This was funny, I mean come on, four people died, who cares. More people probably died while I was writing this post; 6 billion people on this planet and you people get all worked up about four people dying. I dont know but I thought it was funny, went along perfectly and the guy was just trying to throw a stick in to the java/C debate. Anyway, it's just sad to see everyone get all worked up over four people dying, there are many more tragedies out there.
If one machine can read my thoughts then another machine could also read my thoughts. Can you imagine the consequences, government, advertising, and absolutly no privacy whatsoever. This could be very very scary...
Linux is the biggest socialistic effort ever. Love it or hate it, that's the way it is. Even if not one person in china uses linux they have gotten their point across. It is a model for the people but not necessarily the way the country operates. They don't consider themselves communists but socialists, same as the ussr was. Communist countries pull these publicity stunts all the time because they can say, "hey, look at us, we are doing the right thing." Instead, they are doing the exact opposite (As far as most people are concerned, I try to be somewhat tolerant). Ah, the ironies of communism...
An optimized compiler for one. Anyone working with linux on an alpha knows the performance of gcc is sub-par. If you want any real speed out of the alpha, it really helps to have digital and ccc. Linux on alpha is good, it just has a ways to go before it can catch up to the performance of digital. Try some tests on the digital machines vs the linux machines with compaqs testdrive. Im not sure if gcc is symlinked to ccc on the linux box though, you might want to check because ccc is definatly going to produce faster code than gcc but digital will still pull out ahead. Make sure to take note of the load though. Sure there are downsides to it but digital is about performance on the alpha first and formost. As for the unsupported part of your argument, whats linux?
It is so cool how VA helps out as much as they do. Is it just me or do they donate to everything linux be it boxes or bandwidth. I bought my last box from them and while a little on the expensive side, they used the absolute best parts and when my power supply died there was another one waiting for me in the morning without a hassle. Think about it though, half the linux sites seem to have some connection to VA. Any other thoughts on them. I mean maybe it is a little PR but I dont even care.
It comes with all the extra scenarios from the second century addon pack plus 12 more and the strategy guide in html form. Essentially, its just package deal with a little extra. Got that from Poptop's site. The second century is not the game itself, just an addition to it. I think that might have confused you a little.
This game has been out for a while now. Not the gold version but still. It has been reviewed by every game site and I have never seen a low rating or even an average rationg. I think it got strategy game of the year for strategy games+ magazine (something like that). Anyway, if you are even remotly interested in railroads and strategy games it will not dissapoint you. Up close it looks like a model trainset, the graphics are just incredible. I heard they used model rr buildings to model the buildings in the game after. It was done to make things cheaper but things turned out even better. Anyway, just a very good progression on the original and if any game is a representation of a "good" game, this is it.
The current binaries do not support for smp boxes. Anyone know why and will this continue? Hopefully and probably not but just seeing if anyone else has an answer.
So who owns that land. What is they someday discover huge oil reserves or anything valuable. I wouldnt mind picking up some cheap property there. Seriously, whats the deal with it. Does anyone own it, control it or what. I know there are scientist from all over the world there but other than that...
Linux would be nothing if it wasnt open source. Linus could have never done this by his own no matter what people say. Because it is open source and because he had some help, linux is what it is today and for no other reason.
You are right about the drugwar and HIV. Once VR comes up to speed and we all know I'm not talking about the way it is now but more Matrix like. I think we will hit a point when the machines do most of the hard labor and then what is left. Then you have all these 3rd world countries that we can't just forget about. The 21st century is going to be a scary place. It is very uncertain which way we are going. I'm not worried so much for myself but for everyone else. Where are all the massive jobs going to come from. Think about it, the more we innovate the more workers we are replacing. That's what it's all about. When do we hit the point of no one working anymore and what happens there. Are we supported by what we have created and please ourselves all day or do the few in power not care and push the rest of us into some sort of 3rd world state. Well, this comment is going nowhere fast but I'm not so sure I'm looking forward to the future.
OpenBSD usually requires a little more unix knowledge than linux. I find it a lot easier to install open/netBSD. If you know whats going on, then the install is really nice and doesnt get in the way. If you don't, they don't care just like linus doesnt care about the install. Someone else has to "fix" it.
I could not stop laughing as I was reading this article. I know I wasn't the only one. Personly, I dont care how hard it is for newbies to install linux. Most couldnt install windows either. Things he said I found incredibly funny. The part where he said he hit alt-f8 furing the install and all this code flew by. I was laughing my ass off. Parts like when the kernels were going by and how he lied to it and it still worked. Did anyone else find it as funny as I did? I felt sorry for the guy I guess, but it is still pretty funny...
Contrary to popular belief, SCSI is not much faster at all than EIDE. Here is an article from, uh, zdnet. Anyway, from what I can see, it is a pretty good article. Also, u2w with only one drive is not going to be any faster than uw. Though the bus can do 80mb/s, most scsi drives do about 13mb/s. About as fast as eide. There are faster scsi drives, but not much faster. It doesn't eat processor cycles like ide though. Prove me wrong, but read the article first...
2.4ghz is an unlicensed band being used by everything from wireless video(x10 stuff) to to those new 2.4ghz phones. Bluetooth(the new laptop tech to replace irda) also uses 2.4ghz. As someone else pointed out, so do microwave ovens, one of the big reasons it is unlicensed. You will start to see a lot more products using 2.4ghz, 1) because of the the number of open frequencies and 2) because of the range. The french werent very smart when they chose that frequency range because a leaky microwave causes hell to these devices.
They are saying it is supposed to hit here so we set it up in the window. The police has kicked us all out but the cam will be up until the power goes out.
I mean, it wanted a username/passwd and the os is in rom (I assume). So, if the l/p is the same for all dreamcasts and you can get in and do things, who knows what, to them, then this can't be a good thing. If the passwd gets out, kinda like the cisco problem where there was a second default passwd, then all people using dreamcast can be "hacked". Maybe it's just me, I don't know, but I know I don't like the idea of someone being able to telnet in...

This has been MS's worst year by far. Bill gave the most money this year. Hm...

Of course it's a redirect, why would netbus be open. Think about it, it's obvious what's going on.

Take a look at the page now, top-right corner of the text and you will see it. Ha, thats funny...
