>Then you could do one of those mandrake full installs of 2gigs+:)
if you think that is big, try a full install of SuSE. 6.4 was 5 CD's of programs and one of source, or a DVD with everything on it. A less than full install of mine, clocked in at well more than 2 gigs.
at the school district i went to for high school, any class that had internet access required you to sign the AUP before you were allowed on the computers, so if the student didnt read it or understand it, it is thier own faults.
the time for the idle process, will always be less than the real uptime, the time next to that process, is the time the CPU has spent running that process, so when something else is running, the idle process isnt, and not gaining any time. Throw a distributed.net client on that machine for a couple days, then use your method and tell me its uptime. My guess is that your "uptime" would only be the time between the system boot and starting the dnet client.
1. Considering that i invented drugs and processes associated with creating them, i am moving to legalize drugs in th US provded that i get royalties on all sales. See #5.
2. Not sure about those you listed, but those eastern religions, budhists in partivular, will get protection.
3. I believe we should elimate taxes on money collected from royalties, and leave everyone elses taxes where they are at. see #5.
4. 3 parties? I invented a 2 party system, thats just how it is.
5. Considering the sheer amount of my inventions, and thier pervasive use throughout society, i am moving to completely abolish IP law and just create a system that reflects my ownership of all new inventions. Even if someone besides me can figure out how to invent something new and innovative, its going to be derivative of one of my many inventions, and i'll own it anyway, so this will save time, i'll just own all your thoughts.
6. I invented the Internet as all you slashdotters are aware, and i should be able to see everything that goes on on my invention, so is NSA approved crypto or no crypto.
7. No reason to concern, big corprations are good, since i will own all innvoation they might stumble accross under my new IP law.
8. Reagen called off the StarWars Defence system wen i threatened to sue him over the patent i hold on a planetary defense system, once i become presisdent i might decide to build it finally.
9. i think my^H^Hthe nation's mission is clear from the rest of my answers, define a new system for IP so i can get rich. The nation will benefit from that.
i am also a UT student, but dont live in the dorms (but the cable internet is nice here). The reason they dont block napster though, is once you hit 3Gbit outgoing traffic for the week, they shut off your port until whatever day they reset the counters.
kick me an email and we can talk:). I know its a DEC 3000 that i have, it has TURBOChannel bus arch, a couple 1 - 2 gig hd's (no longer in the case, the hd's, SCSI cable and CD-ROM have been cannibalized by other pc's of mine.). There is no monitor (lightning), but i do have a VT420 to go with it (and a keyed modular cable to connect it to the DEC). The machine is confirmed to work, and before i took the drives had a copy id Digital Unix 3.2b or c. I have the manuals and cd's and the machine is acting as a weight in my trunk atm. Let me know if you're interested.
Will features like this get put into the 760 reference chipset that AMD is going to publish, or do we have to wait for another chipset from AMD to see this one.
Seems like they just completely left out Alpha Hardware. I've been looking to get my hands on an Alpha system (have an old DEC3000? 233MHz(circa 1993) or something, but i want something newer).
someone should patent the act of hitting refresh every 1/100th of a second and then posting as soon as a new story pops up. Then when someone brags that they are leet and got the first post, you can hit them up for royalty payments.
And after that, patent a method for a device that will scan slashdot threads and post emily dickensen poems randomly.

This is already done, to a point. Go click on any users info page, and you can read all the comments that they posted over the past couple weeks, along with thier scores. This allows you the ability to go look at a users history, and form an opinion, or "rating" of the user for yourself, so you dont have to trust one someone else could make up for you.
This also has the benefit of the user being able to regain a rep if he desires, and not having the "karma whore" tag applied to him forever, since only the past couple weeks are shown.
i'm glad someone else noticed it too, i was about to go dig up the post myself and check.
it was cut and paste from the last/. article regarding black holes, and the sad part is that all the same corrections we see here were posted to his last attempt, and he didnt even bother to revise his knowingly bad post before reposting it.
not even good karma whoreing.
have you ever looked at a 19" moniter placed 2.5 feet from you (from the article). 1600x1200 is a stretch at that distance, 800x600 may be a bit low, but 1024x768 would be the highest i would be willing to look at at that distance on a 19" monitor.
Can i wear these with my prescription glasses, or should i start a class action suit for all of the glasses wearing audience that will be dicriminated against?
if only i had some moderator points right now, i would moderate you down as off topic and taking my focus away from the discussion at hand with your bicker over "hacking" and "cracking".....
what exactly does the soldering temperature have anything to do with? They are talking about the chip die, and there is no solder there excpet to the pin connectors. This chip itself is just a bunch of silicon and inpurities, and temperature and frequency can both contribute to the deterioration of the silicon, and thus your chip
No, a smurf attack consisits of sending and ICMP Echo packet to the bradcast address of a subnet who still allows that sort of thing, but the trick is, you spoofed the source IP in the IP header, so every host on that subnet sends an ICMP Echo Response packet to the spoofed source IP (your target). This has the benefit of multiplying you outgoung datastream by the number of hosts on the subnet you are bouncing from. it allows you to flood the target with much more bandwidth than you have available to you.
That is a smurf attack, emailing a Cell Phone does not count.
IIRC, Verant Interactive was founded by a bunch of guys who left Sony Online Entertainment to pursue the development of an idea they had. They say they have a 200+ document of the history of Norrath and a lot of other documents, and a lot of time (a couple years) put into just thinking the game out, then they put together a company, named it Verant Interactive, and when they had thier product, EQ, they gor bought up by Sony, the company the original guys were from in the first place. I forget the site i read this at, but ifi can dig it up, i'll throw a link up here.
no, hi didnt summarize an episode, but maybe a weeks worth of episodes. I've been watching Freeza fighting now for at least 2 weeks, and he will be fighting Goku now for probably another week or two. Nothing happes fast in DBZ, ex, at one point Freeza cripples Namek and it will explode in 5 minutes. Those 5 minutes last 7 or 8 episodes or something like that.
A friend of mine told me about a robot fighting competetion he had been to, and one of the robots was outfitted with a Halon system, and he was lucky enough to go against a bot that used a modified internal combustion engine. To halon bot backed into the other and released the gas, and no more combustion.
>First, even large server manufacters like Dell say that servers account for only about 14% of their sales.
Correct me if i'm wrong, but i wouldnt consider Dell a "large server mfg" for purposes of demonstrating that SMP is a small percentage of servers. Look to the real server mfgs, IBM, Sun, HP, Compaq, i'm willing to bet you will see a larger percentage of SMP systems. When thinking of servers, dont limit yourself to x86 hardware.
After reading this article, and everything else i have read pertaining to this case, this trial so far has been biased to say the least. I've read a couple quotes that clearly show the judge in this case already has his own picture of the ideals of a hacker and applies them to this case without really looking at what is going on. With the DMCA and judges like this one, the world of IP and corporate technology may be far different in a couple years than we know it today. Its scary to think of all the implications this legislation carries if someone doesnt stand up to it and try bringing it to a higher court.
I want a big MF computer. Not that it might be all that more poweful than something smaller, but i think an S80 systems that resides in 3 racks is a hell of a lot cooler than a dinky little pc. My PC itslef has a dual hot-swappable power supply and about 10 drive bays. why? because i can:) if i could have found an inexpensive board with remote i/o support i would have done that too.
The goal of project monterey was to create a stable enterprise unix for an intel platform. This was accomplished in AIX for the IA-64 platform. I submitted this story a couple days ago as well
