Huh? They already do this. It's called winXX. Others already do this, they are called 'binary only' releases AKA Star Office, WP8, various X servers. What would they gain by releasing MS-Linux except for performance, stabilty,... IF they do do this, then Linux will have won a major battle. They will have dumped their kernel and architecture. If "their linux" runs the code, compiles, links, and all else with everyone else's distro, then what's the problem? I mean really, if I can take my tar, rpm, deb, or whatever, ftp it to my new ms-linux box type./configure;make;make install, what's the problem?
The male forms of words have long been acceptable as a viable method of addressing an undefined individual or group. If you meant no offense, then it is their problem to grow up and realize that rather than be childish and 'offended' when none was intended.
The odd twist is that some males will get upset if you try to address them as 'doodette' and at the same time they will expect the females to appreciate being addressed as 'dood'. So the tender offendees do live on both sides of the sex fence, just shrug 'em off.
The are not electrons. They are simply shorter in wavelength than ultra-violet, and longer than gamma rays. They are capable of ionizing the stuff they hit, and thus can dislodge electrons and do damage.
AFA the impact on laptops goes, whatever ionization occurs is transient. Over time with many exposures, you might kill your laptop with airport scanners, but I imagine that you'd kill yourself first. I wonder, has anyone run their laptop through a scanner while it was on? Did it crash the laptop?
Afterall, you have to pay for your site somehow. Would they object to your posting of an mp3 on your "free" geocities site? I doubt it. So long as "you" aren't "geocities".
If you have a private, corporate site or personal one that is partly or wholly banner supported, then go ahead and post the GD mp3 on the server, just don't put any links to it on your sponsored page. Only give out the URL that goes direct to the GD page and let it stand alone.

When I saw that, I scrolled up to see if it was dated April 1. I saw that it wasn't and started looking around for some kind of BS flag and saw the disclaimer.
On the right, the top is a female with her zipper partly open. I guess she's going through that "water retension" time of the month. Orrrr maybe her jeans just shrank too much in the drier...
Immediately below that is a male with a revolver and a knife.
The rest are a mess. Only clue is that the female on the top left is swallowing something.
What I wonder is how they collimate the beam and/or sensors and yet provide sufficient signal strength to use a low level of illumination.
I wonder if I still have that old Thrustmaster throttle control thingamajig mark X in the closet. It had a bunch of buttons on it with rockers and more. Perhaps I should try to apply it as an alternative keyboard.
Has anyone already pulled something like this off?
The idea is "install once, run anywhere". He also wants to run the same apps, regardless of the client platform.
Admittedly, there are other solutions such as export the apps via NFS and/or Samba and still run them on clients, but there is still another benefit to his centralized model. Only one box needs to be big, fast, expensive. He doesn't a mutli-gigabyte drive on every client along with 64MB of RAM and a fast proc.
>4. Keep your own record of the interview and have someone else present (a parent or trusted adult if you are a minor)
When you enter the "interviewing space" have your recorder out in the open and on, even before the interview actually starts. Don't act hostile, just tell them that you are making a recording for your own future reference. Tell them that you are doing research on the mass media or whatever...
...of that phrase entirely. Words only hurt if you let them. Someone that doesn't know me can't insult me. All they can do by trying is degrade my personal opinion of them.
OTOH, if I hear someone that does know me insulting me, it gives me pause. What did I do to warrant that? This person is my friend. What's gotten them in such a mind that they would want to insult me. Is it my fault, or something else. It still doesn't hurt unless they are probing some wound, or some personality fault that I already know exists. If they are pointing out some failure or fault that I have not recognized, then I am thankful and glad. I will have to work harder to make myself a better person.
Your life and what you do with it is your responsibility. It's part of being an adult. In opposition to popular opinion and the law, being a responsible adult does not have anything to do with age. I know, I did not grow up until I was 25.
OK, so you were not born with a silver spoon in your mouth. Guess what? Most people aren't. So, you are just like most. Want another bit of insight? Fifty percent of the population has below average intelligence. I'm willing to bet that you are not a member of that set. So, there you are, actually born with a gift that gives you an advantage over half of the people out there. Use it.
Sure, there are some potholes in your way. You have the choice. Run into them, get stuck and cry, or run into them get stuck and find a way out. Learn to avoid them in the future.

For a single, deployable weapon yes, nuclear bombs were the most devastating. For which bombing raid killed the most people in a single day, lookup "incendiary", Dresden, Tokyo, and perhaps "fire storm".

It is possible, that a perfect game might actually end up with such simplicity as "first move wins". That, IMO is equally boring. Or it might turn out that "second move wins", which IMO, is equally boring. Anything else, is definitely not a perfect game.

for Data and Lore.
No problems on two linux boxes here. I run it with this command line ./setiathome -nice 19
It does take a sizable chunk of memory though.
RSS=13196 %CPU=97.2 %MEM=20.8
which compares to netscape:
RSS=13924 %CPU=0.0 %MEM=22.0

Heh, the contradiction that he implies!
"I know what I am doing well enough that I can run as root!"
Except that if you did know what you were doing, you wouldn't run as root!
Laugh him off.

Yeah, the broken "Ask Slashdot" slashbox is weird too. It's been stuck for weeks now.

I can see the // at the bottom as well as you can. The object was to get people in general, not just the AC, to stop considering themselves as victims.
