I remember reading somewhere that 60 cups of coffee would supposedly yield the same level of hallucinations as 1 dose of LSD....I don't know about anyone else, but I think 60 cups of coffee would mess me up a lot more than 1 dose of LSD...
1) Novell
2) NetApp
3) Checkpoint
4) McAfee (let's hope so!)
5) Salesforce.com
6) Juniper, CA, and AMD are tied for sixth place.
7) Sun, no surprise there
8) Citrix
9) Symantec (again, let's hope so!)
10) VMware
Are you fucking kidding me?? This looks like a highly biased wishless from a FOSS advocate, instead of a likely scenario. I hate proprietary crap as much as the next slashdotter, but c'mon people, let's be realistic.
...and I would say that the majority aren't actually how they are depicted here
My hiring manager, as well as friends that work in the IT head-hunting industry, would beg to differ. According to my boss, it was my social skills that set me apart from every other applicant and ultimately won me the job over the others. According to them, it's tough to find someone in IT who knows their shit and possesses good social skills.
After reading the article, I notice they make mention that this works by utilizing data provided from Direc3D....does anyone know if this works with OpenGL-based games as well?
Similarly, KDE has something like this called KWallet. I use it quite a bit (well, it kind of forces itself on you), but I've been pretty happy with the result...one password to rule them all.
Probably because this is the first time as far as anyone can remember that Microsoft has had to do anything like this, indicating that they're not doing so hot in the financial department.
I know this will be seen as a troll, but who the hell uses Java for ray-tracing or with OpenGL?
I'm not sure about the former, but there have been some interesting uses of the latter. Check out Jake2 sometime. It's Quake2 recoded in Java with full OpenGL support. Obviously it's not going to perform as well as it's native counterpart, but it is very playable and cross-platform.
God, don't even get me started on the performance issues. I still have a hard time understanding how the nVidia drivers can affect the performance in KDE4, but they apparently do. nVidia's acknowledged it and have even released updated drivers to tackle the issue (they even say 'KDE4' in their changelogs). I really hope they get their shit together soon, as I'm really liking KDE4.
I'll save you 5 minutes of research....stick with nVidia.
But in all seriousness, I agred with your point. It seems like their Linux drivers have taken a shit compared to previous releases. Personally for me, I have a lot of artifacting issues in KDE4 that are apparently related directly to nVidia's drivers from what I've read.
Wow. As a native Austinite, I'm completely ashamed of this teacher's actions. Nothing pisses me off more than stupid teachers spitting out condescending "teacher talk" in the guise of doing whats right for the children. This teacher has no clue what she's talking about, but sure as hell doesn't jump on the chance to swing around her proverbial dick. I just hope by the time I have kids, I make enough money to afford sending them to private school. Public schools in the US are nothing more than a glorified daycare.

Sweet...I need a good plan B for when melatonin doesn't work.

XMAS comes early, my friend.
Hey, Ray, by the way, I think I speak for lots of people when I say thank you for what you're doing in this area.
You defiantly speak for me. Thanks a million for everything you do!

We really _should_ give Texas back to Mexico.
Let's relocate Austin (where I'm from) to California, and you have yourself a deal!
It seems that nVidia is still stupidly keeping the OpenGL support as a Quadro-only feature.
Huh? So it's just my imagination that my GeForce 9800gtx (as well as all other GeForce cards) can run OpenGL applications natively?
Welp, to answer my own question, it looks like it does not. That's a shame, as the only game I really play is ETQW.

Allow me to translate this into a language us Americans can understand:
Derka derka, Muhammad jihad!

I don't get why this is news?

I celebrate Festivus, you insensitive clod!

Next time I'll give a much harder look at amd.

KRAMER: Look at this, they are redoing the Cloud Club.
JERRY: Oh, that restaurant on top of the Chrysler building? Yeah, that's a good idea.
KRAMER: Of course it's a good idea, it's my idea. I conceived this whole project two years ago.
JERRY: Which part? The renovating the restaurant you don't own part or spending the two hundred million you don't have part?
Ah ok...thanks for clearing that up.
I thought the McCain jokes would be done with after the election.
Excuse me if this is a dumb question, but how does this differ from the journal in many existing filesystems?

That would be used for what, exactly?
A cell phone that provides functionality to tune into FM radio stations perhaps? That'd be a nice feature for the next iPhone.
Haha, yea. I remember seeing that scene, pausing, rewinding, then going frame-by-frame to verify I saw what I thought I did.
