Anybody notice the irony in having a restrictive terms of use for the liscence? You can't put the liscense on a computer network. How do you follow it if you can't even distribute the liscense?
Apparently, the linux community, in a move to protect their culture, has decided to sue slashdot.org for their use of words such as "linux," "slashdot," and "Andover." No comment on violations of the GPL.
If people cannot use special video drivers, what about using memory modifiers and proxies to help you win a multiplayer game? I haven't seen any large outcry about a proxy for Quake that helps you aim. General purpose memory modifiers also work well for cheating, but those can be compensated for by checking on the other end. I have yet to see a game that has this checking, however.
I opened the new screenshots straight from Microsoft here in a text editor and found "Photoshop 3.0," "File written by Adobe Photoshop 5.0," and "Adobe" in the first few lines. Have they really cleaned up their act? Why don't they distribute the "screenshots" in.PSD format?
"The scientists are perpretrating a myth, and a dangerous one at that." Given you are obviously not a scientist, the statement equally applies to you. We know the brain is a bunch of neurons. You're just afraid to think of yourself in that way. Maybe your mirror neurons have failed to produce logic as a reason for others. Are you saying that I could destroy all of your neurons and you would still feel (religious beliefs of an after life are irrelevant).
From section III of the TOS:
"5. WARNING- You also understand that wusage statistics are not accurate enough for you to determine your own total bandwidth usage, as it does not include the following: e-mail transfer, httpd or ftp downloads from webpage, anonymous FTP downloads, CGI scripts, Real Audio, Real Video, Telnet, and SSH, as well as other items." Check the spelling of usage. Notice how this protects the charges. I've never seen Telnet or SSH take up more than 1 kbps, unless port forwarding is on. Anyhow, how do they calculate bandwith usage? Do they use usage statistics?
In order to truly experience 200 fps, I will be buying a new monitor, getting new eyes transplanted, and another brain dedicated to processing images along with the one I have for reading/.
I normally browse with no cookies set (except slashdot and e-mail) and when I clicked the link, it gave me an "Incorrect Access Permission" page. I personally don't like the idea of forcing people to accept cookies for marketing data.
If you don't want to see the flash presentation, go here. The presentation is just moving text and a hexagon turning red. . . entertaining, while still taking 2 minutes to load.
Hacker News (operated by @stake) had a story on this yesterday. Interesting point: the government will higher criminals, but the security industry won't. Hacker News also points out that the article implies that anyone who has used a handle (Do slashdot IDs count?) must be a gray hat hacker.
Look at the phrase "Has it's monopolistic practices harmed Calif consumers." Notice specifically "it's." "it's" is a contraction for it is, which makes no sense in the sentence. The correct word is "its" which is the possessive form of it. I'm not going to complain about "Calif", although I probably should.
So, you get root on a computer running free veracity. You tell it to update the hash table and the admin is none the wiser. We prefer to call it deleting the log file.
Only problem is that Xenon is not an energy source, and Deep Space 1 doesn't have to stop at traffic lights. Maybe if you kept on accelerating, you would get that mileage on a rocket.
Anybody know what Gateway has to do with anything? Gateway serves newbies, the last people that would change operating systems, even if that change was from a text terminal to a GUI. I followed the news link and all that gave was a list of Gateway related news.
Does this mean that "You've got mail" will become part of live concerts? Can I use my cell phone when I'm "at" the concert? How can I tell if people are actually playing? For all I know it could be a recording. Also, my speakers are not the best for concert quality sound.
I opened up the article and there was the perfect sponsor for such a venture: Sponsored by: Windows 2000. I wonder if that had any association with the article. . .
I know the article says its a port, but is "The rate at which publishers are announcing games for Linux seems to be increasing. " justified? This is just a Windows game put onto Linux hoping for more money.
Slashdot Mirror
Could you tell me the new ad sizes and addresses so I could add them to my proxy filters?

Did the policy say anything about a fine for slashdotting? Will I receive a bill for visiting their site?
You know, Al Gore invented the Shouptronic and George W. Bush can't even pronounce the name.

If you look at the stills page, there are a lot of Gateway boxes and signs in the background. Makes me wonder if and why Gateway would sponsor Frag.

I clicked the vinyl records link when there were 7 comments and the site was already Slashdotted. Is the hard drive vinyl?
Check out the iGeek. It looks like a close copy off the iMac, translucent case and all. Anyone see those phones with a translucent case?
