SCO, err Tarantella has a new product called, surprisingly enough, tarantella. It's basically a web app that allows different platforms to run applications through it.
My wife is a salesperson at worknet, a dirt-cheap alternative to land-lines. She spent a week trying to get a booth at the fest but the guy in charge of booth rental didn't return phone calls, when he did he didn't have any useful information. She was unable to ever get a booth.
I know there is a huge following here in KC for Linux, I just don't think anyone knew about the event.
It was poorly marketed, mismanaged, and was generally a first class kluge. They need to take the people responsible for the thing out and thoroughly beaten with a large blunt object.

I did get a cool squishy ball though. la-dee-fricken-da
Sorry, I just think it's kinda funny that so many slashdotters claim to be libertarian and then turn around and expect the govt. to break up MS. Personally, I would rather see the market punish MS. Move from MS products to quality products. MS will either be forced to change to what the market wants (instead of what MS wants), or they will die out.

Am I the only one that thinks televising your life for all the world to see is serious screwed up? This girl obviously has some serious self-esteem issues.
Let's not prosecute or even investigate internet attacks, we might find out that China is the one committing the crimes. We wouldn't want anyone to limit Clinton's second income. Of course we do need at least a billion more gun laws that don't do anything.
We tell the world about our faith because we were commanded to by our savior. "Therefor go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the son and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you..." We also tell people because we are genuinely concerned about people's salvation. I personally would feel horrible if someone I knew died and I did nothing to tell them about Christ and the joy and peace that he provides. Not preaching, just replying.
I guess I don't get it. I really couldn't read any further than the dictionary references, (which, by the way, my first year writing teacher in high school taught us not to do.) Why do so many people still live in highschool when they are 20+ years old. Who cares about being popular anymore? High School sucked. Everyone (or at least most of us) agrees on that. But since we can't go back in time, and we really can't change the fact that mankind is just evil, doesn't it make sense to let it go? I know it's not as easy as that, but find a counselor, priest, pastor, friend, whatever and work through it. Popularity, sports, school, your job, the past. None of it matters. Instead of spending so much energy focusing on the little things that don't matter, we need to focus on the really big things that do matter.

There is a demo here
It's pretty cool, but it's dirt slow.
They've got it set up so you can run Word or Powerpoint, a few unix apps, etc. all on your web browser.

Hemos just a bit of a lissssssp.

Unfortunately, there isn't enough RAM to hold any time conversion routines so it just spits out seconds since the Epoch.
What time is it?

I thought Arnold was the T1000 and the T2000 was the Mercury guy.
Actually, Arnold would be pretty cool as Mulder.

You can also use the following.
use constant FOO => 1;
I believe the following also works. Check out "Advanced perl Programming" from the only Publisher out there for more info.
*PI = \3.1415927;
I've had probs with the last though.

Hey, if people want to blow their money by being prime examples of Pavlov's Dog, more power to them.
The Man's making his money off the gambling rings anyway. He just needs to shut up, sit down and watch the Mathematically deficient blow their money.
As a quote said somewhere "Gambling is a tax on those with poor Math skills."
The only reason I could possibly see the Gov't not wanting Internet gambling is if they are unable to tax it.

I just checked it out. In the process my retina's exploded from way TOO much green.
Ceeripes that was loud
How about a waffle made out of lego.
Now you can say
"My Eggo is Lego" or
"Leggo my Lego Eggo"
I want to build a lifesize model of planet earth.
Kinda reminds me of the Pinky &Brain episode where Brain makes an exact duplicate of earth out of paper mache.
Free T-Shirt anyone?
Considering the cost of living in Canada, now MS employees will be on par with everyone else. IS
If you aren't willing to take responsibility for what you do or say, you shouldn't do or say it.
If we aren't willing to take responsibility for our actions/statements do we deserve the responsibility that the Internet requires?
Is there a module at CPAN yet? :)

I would much rather see Spielberg (sp?) direct one of the lost Ed Wood films. Like a sequel to "Plan 9".
