What I want to see if Mars at night. Why can't they take a few pictures of what the two moons look like from the surface? They always take daytime pictures.
If you ask me, it seems like the amount of sunlight has increased, but that's probably just related to the fact that I'm indoors 90% of the day looking at an electron gun.
Perhaps some kind of system that keeps track of how often you run certain programs and when you don't use one for X amount of time then it puts those programs into a submenu or something like that. I think that would be a good feature that Window currently doesn't have (at least as far as I know).
I guess on open source systems, the tendancy is to install most of the software that is available, so you wind up with a lot available to you, meaning that your games menu is full of things like KFoulEggs.;-)
Ya know, this is one of my big pet peeves. First they put those self swipe things on the customer side with one of the intentions being to keep your card information to yourself. But that is pointless because all the stores have adopted a policy of checking your signature anyways. Appearently they don't see it as a security risk for the customer.
Now we're talking about radio credit cards? What is the point? The cashier is only going to ask to see it as well, the only thing it might hope to help is wearing out your card from swiping it so many times. I guess your wallet will make up for that by breaking it when you sit down and your wallet is in your back pocket.
Maybe some students who pay the $25 or $50 a year will start running ftp sites (and mirrors) with the RedHat generated upgrade rpms for the non-RedHat software that is GPL'd.
RedHat just keeps trying to sell stuff that eventually has trouble selling.
I worked for a guy who wrote a haiku generating signature generator back in 1998. And his was based on the idea of some perl module that did something simular but with rhyming poetry.
What happens when someone registers the domain cnn.com where the c or n is actually a character in a different character set. Then it would be difficult for 99% of the population to tell the difference say when they follow a link to http://www.cnn.com/the_world_is_ending_sell_your_s oul.html
Maybe NASA will develop a weapon to kill him with an earthquake. Not exactly something you can jump on, is it. (Ok, so I took that from Conspiracy Theory.)
Yea! This is my first mod 5 comment in weeks. The past 20 or so comments I have made have just fallen by the way side I guess. Or, something is wrong with slashdot.
Having done a presentation on Frontpage Extensions and Apache at ApacheCon, I can officially say that the Frontpage system of doing things sucks ass in the Microsoft way.

Thanks, this is actually quite helpful info.

I would think that most likely the OS that will start being used there in government will be determined by our military or theirs.
Hmm, an anti-spam law written by the Direct Marketing Association. No, that doesn't sound like an conflict of interest to me.

Sigh, why did this guy get marked as a troll? I thought it was funny too.
See, they even say it in the article:
"The card companies say the system is much faster and safer because the card never leaves a customer's hand."
Dumb.

Not only does Anonymous say a lot of things and write some music and paint, but he also has one of the world's largest databases.

Nobody asked me, but in my opinion and experience, non-technically oriented people have no business running the Internet and determining it's course.
Ok, but you're expecting these guys in blue suits to really distinquish the difference between a failure and a crash?

Sigh, why is this offtopic. That's rhetorical, I know why it's offtopic, but can't people have a laugh about stuff like that. Sheesh.

Does anyone else find this funny since Apple basically got started because HP waivered their right to Woz's personal computer idea.
Maybe a UN run internet could help put a stop to all the port scans and spam coming from Asia, where sysadmins don't seem to care.
I did go and skim through the pages linked to, but for some reason I thought it was microsoft.com as well that had this problem. I guess not.
Wasn't microsoft.com renewed by someone in the open source community a few years back? That made headlines in a few places.

I'm welcoming any open source replacement.

Are we talking about a pen that would be used in the space capsule or shuttle or outside in a vacuum?
