Why haven't anyone tested the motherboard (with all its features) under Linux?
They have a cursory look at Linux on page 17 of the Anand article. Not as much info as you'd like, but enough to reckon they have it working on the Mobo with little problem
Does anyone have examples of industries that have not tended towards large companies. The only ones (in the UK) that I can think of are Farming and Fishing, and they are being pressured by the economic powers of the large retailers
Learn something from history. Don't let an industry self regulate on something it makes no direct profit over. Privacy policies need to be backed by such legislation as
What recourse do I have if you break your policy
You cannot change your policy without letting me opt out
If you go under you can't sell my details, no matter how big a vice your gonads may be in
Bollocks. If you want people to reform then you have to make the effort to rehabilitate them. Let them find a belief that they don't need to break the law. locking them in a box for x years isn't going to help on its own. Game theory shows that trust once is a far better survival mechanism than endless faith
it's not possible to write software for profit ever again
AFAIK the GPL does not force you to give your software away for no charge. What it does force you to do is dsitribute source (or at least have the source easily obtainable) to people who have bought your code
Only people who have bought your code have the right to use it. The fact that much GPL software is also available for no charge seems to confuse people
So, ReiserFS finally did make it to the 2.4 series. Now what? You mentioned on the list that current development work is now focused on version 4. Would you provide a general overview of what can we expect from this version?
We are now all focused on jumping on every bug report that comes in, determining if it is not a hardware bug, and if it is a real bug fixing it immediately. We will stay that way for several more weeks until it is very clear to the community that the experimental label should come off (this is hard when new VFS/MM layer bugs keep showing up), and then v4 will start.

We've been hearing stories for a while now (3 years? longer?) that IPv4 addresses in certain ranges will be running out. Has anyone actually had any problems getting one. Does anyone have a public IPv6 address yet.

I was just reading yesterday's article on Crush and suddenly all the hardware sites slowed to a crawl
Hrrmph
Can't tell from the article whether they are UK pennies or US (is there such a thing?)...
I've often dreamed of being able to use a gamepad at work, but not for office productivity software.
Shouldn't reply to my own posts, yadda yadda, but it wasn't a GPL, attempt made to 'clarify' license, blah I got too excited by the low post number

I'm sure people can fill in others
it will show us the web as originally envisioned
The web as envisioned by graphic designers maybe. Lynx and Mozilla are never going to look the same...
That sounds like a person who has given up programming and moved over to the dark side of management :-)
Is morale spelt without the "e" in America? Or was it really some kind of eccentric social responsibility lesson?
With apologies...

I don't understand how sending rouge data sheets will "catch" the bad guys
Well its well known that "bad guys" can't resist make-up.

And of course the Irish don't pass out at all. In fact my better half is half Scottish and half Irish, which is very scary
Though with 10 (central) processors math intensive code will probably be pretty good, Big Iron really kicks at anything I/O intensive.
Mandrake is such a high quality OS
Its a distribution, or some kind of Deep Purple song or maybe something to do with dragon kin, but not an OS

Is this a new grown up approach to marketing, after the downturn of dotcoms, attempting to make things appear older than they really are
Never ascribe to malice...
Yeah, there is (at least) one in Euston too, Its been there about a year. Never had the urge to use it yet, never seen anyone use it either...
Although you've picked a demographic that will probably get you a large amount of well qualified people is there any danger of it being illegal?
Go shopping with this attitude: I want X, I am prepared to spend Y, if I can get it for less I'll feel happy.
Don't be worrying about what everybody else is getting, sometimes you'll be better off, sometimes worse, why stress?
Communism, Oligarchy and Technocracy are even more beautiful on paper but apparently even worse in implementation
