I always thought that the resolution limits for a given wavelength were beacuse of the "effective size" of the photon. For example, a 150MHz photon could only resolve features larger than about 2 meters, it's wavelength.
Linux will hasten the demise of weaker OS variants, such as OS/2, NetWare, older NT versions, SCO OpenServer and UnixWare, SGI Irix and other nondominant legacy OSs.
Then add some utter stupidity:
Revenue for AS/400 and S/390 systems continuing to decline slowly through 2005 as in previous forecasts - both AS/400 and S/390 will remain viable investments throughout the next five years -- For what, pre-y2k accounting packages that drive dot-matrix printers?!
Plus some beating-around-the-bush:
Solaris momentum "speed bump" in 2000, with increased discount levels until next-generation UltraSPARC III systems appear (especially to replace the UE10000); -- can you say "just don't use the 400 and 450MHz processors with the cache bug?"
Finally, top it off with a buzzword-gasm:
Countering this trend will be accelerating server deployments for e-business and services, Web portals, intranets/extranets, application service providers and Internet service providers. The increased storage needs of business-to-business and business-to-consumer activity will drive torage subsystem costs higher in a ratio to total configuration costs -- blah blah blah
this was a little embarrassing for them, and the engine was tweaked to fix it
Is anyone else offended by this? The algorythm was obviously working correctly. Many sites used those words to describe M$. When they say "tweak", they really mean "break" for political purposes. Remember how everyone said "That's cool, Google returns M$ for an evil search and they have the balls not to change it?" Well, it's time to take those kudos back.
Could someone start a free and open Google style engine with no "tweaks"? Let's not forget the whole Yahoo "Tweaking" as well.
Then read Dean Perrit's answers, which were not written or checked by the FBI or DoJ, whose agents can read them here for the first time just like anyone else, assuming they have nothing better to do than read Slashdot.
Part of the problem is the Government (military in particular) loves to specify (dictate) odd standards and requirements. This is why you can go to a military surplus sale and see barrels of 49 pin swizzle-twist 7+1 notch connectors that were speced for exactly one project (probably the space toilet). The only reason industry puts up with it is because they order alot *and* pay alot to make it worth their time.
This is also true of software. Why use COTS when you can spend another couple hundred K and get 2 extra features?
Maybe if Red Hat starts a GSA cu5t0m m0d division, that will satisfy their needs.
The truth is, 3 dimensions is alot safer when you are flying nimble devices like this. It would be hard for two people to collide if they tried to.
Plus, there is vastly more volume of space, so "jams" would only occur close to the ground where speed limits could be enforced (by darwin if not the cops).
Maybe this will make it easier for MS to put government backdoors in their products. Backdoors in hardware are much easier to conceal and harder to circumvent. Clipper Chip anyone?
6 hours was probably the ammount of time it took to fsck the disk array. Sounds like poor design methodology (no duh, 1,000,000 virtual websites on one box?!) rather than bad platform choice.

Have you used Netscape Messaging Server?
Netscape Calendar server?

Way to go Gartner Group!
I don't know if it's water but it sure looks like flowing liquid to me.
Also, Here's a close-up

Actually, execution is exactly what comes to mind when I run M$ code.
Now where can I pick up some faulty-but-fixable 512MB RAM sticks?
:(
Oops, now you can't

Unless of course he sent it in an email.
Malin's canal pictures were pretty dissapointing.

I love this testimonial:

Oh boy, here we go again...
C'mon, we all know how much crack you guys
smoke up there.
Of course NetBSD has supported Sparc for a verry long time and will continue to.
Maybe RH is trying to work some deal with Intel? Maybe it's because Solaris is mostly free and has full driver support for all hardware?
The so called "at large membership" is merely
window dressing.
This article explains in painful detail who really controls ICANN.
ICANN is a scam.
This sounds like additional support for Dr. Tom Van Flandern's Exploded Planet Hypothesis.
If they don't compile and test each alleged infraction, and they sue you, could you countersue for damages?
Any number of changes from subtle syntax errors to replacing whole modules with the first ammendment could be done to make it legal under the DMCA.
Just make sure you don't include any instructions on how to fix it.
What if they sue you for linking to something that diddn't work?
I bet we could get about 100 Million dollars from the MPAA this way if they persued a bunch of us.
I think I'm going to apply for a patent for the following invention:
1. A system by which an organism inhales air that may have come from a neighboring zip code.
I hope all of you are ready to prove that the air you breathe diddn't come from the next zip code or get ready to cough up the dough!
Here's a Canadian Newspaper article that came out a few days ago about this. It includes some interesting information from a LEGO representative.
