Re:For those of us who don't follow such things...
Ahh, here we go:NetBSD on xbox
-
Re:HehYep, and to top it off, I hacked the xmms port to compile with ipv6 support. I just diffed the contents of the xmms tarball there with the original, made a patch, and submitted it to FreeBSD gnats here.
Oh, you just want the ipv6 patch I made from it? Go ahead, take it. Just go to your xmms 1.2.7 source root and do a patch -p0, oh well, y'all know the drill.
Have fun listening

Re:never (OT, sorry)A PDP-11 UNIX runs in about 2 Mo of RAM. Although I modded my begemot emulator to do 4 MB (and the address space supports it
:). Anyway, my emulator is up and running, and boasting a webserver I coded myself here.My point, no that wouldn't fit either,Hate to burst your bubble.

Re:micro_httpdDrat... 7 kb? Damn... My simple a.out webserver can't top that.
-rwxr-x--x 1 root 31730 Mar 4 00:29 webserver
Yes, that's a stripped executable. But of course it's an emulated pdp11 running a crappy 2.11BSD, nothing special. Oh, if you want to look at the pages it serves and download the vintage K&R source, you're welcome here. Be gentle though
:) -
Re:You've got to admire these guysHuh?
(yeah, that was an old (last years) april fool joke of mine, but what the heck
:) Lots of japanese fell for it hook, line and sinker.) -
Re:Skill sets?Is that you Tsutsomu? I know we never _could_ get along... And now you resort in posting as an anonymous coward on slashdot? Sheesh...
Oh, and you book sucked, by the way.
(FYI+E, I used to own an acoustic coupler modem for my commodore 64. 300 baud sweetness. So there.)
Yeah I know the parent is a troll. To prove my geekness to all of you who are still doubting: here's a webserver for a PDP-11 emulator running some old BSD operaing system that I wrote out of boredom. If that isn't hacking (wrt hack value) I don't know what is
:). Be gentle though. It's not a speedy emulation. -
I got a mail from the original author!Indeedy, IMD is not dead (like some people here said). Eric masson mailed me, and better yet, he sent me screenshots. He's been working on it underground, and the IMD is looking pretty good. Also, sourcecode is going to be provided at that snazzy sourceforge place.

Re:Alright. Have an screenshot or two
The DHTML page didn't work, like you said. But you test for browsers in the javascript. When I asked Konq to pretend to be MSIE, it did work.
Oh, I use the latest Konq from the KDE 3.1 beta's

Re:a question
My mail address is pretty public, since I have my own site, and I get deluged by korean spam. I have no clue why. Maybe they try to get back at me for that NetBSD on the X-BOX hoax I pulled last April 1st. Who knows? At least I have spamassasin to rid me of these goofs. Oh, and spamassasin blocks the someonelikesyou mails here. Just checking... yep, I got a few too. Oh well...

Re:Advocacy, we never knew thee.
I did some tests:
sh-2.05a$ ./swapbench
xorswapping 10 secs: 6999572 iterations
tmpswapping 10 secs: 7785816 iterations
The code for this is here. I know it's not really a representative benchmark, but it does show the point somewhat. And yes, using a temp variable is hella faster. -

Re:It certainly was :)Oh, and btw (I hate replying to myself, but I just HAVE to share this):
I caught Microsoft redhanded looking at my netbsd-xbox page
:)I couldn't keep this nugget from you guys. This made my day
:) -
It certainly was :)I had a very cool april fool webpage up. Too bad Malda and his cohorts never posted it. But I had fun too. Especially the process of getting mail from people that thought it was the real thing
:-)Hint: read the HTML source of that link. Things will be clearer. The CVS $Id$ is a bit of a giveaway as well

Re:I deserve a plus 5you forgot NetBSD ported to the X-BOX.
(Yeah I know, offtopic. Like it matters today. NOT

Re:In other news today...And don't forget this one:
Some nut ported NetBSD to the X-BOX I tell ya... It's been a weird day...
-
I Like ThinkGeek...Ahh, yes. ThinkGeek. I love them.
Their Caffeine candy sampler really helped me out on late-night coding on my latest project. Especially the penguin mints. I have lots of their t-shirts in my wardrobe. I bought mousepads and desktoppers from there. My office is plastered with posters. I am a true fan. Good to see initiatives like this on slashdot.
(Oh, and a happy april fool to you all)

Re:12 month uptime + crash = hardware failure
Try here. (and please be gentle to my webserver)
-
Re:12 month uptime + crash = hardware failureI hate replying to myself, but if you somehow try to compile memtest86 on *BSD, you need this file. It's a patched linkage.h. Edit the head.S file in the source tree to include this file instead of linux/linkage.h .
Hope that helped you all out a bit
:) -
Yup, this is a valid problem...
I run hackerheaven.org and I am also suffering from lack of content. As things move slow, the site isn't updated for a long time. This will ultimately kill it of course. I also know that things like these start slow. I guess I'll have to tough it out. In the end it comes down to how much patience you got...

Well, I can play their game too...Well, I'll probably get the beef that I'm no better than them, but...
I just blocked all MSIE browsers from my site. They get a lengthy story about why MSIE is bad and that there are good alternatives for them. If you want to read it, just go here with MSIE or just read the page they get redirected to here
It will probably severely cut the amount of visitors, but I don't advertise anything (I don't have banners) and I don't sell anything. So I got nothing to lose. Microsoft can take their browser and go to hell for all I care. My target audience will probably never notice.
Oh, and take it easy on that web server

Easily patched
Some strategically placed tolower() calls in the source would fix this I think. My guess is that the module from apple basically does this too. I got a Darwin/OSX box at home. I will take a gander amd make a patch if I have the time. Shouldn't be a biggie
Hey, you got the source, fix it. You don't even need apple's module. Maybe a #ifdef DARWIN macro for this would be an idea.

Re:It's thereI beg to differ. People who send me
.doc files usually also send me their undo-buffer in the .doc files, so I can see what they typed first... And let's not forget all teh other information that gets stored in there, like Author, Domain/Machine name and other nifty stuff.Has anyone here checked that out and disseminated that already?

Re:Kurt on slashdotI will probably get flamed to hell for having an unpopular view, but I'll say it anyway:
The two operating systems are both fundamentaly different. Read the Atheos webpage (when it's not so congested) and/or the article. Atheos is not intending to be the next GPL BeOS clone. All Atheos has in common with Be is that Atheos gleaned some ideas from the BeOS. Nothing more, just like GNOME which borrowed lots of ideas from anywhere else.
Atheos is not and never will be BeOS, deal with it.

Re:Time to make a stand.
Whoah there... Apple never violated GPL because they never used the GPL. Their Darwin OS uses BSD licensed code, and is not at fault. Get your facts straight before spouting off like that...

Re:Signing away copyright.
Hey come on! What better way to steal^H^H^H^H^Hinnovate ideas by letting the end user sign a waiver that relieves him of ownership. Miscrosoft is saving the end-user money that way by avoiding the need to sue the property away from said person. They already own it! Thank you microsoft, thank you. Ow bugger... my win2k is having that bug^H^H^Hinsect-like behaviour again... gotta reboot!

Re:InaccurateBlockquoteth the poster:
When the very functionality of the system is endangered and the user (or in this case the users data) is laied naked before the world that's a time for a RECALL OF THE PRODUCT MS does this. According to them, they recommend all users install Critical Update Notification for Windows. This is akin to a product recall - when a serious bug comes up they update the Critical Notification records, and everyone running it recieves a patch.
Right, and you *trust* the automatic patch installing? What if I'm at the same subnet that you are on, and I use some hackery with ARP or DNS cache poisoning to convince your host that *MY* machine is the windowsupdate.microsoft.com machine? Well, I I have bad intentions, you're screwed. It relies on host names (a.k.a. DNS and IP numbers). It's insecure.I'd rather download patches and check them md5 checksums. Call me paranoia, but it *DOES* matter.
How do you know that the Microsoft network isn't compromised (they had the odd breakin now and then)? Do you trust them? Why? Because they say so?
Just rememver the microsoft/verisign hassle from last week. No way microsoft will touch my machines. I just don't trust them.

Re:MSIE under MacOSX not native OSX app...Oh, right... I'm now in MacOS 9.1 (and I don't feel like rebooting to check), but I'll take your word for it.
I'm still using the public beta as well. Still very satisfied with it. Shipping date is coming soon btw. Three days to X-day! I can't wait

MSIE under MacOSX not native OSX app...so the author needn't worry.
MSIE under Mac OS X is a *Carbon* app. This means that it runs the same binary as on the usual MacOS.

Uh-oh... Did they include the piglatin?Quote from article:
Napster actually has received a total of 6 million filenames, including spelling variations, from the recording industry, a Napster spokeswoman said. That number represented 26,000 artist/song title pairs the company said have been effectively blocked from its service.
Time for the rot-13 songname 'encoding' scheme then, or double pig-latin (remove first two letters from word and place on the end)

:)Can someone mod that up? This is the OT3 from the fishman affidavid. It's hilariously silly.
Read it. Think about it. Roll of your chair laughing.
Actually, Co$ can't so anything about this, because the fishman affidavid can be freely published, according to my lovely Dutch law system. Thank miss Karin Spaink for that

Re:10,000 hour life
I mean 50hrs per week average TV viewing * 52 weeks says these puppies croak in four years of average use.
Yeah, but replacing them should be a snap, and wouldn cost that much. (in 4 years the price of these screens will surely haved dropped somewhat)
