    Laser beams attached to their heads? What, do they attack light saber style? And how the hell do they stop the light in mid-[air]/[water]? A laser, i.e. the device would be much more practical to mount on a sharks head, not to mention following through on the canon set by the original meme.

  7. Re:Network Transparency? on Wayland, a New X Server For Linux · · Score: 1

    I think there was a hack that runs the clients to a virtual x server, which then implements the graphics via a hardware backed xserve. The window hierarchy stays connected to the same server, but can switch to running on any network available, x enabled hardware, so it is pretty much the same.

    I like octarin better, though. (Didn't see that one coming, did you?)

  9. Re:Where is Apple using Power chips currently? on Apple Plans To Make Chips For Handhelds · · Score: 1

    Maybe its just the communications bus so it can grab more data? Still, those laptops are really niche, and they would benefit from an at least Apple-sized market share. Tnx for the info! Cheers!

  10. Re:Applications and deeper questions on Memory Molecule Identified · · Score: 1

    Hmmm, both GABAnergic compounds (GHB, ethanol, sleeping pills) and weed block calcium channels, so that would explain the amnesia they create. But why do GABAnergic ones cause retrograde amnesia, while THC et al. fuck up short term memory? BTW, would the recpetors being moved in question happen to be serotonine ones? I really need to get rrid of the downer after taking XTC, GHB covers the dopamine part, but serotonine receptors need to be kept at the surface if I'm gonna roll for a week. Druggie genius over and out.

    I'd KILL for a descent mid-to-low range SPARC laptop. THink 30 W max. Hmmm, would that be a jumbo netbook, or a low power server blade? I guess both. They could even make a console version, with a TOTALY FOSS stack. Nah, Apple wouldn't do that. They do a good industrial design, crap it up with something fashionable (i.e. stupid), charge triple for it, and no way in hell are they opening the graphics stack. Hmm, would somebody call Sun Microsystems? I've got a business proposition. KEKEKEKEKEKEKE

    Business idea: integrate this with a mail server, make a server side app that exports to the propietery Outlook protocol (on two vodkas, cant remember name right now), charge for support. Hmmm, would somebody whine to red hat please? I wanna kill M$es Exchange market, as a favour to the admins out there.

  22. Re:Of course on Ubuntu 8.10 Outperforms Windows Vista · · Score: 1
    Yeah, but I think PC games are still a problem. Though WINE is great and all, running those Win95 apps like nobody's buisness, but it is still kinda spotty on quite a few major games, AFAIK. I think some effort should be put in making a Quartz Compozitor-to-X11-with-xcompmgr bridge. Nothing else. The rest of the quartz stack has been functionally duplicated in FOSS, hell the Cocoa API and XNU ABI have full reimplementations. Its just that damn Quartz stack.

    *sigh* Here I am, a lonely and drunk geek, hugging a pillow, and i am fretting over graphics stacks. Hey, mcgrew, need another kid?

    Not with ramdisk drivers from the embeded version you don't. And a regedit and a hardlink later you can actualy store stuff in your profile! (think floating /home partition on *nix).
