If I look at code from the Linux source and then produce my own version with out using any of the Linux source, I have not violated the GPL, but my code is based in part on the linux code. This falls within fair use.
Thats a nice reference to Isaac Asimov. I can't remember the name of the short story, but in it the long line of super computers used by man is asked a question over and over. The question boils down to is there a way to beat entropy. The computer always responds that there is not enough information. Then after the last human essense joins with the Universal computer, it continues to process the, until then, unanswerable question. It then produces the answer with the line "Let there be light", reproducing creation.
As far as they have stated, and anyone has been able to prove they are not using GPL software. They don't have to release anything. They are releasing this bit of code so people will see they are not violating the GPL. Your postings usually get modded up to the 4 or 5 range, so I'm a little shocked that you didn't actually read the press release, or if you did you weren't paying attention. The press release pretty much paints the picture for you. It doesn't settle the issue, but it does not say what you think it does.
Thanks to a redesign of Win2k's and XP's command line capabilities it can do alot of things that you can do in the GUI enviroment. You can install printers, do backups, manage disks, create and modify user accounts, start and kill processes. All from the new and improved NT command line. Here is a quick link to something someone might find interesting. If it is a program that does not have a command line interface, well then you are shit out of luck.
Disney and other media groups usually lobby the Democrats pretty hard, compared to what they do for the Republicans. However, the Supreme court ruled that the act of extending the copyright was not unconstitutional. Which by reading the constitution it is not. Was the extension wrong? Yes. Illegal? No.
the largest EXEs are the install programs for Counter Strike and Tactical Ops. The largest EXE that has anything to do with Windows is USER.EXE and weighs in at 537K. Just to let you know.
This would be best for 7th or 8th graders and above, or anyone who has done science on angles of reflection. You go through the whole spiel and then as a demonstration you show how it works by using water and a laser beam.
Step 1) Find a laser that you can use for this demonstration.
Step 2) Shine the laser beam through the bottom of an empty two liter bottle. Mark it and burn a hole through the bottle one side. (One hole in the bottle not two)
Step 3) Cover the hole, fill with water, cap the bottle, remove plug.
Step 4) Shine laser beam so it passes through the bottle, then the water, and then the hole. Uncap the bottle.
The laser beam should follow the stream of water from bottle. So there it is, a simple demonstration of total internal reflection like in a fiber optic cable.
is a shitty place to campaign. No powerful magic to cast. However the new trilogy that is coming out is awesome. It is the War of Souls trilogy. You can find it at B&N or Amazon. Its by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman
We should round up the people that wrote this virus and beat them, but we should also gather the people who did not apply the patch last year. Those people should be tought the preventive measures they should do on their systems. A little bit of preventive action on the users part and this would be a non-issue.
command line in Win2k and WinXP. They have made it so that most of what you can do from the GUI you can do from the CLI. Here is a link about some of the things you can do from the command line. These are just search results so they are not all applicable. Some of what is said are included with Windows while other can be downloaded from MS.
way back when. A "standard novel" in plain text and an 8pt font was usually considered to be about 1MB worth of data. I don't know if it really is a MB worth of data but I've seen that type of comparison made before. So having 1000 novel/s is only a GB/s, however a DVD/s would be somewhere between 9-18GB/s, depending on if one or two sided.
I can't wait for SeaLab 2021 though. The funnies part of the whole show is during the end credits. I really enjoyed the time travel episode where the alternate Quinn's were forced to fight gladiator style.
Justice League is also really well done, however there werent enough episodes made for an initial run.
Well I can't wait till they start showing the new episodes.
And thats exactly why they used it for the title.

Collateral Damage
·
· Score: 1
To the terrorists in this movie anything that got destroyed that was not a specific target is collateral damage. However, to the hero it wasn't collateral damage, it was his family.
I think it actually a fairly good title. It has a subtle subtext that some people might not catch.
As I remember it met the standard, however it allowed the programmer to use Windows only features. So if the programmer used the Window's only features the program became non-compliant. MS-Java would still run other java compliant programs, and if you followed the java standard, what you wrote could be run on any other JVM.
They don't take rights away from anyone else. The original code would still be public domain. You could still access it and do with it as you pleased. Your User# is pretty low, I figured you would at least be able to see the obviousness of the above.
to Xenix. Its actually a nice piece of software. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find any copies lately. I remember having my twelve shells mapped to F1 through F12. Microsoft can actually produce some good code.
As long as what you write isn't libel. However, libel is a tricky thing. You would have to be careful about what you portray as facts and what you say is opinion. But then again IANAL.(Thats the first time I have used the IANA* disclaimer)
What the blurb is saying is that the JIT, or whatever, that has the microsoft "extensions" is on that CD. Due to the court order they can not manufacture that same CD. So instead of compiling a new Win95 CD so late in the game, they let supplies run out and are dropping support. But then again how hard could it be to compile a new one and have 100,000 copies made?
What does it not do properly? Does it give access to restricted files to everyone? Does it allow students to save to protected drives? What does it do wrong? You say it doesn't work but you don't say whats wrong.

I have the book somewhere around here, I just couldn't find it in time to make any use of it

The stuff about the 8pt font was meant for the size of the text inside the novel. Just thought I would clarify, sorry about the confusion.
way back when. A "standard novel" in plain text and an 8pt font was usually considered to be about 1MB worth of data. I don't know if it really is a MB worth of data but I've seen that type of comparison made before.

Which probably won't fly real well with the developers.
Not GPL, not BSD, Public Domain. Just like it is done in science.
So who do you work for? It sounds like a good place to land a job.
to Xenix. Its actually a nice piece of software. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find any copies lately. I remember having my twelve shells mapped to F1 through F12. Microsoft can actually produce some good code.

as long as the kiddies do what they are supposed to do. Sounds like your school suffers from user stupidity instead of a bad network setup.
