A better question is what would anyone do with Corel? They don't have any software products making money. They don't have a call center pulling in money for support. They sold the Netwinder dog. They haven't had a new office program since 1996.
So they couldn't convince a real woman to star as the a heroine in a movie so they synthesize one with computers and get men to act the movements. It reminds me of Elizabeth dole a little bit.
I nearly got booted out of the last career fair for using the L word and now they're talking not just L**** but Abiword as acceptable language around employers?
and not betting the entire company on this one until it starts getting some revenue. Only then, if they're convinced that it's working, they'll finish OpenGL and port Linux to it. Otherwise they'll just unload it for a stake in Hardware Canada Computing.
And Linux 2.0 was a dog compared to Linux 2.2 in terms of speed. My personal Linux box is the fastest web server in all of central Florida even though the suits will never ever hire a non-Windows user here.
Read the PPPD manpage. Try every single flag until one works. For me it was -am. Also try logging in manually through minicom. Take a look at my PPP page: heroine.tampa.fl.us/ppp.html
That makes sense. Customers refused the license agreement so they shipped back the OS without shipping back the hardware. Microsoft's solution: make usage of all computing hardware contingent on using Windows. Is it still okay to use the bathroom if I don't use Windows?
Is sengan going to grad school already?

AAAS under way
·
· Score: 1
I thought the AAAS only came up in your life when you were going to grad school. Aren't the rejected grant proposals more interesting than the stuff that actually gets done? The fact that everyone and their kid brother wants to star in Patch Adams, Virus, LA doctors, ER, and Hot Zone while Adventures in Perl isn't exactly a blockbuster smash is one reason I'm counting technical specialization on not life science specialization for income. By the way, it's reduced calorie intake that extends life, not reduced food intake.
Exactly what is the bank going to do if their customers spend all of their student loans on open source projects? Do banks accept intellectual property as repayment for loans or is that still going to take selling T-shirts by day?
The modular sound driver loaded properly, but always played buffers out of order. ALSA broke completely and now this is the way it's going to be. Luckily there's the commercial driver.
It's about time they dumped that thing. Microsoft did the same thing with Softimage but Softimage remained viable with Avid while HCC isn't exactly going to go global with Netwinders.
Yeah, it looked like opening up Mozilla didn't change the world like Mark Andreesen thought it would a year ago. They actually planned to have a beta release out in August 1998, believe it or not. 2/3rds of the CVS users being netscape employees isn't the picture Mark advertized in 1998 either, even with the hypothetical "patches" JWZ hints at. He just brushes aside any questions about the success of opening the code. If I lead a phenomenally successful open source project I would brag and brag about how much the model has improved my efficiency and at least give the number of emails from coders I get in a day, but JWZ treats the subject like a threat.
Even then, as the leader of the Mozilla project, working for Netscape for years, he knows awfully little about the company. Like whether Netscape sees any benefit to opening up its other programs, how many patches are coming from volunteers, or how much the open source model has benifited Mozilla. Has he not been leading an open source project for a year? Is it that hard to count the number of emails you get in a day? Or what about the number of code contributions a development team recieves when you've been working with the people for 4 years? Does he at least know where the bathroom is at Netscape?
Volunteering works for small projects when the coding is still fun. Mega projects like Mozilla aren't fun to volunteer for. After getting the same question asked twice and evading it, JWZ finally ends the interview with, "Please contribute! Mozilla is a very large project, and it takes some time to understand, but we could really use all the help we can get."
So I guess it isn't exactly to the point of Linus writing a patch manager to handle an overload of patches, but JWZ wouldn't know if his team was using a patch manager anyways.
Everytime the RIAA does that, their favorite reason is that without profit incentive, musicians won't be willing to make recordings.
Damnit, I'm going to quit playing right now. I just can't stand all of my multi million dollar CD's getting pirated!!! I'm losing millions of dollars here by pirates!!!!!
In fact not only am I going to quit making CD's, I'm going to quit even listening to music!!!
Like are there any musicians who actually don't lose millions of dollars in CD sales because their lyrics are getting pirated?!?!?!?!
If it wasn't for guys like this, there wouldn't be a Slashdot. If only TV could be as nihilistic. The urge to rant while in college is a direct result of our confinement while in college.
First midi was exported from software to hardware, then 3D graphics were exported to hardware, then device dependant drivers were exported from the OS to the hardware. Now encryption is exported from software to the hardware. What does it mean for the future of the programmer?
I can't imagine still using Slakware. I started on it years ago and converted to Debian when libc6 came out. After using Debian as a crutch to become familiar with the proper file heirarchy, I now use it to initialize the base system and install most things by hand. Now the libc5 system looks like pre-Win95 technology. There are actually people in this world who think Slakware is completely compatible with modern programs and runs exactly as fast as kernel 2.2.
I was working with a business guy, just starting out in a mom and pop business. The business guy didn't know a single thing about UNIX. One day I typed swapon -a on the firewall, a firewall which I had set up and even paid for from the ground up to masquerade the office onto an IP address on the saturated T1. The T1 averaged 900 bytes/sec during business hours.
The point is, I routinely turned on and off swap space by hand, a technique that improved performance immensely on Linux 2.0.34.
At that point, whatever the business guy was downloading happened to drop to 900 bytes/sec and he happened to have a view of/var/log/messages on his screen which said
Adding Swap: 64256k swap-space (priority -2)
Then boom, "WHAT THE FSCK ARE YOU DOING!!!!@#!@#! YOU RUINED MY DOWNLOAD!!!!@#!#@%%$ WHATEVER YOU DID KILLED THE NETWORK CONNECTION!@!#!@#!@#@#! NEVER EVER DO THAT!!@#!@#***"
Well that guy moved on to manage some accounting firm's networking staff while working on his MBA. The moral is even if you're paying for part of the business, business people are going to do what they're best at.
Slashdot Mirror
Since it broke every single binary on my system and I had to revert back to glibc-2.0.7 let's hope they keep it locked up until it really works.

Downloading at 400k/sec is a religious experience. If only people besides universities could hook up.

Guess RMS got flamed pretty hard after that Lesser GPL quip.

Women may outnumber men for email but 99% of my website hits are men. I say men own port 80 while women hang around port 25.
Purgery or not, all my friends are using Win.

At this rate they might actually be able to pay for that deap crack machine one day.
