    and recently my browser was getting hijacked by spyware. Sigh, even we are not safe anymore. I found a guide on how it works and how to remove it HERE

  2. Get a Mini-iPod by Arkham · · Score: -1, Offtopic · on Buying Music from Other than iTunes?

    Apple is widely rumored to be releasing a "mini-ipod" that (a) is smaller and (b) costs less than the current ones, with prices of $99 to $149 being floated around for a 2GB model and $149 to $199 for a 4GB model.

    Just wait and get one of those. You don't want to use a crappy service with WMA audio when in a week you can get the real thing.

  3. Simphile Seems to do something similar by spot35 · · Score: 1 · on GZipping Life Forms: Deflate Reveals Bare-Bones

    But not quite. It detects patterns but it does use gzip in a similar manner.

    Simphile uses the gzip program to detect patterns in two files. Used to determine things from whether two sonnets where written by shakespeare or whether certain sounds files came from the same source.

  5. Re:It has worked quite well... by LinuxGeek · · Score: 1 · on Linus Explains his Patch Policy

    I didn't say that BSD was emulated, re-read my comments. I did question the validity of calling MacOS X a *BSD in the same manner that an installation of OpenBSD is called a *BSD.

    And since the first Mac was released in 1984, the architecture that existed for sixteen years before OS X was released, it is 'recent' by comparison and is absolutely *not* the horse they rode while building the Mac following. Please don't feel like I am slighting any of the *BSD family, its not my intention. It will take a while for Apple to ween their faithful over to something that is a more complete ( read lack of emulation layers ) foundation. If their was a cheap PPC generic board or an X86 port of Mac OS X, I would be running it as at least one of my workstations. Until then, Linux and OpenBSD are my choice for stable platforms.

  7. Hoorah for CUPS! by tm2b · · Score: 4, Informative · on Mac OS X 10.2 Technote Released

    My favorite change: the printing system was been replaced with CUPS, allowing Mac OS X users with printers from companies who enjoy screwing Mac users (*cough* Epson *cough*) to use Gimp-Print drivers. Hoorah, open source support!

    How to install the Gimp-Print drivers is detailed here. It's trivial.
