Getting outside the Linux v/s Windows argument, my best experience in developing tools (coming from experience with a Cellular planning system with terrain profiling and parallel GIS updates) has been for Sun Boxes with Solaris. We had parallel dev. with AIX and HP-UX and the one that truly...
Forbidden Love Wins Pakistani Hearts as TV Tackles Social Taboos
By Haris Anwar - Mar 6, 2013 2:00 PM ET
As Nihal prepared to marry Behlul, not everything was going to plan. Wielding a gun, the brides stepmother declared undying love for the groom and said she couldnt live without him...
If you see the title of this thread, and the way this thread has veered off its course laying it's blame on RAW to spread anarchy and chaos by claiming "Islam" is the target, what other conclusion can you draw ? As Shawshank says, "Salvation lies within". What BD is going through in fact is a...
So is Debian, Ubuntu or other variants of it. Also Fedora or Debian or Ubuntu all derive from a common Linux Kernel version code base. That being said, Ubuntu is a lot more tied up to using using proprietary code from say NVIDIA and the likes, whereas Fedora is still free to developing your own...
Somehow, Debian and other variants of it including the KDE version (KUbuntu) and Ubuntu as well are much more stable than say Fedora, when it comes to updates. Also Windows users who just need a Browser and a Keypad to get them going will never experience the bliss of working on Kernels and...
The thread title should be something on the lines of "OS Decision making for noobs" or "A Dumbasses guide in choosing an OS based on WYSIWYG parameters" ; Any CS guy or SysAd out there would shudder to remotely even have WinE (Windows Emulator), let alone choosing Windows as a part of his OS.
I used to think that Pakistan was the whirlpool of conspiracy theories ; But looking at posts like these make me wonder, whether there is a "Conspiracy Theory" gene grafted onto Subcontinent Muslims or does Koran have a chapter on "Conspiracy Theories" ?

Implementing that will require changes from Inside out, starting with JUI, PTI and other establishment cronies. Then chart policies in the establishment to reverse that brainwashing, and finally in the nation's social fabric. Because, foot soldiers will always be provided by the Madrassas to...
Good Taliban, Bad Taliban? Pakistani commander's killing exposes blurry lines.
Analysts say the US drone killing of a 'Good Taliban' commander in Pakistan could unleash new violence by anti-government insurgents - or undo peace talks with the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Pakistani Taliban...
I can give you hundreds of Taliban fighters who have been killed in Drone strikes involved in Anti-Pak activities. The lines blurry as the US is sworn to take out AQ, but the Nazir and the Baradar group have been instrumental in sheltering, supporting and training AQ members who massacre on...
That is why it is said the state religion of Pakistan is Denial. The CIA folks there are neither as esteemed as the Water Car Engineers produced in PacLand nor as gullible to be taken in by the wrong patrai. Mehsud was killed as a quid-pro-quo by CIA simply because Mehsud like Mullah Nazir was...
Did Baitullah Mehsud have a peace agreement with Pak ? Or did the IMU leader Tahir Yuldashev have a peace accord ? The US drone policy is "The only Good Taliban is a Dead Taliban".
And then when we show the mirror to their newly converted religion including their "chauvinism" starting from their founder, and the relationship he shared with each of his four wives, we would be sent away to AfBanistan while their posts would still see its life.
Well sure he does. How do you think them Bengali Muslims got their own free land ? After a lot of rapin' and genocidin' by their Muslim brothers, that's how. Similarly, them Shias need their own land too.
Blasphemy ; Looks like the "patrai" was placed on the wrong kind-of Taliban. Wonder who is next in line of the Good Taliban : Mullah Baradar or Jalaluddin Haqqani himself.
Wow, and all i ever read was that Pakistan is called the Concubine among Nations willing to sell itself to its highest bidder the trend starting from your Quaid-e-Azam right down to Meow Musharraf to Zardari sab par bhaari.
