So far about every episode of voyager and DS9 has made me want to punch myself in the testicles until I pass out. Short of Scott Bakula in the lead role (which will be interesting, if nothing else) this new Star Trek series will undoubtadley carry the time honored torch of crappieness. Urge to punch...rising...
What I don't get is why Berlin dosen't have some kind of X compatability layer. I'd definatley use it if I could run X apps on it, but for the time being it seems stifeled as just another academic exersize.
Just listen to the high quality of this mp3. Can you believe this is self produced? Its amazing what you can do with computers these days. I envision that the corporate entity of music that we know today will eventually be replaced with a culture built off of self expression rather than making money. For a couple more of this artist's mp3's check here and here.
If the government really does intend to outlaw encryption, the point isn't going to be to stop people from using it. Rather it will be used as an incentive to obtain search warrents, do keystroke-logging wiretaps and probably just add more jailtime to criminals. While I doubt that mesures such as this would cause the govenrment to start cracking down on Joe Encryption-User, it would definatly hinder the development of future encryption technologies.
Seriously, I think that Outlook and Netscape (and perhaps newer versions of Eudora) include funcitonality to filter messages not specifically sent to the recipient. If this is a problem, one should be able to just contact thier ISP and ask them to setup a.procmailrc filter. At the ISP I work at, we have set up a simple web-based filter to allow the customer to do this.
Its already is unbelievalby easy to filter out spam. As most spam contains a forged To: header in the message, simply add a line like this to your.procmailrc:
:0
* !^To:.your@e-mail.address.com /dev/null
Hooray. No more spam. I hate spam as much as the next guy, but I really think that it is just the result of a larger issue with misconfigured mail servers and generally stupid users. If you don't want spam, simply don't leave your e-mail address laying around on alt.sex.midget, and take a few preventative measures.
AFAIK 4dwm (I think that's what its called) is still based off of Motif, which is slowly dying. Given that, coupled with the fact that SGI itself is slowly dying (and has been "embracing linux" in the process) I would be at all suprised if they switched to Gnome/KDE/Something else very soon.
My dad used to work for UPS, for a total of 10 days. Things may have changed since, but he says that basically your foreman yelled at you to 'go faster, damnit' pretty much through the whole 8 hour shift. If you didn't pack fast enough, you got fired. He finally got sick of it and simply walked off of the job, leaving the foreman, whose face was red with high blood pressure, and voice was horse from constantly screaming, to do the rest of his loading work. My father was all of 18 years old at the time, with a newborn baby (me) and a wife to support, in a recession economy and he STILL walked off the job. If they still treat thier workers like that, its no wonder that your packages arrive mangled and beaten.
I have a 233mhz Alphastation that I got for around 200 bucks. It's not incredably fast; it about keeps pace with my pentium 150 and currenlty runs OpenBSD (which crashes constantly, now that slackware is out for Alpha I'll switch as soon as I can.) I've also seen 400-533mhz alphas and alpha motherboards on ebay for as little as $500.
Actually, I think that the design work that Giger had done was actually for a different Dune movie that never quite got off the ground. There was even a story here on slashdot about the whole thing a while back...
Just how the hell is that flamebait? Its a fact that George W. has taken a dive in the polls the last two months. I'd hardly consider an observation of that as flamebait.

After seeing the movie, I don't believe that more than 30 minutes was spent on the writing process.
Speaking of which, its considered bad programming style to cast the return value of malloc().
Commander comedy there was attempting to make a joke by replacing 'Dune' with 'Doom'. He wasn't talking about the old Dune PC games.
Yeah, JeffK 0wns the www.

This is teh funney.

Take a look at this. VA's stock price seems to very closly follow that of Redhat's.
Most art really boils down to self-expression, so if you write code to express yourself, then you are an artist.
Really? I got into programming for one thing: THE WOMEN!!

If this isn't a hoax it will be interesting to see if it will run NetBSD

that they'll be about as popular as the Atari 7800 was. Or the 2600. Or maybe the Jaguar...
No, its "Army of Lamers" ;)

AFAIK, WinNT 3.5 was ported to Alpha, PowerPC and MIPS, all of which (I think with the exception of PowerPC...) were 64 bit architectures.
