I really did try to like Unity and GNOME 3. I gave both of them a chance, and there were certainly some things I liked about them. I could have accepted a lot of the changes they made and both of them, at first, seemed like things I could live with quite happily. But after a while they were just to restrictive and lacked features I'd come to rely on. Now I'm back on Debian with GNOME 2. I don't know what I'll do in the future but I'm considering XFCE, LXDE, and Enlightenment.
I have a Garmin GPSmap 76CSx. Qlandkarte GT is able to talk to it in Linux with no trouble. I can upload maps (Generated from OpenStreetMap and the SRTM topological data) and download tracks and waypoints just fine. Installing proprietary maps requires the Windows software.
Anything in the Etrex or GPSmap lines by Garmin are probably safe. Both are widely available and supported by official and third party mounts and accessories including bicycle mounts. Note that the black and white and colour versions have slightly different shapes and need different mounts.
That's entirely counter to the philosophy of HTML. It's meant to be independent of presentation so it can be presented in different ways. There's good reason for CSS being separate and for this sort of thing being in there.
If you want a way to link to the point where a page break occurs in a particular print copy, I'd suggest adding a elements at the locations of the page breaks like this <a id="page1"/>
Vegastrike is working on it. At the moment it uses the standard jump-point mechanism, but there is an in system FTL drive as well, and they plan to eventually allow for intersystem travel using it. All the systems already have 3d coordinates that are used to generate starfields.
If you write some code in EMACS and compile it with GCC, you are "using" GPL covered works, but the resulting work is not a "derivative" of those works.
If, on the other hand, you take some code from GCC and integrate it into your work, your work now IS a derivative work and so can not be distributed without the permission of the copyright holder (The FSF in the case of GCC) The GPL is that permission, but you have to follow their terms to maintain that permission.
If they were implying that the web is the Internet, I'd agree with out. However, the web is PART of the Internet, and an important part, so the tag seems quite fair. The point of categories like this is to group related articles, they have to cover broader concepts than the articles themselves.
I wasn't trying to say that having your right hand on the wheel was the reason for driving on the left. Just that considering the two ways of driving now, that was the only thing I could think of that really makes a difference.
I'm inclined to think the Brits have the right idea when it comes to cars.
If I take a hand off the wheel to shift gears, mess with the heater, etc. I want my stronger hand to be the one still on the wheel. For most people, that's the right hand so it's best to have the centre console on the left, which means the driver sits on the right, which means the car should be in the left lane.
That was the only practical difference between the two that I could think of besides, "It's what I'm used to."
Calories are metric as well, the energy required to raise the temperature of either 1g (small calorie, cal) or 1kg (large calorie or kilocalorie, kcal) of pure water from 4 Celsius to 5 Celsius. It's equivalent to 4.184 J or 4.184 kJ.
The small calorie was the one used scientifically, until displaced by the Joule. The kilocalorie is the calorie used to list food energy on packaging.
I believe that was "their own" as in they paid for it rather than they built it. I'm sure Halliburton will be paid to buy the things from Samsung though if it makes you feel better.
You will have to pry my wired mouse and keyboard from my cold, dead fingers. No batteries to charge or replace, or in the case of the mouse, add inertia.
So, it's supposed to be a document language and XHTML 2 solves some real world document problems like parallel annotation (Ruby) and improved outlining (The section element).
I was trying to be slightly funny, but I thought I was pointing out a typo. Every other use of first, second, and third party with respect to a commercial product that I can think of has the producer of the first product as the first party, consumer of the product as the second, and everyone else as third parties, though usualy this is only applied to those creating some sort of related product for use with the first. Until now I have never heard "second party" used they way it was used in the post I first replied to.
Gah, Ultima VII was the greatest game ever, RPG or otherwise. Sure each game built on the previous, but it built up a LOT. Just look at Ultima IV, pretty much the first CRPG to have a story that was much more than "Kill the bad guys until you save the world and/or princess". Ultima VI had the first seamless map, everything on one map without transitions, and Ultima VII took that "one big world" to a level that is hard to match more than a deade later.
And let's not forget Ultima Underworld, a game which predates Wolfenstein 3D, yet had better graphics than Doom, AND had was a full CRPG, not just a shooter. Underworld was the forefather of the Lookin Glass FPRPGs like System Shock, Deus Ex, and Theif.
Here's an idea, the problem that always comes up with Wikipedia is it's lack of "Authority". One of the solutions usualy proposed is to use Wikipedia as a resource from which to produce frozen "authoritive" versions.
Perhaps Google could be planning to handle this themselves. They would still have to comply with the FDL, so anyone could take Google's authoritive version. But that would loose some of the authority (Just because they SAY they copied it from Google doesn't mean they didn't change it), and most people would just use the Google version anyways just becaue it's Google's version.
On the down side, it would still be a lot of work to produce something that would be accepted as a "real encyclopedia".
The Canadian Content regulations would be another problem, TechTV has to throw in odd little filler things about famous/rich Canadians and other special content in ad breaks, BBC Canada airs Due South, etc. I'm not sure how BBC World gets though seemingly un Canadian Contentified.
They should at least relax the regulations for specialty channels.
The traditional object of prank at SFU is the VW Beetle. Every year a Beetle ends up in some bizzare position (attached to the Lion's Gate Bridge, Either side of a wall in Stanley Park(appearing to have crashed through it), On a roof, or wherever). At UWO a brick wall appeared accross the bridge which provided the only access to a parking lot ate one campus.
We aslo have to remember that the crackers don't know the difference either. They call themselves "hackers" too. Of course this is because of the media calling them hackers but it still makes things harder.

Depends what you mean by "using"
If you write some code in EMACS and compile it with GCC, you are "using" GPL covered works, but the resulting work is not a "derivative" of those works.
If, on the other hand, you take some code from GCC and integrate it into your work, your work now IS a derivative work and so can not be distributed without the permission of the copyright holder (The FSF in the case of GCC) The GPL is that permission, but you have to follow their terms to maintain that permission.
IANAL etc.

EA bought Maxis 3 years before they released The Sims.

Icewind Dale and Crusader are mouse and keyboard PC games, not console games. It's possible he will be able to keep playing games like that.

There are still Corel and Xara.

Personaly I'd put Ascension ahead of Pagan, if only slightly. Not that taht changes the point about EA ruining Ultima.

2nd party? Wouldn't that be the players?

...I only just bought the first edition a few months ago. ARGH!!!
If using the term hacker incorrectly means getting your e-mail server swamped I think there will be some insentive for thease people to get a clue.
