I'd use Debian and ZFS for your NAS personally. And then you can just access the samba shares remotely via an SSH tunnel. Works out for me, anyhow. It's just terribly slow because I'm using two 40GB IDE drives in RAID1 on a 1.4GHz celeron with 1GB of RAM, and the server is currently running over a wireless bridge because I'm too lazy to run cables. But eventually I'm planning on building something fancy with SAS drives, striped across multiple raidz2 vdevs that will cost me quite a lot of money.
But yeah, it's pretty easy to access samba shares over SSH tunnel with Putty (well, I only did it on XP SP3). You have to add a loopback device, set the IP to 10.0.0.1, and the gateway to your actual gateway. Then in Putty you have to set up a tunnel that maps 10.0.0.1 to 127.0.0.1 on the remote server on port 139, if I recall correctly. May have had to restart and disable file sharing on the client computer, because 10.0.0.1 ends up being a loopback address of the client or something. It definitely worked though, just slowly.
Well, I mean, that is kind of a fallacy, suggesting that there are only two possible causes for these two men to hack some poor guy up with sharp objects. Anyway, not sure how two men shouting Islamic slogans while chopping a man up is "simply a symptom of immigration from undeveloped countries," considering there are plenty of countries with many Muslims which are hardly undeveloped countries. And I believe the article states the individuals in question are believed to have Nigerian ties, and personally Nigeria isn't what I would consider an undeveloped country.
What percentage of radicals is "that"? And what sect do you speak of?
Who is anti-western? All immigrants? Radical immigrants? Muslim immigrants? Radical Muslim immigrants? Immigrants from "undeveloped countries"? Immigrants from "undeveloped countries" who are radical?
Which ones?
How are they forced to live "here"? And who is "they" anyway? Pakistanis? Why do you mention Pakistanis?
What's that have to do with acts of terrorism and/or religious fundamentalism?
So, are you not concerned about gang rapes and acid attacks in general, but only when Europeans are the victims? Is it okay that such crimes occur, we just shouldn't have to witness it as Europeans et. al. in the Western World?
Not sure what monetary gains or lack thereof from immigration has to do with acts of terrorism. Personally, I do not think it should be easy to immigrate to the United States. I don't care about the pigment of their skin, I don't care about the country they're from, I don't care about their religion. In my opinion, the only ways people should be allowed to immigrate here are as follows:
Escaping unjust persecution or genocide
Have a resume showing they are employable/have usable skills
Are recently college/university educated
Could be considered dependent by our standards, of course, of anyone who meets one or more of the above requirements
My opinion on immigration, however, is not relevant to this thread. Just felt like sharing it just in case I am accused of things that have no relevance to the arguments at hand. I'm sure people will not be surprised to see a one-third-page-long multi-quoted post by me.
Another Pentax user, yay! I am a cheap(er?) bastard, so this is what I just bought:
It will be my first DSLR, but not my first SLR. It will be a nice compliment to my film SLR, the Pentax PZ-10. I only have two lenses though, a f/4.5 80-200mm and a f/2 50mm. Which of course would end up being 128-320mm and 80mm respectively when used on the dslr if I am not mistaken.
What do you mean "let your woman sleep with other guys?" It's not like you own a woman. Or maybe you do, but where I live that's not legal. Though I do think it would be cool to have a human pet. Like, if you treat them humanely why does it matter if you own a person? So long as they are willing to be your pet/[sex] slave, though maybe it would be weird to have sex with your pet human. Also, I never knew independent meant polyamorous. That is kind of an odd outlook.
How do you know? What does it mean for a woman to value a relationship?
Why?
Generally you get your own way when you're not dependent on someone else to give you what you want.
They are? What is a natural sense?
Don't most people do what is best for themselves first? Some people may have other promises or commitments that they do not want to break, but ultimately they are doing so for themselves. Like giving to charity. Ultimately it is making the person donating the item/time/money feel better about themselves.
Then why don't you go rape an otter.
I think you do not understand what a fact is. There are many reasons why people make the choices they do. It can be environmental, genetic, or even chemical (like, obviously you make different choices if you are high on PCP for example).
How does one evaluate a girl? Do I have to evaluate a guy as well, or just girls?
I have no clue why you are saying this. You must not have read my post very closely. I suggest you read it again, less emotionally and more analytically.
