I've enjoyed roboform as it works great (ahem on windows) and has nice encryption. The random password generator and information form auto filler are tools which I use almost every day. I was somewhat perturbed that they didn't support linux but then I found that it will install on wine if you open the installer from an IE browser so their is cross platform compatibility.
Microsoft made 16.37 billion dollars last year selling their server products and bundling everything else. That is a huge chunk of change. They have their finger in every pie and people don't care, they chomp down. Has this guy even looked at the cost of SQL 2008 Enterprise? $25,000 per processor can rake in the cash like none other (than Oracle). When it comes down to business, if MySQL could trade places on who was charging what, they would take it. There is no way Microsoft is giving away the keys to the castle. Too much money involved.
The government needs to make sure that they post actual data in a portable format like XML. The EPA publishes emissions data http://camddataandmaps.epa.gov/gdm/ in portable XML formats for scientist and the public to use the data as they need.
For example, http://www.govtrack.us/ uses publicly published data to deliver a complete service. Having the data available as a feed or a series of published data files instead of some static website enables everyone else to see the details and deliver meaningful content.
They don't make you drive drunk in the game.
They give you a choice.
When you get in the car, the character even says he should get a cab instead, it is hard to drive and the cops are all over you. I thought they did a good job of discouraging you from driving like that.
"Pretty much seamless" is a key phrase here. I installed Ubuntu on a second drive to dual boot. Turns out that Linux and Windows intrepret my SATA and IDE drives differently so when GRUB was installed, IDE drvies were 0-3, then after it booted, SATA was 0-3. Nuked my whole system. All I had to do was change the boot parameters but that is hardly a simple process.
Buyer beware of simplicity. Ubuntu is the easiest thus far but it isn't for the technically inept.
Please give up on your crappy 2.5D desktops. Give me a cube to spin around and I might be excited. Let me make it a dodecahedron and I'll be impressed.
You are asked by a bride... Whoa, whoa buddy. This is slashdot. No one here is ever going to get close to a bride and second, I can't even understand this without a proper car analogy.
I think the CPU costs of redirecting everyone to 128-bit encryption is one reason to leave it defaulting to http. Besides, it is the user's fault for not typing in the address securely.
Or take my approach, tell them the computer is hosed but you'll be glad to take it off their hands because they are going to buy that shiny Mac. Format and install Ubuntu, good to go. How much did that cost? Nuthin.

I got so high in my car last night!

9 feet of vertical leap should be enough for anyone.
get your comm out fast! like fp

'cause I can.
No, there is lots of space dust on the book, as you can see the real title is "To Serve Files Beowulf Clusters"

Better yet, how many library of congresses a month would it cost to do something like that?
As insightful as the parent is, the statement is obviously wrong. The US doesn't even use a liter to hold gas, only gallon jugs. Silly Europeans.

NC State is using the frickin huge antimatter electron beam to create huge frickin sharks to which they will attach aforementioned frickin lazer beam.
So basically instead of being a Zombie and watching TV. Your a zombie that posts to slashdot all day.
They should also make it boot as a virtual machine inside other OS's through some standard.
As much as I hate to admit it, military research and development drives much of what we discover these days. The government pays big $$$ for new toys.
I bet Comcast loves you heptapod. Your are the hamster in their profit machine. More over the air HD for me please.
