    Except you don't know how many apples you have left, and if you try to take too many, you never get any more apples again, EVER.

    Basically they find matches of the same BITTORRENT files, not the same FILE, and peers and seeds are connected by the hash of the bittorrent file to each other if and only if they match bittorrent hashes.

    tl;dr they connect to each other only by matching bittorrent files using a magic server.

    Call me when I can go from USA to Japan besides by plane.

    No, boat is no longer an option. Unless you want to go by freight boat. Look it up if you don't believe me.

    It's still news because they have the gall to even apply for it. The judges are clearly not on their side, even if the government is.

    Sure! Block just about everything on Slashdot! You can only read the idle pages now because they are not stories.

    Well there's your problem. Overpriced and stupidly slow cards in general. Get a refund. Say it stopped working in your camera.

  19. Re:TFA on How Kernel Hackers Boosted the Speed of Desktop Linux · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Yes, please. More common users would benefit from this greatly. I would love a prompt for user and password while it is booting, because most users do not leave their computer all day, especially laptop and handheld/UMPC users.

    With desktop computers, I really think that the time it takes to boot into Ubuntu, THEN going into a Gnome prompt, THEN loading the services and desktop is a silly idea.

    My question is do you need a Wii for this? I'm guessing yes.

  21. Re:Video driver is Proprietary on Pandora Console Ready For Pre-Orders · · Score: 1

    If you are a developer, you can ask for the source under NDA, if that helps any, if I remember correctly.

  22. Re:What part of this advertisement is news??? on Pandora Console Ready For Pre-Orders · · Score: 1

    This CAN be a console.

    USB Hub + USB controllers + TV-Out = Multiplayer/Singleplayer on TV. If you have something like this: http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-6m-49-en-70-qc4.html the hub may be unnecessary.

    USB hard/flash drives would work too.

    It's not a cell phone. Camera's are overrated.

    But you can run a VNC connection to your computer and use the built in mic to run Skype. Or your favorite VOIP program. There are plenty of other free and open source ones, so you probably don't need the VNC connection.
