    If Soviet Russia isn't in a different universe, it is slowing down, too.

    We might theoretically have more time, but we move slower, too.

  5. Re:So we are becomming a black hole? on Universe May Be Running Out of Time · · Score: 1

    Maybe some sort of exra-dimensional black hole that we cannot detect with our current telescopes?

    We can only hope.

    It's called "class lecture". Next step is to get people to enjoy the extra time without eliminating it.

  10. Re:Hmm... on Yahoo! Slammed Over Piracy By Chinese Court · · Score: 1

    Considering that non-foreign companies are owned by the government, I don't think China will spend limit itself in this way when it may seriously cut into profits.

  11. Re:OH NOZ! on Yahoo! Slammed Over Piracy By Chinese Court · · Score: 1

    Is Yahoo an ISP or just a search provider in China? Or is AT&T called Yahoo over there?

    Additionally, it is not that simple to install any drivers that may be needed w/out the hard drive.

    You know what I meant. Would you prefer that I had said they had moved on to Ubuntu 7.10?

    Boxen owned by /. readers for the sake of having a 9x/ME box that they can practice on for when they troubleshoot their obsolete relative's system. May be a Virtual Machine or dual-booted with Slackware because that is the only other OS (besides DOS) that can use the same specs.

    Too many different people/languagos/cultures to buy all at once. In the US you only needto buy-at an absolute most-535 people (on the incorrect assumption that everything needs a unanimous vote to pass).

    Dell's been shipping Linux for a while. They just moved on to 7.10 when they had been shipping 7.04. No bigger news than when OEMs started selling Vista instead of XP. It was inevitable.

  22. Re:Until the next release? on Microsoft Agrees to Release Work Group Protocols · · Score: 2, Interesting

    That's how they are going to implement the "Extinguish" part of their plan. Release a new version (always incompatible w/it's predecessor) every week/month until Samba can no longer afford to keep buying the new specs. Does the agreement apply to future versions as well?

    I've always reckoned Microsoft should release the code for their unsupported OS's such as Windows 3.11 The OSs may be unsupported, but the code is still used.
