Is a 1Gb of data considered high load? So far for 5 years, my Realtek card has been solid. The sis900 builtin on my mobo though, it is a POS.
For about year I used it for NAT, as I had a single notebook in addition to my desktop. For web browsing it was ok, but if I had to transfer any large amount of files, I either hooked it up to the Realtek or burned a cd.
Take a one gallon ziploc bag take leftover vegetables from meal and pllace in bag freeze add leftover vegetables from next meal to bag freeze repeat untill full
place contents of bag in large pot add water add buillion and/or meat if desired simmer
Rather than spaghetti, try spaghetti squash. Slice in half, scoop out the seeds, and bake about 425 in a pan with about 1/4 inch of water for 1/2 hour. When done, scrape out the flesh with a fork. It should come out in strands like spaghetti.
Now there are a couple of ways to serve it. One involves olive oil, garlic, and parmesan. Or butter, and Italian seasonings. Or tarragon or whatever else takes your fancy.
Personally, I prefer a good mushroom pasta sauce.
Steamed tomatos are good too. Basically the point is, anything one might do with pasta, one can do with spaghetti squash, and end up with a healthier alternative.
With a bread machine, I would advise premixing the loaves and storing in plastic baggies. Substitute dehydrated milk, and it is a matter of adding water butter and yeast. If one has bread pans or a baking brick, one could just use a mixer and bake in thier oven for nearly the same effect.
And when you are cooking, use some good teflon coated pans. You use less oil and cleanup is a snap. And when cooking, use a flavorful oil, like olive or sesame. If you like high heat cooking, grapeseed oil is your friend. Many of my friends maintain that a smoke detector works better than any timer.:)
My 366 Celeron Notebook only has 192mb of ram yet under most circumstances I can safely disable swap. I have a 128mb swap space that usually gets unused.
Have you used cygwin? For command line stuff it is great. It is a major PITA to get an X app working. A shining example of this is Lyx for Windows. Setting up cygwin is more difficult than installing Linux. Setting up X on cygwin is magnatudes of order more difficult than installing Linux.
If to get a Free Software app running on Windows means first setting up a Unix-like environment, I would not call that porting. That is a recompile. Use of cygwin means that you are still tied down to a Unix environment.
And if you want to get technical about it, there are versions of WinAMP that were made for Linux and MacOS, Putty is a SSH terminal so that can be considered a port, it is unclear how much code came from the OpenSSH. It also runs on Linux so...
You list a few pieces of software, two of which I have no familiarty, but the other three performed well. Now want to go through the list of crap on Tucows and download.com?
Two things Netscape has over Mozilla- AIM, and the ability to pull your Netscape webmail into the mail client.
One other minor feature is that some websites are brain dead and will disallow Mozilla, yet allow Netscape. For a few months my Credit card company would not allow Mozilla for the payment features. yet Netscape worked fine. They finally have it "fixed" now though.
Umm, I graduated high school 5 years ago, and I got a degree in Engineering Physics 1 year ago. We were taught the scientific method, I'm not sure where it's not taught.
The point was, if the scientific method needed to be explained, then obviously some people never learned it to begin with. It follows that presumably they were never taught it. Or they are a bunch of idiots.
Theories can be replaced with competing theories if new evidence can be found. At one time there was Lamarckian and Darwinian theory. Eventually Lamarck was disproved and Darwinian theory, well, evolved into the Theory of Evolution. New theories comme about that are found to fit the existing evidence better.
When theories become univerally accepted, they become Laws. Even Laws can be disproved such as when Newton's Three Laws of Motion were found to not be univerally true with Einstien's theory of Relativity.
One must wonder why the scientific method is not being taught in schools anymore.
Depends on what you are used to. I grew up flying, and consequently, I have zero fear of flying. I have probably flown more than I have been on a bus. I know I have been on a plane more times than I have been on a boat or train. My first time on a boat was a whale watching trip in choppy seas in grade school. I attribute that to having no fear of the open sea or suffering sea sickness.
If you are acclimatized to new experiences when young, then one will not not have a fear of those things.
What is easiest to do? Well, keep doing the same old thing we are now.
What should we do? Well, we really don't know. We seem to be on the brink of a major climatic change. We also seem to be on the brink of a magnetic field shift.
What can we do? Well, pollute less seems to be the only sensible solution right now. We don't even have a solution to replenish the Ozone layer. How do we scrub all the CO2 out of the air? It surely doesn't help that we are burning down the Amazon Rainfoest, one of the largest carbon sinks on the planet.
Unfortunately on this issue, I really feel that extremism is the only answer. The risk of failure is too high. I don't relish extinction.
Though one has to wonder if this hasn't happened before. Man has been around for over 100,000 years. The historical record only goes back for maybe 10,000 years. What exactly were we doing for the other 90,000? It seems hard to believe that we took 90,000 years to develop agriculture and cities, yet going from simple civilization to landing on the moon took at most 8000 years. I use that as a point as that was about the time we started using Iron and Bronze and Copper instead of Stone.
The US government is run by the citizens of the United States of America. What the government own, is collectively owned by the citizens of the USA. Fine if you want to give up your rights, but screw you if you try to give up mine.
Community is the same thing as the previous final releases, ie 9.2 or earlier. Official is community plus a couple of months of bugfixes. Otherwise you are correct.
The Community edition is directly comparable to the Fedora Core Release. It is the same as previous Mandrake releases. The Official release is basically community and several months of bugfixes. If one was updating regularly the Community release, then it should be identical to the Official release.
That would be Bic and Liquid-paper in the States. You British and your wierd terms. Calling cookies, biscuits; elevators, lifts; and car trunks, the boot.:-)
All the earlier problems with aspartame are from phenylalanine. If someone suffers from Phenylketonuria, too much phenylalanine will cause brain damage. The early case with rats are traced to Phenylketonuria. Seeing as how if you suffer from Phylketonuria, your urine will be black.
The breakdown products of aspartame are kinda nasty, but as long as you don't bake with it, there is no problem.
And lastly, if you are really concerned there are alternatives, some diet drinks now use splenda, or sucralose. Of course that product seems more potentially toxic.
I own about 250 CDs. To be able to conviently store that amount, I need better compression. As I also don't want to have to do some on the fly conversion to MP3 so I can load songs onto my RIO, Ineed them to be in MP3.
In theory, a printer that Dell sells is less profit than a printer that Lexmark sells. Correspondingly, there is less risk to Lexmark so presumably they consider it a good deal.
Any printer that Dell sells, is one less printer that Epson, Canon, HP, and anyone else still in the printer buisness would sell.

Adding tomato soup was one of my favs from college.
Simple way to make your own soups-
Take a one gallon ziploc bag
take leftover vegetables from meal and pllace in bag
freeze
add leftover vegetables from next meal to bag
freeze
repeat untill full
place contents of bag in large pot
add water
add buillion and/or meat if desired
simmer
enjoy home made soup made from leftovers.

My 1.74Ghz desktop consistently uses 1mb of swap.
/dev/random worked once for me though. :)

There is also the Netscape webmail client too. With netscape you can actually pull your webmail into the email client.

Grillin'' is high heat source underneath like a Gas Grill, while broil is high heat above like the top heating element of an oven.
I thought we were menat to learn:
How did it happen?
Why did it happen?
and more importantly:
How can we cause a repeat of this?
How can we avoid this?

About the same as Dell, slim and none. :P
