I was looking forward to this CPU. Now, I am really going to research this. This may flip me back to AMD. I didn't like when Intel did the tracking on the PIII and the sound of this makes me just as uncomfortable.
I have 12 of the same thing. 12 black cotton polo shirts 12 black bdu 1 pair of combat boots with a high polish shine to them. That is how I deal with the dress code
Tip: In order to keep black staying black longer, add one pack of black dye to every third wash load. Wash on warm and use cheer for darks.
Are we actually getting any data that is useful or is it just letting us know that it still there. The article never said if we are getting any data. I remember a few years ago reading that the signals from deep space are so dim that we just know it Voyager, but not what they are saying. If we are getting data that is one thing, but if all it is doing is saying "I'm still here, it's cold out here" then it may be time to let them go. The solor probe is one that should stay and running, it is giving data.
As Linux continues to grow in popularity, won't the spyware creeps be more likely to make spyware that works on Linux? I know what many of you are thinking, permissions, don't log in as Root, Root is god, blah blah blah... But as history has shown, spyware writers are very creative and just plain unethical. Just a thought people. Thank you.
I have read and seen on a show on the Discovery channel that no one burned to death. All the death except for the poor guy on the ground died because they jumped. If you look at the footage of the crash you can clearly see the skin is burning, not the hydrogen. The skin of the airship was coated with powered aluminum and iron oxide, which close to solid rocket fuel. The discovery channel demonstrated this by making an exact duplicate of the shin and the coating. When the test piece was touch to a small spark, POOF, up in flames.
First I will say that I am not as well versed on real world physics of antimatter as I should be, never seemed to be all that important. I know the cost would be out of this world for such a weapon, but wouldn't one benefit be little to no fall out? Just asking.
That's it! I am getting OUT of line! THREE YEARS FOR THIS!
This is what is wrong with this idea.

From the article "... whether the internet should be governed and, if so, how." With all the problems that go on in the UN why are they a better choice then the US. The article has some valid points, but the current system is pretty fair.
Let me say that I know he is wrong. I listen to him on Coast to Coast as entertainment, nothing more.
What I am asking is how would we, being the human race as a whole, react if this guy really had something? Every time I listen I can't help believe that he has one really good point. People would flip if there really was intelligent life other then on Earth.
I have gotten this a few times. I hit the reply button and tell them that as a sign of good faith to put five thousand in to my Paypal account. No five thousand yet. HHHMMM, their email must still be messed up because of the blaster worm.
Someone at that show knew exactly what kind of bait to put out. How many geeks who never thought of going to a show like that are sighning up right now to go to the next one, just to go to the BSD booth.
One serious question: after you have the geek at the booth, how do you switch thier mind from the bait to the product?
Every few weeks I read some story about how this idea is going to solve the last mile problem, then another story about how this will not work. Is this some type of tech urban legend along the lines of the USPS putting a tax on email.
Can someone please point me in a direction to the truth. 1) Will it work?
a) If yes, then what do we have to do?
b) If no, then what are the other options?
No, I ma not making a joke. Yesterday, Friday March 15 2003 I bought my new Soyo KT400 Dragon motherboard and a AMD 2600 Athlon with 333 bus. I have been cutting edge for 24 hours. I never will win.
On a more positive note, any body know of motherboards for these monsters yet?
How about this: a bike, stair stepper or tread mill is hooked up to a broadband connection. The amount of bandwidth that you get is in direct proportion to the exercise you put in. The faster you go the faster the download goes. If this had been around during the Napster years, I would weigh about 70 pounds less.
On Monday November 11, slashdot had a lovely posting about the new service. These caps would kill it right out of the box. If Movielink is for real, then the Hollwood studios may also fight against the caps as each rental was about 2GB.
Wasn't this one of things that the serial number in the PIII chips supposed to do? The public didn't like it to much and Intel included a way for the consumer to turn the serial number off. It will be interesting to see if people stand for this or has the public just gotten used to loosing its privacy.
I would like to say read a good book on the history of computers. My favorite is Computer: A history of the information machine, by Campbell, Kelly, and Aspray. Little dated, but still a good read. This is just my personal opinion, but I think it is a good idea to have a general understanding of how things got the way they are now.

Amen. That's all I have to say to that.
So, this is what twenty minutes into the future looks like.
I have 12 of the same thing.

Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity.

Just my two cents.

Just asking.
Is it just me or does this remind anyone of the good ol days of Napster? Sure looks like it to me.

How does the Slashdot community feel about this?

Well, I know where I am going to be for nine hours on the 16th. Thanks for the info.

to admit that you have sold your soul.

for 2 + 2 = 4.
...break into the Egyptian sewer system just like Geraldo Rivera did when he opened Al Capone's vaults and dug right into the Chicago sewer system.
