schestowitzI wonder how much longer this CentOS version has for updates with EPEL. Tux Machines would not take as long to rebuild as techrights. I wonder if newer PHP versions will at some stage be incompatible with Drupal 6 (LTS/extended support).Aug 30 08:54

schestowitzThere's this thing I call "emotional reaction".Aug 30 08:57

schestowitzIt's like I want to say something but cannot.Aug 30 08:57
schestowitzzoobab used to send me depressing UPC/EPO messages, which turned out to be exaggerations anyway.Aug 30 08:57
schestowitzAt one point I started classifying things I get told or read "emotional" to highlight it's just counter-productive to the train of thought. But not my own fault...Aug 30 08:57
schestowitzThis is, in part, why I stopped covering Gates Fdn. crap. Too much lying to tolerate.Aug 30 08:57
schestowitzToday I'll do articles about LF/MSFT and EPO/UPC.Aug 30 08:57
schestowitzI also have a major ILO-AT story on the way.Aug 30 08:57
