Another good example is an HTML IRC client that a friend of mine wrote. It worked by having a frame that was always being written to (the main IRC window if you like), and an IRC process on the server. When you typed in what you wanted to say, the script would send your data to the running IRC process. To avoid zombie IRC processes, onUnload spawned a window (a popup too, at that) which closed the process down nicely.
Self-important journalism. Let's take a few examples..
Firstly, they decry the fact that YaST2 doesn't simplify the version numbers. And *then* they get upset that YAST2 does try a simplification using colour. YaST2 says "We're trying our best here, and it seems to work pretty well" where petulant reviewer mumbles something about hating versioning systems on Linux. Frankly, it seems they don't understand the nature of open-source.
Then they complain about a search feature to see which package provides a given library, and tries to convince us that that's only something 'power users' need - personally, it was one of the first things I learned to do with the RPM tool when I installed Linux for the first time - non-standard packages off the net would often complain about missing libraries.
To add to everything else, this article is written by someone who by their own admission hasn't used the tool yet, and is going purely off screenshots. What a retard.
Or rather, lots of people who take no pride in their personal appearence. Don't tar me with the same dysfunctional brush that you tar yourself with please.
You need to be a member to get access to the CVS. The text you posted says it's free to become a member, and the opportunity is open to everyone. Jeez.
Proven? By mathematics? hahahahahahaah hahahahah hahahaha hahahahah. No, wait! hahahahah ahahahahahahahah ahhahahahaha. Ah, sorry, that's all. Wait, there's more! hahahahahaha hahahahahahah hahahahaha hahahahaha hahahahahaha hahahaha.
Perhaps you need to pull your head out of your ass, realise that you're about as far removed as a scientist as is possible, and realise that 'proof' is completely relative, and mathematics isn't quite as cut and dry as you might like to think.
Wired have been running this story for a few days with a slightly more balanced persepctive (read it here), the key quote being:
In a letter dated May 3, MIT attorney Mark Fischer admitted that MIT had used this drawing of "Val" in its grant proposal to the Army. But Kelly says because "MIT reproduced a very small number of copies (approximately 25 copies)," of the document for "educational activities," the school did not violate the Lais' rights.
It does seem that at first, one of the MIT professors said their daughter had drawn it, but, the quote above I think says it all...
It cheapens the domain? How so? By your logic, should we also stop non-registered business from getting a.com domain? Non network-infrastructure companies from getting a.net domain? Are we going to outlaw all vanity domains - give bit.ch, snit.ch, grou.ch and crot.ch back to the Swiss?
Here's the thing: people have been registering the domains they want since before you started using the net, which, from your self-righteous and mostly illogical rant, was probably only a couple of years ago. Shutdown your w4rez'd copy of Windows XP, and back away from Dell keyboard.
Domains are just domains. ICANN has control of the root servers - your trying to tell them how things "should be" with little logical basis for your arguments will get you rightly laughed at.
Raising your kids to not to be stupid helps how exactly when your kid is abducted by someone a lot bigger and stronger than them, perhaps with a weapon?
Are you saying kids have to be doing something stupid to be abducted? I'm sure there are numerous victims of abuse who'd find your suggestion that they only got abused/abducted/whatever because they were raised to be stupid as highly ignorant, misinformed and offensive.
Uh, well actually it is. Try reading the link, retardo. Even if the kidnapper does realise what it is, and tries to take it off (triggering the alarm at the same time, I might add), that leaves the last known position of the kid, having been abducted. That's very very useful information for law-enforcement agencies trying to track the missing child down.
I don't know where you got this statistic, but, let's assume it's true. Your argument is a little like saying:
"90% of car crashes are non-fatal, thus airbags are pointless"
Yes, it's conceivably possible to block off the GPS signal and wait for the battery to die. Assuming your child's abductor knows the child wears it, knows what it is, and knows how the GPS signal can be blocked. Even with these assumptions, it's still then possible to get the last location of the child before the signal went black, and thus probably where they were abducted. Perhaps you think this is useless information?
It's great to see you took the time to read the product description!
Now, while I'm not saying it's not possible to take the device off, if you put a lot of time and energy into it, the device is specifically made to be difficult to take off or cut off. Attempts to do so will trigger the alarm feature.
- Young kids will have trouble letting someone borrow it without parental permission or loosing a hand
- Older kids who try and remove it will find it triggers an alarm to let their parents know. Nice try.
Your last paragraph seems to be a little strange... are you saying that parents should watch their children 24 hours a day? Seems a little unfeasible, I think, but maybe you've figured out a way not to sleep.
Your ignorance is exceeded only by your stupidity. CGI is, and I quote: "A set of rules that describe how a Web Server communicates with another piece of software on the same machine, and how the other piece of software (the 'CGI program') talks to the web server." This also makes PHP use CGI, so your comment is somewhat akin to saying "Windows is dead! Use Windows 2000!" or something equally thoughtless and banal. As far as concerns intuitive, what do you mean? It's easier to learn? Or do you mean you can guess at writing it? Time to find a dictionary, young Jedi. But, assuming you hadn't been talking utter nonsence, a quick look at jobserve, one of the biggest UK jobs sites, shows 812 ASP-related jobs, 351 Perl-related jobs, and 70 PHP-related jobs. So, what *exactly* are you basing your ignorant comments on?
This really depends on the journalist... Vanessa Leggett being a good example of a journalist who had high enough journalistic standards that she went to prison for keeping her mouth shut. Would sir like to try a smaller tar brush?
You have an advantage in that there are less Linux viruses for your users to inflict on the system, and less 'BonzaiCometGators' as well. This situation could well change in the near future though, as viruses like simile are now cross-platform...
Perhaps not such a great idea to trust CNET's reviews of anything... their reviews of anti virus software are notoriously bad, and a cheap facade for blatant plugging of their advertisers.

Nah, you have viruses... Even metamorphic ones at that. See: http://www.virusbtn.com/magazine/archives/200207/e tap.xml

You suggested that young kids could take them off and lend them to their friends. Note also how an alarm is triggered when it's cut.

No, IBM has paid a large amount of money for a substanial and lucrative customer base with which they can further their own consultancy business.
Jokes about porn aside, the thing that'll bring holographic TV and so on to your living room will be the porn industry.
They seem to have been behind most other home-entertainment systems recently, and so, let's hope the porn industry DOES get interested in this.
Could you expect to see them? Well, I mean, I guess everyone has been *REAL* quiet about the Apache and SSH ones on /., right?
Stop being paranoid about alleged M$ bashing.

Surely computer graphics these days are advanced enough to eradicate the need for real filming? Maybe this is all just a giant publicity stunt?
