I know this movie isn't available in dub form yet. But what point is hearing the original voices if you don't understand the language and that something has different meaning depending on its tone. Perhaps this is just a issue for the English language?
Why do people like fansubs over dubs, at least for the people who don't know japanese, don't they lose a large part of the dialog due to not understanding the person's inflection/tone. Perhaps that isn't a big issue? I've watched many of both type and end up liking dubs due to that reason.
Its great that you found a way to accurately measure how many users there are for any freely distributed software, especially how many desktop users there are for linux. The only thing that can be reasonably measured of course is people who actually pay for their free software, which isn't that many.
Please share your secret on how to determine the number of users with the rest of us. The last numbers I saw for example showed linux having more marketshare than apple. And yes the reports you get from trade rags are wildly inaccurate.
That said MacOS X is definitely very nice from what I have seen.
You do realize that AMD Athlon XP 3000+ which is coming out in a few weeks only really runs at 2.16GHz right?;)
A G4 runs at around 1.5x MHz an equivalent P4. So a 1.42GHz would probably perform about the same as a P4 2.13GHz. Also P4's can't run in SMP mode, although you can buy a Xeon for that, so a Dual G4 1.42GHz is roughly equal to a single P4 4.26GHz, currently the fastest P4 is 3.06GHz.
What crack have you been smoking lately? XMMS is GPL'd and ogg vorbis is BSD'd, they are compatible and ogg vorbis support is directly included in XMMS (I have version 1.2.7 here). Old versions of xmms needed a plugin (iirc) but that was long ago while ogg vorbis was still in alpha or beta.
I am not certain but doesn't the tivo's linux kernel have some binary only drivers in it?

His fundraising drive was very well documented and at least several thousand of it went to lawyers fees for the nonprofit. However, when they redid the webpage recently for freenode it appears they took the donation ledger offline. Or at least I can't seem to find that page anymore.
I wouldn't be surprised. People outside of California don't get the $100k/yr jobs that you seem to expect.

Either you think OPN was created in the past six months or you are blatantly lying. I have used OPN for the past four years and the only reason lilo posted anything before this recent (~ six months) donation thing was for DoS attacks and rehubbing.
So you are the one to blame for the fragmenting of OPN? I noticed vorbis split off to its own network, of course I have no intention of opening yet another irc session so Debian's vorbis packages will not be updated quite as fast anymore...
As I understand it, the reason it was taken off of DebianPlanet was that never should have gone on there to begin with. From the discussion I saw on irc the only person who has a problem with OPN is one of the DebianPlanet people (Joy) and other staffers on DebianPlanet made him remove the post, this is not nearly the story that/. makes it out to be.
I have seen bonnie report ~ 40MB/s on a single IDE drive, that was around a year ago, so I imagine current model drives are faster. Too bad you spent so much on that fibre channel raid.
Sony has optical pickups that do both DVD-R/RW and DVD+R/RW as mentioned on this site it is in japanese also but you can use babelfish or just look at the pictures.
Well the dot pitch of most/(all?) 19" CRTs isn't even sufficient to draw 1600x1200 properly so that is a major factor in it being unreadable. However, 1600x1200 on a 16.1" LCD is still small but it should be readable since there are really 1600x1200 physical pixels on the screen.
Sony already has laptops with 16.1" screens the point of the post was the new DVD-R/RW drive included. I am not sure why cmdrtaco changed the title to miss the point.;)
The last time I checked the install floppies there was no unstable install option. At one point early in the woody boot floppies development there was the option to install either testing or unstable, but I think that option was removed.
To install unstable you are supposed to install using stable, or testing if boot floppies exist for it at the time, stable being the safer one to use then edit/etc/apt/sources.list and run apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade.
I've seen some backbone providers offering in the US 100mbps for ~ $3000/month and 1gbps for ~ $18000/month. Of course not all backbone providers are cheap.

It would be nice if it required 4GB of ram thus forcing Intel to release a desktop 64bit chip like AMD is already doing. ;)

Now do you see why Apple is using SMP?

I did make the file 2x memory size... dumb ass. hdparm -Tt by the way reports ~ 320MB/s which is the cache speed.

oggenc now has a -1 quality mode with a nominal bitrate of 45kbps. It actually sounds very good try it out.
Ogg Vorbis 1.0 is already uploaded to Debian sid and should be installed today. It should be compiled for all arch within a few days.

I don't know about iBooks but x86 laptops get too hot to reasonably use in your lap, so the extra weight is not that big of a deal.

Out of the past 4 years of running unstable the only major problems I can remember occurring in unstable are:
1. perl breakage (~ 1999)
2. pam breakage (~ 2001)
3. lilo breakage (I vaguely recall this)
The only one which actually bit me was the pam breakage since I rarely reboot my system, and don't use perl much.
The last time I checked the install floppies there was no unstable install option. At one point early in the woody boot floppies development there was the option to install either testing or unstable, but I think that option was removed.

As /. recently published not only is Microsoft going to be at LWCE but they will be an exhibitor.
The one I can remember right now is Cogent although I think there are others.
