I for one welcome our bird-like flocking-flying parallel-processing bluetooth-connected linux-cluster overlords !
what's next ? flying pigs with embedded linux running on hardware powered by blood sugar connected by light-teleportation doing acrobatic displays whilst hosting online PS3 games. I think so !
I have 2 Dell 6650s, loaded with 4 HT Xeons and 32Gb RAM each. However, I had to disable HT on them as the license for the application I'm running allows 8 cpus only; when it detected "16" cpus across the 2 servers, it refused to start. So this news actually makes me feel better about the fact that `top` only shows 4 cpus on each box:o)
The great beauty of the linux desktop is that it, like all *x desktop windowing systems, is not standardised - and therefore, you don't have to use a bloated implementation. Personally, I use openbox, which as about as far from bloated as you can get (assuming you something a little more sophisticated than twm..).
Also, the point of the sun specification for Java is (in part) to ensure that the JVM performs consistently across platforms.
no, you don't have to dump all the frames into one file.. or even dump them to a file at all ! just hold enough in memory so that you can encode effectively (think I/B/P frame principle)
the real difficulty lies in doing screengrabs of DRMed video....
yes, you don't get a free TiVo with a UK tv license

yes, especially freshly squeezed, from the orange you are eating whilst typing !!
behold the iClot !
Verity K2 actually. But yes.
kudos, FreezerJam. I knocked out the basic idea trying to get fp, but you've obviously given this some thought.
oops, meant pgp, then put it on the floppy
write it in advance, take it to the cybercafe on a floppy, pgp it, email it to someone you trust (or an automated publisher)

.. and pigs will never fly
lol, they even have a commercial with a pengiun, classic !! http://www.unox.nl/acties/movie/commercial.wmv
forget longer pipelines, it's girth that really counts
.. and I will refuse to purchase it, also out of spite. Hah! Take that, Micro$haft !
another fail safe, in that people too heavy would not be able to squeeze in the tube ;o)

disproving the existance of $deity in increments
yes, msft do indeed give props in FTP.EXE, as long as you grep/findstr for it. Hence the sig.
I'd be quite happy to pay, say 25% tax on my copy of gtk-gnutella. or 100%, 500%, 1000%. whatever.
easy, tiger ;o)
TFA suggests that bittorrent is at the heart of tiger. Perhaps Apple should look closer to home ?
John Logie Baird recorded 30 line video onto 78rpm records in 1928. He also demonstrated a 600 line HDTV colour system in 1941.

Virage (part of Autonomy) does some cool stuff
.. now *that* would be a story ;o)
The BBC Creative Archive may work that way - see http://alchemi.co.uk/archives/mus/latest_on_the_b. html
