from "prohibited uses":
access any other person's computer or computer system, software, or data without their knowledge and consent;
does that mean that I have to ask a site operator before downloading any files from his server (eg. browsing his site)?
If the site provides a link to download it from their own server publicly, they are giving consent for you to download it. If you are accessing a computer that is acting as an FTP server because of a trojan, that is a different matter.
Also policy cuts the other way. If somebody's computer is attempting to propogate a virus to your system, its attempting to access your system without your consent.
I think it's a shame that writers of Linux apps generally assume that if you're not using Redhat/Mandrake then you want to compile the program from source.
It is also sad that many Linux users believe that developers should have a machine, or at least hard drive partition for every Linux distro. Why not CONTRIBUTE to the project with non-distro specific binaries yourself, or binaries for your favorite distro.
NOTE:I like Slackware, and have provided binaries for it before, but I have heard this complaint too many times, for XYZ distro.
The PowerPC (of which the G5 is generation 5), was developed by the AIM alliance - Apple, IBM and Motorola.
When Motorola could not keep up with chip production in 2001 or so, IBM took over as the supplier of chips for Apple.
If you look at the quicktime of Steve Jobs keynote at WWDC 2004 he mentions somewhere between 18 and 26 minutes into it (After hte Ipod stuff) that IBM has managed a 25% processor clock speed in the preceeding 12 months, compared to Intel's 12.5% over the same time frame.
I was a Junior High student when they proposed hands across America, and it was stated it was impossible. As I recall it came off mostly intact. I seem to recall some guffaw about a gap or two, but in general it happened.
Question: Can we, the geeks, mobilize as well as that? My own sedentary nature tends to lead me to be pessimistic.
Yes, but they aren't focusing the beam anywhere as tight as it is portrayed in Sim City. In fact I remember one estimate was something like residents in the area are exposed to radiation (albeit a different type) somewhere in the equivalent of what a Dental technician sees in a year. Not nearly as dramatic as Sim City would make it out to be.
I have installed the Nvidia drivers under a few different distros. So far I have found it easiest with the Mandrake 9.0 download version. The commercial version is supposed to ship with the closed source drivers.
I have tried, and succeeded, under Red Hat 7.1, 7.2, and Debian Woody.
However, these instructions for Mandrake were the easiest I have been able to get them working:

Under Mandrake 9, I have played UT and TacOps, both without lockups and within +/- 3 fps of the same games under Windows.
The only time I have failed to get them working was on a K6-2 500 mhz system. Interesting same card in my Athlon 1.2, same distro, worked fine.
However, for reaching further from the CO, it is possible to do IDSL. It is 144k/144k symmetric, and is often marketed as a "business" class service. Therefore it has a business SLA, and often comes with a router and multiple static IP's. For example one major ISP sells it with a/29
I grew up in Humboldt and Mendocino counties. In a little town called Covelo, and on my grandfather's ranch, 2 miles south of the Humboldt/Mendocino county line. I fully expect to see my post modded down because it is NOT what people want to here. Before you label me a troll, realize this. I have been on slashdot.org for 2 years, and post rather infrequently. This is TRUE and is not trolling.
There are four groups in most of the small towns in that area: the potgrowers, the ranchers, the loggers, and impoverished native americans. The lines between the groups blur, but one thing to keep in mind, is the "full-time" environmental activists up there are often from the pot grower category.
The environmental sentiments of the potgrowers is not leaving nature alone, but leaving their crops alone. There are a some true hearted environmentalists up there, but if you watch you will notice a pattern to them. They will be real active November-February, not hear much from them March-May, and then active June-September. This is because the plant in the spring and harvest in October.
Further the protesters that travel up there do not know their rears from holes in the ground. For example in 1993, approx 25 people traveled up to the Mendocino National Forest to protest logging. They ended up chaining themselves to trees on the Campbell Ranch that were not scheduled to be logged, and rustling and killing 3 calves from the Campbell's herd. Eventually they left the ranch, well, were run off by the sheriff's deputies, and they filed lawsuits for police brutality which were dismissed.
In the Spring of 1990 or 1991, don't remember for sure which one. A PRIVATE airplane went down in a remote canyon in Mendocino county enroute between Eureka, and Lakeport. Its emergency beacon was originally tracked, but shut off approximately 4 hours later. The battery should last for 48-72 hours minimum. I was in the SAR Command post, when the volunteers doing the ground search were driven off by men wielding AK-47's. I was present when an air volunteers plane was shot, and the search eventually called off. I was also present when the coordinator of the search was told in November they got an anonymous tip and the plane found, under a camoflage net near a pot garden. It was not clear if the occupants had died in the crash or from their injuries shortly thereafter.
I know a friend who lost a testicle and part of his hand when he stopped to take a pee next to the roadside and triggered a pipe bomb which was planted to protect a nearby pot garden.
I also saw the same people I knew were growers, marching in protest of logging. Now, many of the loggers have lost their jobs, and moved away.
Simple, while it is incomplete, Subways, are a "target" for terrorism. This was demonstrated in Japan a few years back with a gas attack. Remember, terrorists are looking for psychological impact. Setting off a bomb in an enclosed space, with limited escape routes, and lots of places, especially if it is part of the city's infrastructure seems like would be a target.
Breathing and heart beating, I might give you, however moving body parts is NOT built in. However, in the case of my daughter, she was NOT breathing at birth and had to be resuscitated. It was not because anything was wrong, but she needed an extra boost to get started.
Much of the first few weeks of a baby's life is spent learning how to move their body parts, and the discovery process continues for the first several years.
With both of my children I enjoyed watching them discovering their own feet with their hands. First the process of learning to move their feet and hands, and then the shock, and delight when they managed to grab on to their own feet.
Slashdot Mirror
This is a review, not a story.
ASUS was doing this on their K6-2 Motherboards in 1999. P5A was overclocked out of the box.
I personally don't like this Thomas Hawk, from this whole thing.
1) If you read his blog about it, he insults ALL IT professionals and tech support people in particular.
2) His post on HP's site was not well written.
3) He then expects slashdot to rally behind him.
Sure, Slashdot didn't post it before it was changed back, however he sought this avenue before that point.
Most wired/wireless routers have the capability of doing DHCP on the LAN ports.
D-link, Cisco, Netgear, etc all do.
The Airport with only 2 Ethernet ports offers them to either be WAN and LAN or both LAN.

Yes, they still include logo stickers.
They don't include a packing list though.
Actually they run IBM chips.

I enjoy FPS, but my wife doesn't. However we do play Shadowbane together. It doesn't have native headset support, but you can still run Teamspeak.
Problem with games with native headset/voice support is your talk is going to be shared with EVERYBODY on at least your team.
I am sorry, I don't want to hear you going all lovey-dovey on the mic.
Stryker is designed as an in-between vehicle between the Bradley and a tank. Most of its firepower is actually in its infantry dismounts.
The old bat has just plain gone looney. No other explanation for it.
Nvidia does release FreeBSD binary drivers.
One thing tht is nice about Nvidia's site is they make it fairly simple to find the driver you want.
Actually I run a MUD, and still do. My player base is small, it is split about 50/50 between the 25-35 crowd and the under 20 crowd.

Talking about id, there was a look down game called "Escape from Castle Wolfenstein" I used to play a lot on the my Apple ][e.
They also just sued a ring of spammers in Buffalo, NY today. Sounds like they are on the offensive.
Thank you, it needed to be said.
Further, we have captured several labs used to make WMD.
The Geforce4 MX can support dual head, but not all cards ship with 2 outputs.

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't a singularity, similiar to, or perhaps a type of black hole, and the event horizon is the edge of it.
