    So the best solution for very popular sites seems to be go to a subscriber model at least for part of the content.

    Of course that would be difficult to access for most people who don't know how to use Bittorrent clients.. not me and you, but the man in the street.
    I myself put my webcomics on the web. I don't have banners at the present time.

    Thanks for posting, otherwise how would one have heard of your screensaver pack.

    Is there a gentoo ebuild for your pack yet?

  9. Re:The good old days... on Free Pascal 2.0 Released · · Score: 1

    A number of applications these days are written in Pascal. They include custom applications and special purpose applications. Some utilities and programs you can download from the Internet were written in Delphi (Pascal) too. So no, it isn't a vanity project at all.

  10. Re:To fix Google dramatically, STOP ALL SPAMDEXING on Cracking the Google Code... Under the GoogleScope · · Score: 1

    If all sites were limited to ONE page only of any domain it would not be a search engine. It would be a joke. I know local sites which call themselves search engines when they are a directory instead.

    Google is not that kind of site. It is a search service and to be useful it must search a large number of pages from every site. But there is a limit to the number, I believe.

  11. Paul Gadzikowski's cartoon on this subject... on Trek Producers Will Provide World A Break · · Score: 1

    Dailies from 2/3/05

    The above's a nice cartoon with Captain Archer on the left talking to the new 9th Doctor (from the new Dr Who series by the BBC). The sixth episode of the new series featuring the Daleks was broadcast in the UK yesterday.

    Here's my transcript from the cartoon:
    Archer: ENTERPRISE is canceled as of its season finale in May.
    Doctor: I heard. It's interesting DOCTOR WHO was canceled about the time when the NEXT GENERATION came on.
    Doctor: Now WHO is going to be back again and TREK is going to be gone again.
    (Silence)
    Archer: This is all your fault.
    Doctor: Oh please. Cancellation after a season on Friday night is historically the best thing that can happen to a STAR TREK.

  12. Re:Bad Wolf... on Daleks Return to Dr Who · · Score: 1

    I hope he gets retrogenerated back into his fifth regeneration and we can get Peter Davison back, only somewhat older, of course! I can hope, can't I?

  13. Re:Hands off! on Daleks Return to Dr Who · · Score: 1

    I'm in a commonwealth nation too. And I agree the british should insist that other tv stations in other countries show the new show!!!!!

  14. Re:sign of weakness on Daleks Return to Dr Who · · Score: 1

    I just hope it gets shown on maltese or italian tv too or any fta station on satellite or even BBC PRIME (which has said it will not be showing any DR WHO) hopefully.. though I will be getting the DVD box sets.

  16. Re:One Less to Cut? on Culprit of Leaked Doctor Who Episode Found · · Score: 1

    Will BBC Prime be showing the new Doctor Who?

    Because I can get that here in Europe on satellite.
    They haven't even showed Dr Who reruns for some time now.

  19. Re:Live365.com is legal netcasting on Internet Broadcasting Makes A Comeback · · Score: 1

    As a netcaster for me it is great that you don't have to dedicate a PC, or its bandwidth, for the task.

  20. Live365.com is legal netcasting on Internet Broadcasting Makes A Comeback · · Score: 2, Informative

    Live365 has made a difference because it's legal to broadcast music, so no problems on that end. They handle the licensing for your netcast. I have two stations using live365.

  21. Re:The Politics of Enterprise on UPN Officially Cancels 'Star Trek: Enterprise' · · Score: 1

    Actually even the original series (TOS) had stories which commented on politics and culture, and I don't see that as being wrong. You might not agree with everything of course. But it could spark off some interesting discussions.

  22. Doctor Who will be on air and Trek wont be on A Brief History of Programming Languages? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    So now in a few months, Doctor Who will be on air (the new series), while Star Trek won't be.

    It used to be the other way round after Doctor Who was cancelled. Trek will come back, and it will be better, I hope.

  23. Re:Inept broadcaster and bad PLOTS killed Enterpri on UPN Officially Cancels 'Star Trek: Enterprise' · · Score: 1

    I haven't seen Enterprise yet on an tv station I can get. I did see two episodes on a station once, but they didn't keep showing it...

  24. Re:Hope again on 4 Linux Distros Compared To Win XP, Mac OS X · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Make two distributions then with a common base perhaps? The base distribution being a normal one for those who are "advanced" users, and the extended one with lots of dumbed down explanations and extra guiding GUI stuff for grandmas... and everyone can be happy.

  25. Re:How's this different from Live365? on PC Mag Reviews Mercora P2P Radio · · Score: 1

    Also Live365 is legally licensed, so your broadcast is covered by them (it is not free however), unlike with Mercora P2P which isn't. Mercora would only be legal if you owned the broadcasting rights to the mp3's i.e. you made them or you have all the necessary rights (probably expensive).
