Chances are you can get it to run under Wine. (Well a little hacking may be required)
I stopped working on Direct3D 9 for wine about 18 months ago and we were getting there then. Since then Stephan and the chaps have done a great job and Wine is giving Cedega a run for it's money. and the best bit is you get the source code to wine so you have to opotunity to get games that don't work, working.
I haven't noticed much of a problem with the volume of drugs in the country. Well except my dealer won't come out at 6am and usually doesn't have stock by Tuesday, but that's soon corrected by Wednesday.
I agree that coding standards are a similar story. personally I think that prefixes in front of variable names work quite well when you coding in a language like basic. But as soon as you move into OO and everything because objSomething then there pointless, also with OO you code 'should' be in shorter blocks so you should be able to see everything that's going on and those prefixes become useless.
I just try to stick to whatever the standard coding conventions are for a particular language or set of libraries I'm using and I don't really care what that happens to be.
But I'll have a guess that it's a little like being religious, other people can tell you all sorts of bad truths about your beliefs but that still doesn't stop you believing.
So, your saying that somewhere in the world there are actually people who do lock themselves *inside*? I would hate to live in a place like that. BTW I live in the UK and we don't tend to lock ourselves inside either, in fact in one house I lived in no one even had a key to lock the doors with.
'Captialism only exists and flourishes in a manifestly free society'
Many people say that China is more capitalist than the USA with their recent growth. China is hardly a free country. (and it's certainly not communist either)
You had it easy, back in my day we had to post all our data on punch cards, send them off, wait a week, hope there wasn't a error in our request and then read the HTML back one like a time
it could be that you can't send messages back any earlier than the time the message was created, effectively only slowing time down so it take less time for the message to arrive. Less time could be no time at all so the message arrives when it's sent.
This won't allow you to send messages 'back' in time though.
It may have been one of those myths, but I heard somewhere about how if there was an invasion people could run out into the street with their microwaves and fry all the commies.
It sounds so highly implausible that I thought it could only have originated from the US government.
First off for WPA to be useful they have to put a non default password on the router, that's not an easy job and will push up the price of the routers quite substantially. And then there's all the support calls from people who can't access their router because they couldn't find the password/lost the bit of paper with it written on etc...
In short, if routers can with encryption turned on by default they would have to have some kind of default password.
And if they have a default password everyone knows it so it's useless and they would have been better off with WPA disabled in the first place so they didn't pretend to be secure and the dumb user wouldn't have stuck with the default passwords.
Personally I leave my network open, then at least I have some kind of defence when they catch me reading websites about how to make bombs
a recent ruling in the uk stated that compensation should be paid on a patent that's been granted even if that patent is subsequently found to be invalid.
your right I don't think I want a stable ABI, I know I want a stable ABI.
That document assumes that the only way to get a stable driver (personally I don't care if the drivers flaky so long as it works 90% of the time) is to put it in the kernel tree.
The only reason I can see that you couldn't produce a stable driver outside of the kernel tree is that the kernel API/ABI keeps changing all the time. That's not a driver stability problem it's a kernel stability problem.

That and the low levels of sunlight hitting the planet.
You'd have to have a lot of reactors around just to keep the place warm enough for life.
"wake up and make your voices heard through protests",
That sounds like incitement and that's soon to become illegal in the UK.
Like Virtual Child Porn?

Canada, people didn't lock themselves *inside*
So, your saying that somewhere in the world there are actually people who do lock themselves *inside*? I would hate to live in a place like that. BTW I live in the UK and we don't tend to lock ourselves inside either, in fact in one house I lived in no one even had a key to lock the doors with.
I believe there are 'less' restrictions on companies in china than in the US which has helped China's growth.

A kilogram was equal to 1000 millilitres of water and that 1000 millilitres of water would fit into a space 10cm cubed.
If they've already defined the metre using constants, isn't something like this the best way of defining a kilogram.

If this manages to get through google will be dead in the water by the time anything's done about it.
Starbucks isn't part of a megacorp that sells weapons
Starbucks had a little get together called 'bowling for Israel', to raise funds for Israel.
you'd never guess who the Israeli side of things was organised by, yes the very same person who organises fund raising for Israel's troops.
maybe not a megacorp that sells weapons but certainly one that supports oppressive regimes.

and don't forget that that digital ID will be used hidden in any digital content you buy so that any copies you make can be traced back to you.
They ask you to identify 8 numbers that are spoken.
I tried it twice and could only identify 6 numbers on each occasion.
Kinda like you'd like to keep the caveman with the club away from the nuclear bomb.
And then you voted for Bush, TWICE!!!!!!
people often see FOSS as inferior because you don't have to pay any money for it and if it's free then it must be of lower quality.
People should be free to believe what they want.
That doesn't mean they should be allowed to coerce others into their false beliefs.
a recent ruling in the uk stated that compensation should be paid on a patent that's been granted even if that patent is subsequently found to be invalid.
Now that sucks
which box, certainly not the box the hardware comes in because they all seem to be Windows and Mac only.
