Re:not surprising...Nothing impressive really - it has an off the shelf PC as it's core, so the article is really like saying "Getting Linux to run on a Dell" which is about as easy. The guy basically lifted the lid on a cash register, found a PC and installed Linux. In hindsight, the LED display isn't as impressive as it first seems - the PC will be geared up to talk to it anyway so no extra prizes there.
Pacman on my Kodak Digital Camera was more impressive...

Re:Transmeta and G4
Well, according to this page, the cargo volume of a 747 is 175m^3. That doesn't include the passenger space, which could include a good number of CDs itself.
A spindle of 100 CDs is about 5cm tall, 12 cm in diameter. Assuming (non-optimal) packaging where each spindle takes up a square box of 12x12x5cm, you have 0.00072m^3 for a 100CDs. 175/0.00072 = 243,056, so you can fit 243,056*100 CDs, or 24,305,600 CDs.
If these were 700MB CDs, you could fit 166TB of data in the 747's cargo hold.
You can take the bandwidth calculations from here :). -

Re:Dear Katz...How many final fantasy players do you think exist in the world?
If you consider how many copies of FF games have been sold (6+ million just FF7) and that each copy is played by more than just the buyer then: many millions have played the FF games.
Only a complete moron makes a blockbuster movie for
.0001% of the populationThat's about 600000 people worldwide. Id guess like
.01% and that's ok. Considering a large part of the people in the world don't have the money to go to movies... And I still think it is largely aimed at the FF players who hopefully will drag their friends to the thetre too. That should make a lot of viewers.What I do find interesting is that you imply that Jon (or anyone else) has no right to review the movie because they didn't play the game? That's crazy.
Well, I was a bit pissed..
:) .. He has the right to review but he should try to view it from several angles but his own. He is reviewing for the community of which I think many have played FF7 or are interesten in CG. What I'm trying to say is he should be a bit more openminded.If any slasdot readers can be passionate about something and unbiased at the same time
*lol*
.. :) .. I don't think it's a /. thing. How many passionate/unbiased people do you know.. ;)

$HOME is where the .*shrc is -
"10 years"? big deal!187 years ago, "Norway" was invented. "Norway" is a virtual community where people can "treffe venner" (meet friends), "gaa paa kino" (watch cinema), even "spise reindyrsfilet" (eat reindeer). Unlike the web, which is organized by "links", Norway is organized by "roads" and "fjords". Instead of "clicking" on a "link", one can "drive" on a "road" to get to a new destination or take the "hurtigruta" to a different fjord. Like the web, however, Norway is somewhat balkanized -- there are over 37 dialects of its markup language, "Norwegian".
In any case, Glad Syttendemai til internet venner vaaren i Norge!

Re:DeCSS = 1st amendmentStill, do you think there's many people mirroring DeCSS in Zimbabwe?
Who talked about Zimbabwe? There are other countries besides the US and Zimbabwe: Austria, the Christmas Islands, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Israrel, Italy, Luxembourg, Mexico, Netherlands, Nieu, Norway, Poland, Russia, Slovenia, Sweden, Switzerland, Tonga, The United Kingdom, just to name a few
you can't deny that the US is a significant portion of the west.
However, lately, Europe has rediscovered its self esteem, and doesn't hesitate to occasionnally give the finger to the US (see recent Echelon investigation, and some recent crypto decisions).

Finally... a story where this is *not* offtopic...and I'm asleep at the keyboard. Doh!

Re:scientology reference?
This is really a fund raising effort for the Church of Scientology. It features well known scientologists in the lead roles (and in cameos) all of whom pay a percentage of their salaries to the church. Anybody who is thinking this is just a SF movie is fooling themselves.
A secondary role for this movie will be to recruit some new blood into the church. Please do some research before you go see this movie. At least be aware who you are giving money to.
you can start here -
Well... you asked for it
When emmitt posts something that is just flamebait, somebody will take him up on it, so it might as well be me! =) Anybody who is wondering what $cientology is really about check out this site which is a decent look at how those people screw people over. It's disgusting really... and now they are making L. Ron's movies??? What's the world coming to?

Time for Slashdot to take a stand...
The following is a list of all the mirrors from the 2600 site.
Slashdot has long been one of the best true forums for free speech in the world. Link to this comment. Post that link on your website and everywhere. CmdrTaco archives these comments indefinitely, right? Lets see the MPAA take on Slashdot, Andover, and the ACLU (who I'm assuming would back you guys up) BTW: When I click the "Post Anonymously" button, is there any way to retrieve my IP address, or my login info? I sure as hell hope not. Big risk I'm taking here for the sake of free speech... but we gotta do what we gotta do. Right?

Re:On the first day of Chrismas...
Nice, but for my half-geek grrrl (check out this! ) who is 1662 kilometers away from me (And an ex now) I sent her a homemade Christmas calendar with hand wrapped (me, of course) candy. She's lovely and good Christmas traditions are worth hanging on to, even if you split up. My "first" ex (before this one ) gets only coal in her sock...

programming language and clarityThe most interesting line of comments that has popped up is the one associating unmaintainable code with specific languages. Notice though that the article specifically mentions Java, which is among the clearest languages today (though not without its faults).
What differentiates maintainable code from spaghetti code is not just whether or not the syntax of the language allows for obfuscated code, or if all of the variables and functions are documented and clearly named, if some code conventions are followed or if it has been run through a beautifier, but whether the code was written with a clearly thought-out and documented design.
If the programmer has actually taken the time to think about the data structures, the algorithms, and the classes(or program sections if you aren't using an OO language), then the code becomes truly understandable. This is not to say that you can then ignore good programming techniques -- they are still necessary -- but that documenting every function, variable and data structure in a program that is otherwise a crufty mess is pretty much a waste of effort. Try it sometime -- look at the source code for Perl, and have the perlguts man page and Gisle Aas's wonderful illustrated guide to Perl's internals handy, and you'll get the idea.
I've seen code in lots of languages that would be considered 'maintainable' if all it took was strictly following a convention, but in fact was frustratingly difficult to maintain because the programmer didn't have a clear design for the system.

Re:Once there was Mnemonic
Hardly anyone using Linux today has ever heard of Mnemonic...
I think that's sad. Partly of course because Mnemonic has a derivative of my C code in it, and partly because I believe in the availability of choice (I guess this link should say enough about just that).I don't think everyone should push behind one browser, at least not all of the time. Push to get it released, yes, but not push to make it become a "standard" of it's own. Netscape used to be the "standard" browser, now it's IE4/5. The web designers/authors follow that "standard" and create content looking its best in that browser. How it looks in other browsers they often do not care much about.
And I think that's sad. Sad because people seem to like it that way, and they end up using the browser the creators use. Secondly because it leaves me with less options. I recently had a harddrive crash, and my old P75 isn't too keen on running X. Mail & news is done with emacs, so I had no trouble with that, but when I wanted to check out some web sites for my daily doze of news: forget it! There's no good structural markup so Lynx is badly choking.
I surely hope that Opera releases the text browser they mentioned before, so that Lynx gets good competition. From the screenshot it looked like a really nice browser, and a useful one for when I only have console access to my system.
As others have mentioned already, why not have a browser that simply does one job, and does it well. For me that's a good idea. Others might want other things, and that's what we have helper applications, plug-ins and the like for. They can add to the already existing platform and create the browser of their choice (add c00l skinz and great sound effects for extended pleasure).
I'm all for choice. Mozilla might become my preferred browser when it's out due to its support for standards, and the fact that it so far looks to be a fast browser. Or I might choose Opera 4 (for Windows) since 3.6 is a fast and standards compliant browser, so therefore v4 should become another fast and standards compliant browser. Maybe I'll end up on a Mac with iCab... who knows... but I want the options.

VNC anyone?
I have been setting up some thin clients based on our old (8MB, no hard disk) 486s. I boot off a floppy based on a modified LODS, which in turn is a modified Hal91 distribution. The machines are too small to boot X (thus, I can't use muLinux - it needs at least 16MB to boot X). VNC is ideal for me, I can have one big server with 10 running copies of the application I provide to the clients, which are completely stateless - you just boot the client and it appears exactly where you left it. On a LAN, display speed is perfectly comparable to X, and it can also be deployed (albeit VERY slowly) over a modem.
I don't buy Java. Simply, it is an ugly language. If I were to start selling and marketing an all-purpose thin client solution (unlike mine, which is very purpose-specific), I would maybe build a Perl interpreter into its hardware... It would be much more appealing than Java to many programmers. (Of course, I'd have to get big bucks to do so ;) )
Anyway, my 20 mexican cents worth ;) -
Done that - it's easy
I have two possible solutions for you. Which one you will choose will depend on how your workplace is set up.
The first solution is to set up a full X server on a floppy-based Linux distribution - you can take a look at muLinux (http://mulinux.nevalabs.org). This solution requires 16MB RAM, in order to expand X to a RAM disk. muLinux is extremely loaded, given that it fits into one, two, three or four floppies (depending on your needs - I think you will stick with two).
A much lighter solution would be to use a smaller and more specialized distribution, such as LODS (Linux One Disk Svncviewer, http://home.rochester.rr.com/specht/lods/ ) - It has nothing but the minimum necessary to boot and fire svncviewer, a simple bash with the most basic commands, an editor to modify it... And, I think, that's about it. LODS is based on another minidistribution, Hal91 (http://home.sol.no/~okolaas/hal91/hal9 1.html), and is fairly easy to configure and modify. In fact, if you are interested, I can send you the images I use at my workplace - it just boots and fires svncviewer, which connects to your vncserver and looks just like X. Users may even think it is a diskless terminal, takes not more than two minutes to load... and, basically, works great :)
I use it on 486/33 machines with 16MB, though I'm sure it will fit on 8MB RAM. Mail me if you need more info. -
cp -a etc
I see most ppl say "cp -a". I usually do it that way too, but you'd better not do that when the system is up and running since a running system keeps changing files (logfiles etc). In my opinion the best way to deal with this is to boot the system from a bootdisk (I use hal91, which is a Linux-distro on 1 floppy), then mount all the old partitions under
/mnt/hda? and the new ones under /mnt/hdb?. Then I copy them with "cp -a /mnt/hda1/* /mnt/hdb1" etc. Then I run mkswap, unmount all the partitions and reboot the system with a bootdisk. Then I rerun LILO (don't leave CHS-settings for your old disk in the append-line!). So my two tips: (1) Use a bootdisk like hal91 and (2) Use cp -a (-a is for archive) -
reverse engineering resourcesinformation on how to reverse engineer is all over the web. fravia, the first site listed, is by far the most detailed, has been around a very long time, and has at least 6 mirrors, in europe, asia, a couple in the usa, etc.
The more interesting question is, given that most of these sites have been around so long, why dont we see more reverse-engineering of software going on? i think the availability of all this information (especially on fravia) weakens esr's argument significantly. regardless of what he says, reverse-engineering is really, really difficult, even for small pieces of code. i dont think he'll convince very many people based on that argument.
As for the appropriate tools, a while ago i found copies of wdasm and softice using ftpsearch (remember, one version of softice was a fully operational time-demo which could be cracked by itself). much of the other stuff you might need that ive seen are freeware or shareware.

searching for fraviajust found one mirror that STILL works. most of them dont though! what the heck? i hope this one doesnt get wiped too.
australian mirror of fravia.org
anyway fravia's friend greythorne is still up.
others:
by the way, i doubt fravia is a great source of legal advice on cracking protection. but its still one of the best sites ive ever seen anywhere on the web.

Distribution of Free Energy in a system
I am struggling with this same issue. The real question is how to best distribute the free energy (capital) which is generated by the entirety of a successful-happy-productive population, such as the emerging OSS.
We are in complete agreement on the Jeffersonian angle. I am convinced that the free energy, and most importantly its technology, must be widely distributed, in the model of OSS if we, as in mankind, are to survive. These same principles of OSS-mode distribution would apply not only to software and communications, but also small community-based nuclear power units and to agriculture and waste management. Setting the potential individualist-abuse issues aside, the wide distribution of techology becomes all the more important as new and more powerful forms of free energy are discovered. As our host no doubt also struggles re the /.effect, I am also struggling with determining the minimum and maximum population sizes required to sustain an OSS system against a Bill Gates, for example. It may become a very important issue.
I don't know why it seems that so many key figures in the struggle for technological freedom seem to be emerging out of Scandinavia, but http://home.sol.no/~arnomd/bibfin.html has about as good a piece on creation of actual physical wealth v. accumulation of financial power as I have seen. Good luck. -
News?
Yeah, I've been using one for my wearable for more than a year now.. The ppl over at MIT have used them much longer.. It's a great keyboard, but for a normal PC, I'd reccomend a normal keyboard, unless you for some reason are unable to type with two hands.
