What pisses me off is that many Americans vote for Bush because they claim he is consistent with his values and they are against Kerry because he changes his mind. What would you rather have...someone who is consistently an idiot or someone who has the sense to change their opinions based on new information?
For real. I bought a Samsung LCD in January and I'm still waiting for my rebate. Anyone else have similar experiences after buying a Samsung LCD in Canada from BestBuy?
This is one that a prof of mine did once, he stuck two electrodes through a pickle and sent a lot of electricity through it. The end result is a yellow glowing sodium based light source which looks really cool.
Sysadmins just put an apt-get update in their list of cron jobs. I'm sure it'll save them time by not having to constantly check for security holes, etc online.
Don't minidisc recorders do this already? I have a minidisc recorder/player and I can connect audio in from any source, whether it be a 3.5 mm analog connection or an optical connection and record exactly what is being played. I don't see this technique as anything new other than the fact that you're just inputting the sound into a computer and encoding it as an mp3.

I agree. Why are all the images of this "watch" rendered? I want to see something real!
Rogers is still up, just that they are dropping the @home. They recently setup new mail servers, etc to handle the switch over and are even providing a lot of incentive for users (Futureshop shopping sprees) to switch over early anticipating the closure of excite@home.
I have the 45 GB ATA/100 75GXP series drive and it just recently developed bad sectors and started doing some weird stuff in Linux when I tried running apps. I had to change my filesystem from ReiserFS to ext3fs since ext3fs can actually mark bad blocks unlike ReiserFS. Right now, I don't have the time to send my drive back to IBM because I'm in school but when December arrives, it's back to IBM for this hd.
Actually, Mandrake 7.2 ran pretty fast on my Pentium 200 MMX with 128 MB of RAM. It was damn smooth and just as fast as windows. I'm running Mandrake 8.0 on another Pentium 200 MMX but I haven't gone graphical on it so I can't say how slow Mandrake 8 is compared to 7.2 but 7.2 was great even on low end machines.
I'm quite sure that in order to create artificial gravity the force or acceleration would have to be pointed in a downward direction in reference to where the astronaut was standing. I don't think that by accelerating the ship to 9.8 m/s^2 we will be able to create artificial gravity but just a thrust force or that launching feeling. Something similar to what happens when you accelerate hard in a car. Plus the amount of fuel that would be required would be enormous and highly expensive.
But to answer your question, Gravity that we experience on Earth does equal acceleration but it has to be pointed downward or towards the centre of an object to have the same effect that it does on Earth.
Isn't it true that Mozilla does have some problems with memory management with the kernel? I was at a LUG meeting and someone was talking about problems with the 2.4.x kernels and applications that are heavily dependent on memory swapping such as Mozilla. Can someone please elaborate on this?
Loki is the only company out there that has attempted to port commercial windows games to linux. Now, I have no hope of playing all the windows games that I love on linux unless Transgaming can finally finish their DirectX port to wine. Really, this is a shame and it would be sad to see them go. I hope they can work things out. Come on people, buy some linux games!
Yeah, where is this script! This would make me a very happy man and it would certainly help reduce the load on my poor linux machine that is being hammered by those damn Win boxes! In a weeks time, I have received over 2800 attacks and I'm not even a large corporation just a cable user. This is ridiculous!
Instead of using the Passport service, why not use a system like Jabber. Jabber is an open protocol and is well documented. I'm sure someone will be able to extend the protocol to include secure authentication and e-commerce support.
I'm quite sure that UK is a democratic society and with democracy goes the freedom of choice. Well, the government has just removed that from people who use non-Microsoft products. This is the first that I've seen of a country supporting monopolization. In the process they are breaking the foundation of democracy and freedom for the people. This is stupidity.
Atleast in Canada most government documents are accessible in many forms, whether they are online, mailed, faxed, etc. Also for the online forms, all that is required is a browser that supports 128 bit SSL encryption, not a Microsoft based one. I hope Canada does not decide to take after its Monarch nation in it's rash decision.
There is a program called Motion which allows you to detect motion using a video4linux device and it can send you a SMS message or an email if it detects any sort of motion in the area. I'm sure you can modify the code to your needs since it's opensource:)

It looks like this is Microsoft's new autoupdate feature. Exploit your own vulnerability to patch it :D

Will this driver work with any of the ATI OEM cards like the Sapphire Radeon series, etc? Has any tried it?

Does this also apply to mp3s that have been decoded to wave and then re-encoded to Ogg?
that the lizard could run this fast!
If you like images of space and the universe check out the artwork by Greg Martin. Although they're rendered images, they're still spectacular.

I usually just install the src in to /usr. That's where all the mandrake kde binaries, shared files, etc are too. I just overwrite them

Really, this latest release of Mozilla is sweet! It seems a little faster and lighter on the cpu. Great work Mozilla developers! :) Moz all the way!
