    If you find one that operates within an order of a magnitude of native speed, call Sun and Freescale and tell 'em to start cranking out those RISC netbooks at full blast.

    Can't you swap MSHTML.DLL with a recompiled, renamed Gecko or Webkit? I hear WINE does that.

    I'd sooo love Brussels to do that. Hey, EU guys, I don't care how much you screw Bulgaria economically if you promise to do this one thing. Pretty, please?

    Why don't they write a JavaScript to PostScript compiler? It's not like the JavaScript is supposed to do anything outside the document anyway.

    BTW, my consultant fee will be $15 000. Send the check to my assistant.

    Why should we forbid instances of 12+16? If they understand the possible implications (apparently, you allowed 12+12, remember?), then they should handle emotional damage like they will have to anyway, head on. It's not as if any realistic physical damage is done, and if they can not emotionally protect themselves, AND can't handle it afterwords, well, there is a lesson to be learned.

    No, it isn't. If it is, improve sex ed 'till it is. This is no magic. If you know your shit, you can do it.

    Very insightful post. Mod parent up.

    Agreed. But let's do some nitpicking. Statutory rape is the official name of child molestation. And the line is quite blurred there. Also, constitutionally, incest isn't illegal. If it's by mutual consent, it isn't. The genetic factor is quite pointless, also, there are contraceptives. No, I don't screw my mother or sister, but am opposed to the trampling of the rights of anybody else who might want to for no good reason.

    Agreed. Thanks for the insightful post. But I'd rather society gets rid of the prohibitionistic idiots before they come up with something that can actually abuse the cameras.

    Carbon nanotubes are, and naval reactors are, like, the size of a dustbin. Even shielding isn't that big. Besides, you'll need it anyway, you're in space, remember?

    Dude, any idea if any stable ReiserFS drivers will show up? I've been dying to try, but I'm too spooked for my data. Sorry for the OT post.

  21. Re:What is teh specific issue? on Optimizing Linux Systems For Solid State Disks · · Score: 1

    If you ask me, they should implement a object storage system in RAM, add supper (hyper?) page support down to the swap partition, then optimize it. But, then again, I'm no FS guru either.
