first it was bush killed people by not warning them in time about tsunamis, then bush caused katrina with global warming now he will be responsible for not warning people around the world in time to save them from earthquakes.
"From a user's perspective, what does Internet2 (or Abilene) "look" like?
As a person who's been on internet2 for 6-7 years now (and currently posting from a machine on Internet2) we get great stuff like I2hub to share huge files really fast and fantastic speeds( practically no lag) on online games with other I2 users on a private server on I2.
After that, day to day browsing is the same since the sites are almost always hosted on the slow internet.
The author of the article is an idiot and one who has never heard of the long march. That is a video everyone should see. That is seriously worse that a satellite loss. The long march launches in the 90s were basically ballistic missiles launched at villages. The death toll from one is about 500.
since they dont translate the number or the name to japanese and just call it the PS3, i doubt that it would be a problem. But you never know. I know hospitals dont have a room 4 since no one wants to go into a room marked "death".
Seems you misunderstood the system, what did you think welfare was for? That kids parents probably voted for the right party and was just reaping the rewards.
Taco! there is something wrong with slashcode. I blocked these jon katz stories ages ago. Heck i never even read the Junis story on slashdot until someone told me. WTF is this doing on the front page. Where should i submit the bug?
as does java and adobe pdf reader. You also see people damanding the source for all of the above. Do you see skype in debian? imagine being an average user and having to jump through hoops to install skype on your ubuntu box.
wow! a whole 1000 copies at $50! that will really cover the cost of porting the game. It might make sense to port only if they raised the retail price. Esp when you consider most linux users will probably not buy the game and download it instead. There is a reason why there is a lot of commercial software for the mac and barely any for linux even though they both have around the same market share. It has to do with the culture of the users. Linux users are used to getting thing for free and most of the software is. Then there is the whole "I dont want non free on my system" crowd who will demand the source code of your game...
no CPT is through your school and is only valid for credit if you are not working for credit (for example at a random dot com) you have to use OPT during the summer. Even then you cant have more than 12 CPT when you graduate or you lose ALL of your OPT.
In the US, you are allwed to work upto 20 hrs on campus and you get to work off campus for internships with authorization. You have a total of 12 months off campus for your entire stay and are allowed to decide on how you want to use that. Many people take 3 months for each summer others take 12 months at once after college.
sure, he was just working illegally to fund his studies. Lets ignore the fact that he is a gold farmer, it seems like someone really didnt need 1.2 million dollars to fund his studies though.
"but since most of Asia uses the same kanji system"
holy shit, you stepped on one there. Most of asia DOES NOT use Kanji. Kanji it derived from Chinese. Chinese is fragmented in two forms since the communists took over, simplified and traditional and neither map to Kanji 1 to 1. I am not sure about Hanja but i doubt it as well. Japanese also has kana and korean has hangul which are completely different from chinese characters.
Much of South East Asia uses a modified latin alphabet south asia uses a sanskrit based alphabet. Add arabic and hebrew and thats a ton of new characters. The two chinese, korean and Japanese alone push you into hundreds of thousands.
Seriously, this is one of those times i really want to say fuck you to the world. Considering the DNS is based in the US, Latin it is. Make yout own DNS that no one uses if you want another. Seriously having the same character in maultiple chracter sets visually indistuingishable from eachother is the best thing that will happen for phishers in ages. How do you know yourbank.com is actually yourbank.com in latin and not in some other characterset. Its not just for latin either. Imagine Japanese Kanji and Chinese in simplified then in traditional encodings. Nice! you can have nihongo(kanji).com written in 3 different encodings and can send you to three differnt sites. How do you know you are going to nihongo.com and not ribenyu.com.
Jeez this is the most retarded thing i have heard of since the UN threat to split the net a few months back.

Im looking forward to those headlines.

I am guessing this the next logical step from the toolbar plague we experienced a few years back.

leave it to a french owned company to do something stupid.
sarcasm doesn work online very well does it?
"I don't see any reason why they would use Mandriva over anything else, other than Mandriva being French."
haha you dont really seem to be familiar with the frogs do you?
in other news NSTA rejects KKK film for fear of angering everyone. whats the difference?

And no mention of Gojira?
i suppose it is because most linux desktop users do not like paying for things. Wow is not going to be free so there is no point in a linux version.

where is this ad everyone is talking about? All is the link to a youtube video.
its peanut butter jelly time!
let me guess this is going to be as great as the ps2 linux kit. remember that thing?
emotions. You do know that the ps3 has the ps2 EMOTION ENGINE. Thats the source of its power.
This thing is full of really bad puns and reads like an ad for a certian data recovery company. how the hell did this get posted on the front page?
