Right, there's too much of that crap nowadays
the big guys at FIFA should introduce a rule where "fakers" get a X week suspension if the video images afterwards show it was a "Schwalbe" as our german neighbours call it
But in the meantime, country teams usually have much less of that crap. Well, except perhaps for the Inzaghi siste... ehh I mean brothers
My own country didn't make it, so I'm kinda choosing a favourite team on a per-game basis.

DOS 3.2 here though.

I'm still trying to figure out a good one for my HP J5000 - It's got "Hedgehog" assigned to it now, but that's only temporary. Problem is that HPUX shortens hostnames to 8 chars for uname, which makes it quite a bit harder to find a good one.

I just uploaded
neko_gaim-2.0.0beta3.1
and the corresponding
neko_guifications-2.13beta3.1
to incoming. This should take care of the gaim/msn issue we've been seeing; at least on my boxes it works like a charm
however, it depends on the glib in beta, so perhaps it'd be best to keep it there til glib also moves.

Never considered OpenVMS? It's not unix related and doesn't feel the slightest bit like any other OS out there... but it's very, very interesting to mess around with. And you can get free hobbyist licenses for it too, so it's 100% legal.

: gaim 1.5.0 contains a few MSN related bugs that were discovered long after the 2.0 beta series were released. They're not going to be fixed, all development effort is directed at getting a 2.0 stable released.
Therion : The 2.0.0 betas aren't buggy really
there's just that nasty crash in libgcrypt... but that's not gaim related at all.
I've been promising to get a fresh package up for a long time, but work + flu have been holding me back... my apologies

Well, it's been half a century since I promised I'd do it, but I finally got to it:
neko_libgcrypt-1.2.4 - finally no more crashing in Jabber/TLS! I've kept some people waiting for this one for a long time (innit stuart
) but I hope it was worth the wait.
I have a build of beta6 ready, but it seems like it's not ready for release yet. Still, beta5's jabber/TLS works fine now. Enjoy!

The main point still stands though. Stable releases do not upgrade versions. If you have a stable ubuntu you'll never see newer versions trickle in - only bugfixes to existing versions. If you want to keep up with the merry-go-round, you have to hop on and use a testing distribution...

I have pkgsrc on my J5000. Works pretty good, if you can live with not all packages being available.
Two of the better channels to lurk in for that are #pkgsrc and #hpux on freenode. The (only?) pkgsrc maintainer for HPUX is in both.

Nah, not investing in the current boxes anymore. The only one that might score a new part perhaps would be the O2 - it lacks a 400MHz cpu to be complete.
Itanium2 == bandwidth! I wish they had created a workstation with the zx2 chipset, that'd have rocked.

Hmmm... Regardless of how much I do not trust Paypal, I'd prefer it over escrow services every single day. Virtually all online fraud I encountered (not myself, luckily; I tend to accept nothing but international wire transfers) were done with escrow.
They'll only release the money when you send them a code? Bollocks! They'll release the money to the very first person who seems to know one or two facts about you. And don't think you'll ever get your money back. Hell, even Western Union - about the most used escrow service in the world - is one huge fraud factory.
I sure hope that this eBid will prove to have a better track record than that.

Actually, that feature was dropped completely, and is now handled entirely in the IA32 Execution Layer, which is software. And, from experience, it is never, ever used.
Itanium2 is not a bad chip. It's definitely not the best - I'm sure some people here can debate for weeks over this title
- but it's really not a bad chip. Combined with the chipsets HP provides (ZX2, ZX2000) it has an interesting amount of total I/O and memory bandwidth. It never had that funky take-cover-im-a-RISC feeling you get from MIPS, Sparc, POWER, HPPA, ... though.

I've noticed that Chanserv has been offline for a long long time on the ircd. Known thing or not? And are there any plans for it to return? It's a bit sad, not being able to set a topic (or remove unwanted elements - although this luckily hasn't been necessary so far).

Tru64 hasn't been ported to anything new, and is heading the IRIX way. Companies pay big bucks just to be able to run those fancy homegrown apps they lost the sourcecode for, ages ago.
But still: alphas are expensive. You can get low spec alphas for relatively cheap if you look for them, but the machines with more than 128MB ram will be pricy. Dunno why exactly. I have an alphaserver 8/400 with 128MB at home, I'd sell it in an instant if anyone offered me even half that price

I bet there is some pretty pissed off people at HP, as they have basically screwed themselves out of control of their own destiny... So where will they be in 5-10 years from now? Trying to fab their own Itaniums? Or porting to the x64..?
As far as OpenVMS goes, the work that they did porting from Alpha to Itanium essentially removed most of the hardware dependencies of OpenVMS (no more PALcode, even though it really should have been the other way around with other processors picking up the idea), so provided HP keeps VMS around the switch to AMD64 should be pretty smooth. The hardest part will be IEST or whatever they call the Itanium->AMD64 version of DECmigrate.
Er...

Bwahahahahaha
okay, hold it - are you seriously suggesting that they would consider porting UX and VMS to AMD64?
No, seriously. They won't. The big customers of enterprise platforms need levels of error correction that wintel hardware cannot give, and won't be able to give in a long, long time - if ever at all. If they were to move to wintel, the OSes themselves would have little to no added value anymore.

Oh absolutely, and expect the Itanium to be pulled in 5 years or so. The volume isn't there and all those "ecc" features you want are appearing on the xenons. The writing is on the wall..(well it's been for some time now) that the x86 has basically won out.
Right. I remember when the old mainframe companies - Amdahl, Fujitsu, Hitachi, Siemens, ... - claimed that the mainframe was dead, and that UNIX would take it all over. They stopped their production lines, and laughed at IBM investing huge piles of cash in new mainframe series.
"Because hey, all those reliability and performance features are appearing on UNIX too. IBM will be killing off its mainframe branch in no time. They're burning money for nothing now."
2010: IBM sells more mainframes than ever, and earns billions on it. It also has a 95+ percent marketshare. Volume doesn't matter if the margin is high enough, and the sales are steady. The xenons (? I guess you mean xeons) are nowhere near the reliability an IA64 offers. Sure, for low-end and less-critical servers, things get moved from IA64/HPUX onto x86/Linux. But the high-end, highly critical market? Hah.
x86 has won out, yes. In volume, on the commodity market. But who gives a shit about commodity in the first place?
