just because there's a socket doesn't mean it's actually plugged into anything at the other end.
lots of places have sockets, put they still have to be patched into the switch/hub before they DO anything...
it's based on the realization that you don't know where you will want a computer 5 years down the road, so you make it easy to hook them up later anywhere and everywhere.
cbc news, and a few of their programs put every detail of what they do on the website. All the rest of the programs don't. So all that really means is that this interview was on one of the MANY programs that don't
yes, but this exam is presumably going have a good deal on it about those tools. I doubt the exam has much relevance for the system I made a while back that doesn't even have ls (I had my reasons, don't ask) I think that's all he's trying to say...
apt 0.5 (the one in testing and unstable) has very powerful support for using sources of multiple trees at the same time. you can set a default distro to get packages from, and then override it at the command line when you want to (such as when installing kde) It also remembers which packages are which distro for when you update... so just switch long enough to upgrade your APT, and then have a blast...:)

a)it even says that right in the article.
b)I'm not aware of any manned space programs that have done more on their first launch...why should these guys be any different? They have a fraction of the budget, so they should accomplish far MORE? what?
simply put: the Canadian government tends to be quite happy to tag along after the US in financial & business matters... Certainly there are some notable exceptions, but...
I don't think this is such an invalid question, really (and yes I am Canadian)
I mean, the way I read the report's definition of community, any cluster of a couple of igloos up on one some island up north that has a name *MUST* have enough bandwidth to it to provide Syncronous 1.5mbit to each of the igloos...
hard to be sure, but wouldn't just being able to move your personel around fast be an asset in some situations...I mean, for example...suddenly you realise that your sniper needs to be 2km that way NOW... a car isn't practical (he was delivered by helicopter) So he jumps on this thing & flies over there...
the authors of the software in question CHOSE to release their software under a license which allows apple's actions.
when they made that choice, they knew that it would allow people to do this.
So where exactly is the problem? maybe you have an issue with the authors of the software because they use the BSD license or whatever, but THAT IS THE AUTHOR'S choice.
I really don't see that APPLE has done anything wrong here
to the contrary, the lone gunmen premiere has been on the net for at least a month, I think more like 2. You just have to know where to look...

no fud, just unclear terminology, it is in fact true that gimp only supports 8-bit....PER CHANNEL
and some really high quality things, I don't know about film, but I wouldn't be supprised, are done at 16bit per channel
even a wireframe can be helped by a 3d card if it's complex enough, And that's without even getting into flat shading, which can actually be very intensive if your scene is complex enough
(and photorealisitic is generally complex...) So I would say there is a lot of use for game-style 3d rendering on the design side of Houdini and friends.
Lets also not forget that your "high-framerate polygons" are EXACTLY what I want when I'm previewing ANIMATION, otherwise I won't get much idea of what I've just done, will I?
come on! he has NO interest in upgrading his box, doesn't want to spend the money, which is FINE since he can do all his basic webbrowsing, wordprocessing & e-mail on it, which is all he does
but I don't even want to THINK about what netscape 6 would be like on there, I mean...it takes a long time sometimes on my PIII-500!
They say that it could hold 10.4 terrabytes. They then say that it could revolutionize all this small stuff... True, but...10.4 terrabytes... wouldn't that revolutionize FULL SIZE stuff as well?
what isn't being mentioned here?
incredibly slow i/o speeds or something?

have you actually tried it?

not really very "interesting" at all.
I can only imagine that a contract of this size would involve enough money they can probably hire some more people if they need to...
if you have linux or WinNT on both ends, you can use cipe

Disclaimer: I've never used the windows version, so I can't really speark for it.
So it takes pictures when it senses a happy mood...
what about when you're having sex in the back seat!?
there are lots of gate teams (they add some every so often, so I'm not sure of the exact count) I think it's about 12 at the moment.
SG-1 is an advance scout team...
SG-9 (I think) is the diplomatic team
etc, etc...

a lot of harddrive manufacturers label this way.
the 60 is the maximum size in the given line.

so is there some good reason that everyone on slashdot HAS to have the exact same opinion on everything?
"well accepted by historians" well then!
could we possibly see some sort of references or something for this? Maybe it's common knowledge, but I've certainly never heard it before!

1)get sued for something really retarded & loose
2)sue these guys (and maybe the Mcdonalds-coffee-too-hot people) for setting the precedent
Last time I checked, CBC was the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, owned by the government!
sorta....
you don't really fly, per say...just kinda spin & stuff...
still, it looks kinda cool

Netscape 6 on my dad's p100 with 16 meg of ram
