Today, this comment is probably going to be moderated down, and that's to bad. But probably not unexpected. Two years ago, this comment wouldn't have been modded down, but two years ago it never would have needed to be posted.
Napster is not a website, it's a separate service that runs on entirely different TCP port. When I saw the words 'website' to describe it in Time magazine, I cringed. But, those people weren't expected to know that the web is different from the internet.
but slashdot was supposed to be different, it was supposed to be 'by geeks, for geeks', and yet, today, what do I see? The word "website" used to refer to the Napster service that you use to download songs from (I realize that napster does, indeed, have a website but that's obviously what the not what the poster was talking about). I mean, WTF? Of course, it wasn't Michael who wrote the words, but tyrann98. But would it have been so fucking hard to change the word 'website' to 'service'. I mean Christ, CmdrTaco mentioned using napster in some of the geeks in space episodes.
I've been becoming more and more disillusioned by slashdot in recent months, but this is the nail in the coffin (for me anyway). I can no longer expect any kind of technical validity from this page.
That's right, we shouldn't judge people on whether or not they have any basic understanding of geography. I mean, for some people it's hard to learn, thinking hurts! You're right, I'm sorry that I was so mean. The last thing I would want to do is hurt someone's feelings. It's much more important to know you're a good person then to know, well, anything at all. Never mind that Hong Kong is about as far away from Tokyo as London is from Berlin (geographically and culturally). Oops, I mean the distance from New York to Mexico City. You probably don't know much about that 'Europe' place (I hope you can deduce where Mexico City is - hint - it's not in New Mexico).
I said nothing about spelling or typing errors. But comments indicating true lack of mental ability deserve to be flamed. And flamed hard. If you don't think that being unaware of the fact that Hong-Kong action moves are not made in Japanese isn't unintelligent, then you have severely lacking standards.
I'd never heard of this Sung-hi chick untill somone pointed here said I looked like her. Anyway, chad just asked me for a pic and I sent him one. I'm assuming he just grouped it with the other's he'd gotten.
The culture of Canada and the US is actually pretty similar. I mean, just looking at a Canadian, or talking to them, isn't going to tell you right away. ('aboot' notwithstanding).
On the other hand, there is a huge difference between Hong Kong and Japan, and they don't speak the same language.
And there's a difference between misguessing individuals and getting major things wrong. How would you feel if someone who knew you were Canadian asked you what it felt like to be governed by George W Bush. Or clamed that your country had been founded on slavery. Those are American things. And even if you can't tell what country someone is from you should know those differences.
Do you know what language they speak in Quebec? What about Mexico? You do? Well, then you must be an arrogant little punk who thinks he's cultured because he know what language they speak in those places.
Real time rendered video is never going to be as detailed as pre-rendered (not physically possible). And, lets be honest, most Machinima looks like ass. I don't really see any point in having a movie real-time rendered at all. I mean, a movie by definition non-interactive. How does being real time improve that?
Can you point to any trends, or figures, other then your own personal preferences to indicate why what you are saying might be true?
If you want to have some fun with this bot, on the main AI site. Try asking it about AIML. Here's a conversation I had with it.
Me: Where are you?
AI: I am in Dr. Richard S. Wallace's computer in San Francisco. Where are you?
Me: I'm in Taipei Taiwan. Who is Dr. Richard S. Wallace?
AI: Tell me a little about life in Taipei Taiwan.He is the author of Artificial Intelligence Markup Langauge (AIML) and Botmaster of ALICE (Artifical Linguistic Internet Computer Entity). Dr. Wallace's work has appeared in the New York Times, WIRED, CNN, ZDTV and in numerous foreign langauge publications across Asia, Latin America and europe. <p> Richard Wallace was born in Portlan, Mane in 1960. He earned his Ph.D. in computer sciance from Carnegie Mellon in 1989. He lives in San Francisco with his wife, Kim, and son, Linus. (Yeh, the p tag actually showed up in the text)
Me: Taipei is OK. Why did Richard S. Wallace name his son Linus?
AI: OK. Do you still <get_does/>?He is a mad scientist.
Me: Do you know what Linux is?
AI: Linux is the world's best operating system
Me: What about Microsoft Windows?
AI: Microsoft windows ? I havn't heard enough about ti to have an opinion.
Me: What's AIML?
AI: The ALICE software impelents AIML (artificial Intelligence Markup Language) a non-standard evolving markup language for creating chat robots. The primary design feature of AIML (bla bla bla) XML (bla bla bla)
Me: Is there a URL for AIML?
AI: I belive there is one, yes.
Me: Where is it?
AI: It depends on what "it" refers to.
Me: It refers to AIML
AI: Oh i get it
Me: no you don't.
AI: I do too.
Me: What is the URL for AIML?
AI: Use http://www.alicebot.org
Well, I thought it was humors, this bot might not be that good of a conversationalist, but it certainly seems to be pretty good at self-promotion. o_O. I wonder if DreamWorks knows their site is being used for free advertising. One thing though, this bot dosn't seem to have much 'context', if you don't include the topic of conversation in each message, it'll probably forget.
That's weird. Those AI's did a really good job of talking to each other. But the monument I got sick of retyping (couldn't seem to cut'n'paste) The thing seemed to loose all sense of being real. Kind of disappointing.
the 'uptime' command or 'ps' will tell you how much CPU you're using.
What is slashdot comming to?
Not to mention the fact that I wanted to title this comment 'X' instaid of 'Xwindows' and slashdot's 'lameness filter' thought I was a troll because of it.
I dropped an old 2 giger a couple of feet. Worked fine afterwards. Your friends paranoia about hard drive placement has no real baring on the real world...
Above.net says that they won't deliver packets to anybody who the RBL lists as spam-friendly; spamming is a behavior that is content-neutral.
Spam is content nutral. However, being Spam friendly is not a behavior, it's a position. Blocking sites that are hosted by spammers. Blocking sites that sell Spaming software, or even lists of email address is not, in any way, content nutral
