So if I figure out the chords to a song, could that be legally construed as decrypting some publisher's IP? I listen to the song, and reverse engineer it so that I can duplicate it.......... IANAL but I could imagine some scenario where an over-the-top executive decided to go after those chord pirates!
What linux are you using? I'm running an old version of demudi (for the 2.4 RT kernel) but will soon upgrade and am looking for recommendations from someone actually using it....
My wife has some at home. Before we try anything we will be talking to the doctor regarding any potential interactions - she also gets diazapam and prozac and has an intrathecal baclofen pump in her abdomen ( this hockey - puck sized unit puts 120 mcg of baclofen into her spinal fluid -- bypassing the blood-brain barrier -- if she had to take the stuff orally, to get that amount past the barrier would take about a dump truck full and trash her other organs)
I think the CR must mean controlled release, and as we have to give her meds through a G-tube, we need to either get them in liquid form or grind them, so most time-release stuff doesn't work as planned.
Thanks for the link. I agree with your assessment of the site. I was able to get a little more info thanks to your digging. I'm not at all sure if this will work for my daughter, but when you have no diagnosis and no prognosis you tend to grasp at anything that might offer help.
My eldest child has an undiagnosed condition that has left her unable to walk, talk, move, eat etc. The condition developed gradually and doctors say that the problem seems to be in the brain stem. I gather that GABA affects the working of the brain stem.
Does anyone have a link to the actual paper, or more info on this? I hesitate to grind up an Ambien and put it in her G-tube, but even the thought of something that might help her brings tears to my eyes as I write this. You have no idea what it is like to watch your child essentially disintegrate right before your eyes -- it's been 18 years of torture.
I've set up a few machines with AGNULA, and it worked quite well - a fully operating system with a low latency kernel and and all the audio apps set up in under an hour...
Ardour is a VERY pwerful piece of software, and is getting close to 1.0. I have done a number of songs using ardour jack and hydrogen
Wasn't the GEM graphic environment also a Kildall project? I remember using it for desktop publishing way back in the (pre Windoze) day. Pretty slow on a 8086, but it ran well enough to work for my purposes then.....
You could also think of Red Hat as a "gateway drug", a corporate-friendly, safe Linux choice.
This alone opens alot of doors for the Debian, Slack and Gentoos of the world. Eventually
I use Red Hat at work cause that's the most "corporate" and visible and hence the easist choice for the People who Sign the Checks. Plus other vendors we use recommend it.
I use Debian at home and would love to use it at work.
The fact that the applications I run will work on any distro is what will keep Red Hat from turning into an actual Microsoft
I have used and developed with Foxpro / Visual Foxpro for many years and was wondering if something like it would be available on Linux. I had figured I would have to combine a number of different products (Python, PostgreSQL etc ) but also really liked FoxPro's development environment.
From the blurb it sounds like this is eerily similar to FoxPro - dbf format, SQL queries, usable with a different back-end etc.
So the recount issue is back in the Florida Supreme Court's lap - that just means more $ for the lawyers.
I think there may be some surprises regarding Republican handling & marking of absentee ballots. The Miami mayor was tossed out on a similar issue a little while back. If the absentee ballots in the two counties are tossed, then Gore wins by thousands of votes.....
I've read and re-read the Dune series many times. I got the two prequels from the library because my "cash in on Dad's idea" detector was blaring loudly.....
That said, it was interesting to see details from the REAL Dune fleshed out. A fan of the series cannot help but hope to be able to enter that "world" again (due to the depth and richness of Frank Herbert's vision - especially the appendices that accompanied the original Dune). The bad part is that the writing just is not anywhere near as good as the original - much more like potboiler sci-fi ala L. Ron Hubbard.... yeesh
Bottom Line - I'll read whatever they put out. But I'll get it from the library.
The notion of patenting genetic info is kinda scary...
It's one thing to patent something new, something created based on specific application of knowledge, but I'm sorry, I think our Genome code is the property of the human race.
I would hate to have science handcuffed by some CFO's projections for the next quarter....
All the caveats are true, however, for many people just the knowledge of the gene sequence will be important.
I am the parent of a child who has lost the ability to walk and talk and care for herself over the last 12 years. After years of extensive testing, we still have no diagnosis. The ability to compare her DNA with "standard" listings may give us some answers.
For me, anything that advances our knowledge is a good thing.

Re: TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR FIRST before you try anything.
We have calls in to her regular doctor as well as her neurologist. Hey, we might be desperate, but we aren't crazy.....

I never thought it could happen..
Er... maybe it didn't
Not a waste at all if you have bad vision.

I hope they have deb's Real Soon....
Libranet 1.9.0
based on Debian potato
XFree86 4.0.2, ReiserFS, KDE2.1.1, XimianGnome1.2 out of the box
That might be the answer to your problem...

I think you could make a strong case that meditation practice could be viewed as hacking our own personal operating system...
Also funny to look back on everything they all get wrong.....
I'm gonna check this out.

It sounds like a good book I just get a little worried when the "novice user" ends up marrying the author!
You mean they didn't honor Al Gore for inventing the internet?
Its great to see Woz honored, but is this only about hardware? Where are the software honorees?
