Which VNC Software Is Best?
Futurepower(R) writes "Which VNC software do you think is best, and why? There are several free programs, for example, TightVNC, RealVNC, UltraVNC, and TridiaVNC. Or, is it better to pay for VNC software, like Tridia VNC Pro or Radmin? Which is fastest, most secure, and the least hassle? Which has video resolution scaling of the remote desktop?"
... less filling!
Grab the latest copy of Azureus. I've had no issues between it and UltraVNC. Of course, it only does torrents, but what do you need those other P2P protocols for anyway? ;-)
Javascript + Nintendo DSi = DSiCade
Shouldn't this be a poll question?

There's no constitutional law against foreign-born nationals becoming Governor of California, of course, but there is certainly one against them becoming President of the United States. Article II, Section 1: "No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty five years, and been fourteen Years a resident within the United States." This presents a problem for any presidential aspirations for Arnold.
But don't worry! Our fine lawmakers have made the occasional stab to remove this limitation out from under us.
In July of 2003, Senator Orrin Hatch introduced a proposed amendment to the constitution to allow anyone foreign born and a resident for twenty years to be eligible for the office of President. Hatch and Schwarzenegger are old friends, and it is widely held that this amendment was a favor, should the governorship turn out to be a potential stepping stone as it was for the previous actor.
Interestingly enough, Congressman Barney Frank introduced similar legislation in 2000 to remove the natural-born requirement from the presidental rules as well, citing the lack of opportunity given to people who have joined the country and shown throughout their lives to be fine citizens. And even more interesting are the following words between Representative Frank and one of the witnesses during the Judiciary Committee meeting in which the bill was killed, which we'll leave you thinking about:

Is it true that more people vote for the winner of American Idol, than vote for the president? -Ali G.
I heard, he could run for "Vice-President" is this true?
and if so...
what would happen in a scenario of the President not being able to continue, would he become president, if he could be vp that is.
But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.
In order to be VP, a person must meet all requirements to be President (35 years old, natural born citizen). So, unless Congress passes a new amendment (2/3 vote required) and the states ratify it (3/4 of the states), no. Arnold cannot be President or Vice President. He can be a Senator, Cabinet member, or Chief Justice, though.

Responding to your sig: "PromiseUltra100CardOfDeath"
We had perhaps 10 Promise controllers, and could not make them work under Windows XP. They work fine under Windows 98.
It is possible that Microsoft has done something to make software/hardware RAID controllers like Promise fail under Windows XP. That would mean more people would buy Windows Server. We tried another software/hardware RAID mirroring controllers, from HighPoint, and they had the same problem.
We also were not able to get any meaningful technical support from Promise Technology, even after months of asking.
I thought this was slashdot where everyone uses Linux?
It has everything to do with graphics performance for most mythology-based, fantasy-themed games - for example, when you're playing Linux Neverwinter Nights over VNC.
(No, I haven't done that, but some people apparently did, and were quite successful. My own only surprise was inadvertedly finding out that NWN actually runs pretty well under Mesa software rendering - no hirez textures and was painful to play on anything over 640x480, but still, it was pretty cool...)
That's "crack moderation". "Crackmoderation" (no space) is what you (and millions of other moderators) do with your mod points immediately after lighting the pipe up.
