I just loaded an interesting role-play/action game called Hopkins FBI. It touts itself as the "first commercial Linux Game"... I think there were others(I'm not a big gamer...) anyhow you may want to check it out at www.hopkinsfbi.com. regards.
And why are they masquerading as ICANN when all they do is tell me what "I Can't" do?!!?
I tried signing up for the mentioned comittee, and had such a terrible time going through the process I just outright gave up. Sorry. I will just develop another internet-like society once the regulations are on, and I can't stand it anymore.
Yes I agree that I would miss my CARS (plural). I think however that I would be willing to give up my cars for my life(talking polution here). Yes that's not B.S. either. I do value my ability to breathe/drink a beer now and then/walk around more than my cars.
Has anyone asked why we use cars? I think it's just an assumption that we need cars. I think a nuclear(electric) powered rail transit system for mass commuting accross country, and also for large items would work as it did in the past(well steam trains anyways)... and then instead of commuting to work we could live near enough to our workplaces to either ride the metro, the bus, a bike, or walk.
We didn't have cars 200 years ago, and people survived, I think we could probably figure out a way to do it again!
Where is Kaydara's website? If I understand this correctly you should be able to duplicate the efforts by using multiple still cameras placed in a row(circle, incline, etc.) and release the shutters simultaneously. The exposed (or digital) images are then placed back to back to create a seamless movement across the stage, with the actors(and all other motion) frozen. Kinda cool...
To quote the old folks reasoning: "if you have to ask how much it is you can't afford it"... how much sense does this make?!!? We aren't selling Rolls Royce's here!!
I was just involved in this discussion a second ago... our small ISP is creating a new brochure. The older group feels the prices shouldn't be included so as to get people to call in, and thus allow our salesmen to hook them.
The younger generation (I'm 24 so I'll include myself) feels that the prices should be included with a "prices subject to change" waiver. This way we save our salesmen's time for potential clients rather than giving out directions, prices, and quotes over the phone. (i.e. they are actually out there selling)
What??... does this ensure that your website is never worked on? Wow, perhaps Microsoft should invest in this, they would at least guarantee the instability of their OS, and at best reduce the number of holes in their next release!
I am not a huge Anime fan, but this definitely is a smart move, and one that will be common in the future. It just makes sense for any movie released in multiple languages to be on DVD vs. VHS for the subtitle/audio language selection features.
As for being released solely on DVD I am all for it! There are many reasons to go this route, VHS wears out, DVD's don't (within reason of course). The cool additional features, and the fact that the DVD medium is gaining popularity at a very high rate!
David states (paraphrased) people live with flawed systems which were current in the late 70's.
He fails to include the fact that both hardware and software are constantly progressing with Linux, as evidenced by the (almost sickening) barrage of Mozilla releases, my constant pursuit of the latest versions of GIMP, and Gnome, and the fact that Intel and AMD are racing into the 1GHz range for processors.
Harddrives are soon going to be as small as a matchbook, and able to hold as much data as a mainframe in 1976 could.
I'll tell you what David, I'm willing to live in the past as long as you aren't.

WAP Under Fire
·
· Score: 1
Actually having conducted many tests, and made many recordings of large rubber-bands hitting walls I believe that they sound much more like: "Whh-Ap!" than "WAP" of course, this is taking into account a travel distance of over fifteen feet, and a height of approxametely 981 feet above sea level.
Wait, so is beastiality going to be allowed now? I mean if a mature adult parrot wants to see Monica getting it on with his wife...
And if a cat eats his mouse, who will the lawsuit be against?
What about kids(young goats) watching porn? how will we stop that? I mean humans have the discovery channel to watch other mammals in the throws of passion...
And what about dogs? I understand they can't view 2D, so is the government going to create a special grant for lassie to get a special 3D monitor for ten grand?
Finally, will the dog continue to be Mans best friend? even in an AOL chatroom??!??
I like GIMP and everything, but It'll be nice to have some (ahem.) competition in the Linux Graphics market. I do all my webdesign on a Linux box, and have been using either dreamweaver/fireworks running on VMware and Windows, or GIMP for graphics.
Advertising is a gamble no matter how big or small your company is. I don't feel particularily sorry for these companies as my company has taken some gambles, and lost. However we have also taken others and comeout far ahead! It is too bad that it didn't do better, but what were the good things to come out of it?
The people who did attend had more one-on-one contact with each vendor. It was much easier to meet vendors and establish potentially long-term beneficial relationships.
It's easy to dwell on the bad things, but overlooking the good is just not right.
I am an amateur photographer, and have delved into pinhole photography before. Pinhole uses no glass, just a light limiting hole. Thus the image is completely in focus. When using a lens you need to adjust/define focus in order for your subject to be clear.
So, when working with huge chunks of glass, and mirrors, how do you adjust focus? Do you guess the distance from your lens to your subject with a radio telescope? what if your subject comes out blurred but that is actually what you are seeing? how do you know when to sharpen it?
Also what is the realistic limit on size for the glass?
there. someone posted it.
/. for spilling in their lap...
once you step back and think about it, it's really not too funny. I mean someone might sue
I digress.

Ok, can anyone tell me why an Industrial Automation company was sought for their opinions on a Talent Agencies( iam.com ) website?
am I the only confused one?
And why are they masquerading as ICANN when all they do is tell me what "I Can't" do?!!?

whatever.

And just where does ZDNet think an open source product gets it's money to fund their vote buying?
uh... yeah sorry.

Does anyone else find the line "...Mechanical engineer and radio commentator..." terribly funny?!!?
Yup, I completely agree.

I guess the AOL helpdesk guys decided they wanted to answer intelligent questions.

OK, yeah I'm not a huge telescope guy... I just assumed that you would need to use lenses of some sort to magnify the images...

I can hear it now...
