I, for one, run an OS that I wrote myself in TI-BASIC, on hardware salvaged from the Soviet space program. Those fiendish alphabet soup nazis will never get their greedy little mits on *my* stash of top-secret hamburger recipes!

haha - funny. Well, not really. You present a false choice, assuming one has to choose between garbage from the US military, or nothing. Also, I always wondered at a woman from poland being a 'security expert'. Now that I see she's just another corrupt ashole with direct ties to the tor mafia and the US military nazis it makes a lot more sense. I'd also speculate that being based on poland has something to do with NATO...

Whoa! Pretty harsh treatment from the master there, at least he included the "-i" flag, maybe say no to a few files... although, I think the "-f" is gonna take precedence. In any case, I'd find a new teacher fucking ASAP... Maybe just buy a book, tell the master to get fucked ;)

Maybe masters sometimes do the right thing, and if they seem not to, this might still be for the pupil's good?

Perhaps it depends on master and his/her objectives. Does the master care about pleasing the master or does the master care about following the path? Is the path important enough to destroy work of poor student? Should the poor student make proper backups? Can Buddha's nature be restored from a backup? Can it be stored there first? Which one tape has more Buddha on it, the one with backup of formatted drive or the one that have been laid over degausser for a year?

Haha :) I keep 15m snapshots on my ZFS volumes, so I guess I wouldn't lose a whole lot of buddha.. but damn, I'd be irritated :P John

A Java programmer asked the master whether computer had Buddha's nature. The master answered "Objects are existential distractions, take the Class in Lisp; it begins at" ... The student waited a pregnant pause, twitched his head left and right in a decidedly Southern Indian continental Indian manner and realised he ought be mindful of culturally appropriating Southern Indian continental Indian head twitching, promptly chastised himself for such superficial thoughts and realised she'd now been waiting at least TWO, very pregnant pauses and the master had still failed to finish HIS sentence! "But, bu.., but what's the end of your sentence?" she asked in a rising, somewhat high pitched voice ending almost in a screech. [continuation expected in 3 .. 2 .. "OVER TO YOU!" boomed a thunderous voice from on high. "Grab that semaphore and TYPE, fool!" 'How odd' thought the SystemgoD, 'I feel so compelled to pronounce that I just love it when a plan9 comes together', scratched his Init head and finally thought 'oh well, perhaps these earthlings will understand ... divine inspiration and all yo!' ]

If you do not mind, it could be nice to write names of countries in consistent manner. Either as "US", "Russia", "Finland" and "Poland" - or as "us", "russia", "finland" and "poland".

I think it's a bit too late for me to start using consistent spelling, and my grammar and style are fucked too, so at least my english is consistently bad =) ...that said, I refer to the united states as "US" and not "us" because "us" is also a pronoun and may look a bit confusing - at least to me. perhaps I should use "gringolandia" instead of "US"...
