Once these babies are in position, they'll be able to take nice pictures of the Apollo mission sites. ...which he'll probably claim are faked, too. Never underestimate the power of the human mind to ignore blatant proof.
Hmm -- there's not some source you can go to to get this information? Especially in the case of wireless connectivity, I'd assume there would be some official public FCC source -- after all, all those magic waves going through the air just could be affecting our health...
I've been using Linux from the early days, mostly for scientific computing. For that it is great. But the problem is that linux has so many driver complications, and users tend to blame it on the companies that make the devices, and things never go anywhere as a result. Well, the only driver problems I've ever had with Linux have been with ATI cards (which is ATI's fault) and the aforementioned wireless mess, and I still don't see how this isn't the fault of the companies. But, if I'm wrong, someone please enlighten me.
Yep -- I actually use it every single day. Never had any more problems with it than I do with any other program. My organization mostly uses the backend part of notes (IBM Domino) to run web applications, and those run just fine, too.
Can someone please explain to me why there is so much hatred for Lotus Notes here on Slashdot? Doesn't everyone know that the only alternative out there is Microsoft Exchange?
Does the hatred for Lotus Notes here actually override the hatred for Microsoft? Amazing!
Aye -- IBM has apparently abandoned SmartSuit -- they don't plan on even making a Vista-compatible version, from what I hear. Trust me, I know -- it's what we use in my shop, and we're in a awful mess right now because there's so many spreadsheets flying around in SmartSuite's (unfortunately) proprietary format.
Isn't this so large that it should be deemed a threat to national security? Not just to one country's national security, but ANY country's. Shouldn't there be a half dozen senior analysts from a few different countrys and from NATO HUNTING the people that control this thing and figuring out how to neutralize it? Sorry, your theory requires competent people running a government, not those who use terms like "the Google."
Old people will take a brand new 24" LCD widescreen monitor and run
it at 800x600 to make things look bigger. They can't tell that it
looks horrible off-native res, or that they've destroyed any hope of
a good aspect ratio. Oh, you bet they do -- I always remember my first tech support call to help a user who "couldn't see everything on the screen" only to realize that the development environment that I had been told was going to be populated by "users of 1024x768 and above" was actually being used by folks running 800x600 resolutions... on their brand new 20-in HP flatscreens.
...what Microsoft is doing is trying to unsettle the marketplace. It isn't working and has not had the slightest impact on those companies that refuse to be drawn into that line of discussion with Microsoft.
Seems to me Shuttleworth is saying the exact opposite of what this Slashdot editor thinks. I see it as Shuttleworth saying that the Linux community is now fractured between those who made the deals with Microsoft and those who didn't. Shuttleworth only said that Microsoft hasn't had any effect on those companies that haven't been "drawn into that line of discussion with Microsoft."
You're right! Why didn't we think of that before! Let me just cancel my Charter account and move to....
nothing. Charter's the only provider for my area.
Whoa... but isn't what you did like a perfect example of the proper application of Fair Use?
Dark patches over a white surface? If you ask me, it looks like the other way around -- take a look:

Doesn't it look like the white is covering the black and slowly un-covering it due to craters forming?
I just now got Ubuntu working fine with my wireless card. I'll be damned if I'm moving to another bloody OS after all that. :P

I wish someone would tell my shop this -- their solution was nothing but "Office 2007 Office 2007 Office 2007 Office 2007."
It's like I RTFA, but then again I don't feel like I RTFA. Anyone else notice that? Is there some "Page 2" button I'm missing?

I think he was talking about PSD's only -- no matter what system, they can be really big, and take a while to load up in Irfanview.
You're thinking of Leto (his son). And Duncan was asking for it.
Quiet, Donny -- you're out of your element.

The problem is... where does it stop? Do I get sued for giving a friend of mine a copy of a CD that he was never going to buy, anyway?
Captain, sensors have picked up the Internet, dead ahead.
Godwinned, you damn nazi!
...I just Godwinned myself. I will now leave the internet.
Eh... who the hell pays for college for a kid who's smart? Let scholarships and student loans pick up that bill. Enjoy your golden years, my friend.

Good point. You could probably set a cookie the first time you do this, and then check it upon refresh to see if you're still in a frame.
No offense, but isn't that kinda... weird tasting?
Aww, you're right -- fuck it. I'm going back to BBS.
