When 2002 comes, and Windows 98 is obsolete, how will Bill Gates prevent me from using it or programming for it? Will MSDN suddenly disappear? Will my SDK cds melt? When my computer stops doing what I tell it to do, I'll go and get a new one. Notice the GPL doesn't fit anywhere here.
See, before this morning, I would have derided you as a complete moron. But here I am, writing MFC code trying to do something as simple as providing multiple extension filters for an SDI app, and MFC doesn't let you do it! You can't derive from existing classes to do it, you have to cut and paste and point to your own stuff... Ridiculous
Since you've clearly already 'been there, done that', have you heard of anything that sounds even remotely better (whether you've had a chance to check out yet or not)?
There was an article about this in Scientific American, but I can't find the link. Do yourself a favor and find it, without pictures, articles discussing the technique are useless. (eg, look at the shiny pretty sword)
and what happens to that poor guy who agreed to be his custodian?
Slow down cowboy!
Slashdot requires you to wait 20 seconds between hitting reply on comments.pl and submitting a comment.
It's been 15 seconds since you hit 'reply'!
Explain CIFS, Samba, SMB, and how these things relate to each other and why Microsoft blocking them would be a bad thing and why you couldn't work around if they did and what would this affect people who don't bother to upgrade from their current NT/2k boxes to XP?
Everyone here wants to find the book of the dead or the decss source code or the max payne iso by getting a formula for pi digis and the offset, but don't you also need the length of the content? Or is that not necessary?
Basically the Egyptian government is worried that if someone somewhere can prove without a doubt that the Jews (slaves in Egypt waaaaaay back when) built the pyramids, then there's gonna be hell to pay when Israel wants to take back the pyramids that their blood built. In today's politically correct climate, they'd have a decent legal shot at it too. So they fund experiments like this to prove that their ancestors were much smarter and greater than we give them credit for.
Even though you and I know that the easiest way to build pyramids would be to use slaves, for all we know aliens could have erected them as landing points for giant starships.
So, anyone can calculate nth digit right? nth digit doesn't require n-1 digits, right? Am I the only one thinking "THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT DISTRIBUTED CLIENT!!!"?

Um, check with WASP. IE for Mac fully supports CSS 1 and HTML. Since you don't believe me, here.
I thought linux prided itself on doing more with less? Doesn't that make this a valid test?
Of course a more valid test would have been to compare the results on a 'ridiculously outdated machine' and on a high end top of the line mofo.
"I prefer knoqueror, although recent builds seem to have random hangs on images.google.com."
I have no say in the matter, but I bet more people prefer konqueror than knoqueror...
Bill Gates has decided that Windows 98 is obsolete to Windows SE and Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
:)
Funny, I'm still using it. And programming for it
and once again I'm schooled by my roommate. Today's lesson: never ever listen to a word I say, I have no idea what I'm talking about.

If I'm a BeOS user who's gonna be really irate if Palm doesn't continue BeOS development, how many people are with me? Anyone?
Windows Forms? Or perhaps you would prefer Delphi's VCL?

Does anyone know what John Carmack thinks of this whole deal? Thanks in advance

God forbid people type fast.
That means nothing. I said that I would love to see his breakdown. He still hasn't presented his breakdown. Thanks for your useless assumption though.

I think he said it was the first 3d game that did 3d well on a home PC, not the first 3d thingee ever...
Spectre was fun.
that was disturbing. I wonder if Milgram expected the best or the worst while conducting his study?
"you get a figure less than 0.2%"
I'd love to see this breakdown of yours.
As long as we have Microsoft, there will never be an end to innovation :)
interesting, thanks ^^v

I post to slashdot in order to have your advice.

I find it highly amusing as an American that I can sometimes get better local news on BBC's site than I can at CNN's. Ridiculous.
