  1. Re:What's expected to happen? on Be Buyout Looms Closer · · Score: 0

    It rather seems to me that the community would hack in the missing bits pretty fast. Be has some neat features... and is somewhat compatible with most GNU stuff.

    I figure as long as emacs, vi and gcc run on it'd be back on its feet pretty quickly, and with a lot more hardware support. Unless, I suppose, like, 90% of the 'technology' is licenced.

    Yeah, i remember buggin them for details about it =(
    I was real disapointed that GC was never ported... i just love those kind of games!

    AFAIK, i checked there web pages a while ago and there is no mention of anything there, about anything.

  3. Linux fragmentation: no big deal on Storm Linux · · Score: 1

    The *BSD ppl are having a linux bashing fit, but really, with LSB on the way, i don't see any problems with having a lot of distros.

    Right now, i don't see any of these so called damages done by fragmentation, and when I see some concrete problems, which i seriously doubt i ever will thanks to the above mentioned LSB, we will deal with that then. Probably with adjustments to LSB.

    Hence, the fix is already on the way. So give it a rest.

    (since everyone else is doing it =) I'm a Linux and OpenBSD user. I like both, even freebsd. I don't get it why the bsd ppl attack linux so much.)

    only at 3am? Wow, those are fast then. If I rebuilt everything on muh intel, it would have to have started sometime last year.

    I suppose I could have myself frozen (take a nap in the deep freezer) and wake up, tada!

    Mind you, that wouldnt work (well, ignoring the fact i'd be dead) the power company would complain about bills =(

  8. iMAC envy == wierd on The Answer to iMac Envy: NEC's Z1 · · Score: 0

    OK, thats a bit odd really. I'm a PC user, although not i'm really loyal to the platform (but i am loyal to my Linux, even a little rabid). I would be loyal to the hardware, if it was any good. =)

    I mean, lets fact it. Intel and its whole little set of 80's baggage is not very good by my stretch of the word. Its to bad.

    So blah, if you have iMAC envy, buy an iMAC, put linux on it, E and what nasty iMAC theme. There ya go.

  15. bullshit. on First cloned human embryo revealed · · Score: 0

    Can Science create the existence a living being? Oh yes, of course we can.

    Can it create life by your definition?
    Why not?

    Your being simple, a cloned human would be physicaly very similar to the original, however, within keeping of certain genetic traits, it will grow up to be like whatever it develops to be.
    It might be Happy and "Live" my your definition, or be misserable and not. The fact it has been cloned has no bearing on this.

    Now, thats probably obvious to anyone.

    the "Psychiatry and psychoanalysis" you so readily attack don't have all the facts, and guess what fundy? no one does. The good ones do more then just preach lies, they try and find the missing information. Sometimes they get bad results, thems the breaks, but its better then lying.

    Finally, i would like to say "Here! Here it is you bastards!!" to those religeous assholes you always said that Science and only take life away. Any inteligent person realizes that of course, this is not true and never has been. Those religeous freaks are always the first in like for the booster shots should something go wrong.

    Well anyway, now science can create life, for sure, here it is out in the open, and you still fight it.

    About R3 and R4, its a beta so i'll admit that is probably nothing. Probably.

    And no, Binary Compatibility is not broken every few kernel releases. Its not. Its just plain not. I can run apps from 2.0.36/7 with 2.2.10 fine. It might be broken between 1's and 2's, but not between 2.0 and 2.2.

  22. Re:EVIL! No, not yet at least on BeOS r4.5 released · · Score: 0

    Yeah thats true enough, I suppose 25 bux isnt piracy yet, i wasnt aware you could download the upgrade.

    I'll give it that its free for download right now, but the major revisions arnt. I'm not specifically pointing out Be Inc right now, but I think that all of these companies eventually succum to greed. Right now, only major revisions. But i'll bet they'll start releasing MS-Style major version upgrades, price tag included.

    My whole point is that even the possibility of these kind of problems don't exist with a truly free OS, like Linux, Free/Open/NetBSD, HURD or whatever.

    For the record to, I bought a copy of BeOS to take a look at it (i like playing with OS's), and sure enough, its a nice OS. I bought good hardware so everything worked out of the box. I would love BeOS a hell of a lot if it was OpenSource =(
    But its not and I think people should make a note of that, in the future Be Inc will probably get corrupted.

    Hey, this problem is easily fixed.
    When you compile the kernel, it generates a System.map, just copy that to /boot and it works fine.
