Hey, I'd forgotten about that! I only wrote it because I found the spec for RealMedia files and I wanted to extract the data streams. It's not a realvideo codec, so it's pretty much useless unless you are integrating it into a player which uses the codecs from Real.
No - Freenet stores data redundantly. The only instance when turning off your node would cause a piece of data to be unfetchable is if yours was the only node with the data within the search radius. This is very, very unlikely except if you inserted data at HTL 0 and nobody requested it, or it just happens that you have the last remaining copy of a piece of unpopular data (also unlikely).
Plus the receptor would be much more expensive. You'd have to make a superheterodine repector with a number of intermediate frequencies, much more than the low-freq converter and the diode you need to make a simple AM radio....
Dude, you are so full of shit. Superhet is nothing special - without it even a HF receiver (receptor?) would be very expensive. The diode in an AM receiver is the "low-frequency converter" - it rectifies the envelope of the carrier. Plus, I don't know if you checked your local radio shack catalogue, but the extra inductors and transistors for an FM receiver won't set you back more than $1.
No matter how advanced a computer is, every computation it can do, can also be done on a Turing machine, only slower.
Unless it's a fast Turing machine.

But they all just go along with what ever the latest government indignity or spy-job is.
The rest of us just go on ignoring whatever fad westminster comes up with. What are they going to do - drive alongside you and peer through the window to make sure your GPS box is on?
Hmm, you're right. Let's see what we can do about that.
I am in England, so I "have" a queen. (Since I don't actually own her I'm putting the word in quotes. "having" a queen seems to be fairly arbitrary).
Since it's arbitrary, I'm going to say I don't have a queen. There you go - elizabeth windsor has nothing more to do with me than george bush. Ah, that feels better!
At any time during the development process [of Debian], there are three branches in the main directory tree - "stable", "testing" and "unstable", the last of which is often referred to as "sid".
AFAIK parts of the front page (ie the list of stories) are generated statically. Since/. has multiple HTTP servers it's possible that you loaded the page from one server on which the new page was present then the next time you got a different server. I don't see why the pages couldn't all be updated simultaneously, though.
On second thoughts, They're Out To Get You. Sorry.

No, that's nothing to do with the big bang - it's just a great way to relax.
Tea is at 4.

Well, I hope someone kiss mints you all the way to southend
Yeah, along with last year's "star of england's cheese festival" footage that should make pretty good viewing.
IT WAS YOU!
That's it, I can't take this any more...
Here I go...

Real men drink asahi, which has no cheese in it at all. Unless you put it there.
BORKBORKBORK.
Ah, go stick your head in a pig.
Unless the Human Genome project re-invented the CD...
Could this be because it's name is sid?
Oh crap, now I'm for it.
Yup, you are alone - katakana are evil, kanji are good... ^^;;
A hard disk is RAM also, unless you store everything on tape... perhaps we should say "CPU-addressable low-latency volatile memory". Hmmm...
How many balls of string would it take to tie up the whole lot?

We can have anti-aliased fonts in a buggy core as opposed to anti-aliased fonts in patches with integration problems...
Not to say that GNOME has bugs, of course.
Not forgetting of course OpenCola - I gotta make me some of that!
