  1. linux! on First Peek at Netscape Navigator 9 · · Score: 0

    well I downloaded it before I read any of this stuff cause I do believe we owe a great deal to the Netscape people!! but it never worked... Undefined symbol XineramalsActive?

  2. Re:Exactly why I love linux on Microsoft Slaps Its Most Valuable Professional · · Score: 0
    Yes but on Windows you are allowed to write programs that can be used in your local nuclear facilities.

    Many BSD & Linux systems forbid this!!!

    You acknowledge that this software is not designed or intended for use in the design, construction, operation or maintenance of any nuclear facility.

    So what ya gonna do now buddy?

  3. Re:learn better parallel programming techniques? on Intel Updates Compilers For Multicore CPUs · · Score: 0

    All compilers abstract away the interface between the programmer and the CPU, its the main reason you use the compiler in the first place..

  5. Re:Gentoo-Linux-Zealot Translator-o-matic! on New Gentoo 2007.0 Release Gets Mixed Review · · Score: 0

    Just thought id give it my penny's worth! I've used just about every major Linux distro going from RedHat right up to deb's and have even used a few strange unworldly ones that should never be allowed even a mention so I wont.. My point is tho, I've always had problems with every distro and thats reasonable but I've been using Gentoo now for almost a year running 24/7 KDE & Gnome even VMware for some god forsaken Windows shite and have never once had any sort of problem, not even a single install issue? and to be honest I'm a hardcore developer, perhaps this is why I don't know but I really have no idea why so many people say bad things about Gentoo .. "its a god seed in this world of Linux distro's" it really is! One other thing that bugs me is everybody seem's to think you have to compile everything? you don't you can fetch pre-compiled just about anything and you don't have to use Gentoo deps you can use RPM's tars or just about any other package to install? I just can't see where the problem are that so many people hate it? :|

  6. Re:The real reason they don't want you to download on Will ISPs Spoil Online Video? · · Score: 0

    this is only half truth the real underlaying problem with ISP's and I know because I was head of systems for two internet company's is that they just cant provide a service to everybody with X amounts of bandwidth, for example lets say your ISP has for talks sake 20MB upstream and they say they provide you with 1MB but they have 200 customers.. this simply cant work! so they cap the bad stuff "P2P" etc in an attempt to save bandwidth for the rest of the customers..

  9. Patent Infringement Planting, Sabotage!! (PIP'S) on Why Microsoft Won't List Claimed Patent Violations · · Score: 0

    I've always been concerned with how easy it would be for somebody with an "MS/SCO agenda" to plant patented IP into the Linux kernel and/or open source software! Should all code get a good IP search before being allowed into Linux or any OSS software? I think so!
