This title was great. You could write music for the nice EMU sound chip in the IIGS. I used it when I was in grade school to have a LOT of fun with music. One had to be able to read music, though, to be able to use it.
>How much do you want to bet that >Microsoft won't release enough >information for the samba team to >quickly support the new file system.
A lot, because they NEVER released information about their networking protocol. Samba is a protocol that MS fudges up in almost every release, and is a moving target that was back-engineered for the most part.
A Google search for total bullshit resulted in about 87,000 results, thus proving that using the amount of Google hits to prove just about anything is, well, total bullshit.
I wouldn't quote mackido.com as a relieable source of anything but bullshit and speculations, especially when they are comparing Macs to anything else. Most of their information is either wron or is just pure fantasy.
For example, check out the Emulators article (http://www.mackido.com/Myths/Emulators.html) and others around the site for shaky 'benchmarks' and other bullshit.
The mysterious disappearance of the Viking settlement on Newfie is no mystery at all. In Canada and Minnesota, there was a group of 'native americans' that had red and blond hair, and blue and green eyes, called the hokoham. They lived in neatly walled (and sometimes moated) villages with streets and alleys, farmed in fields, and were a lot more european than most natives. These people probably decided to leave Newfie (which isn't that fertile of an environment) and strike out southwest after either an expedition or conversations with other natives.
This is interesting, but so are the numerous tribes that spoke vulgar latin, hebrew, posessed roman coins, etc. There is one site in northern MN that was a copper mine 4,000 years ago!!! some 500000 tons of copper ore were mined and smelted there, formed into ingots (rectangular with inwardly-curving sides and handles at the 4 corners) called 'deer-hides' and shipped away. Interestingly enough, people in the middle east shaped their copper into identical shaped and even called them 'sheep-hides'.
Face it, we don't knowwho discovered america, but evidence is there that says that the chinese were relative latecomers.
The chinese used, and still do use large, circular (wheel-shaped) stone blocks with a hole drilled in the middle as an anchor. Divers and beachcombers commonly find these object from the coast of Mexico all the way north to Canada, suggesting that the Chinese who came to America weren't small bands of explorers, but large parties. Other evidence includes Chinese documentation of an expedition of 5000+ people led by a monk, and epigraphers make many connections between carvings in China and mezoamerica, especially in jade. In fact, some geologists have asserted that certain pieces of jade found in Mexico could only have been quarried in China.
My question is this: Why in the heck are we still teaching lies to school children?
Does anyone have any doubts as to WHY?

I have this uneasy suspicion that this is directly related to the Dubya-ment's new crackdown on freedo^H^H^H^H^H^H terrorism. Sure I'm paranoid, but the new McCarthyism may be farther-reaching than anyoine thinks.
So if you had AIDS, and this information was taken from your medical files without your knowledge or approval, it would be OK because, to your knowledge, nobody had been locked in jail, harassed, or abused because of this practice? What if you had unpopular political beliefs that were tracked? Would it be okay to be tracked then?
It is people such as yourself who are contributing to the downfall of our society. As long as something doesn't hurt you personally, who gives a fuck?
Damn straight. As more and more spammers choose to forge headers and make use of open relays, there are more people who are going to choose to deny them the fruits of their labor.
Maybe you should choose an isp that isn't spam friendly, you could send e-mail home to mom again.
Anyway, as 2/3 of my own spam comes from Taiwan, China, and Korea (oddly enough I don't get any Japanese spam), and seeing as how I haven't gotten a single legit e-mail from ANY of those countries, I have started blocking all of them.
Have fun in your ghetto internet, east asia! You will soon be all alone unless you straighten up and fly right.
The police here in the US have had and used lasers to disable people for a while.
The 'gun' looks like a handheld spotlight in the million candlepower range. The laser is pointed at somebody's face, and it blinds them with green light. It's probably useful to subdue folks that are unresponsive to pepper spray. Good thing for subduing people who are freaking out on pcp or something like that.
I think that one of the most visible consequences of the utterly stupid laws that pander to media companies is that more and more intelligent people who want to be able to work with technology unfettered will not be able to do so here in the US. Those people will start to move away, and brain drain will escalate to the point that nobody will be left in America who can work any gadget more complicated than the register at McDonalds. The death of free America happened a while ago. The body just isn't cold yet.
I think it's ironic that MS was busy paying off (and making eventual profit with) Apple stocks, their only percieved desktop rival in '97, while all the while, projects like Linux and *BSD were still pretty much in the underground. Now each open source OS destroys Microsoft in any kind of serious computing task.
But Apple went out on a limb with X and I'm glad they did. I do know that as long as we have Jobs, though, we won't see X on Intel. He wants the whole pie.
I have been using GNUStep and WindowMaker for a while now. API-wise, it beats the crap out of either Gnome or KDE, despite it being less mature than either. Other benefits include compatability with Mac OSX (of a fashion) and much, much more rapid application development. I also think objective-c is a cleaner language than C++. Anyway, people wishing to avoid the BEAST may want to consider GNUStep as a viable alternative to all of the other nonsense.
Actually, believe it or not, many public access stations use the Amiga for both video editing and for compositing raster graphics with video. If you have $1500 or $2000 to donate to your local public access, please do so.
It's obvious that all this hubbub is, at the root, about implementing MS's Digital Rights Management OS. I would speculate that MS is considering public-key encrypted documents as a sort of meta-file that could contain other digital datum. It's amazing what dribbles out of Billy's cake-hole sometimes.
"nothing compares to Debian or RedHat as far as package management goes"
I don't think so. Unless you want to warm up to dependancy hell, the *BSD ports collection beats the hell out of other packaging systems. Simple and elegant, and built from source. The way Linux used to be. I don't know about anyone else's experience with ports, but
.configure
make install clean
is beautiful and simple. Much more so than debian or redhat.

2.Those that would like to steal code repackage it and sell it without giving either credit or code back to whence it came.
Duh! That's what the BSD license is for!!!!

Who knows of any companies that import fun Japanese campters and PDAs and stuff like that?
Any hints would be appreciated!

Just got a fat wad of cash in the inbox from Microsoft, or so I heard.

Gus Grissom actually hung a lemon from the orbiter module the morning of the disaster to express his displeasure with the engineering of the craft.
