Whoa! Charlie, Mark. . .

I was messing around, trying to find why I can't get sound on my Dell
Mini with UNR.
On the Ubuntu Forums, I found someone who said he installed something
called "Sun VirtualBox," which solved the problem.
I don't know about that (yet), but I am typing this on my MacBook,
under OSX, running a VirtualBox of UNR 9.10.
And it's *free*, not a demo.
The site seems to say you can run Linux on Windows, Windows on Linux,
either on a Mac, etc.
You may want to check it out.
(OTOH, it may be old news to both of you. If so, Never Mind!)

Oh, and oddly enough, sound works on it while running a VB on my
MacBook. Go figure.

And since this last post, I have stopped that one, set up a new one,
and am now running on MacBook under Linux Mint.
This is too cool a toy to ignore.

Go for it.
I have Virtualbox on this machine and have played around with it some. A
lot of people use it to try out new distros, rather than doing a hard
drive install on a physical partition. Me, I don't mess with it much, as
I don't have the kind of memory one needs to be able to split it up
between the host and the guest and get decent performance out of either.
In fact, that is about the only justification I could come up with for
updating my hardware -- if it weren't for running VMs, I really couldn't
complain about this machines performance at all, even at it's age. The
1.67GHz AMD processor is already slower than what was in the last couple
of machines I've had given to me as "old". My 1024MB of RAM has served
me well, but any more the bare minimum is 2G, and the emerging standard
is 4G.

Fred Exley
I watched the Fox coverage of the story earlier, and now I'm watching
Rachael Maddow for the MSNBC version. Same story, but so far there
isn't the slightest fact in common being reported by the two camps.
The Fox version: A muslim Army officer, not wanting to go to overseas to
fight fellow muslims, killed 12 people.
The MSNBC version: There is much confusion about what happened at Fort
Hood because the US Army corrected prior incorrect statements that the
shooter was killed. Then they brought in Jim McLshitheadsky, who
poo-pooed the Army's lack of clarity in handling presenting the facts
straight. I kid you not. Not one mention about the shooter's motives,
only critisism of the Army. Un-fucking believable.
If you're relying on MSNBC to get the story, you will be thoroughly misled.
F.H.
Thanks for filling me in on what you were talking about. Why you chose
to jump on a post that was a joke is curious.

You're kidding, right? "All propaganda all the time" Fox has convicted
the guy of being a Muslim and you are ready to join the lynching party.
If you ever get busted, you deserve a jury of like minded citizens,
people who get their facts from conservative pundits. "Un-fucking
believable" indeed.
I purposely avoided *all* the talking heads for the simple reason that
it will be news 24/7 for Gawd knows how long. I did notice the shooter
was a doctor, not a soldier. How did your trusted servants at Fox
conclude that he would be killing *anyone*?
I did catch the last half of The Daily Show. Its a must see. Jon
Stewart did an incredible impersonation of Glen Beck. Should be up
tomorrow.
Fred Exley
That's why I turned the channel to get another reporting of the story.
I got no reporting of the story whatsoever on Maddows show. All the
show discussed was how Army people are over-stressed.
If people were killed in a bank robbery, the fact that a bank robber was
robbing a bank would have something to do with the story.
JoeRaisin
"Convicted" of being in a religion?
Uhm... You do know that the guy IS a Muslim, right?
What role that played in his decision remains to be seen.

Of the few clips I've seen (usually by people making fun of him) it was
spot on. Looks like Beck has borrowed a page from that TV Preacher from
around here, the late Reverend Scott, The Shock Jock of Televangelism."

Speaking of "bullshit recycled," how many time do you think you have

Tara Green
Ditto if you're following the Fox version.
Interesting how quickly you showed your
allegiances though. Especially since Fox had
as many of the facts wrong as everyone else.
I figured I would hold off on obsessively
following the story so that I could hear the
story after the bozos got all the facts
straight....like that the gunman WASN'T
killed. Just THAT took everybody multiple
hours to get right.
And where did you get the info that he's an
"Orthodox Muslim"? (seeing as that was your
intro line for this particular gem...)
F.H.
We went from computer geek funning to the "Orthodox Muslim." I /think/
he was referring to speaking in tongues but I wouldn't be on it.
Tara Green
Did you read Exley's lead-in line?
According to Exley, he was an "*Orthodox

though.

They're all fucking batshit crazy. The
training group I worked with at one point
started turning away client who were
Psychiatrists because, even if we didn't
immediately know what their career was, the
specific types of dysfunction and the bizarre
dynamics in their homes made us want to steal
whatever puppy was involved and flee the
scene. Every. Single. Time.
They serve a good purpose, so I guess I'm
glad for whatever insanity causes them to
choose and stay in that profession, but I
have yet to meet one that isn't all-out nuts.

Tommy, issues like "reportedly" are kind of
the point. How things are reported.
The news I just heard said that those reports
have been unsubstantiated as yet. This guy
may well have fallen into a bizarre and
violent fundie-ism (they also had an
interview with his old Imam, who was
vehemently against the vile evil this man
perpetrated against his fellow man), but
certain aspects of the media are *trying* to
turn this into something that simply as yet
has not been determined by those who are
actually investigating this crime.
I hate to say it dude, but you kind of just
exemplified my point about those who would
rather trade truth for immediacy.
Tommy
news:7ljpm0F...@mid.individual.net...
I've used the word 'reportedly' to show that the news is/often
is/mostly is 'sensationalised.
However, if you check the links, (I think I left one from eyewitnesses
out) and when the 'truth' comes out, he was definitely giving away his
possessions the previous day. A fore-runner for someone completing
suicide is to give away your prized possessions. This guy is on the
FBI list for some internet chats he'd had previously. I'm not going
to be condescending with you, but google is very often the only friend
we have :)
By now you are probably in possession of a lot more news that has

has it on its own webpage.

enhance the investigation or the furtherance
of truth.

Funny. The authorities don't even KNOW the

I've lived in poverty and up to upper middle class most of my life but

provides some emotional security but it mostly provides comfort and

Don't forget Rush, he makes worst persons almost every day. I think it
was yesterday that Keith gave a total for the number of times Rush has
referred to the anus or made anal jokes and suggested Rush has an anal

"slobbering" over President Barack Obama, he'll "come down with anal
poisoning and may die from it."
