Man, the old Apogee games were fun. A company that started out on shareware, bases its only success on word of mouth and getting passed around in BBS's, one of the many homes of free speech, smacking down on the free speaking public. Nice to know that you care so much about your users. I really liked playing commander keen, but the graphics weren't as good as Quake III's. Am I bashing your company? I hate UCITA. Thanks for selling out.
Gnutella brings an interesting thought to our Internet, and it is an old one. It is an ever present, self expanding, responsive, searchable file system. You don't register with the search engine, you become a part of it. With the advent of major web page trafic, we got away from this very important concept. I large on the fly networked filesystem and expanding network connections are what the world really needs in order to move forward. As for search time, that is necessary in such a paradigm, since the responsiveness of searches is not a function of the algorithm running a localized database, but of the responsiveness of network nodes. IE, this is the good stuff that we left long agon in search of "user friendliness." It turns out that it is more useful, quicker, and friendlier! This is what we haven't been waiting for, but put on the back burner for a bit, in order to turn a profit. If you think about it though, with the right protocols to initiate such a turn in industry, this could be even more profitable than the web....And maybe we could get away from identifying ourselves by someone else's product (URLs).
You can look through a window that you are typing in and see another window. I actually find that useful. Try looking at spec file while typing the implementation! It's great! If you have to implement more than one header/package body, you can stack each implementation over it's own spec! That way, you can see each spec and implementation out at once.
NOTE: This requires a good deal of "human multitasking" capability on the part of the user, and pretty darn good eyesight.
Hook em up with DJGPP under windows, and set them up a linux partition. Get them hot for Linux, teach them about sysadmining. Help them hook up a webserver/irc server and such! They'll eat it up and be kernel hackers in no time. Hook em up with some 3D programming libs under linux. They'll take a shining to the sheer programmability of *nixes over windows. Have a blast!
Isn't this like them also blocking trade from us? What gives? We have to take their crappy communist products, that we don't buy because their ideals are different. They just block us out and don't take ours? Sounds great to me.
You are suggesting, a solution, that potentially 100 times as much as the soltion offered. The solution was for line failover, which, albiet, isn't terribly useful. You're suggesting a solution for the failure of the machine. A couple dual port nics cost a lot less than a quad PIII xeon, or whatever kinda server they are running. I am assuming that it's huge. I am also under the assumtion, that they probably don't want to replace whatever it is with a 486. Crucify me, but business types aren't likely to say, hrmm, the backup doesn't have to actually be a superpowerful machine. Also, I would assume that, probably, they are making an attempt at bandwidth, probably trying to avert going to a fiber optic line. Maybe they are distributing the bandwidth in some other way, maybe they are using several lines. Maybe they have no clue what they are doing. No offense, but you answered a question under the assumption that that was what was being asked. He wants this hardware, and for all I know, he wants to connect to 4 fiber optic lines coming in from separate cities. Why? I don't know! But the nature of the beast could be completely different from the angle which it has been attacked.
On that note, my stomache is growling, and I should grab some lunch. Wish I had one of those puppies in my office, programmed to whip up a few of those extreme double cheeseburgers from burger king.... MMMMMM>
Interesting article, but there are other cell phones that do this.
Now all you have to do is put an ftp/webserver or napster on the phone... and listen happily until Metallica/Dr Dre/RIAA sues your ass into the ground, and all other people who own cell phones.
The gnutella guys could even get a bad rap from the media for using the lcd on their phones to look at kitty porn;-)
That wasn't aimed at Hemos, it was aimed at the person who cut on Hemos and myself. Moderators should follow the damned threads and read what they are moderating before assuming that I'm making a crack at someone. Particularly if it says... ironically enough "Re:"
One of my teachers works at their Independant Verification and Validation facility. Several other do or have worked for them on some level. They are VERY good programmers. Several of my school projects are based on things that NASA has been doing.
I find it funny to hear people talk about very BASIC things in computer science as being "cumbersome" and such. Like much of what was said about Ada.
One should strive to do good computer science, not whine about it. Less bugs, and better performance should be a way of life. Good code should be the only kind that you make.
Otherwise you might as well point and click your programs together...
I was referring to the speed/price of the actual processor. And yes, there ARE webpads... There are also hacks for them to make them into PCs. Where have you been?
BSD comes from a free release of SysV. BSD is what one would call, the real deal UNIX.
Well, of course my corpse will send a FIN (to the Matrix of course), but ACK is the noise that I am going to make!
I liked the use of the internal speaker in Ken's Labyrnth. There's just something about playing recorded sound over the internal speaker...
ACK
Additionally, we were shown the herpes virus in 3D, which brought up another major use for this monitor.
...rather, we were thinking, "I can't wait to start my 3D porn collection, this is gonna be so cool!"
And that would not be that...
The medical community could easily implement this into various aspects of training and detection of diseases in patients.
That's right...
I kinda thought that that line from Lo Wang was funny... Which engine was that just like? Blood or Duke?

A dedicated, hard, well mirrored network, set up for external access, would alleviate these problems.

Multiply $73K X 4 is what he was getting at.
I was surprised at the cost. $73k for a system like that is very reasonable.
Makes sense.

Could somebody elaborate on this?
