As written on the LJ FAQ, LiveJournal started on March 1999, beating up Pitas.com which started not until July 1999 as Rebecca Blood stated in her "History of weblogs".
I would be interested in knowing which was the first blog system site ever created. My guess would be LiveJournal.com but I won't be sure. Does someone has a clue?
Well being able to pay my phone, broadband internet access and cable services on one bill already exists and it's called "AT&T". Just a reminder of what may turns wrong.
Well if I have to explain all the kernel parameters to auntie, like all the networking modules "no Auntie, you don't have any IPX network game installed, well anyway you don't play network games, you don't need it" and "on your machine you don't have any SCSI card but you should use some SCSI module if you want to burn CDs" and the "no, no SMP... I won't explain to you what it is but you are certainly not running a biprocessor machine"
My questions are: will the module and kernel configuration description will be written in Aunt Tillie english? does some options will be masked to simplify it?
But more important: using it for commercial purpose you have to pay them a fee based upon its usage. I will never get into it for that. Anyone should bane such pratice.
I already have enough of the Microsoft fee on my computers, paid my web site, but paying for the usage of generating their content, no way.
This is old news. In the car industry back to the Ford T model each employees are working on a specific task and not each one working on all parts of the car making process. When you focus on one task you gain in productivity. Nothing new here...
My first and only distros I bought was RedHat 5.2 like many people at a "Best Buy" store near me... Since then I got my ADSL line (two years ago) and all the distros I wanted to try...
But I still purchase distros to offer them to my Windows wanabee friends... Maybe the high sale numbers came from there...

Well I have to see this before I die: Microsoft never invented products so innovative, we will never see something so cool... one reason: you can setup your box on a network to act like windowsupdate.microsoft.com and deliver all the viirii updates to all the networked windows box... Euh... I have seen crazier things like that like Javacript in mail...

"scandisk
Scandisk is a program that scans the hard disk to find and correct any errors. Running this regularly ensures that all of your digital information remains safe.
defragment disk
Defragment Disk is a program that rearranges the data in mine more efficiently. "Defragmenting" mine's hard disk in this way helps mine to continue to provide you with fast access to your digital information."
I don't see why it needs a scandisk and defragmentation if it runs Linux...
How does it acts like a server, anyhow? I mean, does it have CIFS(samba) or HTTP(apache) built-in?
Image it with apache installed with all its beloved modules like php and mysql...
I have to hacked that.
Hey I am just sharing the albums I ripped myself from my collection with my direct friends. It's a fair use pratice, no? Well I know they are all on my corporates LAN but it's legal, right?
"By the way, if you install the Full or OEM editions of Windows 95, 98, or ME, the MSN icon is on the desktop itself, so that's old news for Microsoft to put the MSN setup icon on the main desktop of Windows XP."
Yeah I remember the MSN service for Windows95... At that time MSFT was still thinking that the Internet will never be what it's like today, that MSN will be the online services and the net a curiosity that would fading away... Damn, I can't imagine how the world would be today if they were right:-)

With 10 millions Napster users, with access to nearly all songs recorded, they should buy far less music.
As the normal CD buying rate is 3 CDs by persons by years, you should see a lost of, let say, 2 CDs by Napster user by years. Which means $300 millions lost for the RIAA, that's nearly nothing for the RIAA $15 billions profits from 1999.
This is true only if those users "save" their CDs buying money and invest it in something else which is not proven. Why those users having access to millions of songs whould discover less music they like or want to buy less?
Napster gives users the chance to discover musics before buying them blindly and buy independant artists musics that does not follow the RIAA marketing scheme to be known.

As I remember the ZD benchmark comparing NT & Linux last year did not do that well, remember, I hope they will run a second one this year... running TUX as HTTP software and beat the crap out of NT.

Damn I have no use of my ADSL anymore.:-) I still don't know why they have limited the upload connection to 28.8 on V.90 when I think of all the time I have lost upload on FTP server before I get broadband. But the most valuable asset with broadband line is the always on feature... no connection waiting time. Something like 20 secondes to get connected is way too much, when dialing gets through. Anyway if the phone line where better here in the US I am sure we could get twice or more speed on a simple modem.

Any ressemblance with any know multi-platform independant language is completely not hazarduous.
Just after looking at this document I just wonder why it's called C# and not Java# because it's seem just about the same except for the "runs only on Windows platform" thing.

It's very subjective to say when this site took off.As written on the LJ FAQ, LiveJournal started on March 1999, beating up Pitas.com which started not until July 1999 as Rebecca Blood stated in her "History of weblogs".

Entering inside a server room and the only thing you can hear is "gloup".

And when will we be able to watch "Geeks in Space" over an HDTV signals ?
Who really need another Java language. I mean kaffe is great but Sun's JVM is closed source. Installing it and looking at the about box I see tons of "Portions Copyright ©" lines. Even if I like Java and writing Java code, if I should develop to a new applet capable language I would prefer see its runnable environnement open source and this one seem far away from it but to its copyrighted parts.
But more important: using it for commercial purpose you have to pay them a fee based upon its usage. I will never get into it for that. Anyone should bane such pratice.

The point is you can get Linux free via download, at $1 or so mostly the cost of the CD or purchase it for $40...
You can also get a CD copy from one of a friend of yours...

This is not a press release for a brand name, it's a press release for the new logo... Look at that: a 8MB Tiff file for just to announce it.
