  1. Re:Here's an idea! on New Linux Kernel Development Process · · Score: 1

    >Yes, I've tried fixing some myself.

    Perhaps others tried and failed as well -- you just don't see them posting to the mailing list "I tried and failed!"

    Maybe the old bugs are the toughest to crack? At least you tried...I haven't. ;-)

    I tipped my server and the hard drive crashed.

    Damn you! *shaking fist*

    I don't think I'd want to see how the porn industry would use this...

  4. RedCondor + SpamAssassin on 11 Anti-spam Products Tested · · Score: 1

    My solution of choice is RedCondor paired with SpamAssassin. Only about 2-3 spam make it into my inbox per week with this...and I haven't even really tweaked SpamAssassin much.

    So, uh, where do I buy a Hard Drive of Infinite Speed +5?

    haigographies

    Wow...first time in awhile I've had to run to the dictionary. Thank you!

    (Tho, the dictionary says it's "hagiography", but that's being nitpicky ;-) )

    Just reverse the flow of coffee in -> urine out.

    And that would be....urine in -> coffee out? No thanks!

  9. Re:So...now what? on Evolution is a Myth in Kansas · · Score: 1
    Read the article tough guy. It says that evolution is no longer required to be taught as it will no longer be included on the Kansas Standardized Tests.

    "The board voted on a modified version of curriculum guidelines for grades kindergarten through high school that eliminates evolution as a way to describe the emergence of new species"

    "Banning evolution from the classroom"

    "But this spring, a school board member introduced a competing proposal to remove evolution theories from classrooms"

    Dude, why don't you read the article? You must be a product of the Kansas public education system, hmmm?

  10. So...now what? on Evolution is a Myth in Kansas · · Score: 1

    So, they can't teach evolution. They can't teach creationism. Ummm...so what WILL they teach about the origins of man? And what will they do when someone asks "if this is microevolution, then what's regular evolution?"

    And I hate to think about what's going to happen to any budding, say, archeologists once they reach college...

  11. Re:ST4/Chompollion -- Oops...never mind on Europe plans comet landing · · Score: 1

    Ok, ok, so I jumped the gun. NASA sucks for cancelling ST4. (But they don't suck in other areas, so I'm not heartbroken :)

  12. ST4/Chompollion on Europe plans comet landing · · Score: 1

    NASA hopes to do something similar in 2005 -- check out the ST4/Chompollion mission site. (The ST4 project used to be called DS4, one of the New Millenium missions)

  13. Re:Negative Mass/Energy? on Warp Drive Breakthrough · · Score: 2
    If I remember correctly, doesn't the Casimir Effect result in negative energy?

    The Casimir Effect, basically (and don't flame me if I'm wrong! Just post a correction.. ;) consists of two electrically neutral plates placed VERY closely together. So closely together that the distance between them is smaller than the wavelength of some virtual particles. Because there are fewer virtual particles between the plates than outside, the energy density is LESS than the vacuum energy density -- negative energy? Not in large amounts, but a clue as to where to find the stuff, perhaps...

  14. Working on one... on Randomly Generated Art · · Score: 1

    This is my first /. post, so be gentle with me.. :)
    I wrote a "genetic art" program for the Mac a few years back that did some really cool stuff. (You might have seen it's output on my "gamedev" site). Now that I've seen the Linux light and thought about it some, I'm working on a second one that is going to be fantastic. Currently a GIMP plugin, possibly a screensaver (but I'm new to Linux coding), and looking for ideas and comments.

    I'll be sure to brag about it here when I get it done and up with a web site.. ;) Not too long, now!
