Wow, you and the post below you are just funny. Wish I could always get this good of a reaction, with deep insite into offerings of opinions backed by facts.
sure I could put together a cygwin environment and try to get some things compiled I could even run apache and mysql and some of the other applications I might need. Sure I could put a lot of time a labor into windows to get it to a useable point but what is the use of that. Windows is only better if your Time and Money are worthless.
I tried useing windows XP for a short period fo time but it seemed like I was going to the store trying to find what applications I wanted but would have had to pay well over $10,000 to get all the applications I would have needed. I tried pirateing some software that I wanted to use but that just didn't feel right. I switched back to Linux and don't know if I will ever even try that MS stuff again.
I wish there was a screen for xwindows. Some way to run programs perhapse through a $DISPLAY proxy that you could instruct to land on any real $DISPLAY you want.
something like:
# display_proxy xeyes -would land xeyes on your currnt desktop except you would have an extra option (needs support form window manager) to disconnect from your current $DISPLAY.
# display_proxy -connect xeyes -would reconnect you to the running xeyes and direct it to what every $DISPLAY you are currently on.
I know there was a project to create xmove i think it was that had the same effect in a completly diffrent way and required application support.
it is a matter of useing the system to bump itself. If the GPL's ideals are truly better than copyright than eventually it will spread and become the new system but for now it has to use the exisiting system. Only time will tell which is the best or most acceptable system.
I have always thought of the GPL as the base line between free and propritary. The GPL is the most restrictive license that should ever be accepted, with BSD or public domain being the least restrictive. basicly saying all software should be GPL or better.
One thing I did rather than actual raid 1 is have two patitions for/usr/local and/usr/localmirror. I would use rsync nightly to copy everything from/usr/local to/usr/localmirror and biweekly I would do the rsync with the --delete flag. this way I would also have a nightly "snapshot" like file recovery option if need be.
I had heard that the new VM for linux supports snapshots so I will probably be looking into that soon but I haven't messed with my file server in over 3 years. It just works (TM).
I was kinda thinking that as well, but I would say this is more similar to photography, in that you have to examine a fractal and find what inputs need to be put in to create a truely beautiful image. I have played with some fractal generators and I was never able to get some of the ones that the OP was able to generate.
Plus, as I understand it the only part of wine that is x86 based is the program loader. Witch is the part that most people use for runing windows programs under linux, but the library portition the portion that creates the win api is possible to port to any/all other platforms, as this part is really no diffrent than any other native library (gtk, qt, etc.) this is the part that mono uses.
The octane rating of gasoline tells you how much the fuel can be compressed before it spontaneously ignites. When gas ignites by compression rather than because of the spark from the spark plug, it causes knocking in the engine. Knocking can damage an engine, so it is not something you want to have happening. Lower-octane gas (like "regular" 87-octane gasoline) can handle the least amount of compression before igniting.
When lead was banned, gasoline got more expensive because refineries could not boost the octane ratings of cheaper grades any more. Airplanes are still allowed to use leaded gasoline, and octane ratings of 115 are commonly used in super-high-performance piston airplane engines (jet engines burn kerosene, by the way).

mostly the same things that happen when you do those things to/dev/hda3 (or what ever device your swap partition is on).
It would still of course be possible for a game to be made in its consistent ideal, but once someone draws a detailed 3d model of the ship, U.S.S Constitution, other games could use that model, even if just the wire frame and build apon it to fit their game. Plus putting their contributions back into the pile of U.S.S Constitution graphics and resources. Eventually you would have a 100% accurate 3d replication of it, usable by anyone that would need it.
Just need a sourceforge setup for 3d models and graphics that are transportable to other formats.
Yes, but nethack has allways done what I suggest. The graphics are all open and can be used by anyone at any point in time. They can consentrate on game content, story and drive engine for things like random level generators.

maybe if software was easy to install on windws it would be a little more usefull.

1st Try works, second and third ofthen don't because *BSD is dead.
This sounds like a great auto "First Post" response to all product anouncements.
I'd want to keep 86.75.30.9 as well. It's the ip address for jenny.com.

this time I was referring VM to Volume Manager. Not Virtual Machine, or Virtual Memory, or Vomit Mucus or any other VM acronym.
thanks

perhaps he didn't "lose whatever faith" but acually just "lossened whatever faith" he had.
becareful with loose faith.

An equally important quilifier, for me anyway, is "will this help to inspire someone to make a movie that is good."
Just because someone can invent a concept doesn't mean they have artistic ability, and vise versa.

WoodPusher is a one-man show. God, there's a joke in there somewhere.

No you are willing to pay. You'd rather pay the have an "awfully long walk." You are not forced to do anything. You don't even have to work.
Wow, the media succeded on you.
I currently run hacked Athlon XP 2000s to run in a dual Tyan motherboard. The hack worked flawlessly and saved me sevral hundred $$$$.
I'm not upgrading until I can get a dual core, dual proc system. I can't wait for 4 penguins on the boot screen for my Debian desktop.
