what would be even cooler though is if each palm pilot could act as a node in a self-growing network. with sufficient bandwith and rollout as well as a few repeaters, you could have a totally wireless network that is actually built simply by people having palm pilots near you. that would kick the crap out of just using infared docking.
no matter whether you like it or not redhat is a standard, and standards are what we need in linux, they bring us together. trying to push people away from redhat only serves to fragment linux and the community. (no, i don't run redhat(or mandrake for that matter))
He thinks Katz is an idiot. That is the reference point to compare oog to. And katz is "spectacularly different than you or I." for starters he is an idiot, is annoying as hell, writes meaningless, insulting drivel, and has front page post access. i don't see how being called a peer of Jon Katz can be construed as anything other than an insult. and i can still judge him by the quality, or the lack thereof, of what he writes.(this is much like how any other slashdot user is judged)
cmdrtaco and hemos run the site, the rest of the people are allowed in by them. personally i think they do a much worse job of things because they *aren't* nerds(think katz), but hemos and malda are interesting. and roblimo is an idiot, and i don't find that neccessary to back up. what i would love to know is how robin was selected as a/. editor.
wireless devices like this are cool, especially when the wireless service doesn't cost an arm and a leg. the nice thing with palm pilots is that they don't need all that fast of a connection, so that should keep costs down.
while the new celerons are nice chips, they definitely fall far behind the coppermines at comperable speeds, for a detailed celeron vs coppermine article check this one at hardocp
if you have a case with plenty of ventilation, as well as good fans on the peltiers, they will add to the life of the CPU. That said, I've never seen a cpu that was burnt out from normal usage or electron migration, but have seen hundreds of failed harddrives and a handful of shot ram. i would consider a peltier a good idea when attempting to cool the cpu in an attempt to overclock it, but maybe a little overkill if it's just to increase life of a normally operating chip. but heh, peltiers do have a serious coolness factor.
think of a peltier cooling a chip and then a watercooling system cooling the hot side of the peltier, that my friend is pretty high on the cool scale:)
go with a peltier, and use it as the excuse to overclock a teensy bit:)
don't go with a peltier, they generate tons of excess heat. while they may keep the CPU nice and cool all of the other peripherals will be hotter as a result. It's extremely rare for a CPU to quit functioning in only 5 years. However other components such as RAM and Harddrives(especially harddrives) fail far more often. Not to mention that they have a far lower MTBF (mean time between failure) when run in an overheated environment(which a peltier cooler will do to the rest of the components in your case. My advice would be to get a good heatsink-fan combo and a well ventilated case instead.

get the facts to your theories?
you're not on lsd or shrooms now are you?
i don't think i see the connection, but damn that prof seems wierd.
reminds me of in high school when we spelled out [creative] stuff on the scoreboards. oh well, i never got caught

well rc5-128 can be brute forced as well, but it's plenty secure. i don't get why they even make encryption standards lower than 64 bits.

they do some of the coolest mozilla skins

mozillazine redid their chrome section, chromezone
check the aphrodite one, it is *very* nice looking.

vorbis is higher quality density than mp3 and it doesn't have encumbering patents and licencing.

i think you are exactly right, linux can be way too powerful, because unlike aol and ms, it doesn't totally suck
as much as they suck they keep on growing, how do they do it?
well, i'm sure that it's some chip, hands down of course
good question
oh i get it, but i think anyone who is browsing at +2 is a fucking idiot
you can't find anything but ass-kissing karma whores at +2
how the hell did that get troll get marked informative?
and people wonder why i have this nick, oog, i look up to you more everyday.
why is /. hiding this from everyone?
