This sucks. I *JUST* bought a fucking RioVolt this past Sunday. Don't get me wrong, I *LOVE* my RioVolt but a device based on this would kickass.
Oh yeah, if you haven't seen the riovolt yet, It's a diamond rio device that actually reads burned cds of mp3 or wma files. It also functions as a portable cd player. It's pretty nifty and great for taking to the fitness center.
I'll bite at the troll just to save others some trouble.
GNOME IS NOT A WINDOWMANAGER.
GNOME *IS* A DESKTOP ENVIRONMENT.
The two are two separate things. You can run windowmaker just fine and still run gnome apps if it so pleases you. I realize you made note that you realized the two were separate but you didn't finish it that way. Give you windowmaker and keep the feet of the desktop? So run windowmaker and don't run the gnome panel or nautilus or anyother gnome application that you deem buggy or incomplete.
As far as the multiple monitor issue, does openwindows support multihead? Or does Solaris 8 ship with XFree86?
Says you.
If the xbox is sufficiantly hardware-hackable, I'll be first in line to buy one. Knowing Microsoft, they will probably attempt to shutdown anyone who posts hardware hacking information regarding the machine on the web.
There are,however, limits to free speech. One cannot yell out FIRE! in a crowded theater. And this isn't really a free speech issue anyway. It's akin to making unsolicited sales calls to a business' 800/877/888 (toll-free) number. The business recieving the call has to pay per call on the toll-free number.
In the case of spam, the admins and companies have to pay for resources in the form of servers, disk space and bandwidth.
What the REAL focus of the bill needs to be is that point. And they need to be fairly specific in regards to what is defined as spam. I think the comment Taco made about forged headers should probably be the key as it shows a conscious attempt to disguise the source of transmission.
Under a very specific set of rules defining spam, I would be all for a law like this. If it were too broad, I could be sued for sending an email to all my users letting them know about server changes. Technically, that would be unsolicited.

Basically here's the deal. Install the plugins as normal for netscape 4.x
Go into the plugins directory for the 4.x install and copy all the files (except the java and nullplugin) over to the mozilla plugins directory. Restart mozilla and type about:plugins in the location bar. You should see all of your plugins ready to go. The java plugin is a very specific version from java.sun.com. Go to products and look for a side link about jre 1.3.1 rc2 being available. Install it and copy the ns600 plugin to the mozilla plugin directory. You should be all set.
Currently (under the linux version) I have realplayer, java, flash and plugger running along side 0.9 just fine. There's a few pages the java plugin doesn't work on but it's just a few sites that have a java chat applet that I use for testing. No biggie.
You're missing my point. Up until that point, I had never done any sort of programming beyond shell scripting. If you're a PICK programmer then more power to you but making personal attacks is a bit low. I'm sure if I were to revisit it today, I could handle it just fine. But you were correct in saying that I didn't work with it long enough to figure it out.
God man. I had to deal with Universe/Unidata at one of my jobs. We ran it on HPUX. What a pain in the ass it was. At the time I wasn't OVERLY database savey but it seemed to be a workhorse. Not very friendly, that's all.
It's funny that you mention the Video DataBlade. My day job company did some qa testing (for Informix) of media360 before/when they were rolling it out to CNN. It's definitly a killer product. CNN was so anxious to get it that informix actually installed beta's on site at cnn and kept coming out to upgrade it. I'm guessing CNN was a rather LARGE customer to them;)
My feeling when I read this was that IBM wanted some of the Media360 technology/customers and that's where the buy came from.

"However, Firewalls are built to protect from external threats, not internal ones."
Excuse me? I restrict what traffic is allowed outbound and require authentication on port 80 since it restricts most applications that aren't proxy aware.
Here's the issue. If someone were to get something inside the firewall, I want to make goddamn sure it doesn't make it's way back out. I'd rather deal with a situation where something has tried to get out but couldn't and then clean up the mess rather than wonder if something got out in the process.
It's the same way here in several states of the union. Georgia is what's known as a "Right to work" state. Employers don't have to have a reason to fire you but they can't blackball you either which is the upside. They can only report on job performance.
This also makes it nice for some non-compete clauses too. The frivilous ones end up getting thrown right out.
Gracenote now owns lyrics.ch. I made the connection that gracenote is somehow tied to Harry Fox. I guess I was wrong allthough my point still stands that Gracenote seems to be fucking everything good about music on the internet;)
Guess I should have checked my facts better but I had just gotten home from a Bass Ale marathon and it was late and I was pissed. Never a good combination.
Gracenote are the same fuckers (sorry but I'm just pissed now ) who shut down lyrics.ch. I really am getting tired of people fucking up the internet. I think all the big corporations are pissed now that the bubble has burst and are looking for any way possible to get money back. I still say something like Hak Nam (Idoru) or the Walled City (All Tommorow's Party) is the only thing that's going to save those of us who have been using the internet longer than these punkass corporations. Maybe freenet is the answer.
Now everyone make sure you support FreeDB and tell these bastards that we don't need them.

This is my point. I've played with Evolution and I'd be willing to play with this but what I "REALLY" need is something that supports calendering from an exchange backend. I don't know the file format nor am I a programmer but until that happens I'll still have to have vmware at the office to run outlook.
Actually there is one but they sort of went out of business. Lynxus got bought by qwest earlier this year and then decided to shut down the ISP portion but they still provide ISP side filtering for schools.
The real problem is why the fuck they are storing credit card info on publicly accesable servers? Even the most basic secure layout should have the database behind a router and a firewall that has restrictions and ACL's tighter than a nun's ass. That's what pisses me off the most.
Actually I *DID* misread it as I've since gone back and looked at again. Many apologies to the original poster. the capitalization got me a bit railed up as I immediatly thought "Nader". I had just gotten out of a discussion with someone about this and my blood was already running hot.
I still stand by my original post about the hypocracy of voting for Nader when you say that you don't trust the government as far as you can throw them. I've been re-reading the federalist papers more and more lately and I've been miffed overall at the state of things. ESPECIALLY when I read articles like this.
