- Linux: I've just fixed my desktop machine (had to buy a new CPU, unfortunately, after the old one died during shipping). I then upgraded to Red Hat 9 (woo, very nice), switched to KDE for my desktop, and took a look at software suspend (because the machine is too noisy to leave on permanently in the corner of the living room). However, the latter won't work with my video card; instead, the machine reboots continually when resuming from suspend. |

- Why do you suppose France and Russia — nations that for years urged the lifting of sanctions on oil production of Saddam's Iraq — are now preventing an end to those U.N. sanctions on free Iraq? Mmm... it seems France and Russia are more motivated by oil than America... |

- The people in this computer lab do need to shut the fuck up. This little capri-panted sorority girl just walked in, yelled in her over-sacharined voice to her friend, who squawked back, and then they proceeded to have a conversation like this across the lab.

But when the hell did it become ok to yell in a lab? |
