"Using AI to Filter RSS feeds" only scored a 1.4 and is at the bottom of my page. Wouldn't you think those using an AI to filter feeds would be interested in a story about AIs filtering feeds? Seems like an automatic top of list.
You should hide apps instead, then. Apple-H in most apps or hold option and click outside the app. Hidden apps don't show windows, but respond when apple-tabbing. It's also slightly faster b/c there's no animation waiting for it to minimize/maximize.
What's wrong with the registry (that's true of OSes other than Win9x)?
The registry gives you a common API to query configuration settings. On Linux, you write a conf file. Some conf files uses spaces; some, tabs. Some must be compiled or require a PhD in alien vocabulary (sendmail).
If you sit back and say, wow, all my configuration settings should be in something like a database with common APIs, you come up with the registry.
As someone who came from a server system administrator background to learn more about databases and 4GL, etc, I see a lot of system administrator types don't trust databases b/c their unstable, monolithic or magic, but it's time to move beyond fopen() and while() as a key part of every application just to read settings.
As for modifying the registry or any system setting via the command line, if you don't mind what appears to be nonsense, but I believe is the challenge of having all system information presented in a standard way, check out wmic.
Wasn't NETBIOS developed by someone else for IBM & Microsoft's NT partnership and then IBM with Microsoft developed SMB for Lan Manager?
So, not even that, really.;)
Well, if you mean by "fix" an executable that changes a registry key that might have been set a certain way for who knows what applications. Don't think this actually changed any part of Windows.
Microsoft drops the price of xbox. Sony drops the price of playstation. Time passes.
Microsoft drops the price of xbox. Who is going to buy a playstation now, knowing that Sony is likely going to drop the price to meet it? Once Sony does the expected, people who were waiting make the purchase.
And then CPAN needs to install a dozen other components. All that goes well until number 11. At that point, it fails for your platform (if you're not using a one version old version of RedHat on Intel). So you pull down the code by hand and tinker, or go through various versions of the module until you find one that works. Then you force install the module you needed because it won't work with the version of the dependency you had to install.
I could see that the largest reason for the government to patent something would be so they didn't have to pay another party royalties for what they, themselves developed. Imagine if NASA developed something, couldn't patent it, then I patented it, and demanded payment.
Just because there is a patent doesn't mean that royalties will be demanded, but I don't know the practice.
Slashdot Mirror
Does it correctly implement RFC2324 and respond 418 I'm a teapot when asked to brew coffee?
So, uhm, everyone starts with COBOL?
Way better only for Windows guests. Paravirtualization support for Ubuntu with Fusion is amazing.

There already is Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs
If the author is not familiar with current offerings, why should we trust the author to suggest future ones?
Dang, I was nodding agreement with this for the same issue and then I read the response.
AND I AM AN MBA! *sob*

Seriously, a 2 doctor ep with these two would be amazing! What's Tom Baker doing noeadays? Put the three of them in an ep and you've hit gold.

Actually, yeah it is. F2 in Excel does in-place editing, so if you're a heavy Excel user.... Oh, wait, wrong board. :D
You're on slashdot, so either 1) you're too young to grow a beard or 2) you've grown your UNIX beard.
Why are you shaving again?

The Sony PSP can play H.264 movies (albeit chopped down a little). I would call it portable, marketable, and affordable.

Check out xpcreate -- an automated Windows install CD patcher that will let you toss drivers in as well.
Why would you even speak without knowledge? As an Ohio voter (Butler county), my vote was on a punch card.

With an attachment, the Jenny played SMS games. I know, I had one. As far as I know, that was the first.

yay, cpan
Not just products, but mass media as well. Remember how we priased Firefly? Remember how we still praise all 10 episodes?
If this theory holds out, then the Firefly move shouldn't do well, either. darn
Let's start a petition for Microsoft to release the source code to these games now that they've abandoned them!

Get Patrick Stewart to do The Voice and I'll go....hrm, or James Earl Jones. Choices, choices.
Did you try Apples UNIX file system instead of HFS+?
