OK that's enough. This is as far as I will even read your BS post. 'MY' processes?! In XP the graphics driver runs as ROOT. In Vista they made it a feature that for the first time it runs as a user. So how can I kill my graphics driver? You see... you don't know shit about computers, let alone Windows. Do you even know what's at it's core? Do you even know how Windows truely works within? And do you know why progress in Windows is so terribly slow? Do you know why with every new release Windows is getting slower and MS can't speed it up?
You probably don't know shit. I will gradly ignore your future BS. Have a nice life
Yes, Ubuntu is based on Debian but Ubuntu IS NOT Debian by any stretch of the imagination.
It just uses the same software and the same versions and has a different installer. No that's sooooo tooootaly sifferent. Seriously... that is as different from Debian as Windows 7 is different from Vista, in other words totally not.
And yes, there are 'Implementations' of KDE - Kubuntu uses a self modified version of KDE and introduces changes which are NOT supported by the KDE project - and because it is modified to suit Ubuntu it qualifies as an "implementation" as they implemented their new KDE. KDEmod on Arch is an Implementation modified to work perfectly with Arch Linux (a distro which has its ups and downs, but I am experienced enough to know how to deal with them).
OK so basically KDE needs to be modified to suit the distro. What? A different package manager? C'mon... what is there for Kubuntu to 'implement'? And if every distro needs a different implementation than how can you compare Kubuntu's implementation to others? It's a different implementation, according to your words then.
And CS4 DOES NOT WORK with Wine 1.0.1 - it is missing components that CS4 needs to work properly. You sir, are full of shit. Google did not pay for Adobe's product to work either.
You must be confusing Adobe Photoshop with Google Picasa (which Google paid a guy to work on!) which are TOTALLY different products.
You must be confusing the truth with BS!
In my few years experience with Ubuntu and just one year with Fedora, I am definitely sure that things work a hell of a lot more reliable and easier in Fedora. Fedora, like Arch and Ubuntu has its rough edges because of the bleeding edge software but does not fail as consistently and is not put back together with dirty hacks like Ubuntu.
Ubuntu has never, ever, failed me. The entire point of a distribution is taping everything together with scripts and dirty hacks. That's what it's for! At least in Ubuntu stuff actually works!
As far as Wine stable goes - if you turn up in #winehq with a problem you will be told to upgrade to the latest development version because the amount of advancement on the ancient stable version is huge.
Dude I read through the fscking documentation and I am subscibed to the dev mailing list. Don't try to falsely educate me about Wine 'cus I do know a shitload about the project and where it's at right now.
Much more progression than regression. The stable version, in reality, is actually unsupported.
Once again; BS. The stable version has a base of what works and what doesn't, OK? It had so many bugs crushed. There has also been a tiny update to 1.0.x. You see; 1.1.x has more functionality, ofcourse, and most of the time I use it to see where it's at, but it constantly brakes everything that worked before... Wine 1.0.x doesn't have that. It has the most applications that work simultaniously like desired whereas in 1.1.14 A might work and B might not and in 1.1.24 B works better than in 1.0.x but A is broken again.
Yeah on one hand you take away what was once very good evidence (in states/countries with the death penalty it would be nice to be sure the sentenced person actually did it =x ) and on the other hand the government loses some power over the people. I honestly don't know if that is good or bad:/
Kubuntu is the biggest pile of shit ever! Ubuntu's KDE implementation is horribly buggy, and then with that piled on top of Ubuntu's other buggy crap it really is the LAST distro I would use.
There is no such thing as a KDE implementation. You like Debian (everything works) but hate Ubuntu (pile of shit). Wake up call: Ubuntu is Debian.
I quite like Fedora (I used to really hate it, but since F10 it has been really good), Debian (just works!) and I am currently using Arch Linux (I was hesitant because of the whole rolling release thing, but it seems OK so far).
Okey let me get this straight. You hate bleeding edge Debian (Ubuntu) that has been all preconfigured and scripted together, yet you love the most bleeding incompatible, research lab stuff even, Fedora, while Fedora is more buggy then Ubuntu. Hell the policy integration stuff in Fedora 10 and 11 is a nightmare. You do like KDE 'inegration' yet you use DIY Arch. You are absolutely full of shit.
You are also way oversimplifying Wine - I can tell you from a look at the Appdb that the latest photoshop does NOT work out of the box (consistently rated GARBAGE!) except for some Kubuntu user (you?) who rated it Gold.
No that's not me. There is no single mention of the stable Wine (1.0.x) in the CS4 entry of Appdb. So if you just use the stable version, packed with every distro, even Arch, you can just install it and use it. Google paid for it.
This current release is even shittier than Windows XP. Go get a real OS that not only runs on more hardware these days but totally beats the feature set of Windows 7, has high quality applications (AmaroK, Kdenlive, K3B, Vlc and countless others), more eyecandy, better stability and security and even ease of use -> Kubuntu. The latest Adobe Photoshop works completely fine and out-of-the-box with Wine, just like WoW, Steam and Source games. It has a better group chat app than Ventrilo (better sound quality, more features, more speed, less lag and bandwith use) and OpenOffice.org completely support all Microsoft Office files, except for OOXML, but it appears that format got beaten by ODF according to Google's indexing. That's right.
You don't need the commandline anymore. You don't need to compile shit anymore. Adobe flash player 10 64bit works more stable than on Windows and can be installed from the GUI just like any graphics driver.
Everything that makes people go "Wow" at Windows 7 is what made Kubuntu "Wow" from day one. So it's old news. Given the fact that Windows 7 has the same base as Vista and Remond started their photocopiers to copy Mac OS X for Vista, they have done the same copying with Windows 7 but then with Kununtu and if you think I am talking jibberish then try so for yourself and see why. And just like with Vista "The haven't done it quite right."
What are you on about? Task Manager runs as the logged on user, not as admin.
Yeah right. That's why I can kill processes with it...
Try this. From a limited XP user account check that you cannot access the private data of another user (C:\Documents and Settings\\...)
*sigh* It's a root process, but disables that option for users. Hey how hard was that to comprehend? Jesus Christ, if it was a user process then how in hell could I possibly launch stuff as root? Yes some apps will tell you that you need admin rights because it uses a function that allows it to see what rights the account has at install for example.
Windows security is like an unbreakable gate that doesn't let anything into your property, yest for the most part your property is surrounded by 2 feet high bushes. In other words: a total joke.
A patent troll is a person, group or company that has not made an (genuine) invention and has no product and/or service that is based around, or makes use of, the patent and sues others for it.
So Microsoft (sometimes patent troll but not in this case) versus i4i (totally not a patent troll but a genuine patent holder)
I guess I'll have to choose Microsoft and see my Karma go further down the drain...
Hmm. What if someone actually cares about security and didn't give you an admin account on XP? So far you've demonstrated a successful hack against your own PC.
The entire point is obtaining the admin password when logged in as a user *golf clap*.
That is why you have to go to the task manager to launch things (admin process). And that is why you have to install to the Temp folder because as a user you need to be able to write there (apps). *golf clap*
Next time: read first, comment later.
Then when you have the explorer file manager launched (with admin rights; we launched this from the task manager *golf clap*) we can read the encrypter password file.
So what's next? Sueing bus companies for delivering terrorists to certain locations without being able to search all their backgrounds of all the passengers?
"Hey you transported a criminal to a certain location. IT'S YOUR FAULT HE COMMITED A CRIME! You should have played the police for us or face the consequences!
People like this, although I do not even live in Australia, makes we want to form a group of people, buy a shitload of waepons and shoot these idiotic assholes.*
I hope for Intel that Larrabee's power can be fully utilised by OpenCL, because what makes Larrabee so Larrabee is it's specialised instruction set. And who is going to want to code solely for Larrabee if they can code for everything with OpenCL?
1) Ctrl+Alt+Del
2) Execute "explorer" (without the brackets)
3) Now that we run that 'root' (at least in XP rofl) we can see the password file
4) Copy to USB stick, floppy, whatever
5) Now you could go to your home, but Windows needs the Temp folder so you can just install the following there (Oh and if you need to be root then just go to the taskmanager (Ctrl+Alt+Del) and execute);
5) Download a standard CrackT3hW1nd0w5P455w0Rd app
6) Decrypt (yeah I am not kidding it's not even hashed lol xD)
7) Typ in the root password at the login screen
8) Rofl @ Microsoft
But I see that Linux has an exploit. Well it's a bit of a catch22, isn't it? You want to haxxors my Linux, but in order to run the exploit you have to have haxxored into my Linux first. Have a nice day:')
Depends... OpenCL is comming. I don't see Intel getting massive computations done in the timeframe a GPU can do it. The only one having the best OpenCL performance and at the same time the lowest price and power comsumption per TeraFLOP is AMD with both decent CPU's and GPU's. AMD is also the only one to have the/a full flatform for it. Intel and nVidia can forget it.
Everyone likes to think that we're an evolved species interested in knowledge but actually everything is about hierarchies, chimp style.
Yep. That is why we can't let Wikipedia be a Jungle. It would become such a mess filled with crap. Ofcourse it is for the ethical part best that everybody can edit, but what would we get? "Smoking is not bad. Your liver doesn't decay after three months, just like in that movie when that guy eats solely at McDonalds!" ?. Yeah that would suck...
Google doesn't want the competition to get all the good stuff and Linux doesn't want a highly optimised for Google only FS that nobody benefits from, except Google ofcourse.
The only benefit for Google would be upstream support in the Linux kernel, but if they have enough man and money to create their own FS then I guess they don't care about that either...
Unix Distributions, Linux Distributions, and Mac OS usually contain OpenSSL, Windows comes with the Win32 CryptoAPI.
As you should clearly see, my post had nothing to do with DirectX11. I could have said SDL as well. FFS I was trying to explain that in order to take advantage of the CryptoAPI, or any other lib or framework or whatever, you need an application. But no, you didn't RTFA, nor the fscking summary as instead you hate me for debunking your BS and you decided to go through my comments page to react badly to anything I say. You are truly pathetic, you know that. Yet "you can't look at yourself in the mirror", as you or your anonymous coward accomplis put it, by posting with your name.
