipse another try.
<3> Lion-O thanks but i mean is all the system critical parts working? applications dont bother me. i just mean is its infrastructure ready? specifically x.org. is x.org going to even try to work with two xeons?
<14> maxheadrm: Why keep on asking about the obvious ? It doesn't change the answers I already gave.
<3> Lion-O thanks again.
<14> It is a stable release iow; when installed it will do for what it was made. It will will never be "ready", otherwise unstable wouldn't exist. And whether something is working or not... Try and see, read the hardware specs and draw your conclusions on that, or buy support and demand a working product :P
<3> is nvidia supported by x.org?
<3> graphics cards i mean. geforce
<15> maxheadrm: why not go to their home page and see ? there is a list of supported cards, settings to use and results to expect
<15> hold my hand is what i hear
<3> whitecap because i did not know they had a home page. is there a bot i could talk to here?
<3> :)
<14> I guess you also don't know the existance of google ?
<10> maxheadrm: i'm a bot.
<15> maxheadrm: there is a channel faq url in the topic
<3> whitecap i see, thanks
<16> yea, that sounds about right.
<13> Hmm... 54Gb free on /dev/hda1 and 20Gb free on hda2.
<13> hda2 is my play bin
<17> "hard to beat" - Hmm, freudian slip, or bad choice of words? :)
<14> hmm, I'd go for bikini
<18> what should i chose
<17> depends... how are your legs?
<14> CozMyn: www.distrowatch.org, grab something which appeals to you.
<10> Zymurgy: definately freud^H^H^H^H i mean, faux pas! yeah, faux pas. *runs away*
<14> Cynic: uh huh ;)
<18> yes but what you who test it sugest
<18> ?
<18> what model of linux
<3> CozMyn what are some choices?
<14> CozMyn: you're not making much sense here. I think I already MADE a suggestion. and stop your nonsense about 'linux models', there is no such thing.
<18> i have a linux mandrake 10.1 now
<18> linx version
<10> CozMyn: it's called a "distrobution", and most of the major ones are used by folks in here.. there's probably no popular favourite
<10> check distrowatch.org as Lion-O suggested
<14> CozMyn: version? 2.6.10 is pretty stable.
<18> mandrake/redhat/SUSE/XANDROS/SLACKWARE
<18> which one
<18> ?
<3> dists are kind of like window managers. whatever you are used to.
<14> maxheadrm: not entirely true.
<14> some distributions are more aimed towards certain usage than the other. Some excell at server usage, another is more aimed at desktop usage.
<14> s/excell/excel/
<3> Lion-O hmm i see. what is debian best for?
<14> maxheadrm: depends on the admin :P
<3> versatility i guess. thanks again
<5> Perl really is quite slow.
<19> Evii: funny how there used to be disagreement about which was faster, python or perl.
<19> whereabouts are you Evii?
<20> Evii, no, perl is not slow, it's just possible to write really slow programs.
<5> mike2_: UK. Why?
