Don't go down the crater I reckon it's got the martian equivalent of quicksand at the bottom (I also reckon that's what happened to Beagle2), although if NASA could get Opportunity to pop over and take some pics of it sinking that could be worth a laugh....
I brought a SunOS5.6 box to it's knees with the following script called "ps"
#!/bin/bash ps&
Unfortunately this was a config problem. The number of processes allowed per user was the same as the number of processes for the machine (or there was no limit)
I had to phone people up to get them to logout to free up processes so I could kill the chain.
PuTTY rocks! I spent a massive amount of time talking my work place to allow us to use it (it's not supported so they were reluctant). If I had a penny for all those seconds of time I've saved against Boland James "Impart".....
Would ancient computer components still be recognisable after 10,000 years? There have been one or two battery type devices found from ancient Egypt, these were probably used for gold plating, but it just shows that electricity was being used 1000s of years ago, but then "forgotten" about.
What if there was a "revolution" where people thought that civilization/technology/captialism/money/whatever was ruining the race (root of all evil etc) and it was all/half destroyed by some arch villain/bin laden/country? People were saying immediately after 9/11 that this could be the end of civilization, slightly extreme I know, but this upset was cause very few people.
Post apocolypse, what's important to save for prosperity? Probably nothing. The most important thing is where's my next meal coming from. What's to say that there haven't been lots of civs and lots of apocolypses?
I'd be more willing to give $1000 to someone who can develop a free application that mimics Avantgo. (Unfortunately I cannot afford it... so $100 is more likey!)
Anyone else want to throw in a bid? We could get a nice kitty built up;-)
We just need someone to post a link to the .torrent file hint hint ;-)
The only reason a manufacturer will pay a driver developer to writer Linux drivers is if it is financially viable.
How do they know how many people want to (or already do through an unofficial driver) use their product in Linux?
The first thing I did when I got my Highpoint rocket raid controller was to e-mail them and thank them for supporting FreeBSD.
I've got a Gforce3 Ti 500, I thought I'd see if it worked, but it doesn't work at all.
One of those dodgy "Please tell M$ about it" messages....
"pno0001.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

Funny? I was being serious! I really do reckon that it sank in some watery sandpit.
..it landed in a large pit of quicksand and sank.

What about my electric toothbrush!?
Thanks! That's the first time I've actually read a NYT article in the 3 years I've been seen them referred to on slashdot.
Cordless phones (not mobile) cause grief according to my colleagues.
Wait till you start dating...
Obviously running on Linux.....
All the software is available from dextrose
PuTTY.exe = 220k and doesn't need installing.
Cygwin + OpenSSH = ?????k and needs installing.

I refuse to pay through the nose for the highest spec cards. Maybe I'll change my mind when Doom3 comes out.
I've just swapped my old ATI 7200 (76 a couple of years ago) for a GF5200FX (80 a couple of months ago). I'm happy with the new card.

Is there a readily available technical solution for the following?
;-)
20 people connected to a Wireless LAN.
Each person commits 10-20% of their 56k dial-up connection for a server on the network to use.
A program (running on the server) requests portions of "large files" by either:
1) Connecting direct and requesting via ftp/http. ie. 20 requests for 5% using file resuming and then stopping when the amount has been pulled down.
2) Connecting to another server on the web which proxies the data and chops it up for streaming.
Does this kinda setup already exist? If so please cast me an URL
My website already costs me money to run!

Are there any brain enhancing drugs that would improve my chess?
I have been playing on www.redhotpawn.com and I have been getting wiped out by my friends!
