step one: connect digital out to md in, or if they prevent that, analog out to md in. step two: press record step three: press play on windows media player.
you could do the same with an archos jukebox, and then upload from the jukebox to the hard drive. line to line analog sounds fine, it's not a big loss in quality
protection implies some sort of harm. So far no company has been able to demonstrate harm from filesharing. As the summary points out, people still go see movies and buy dvds. CD sales are down, but that is more readily explained by the 18$ price tag. Until someone can demonstrate that filesharing, and not ridiculous pricing or Clear Channel, is destroying an industry, they aren't deserving of this level of "protection."
Good thing there's no partisanship here! KDE and GNOME are both fine interfaces. kde has always been slightly ahead of GNOME, and has a more consistant user interface. I use GNOME because I always have, and the range of apps seems larger. It's really a judgement call.
Gnome at least has language selection in its logon screen, kde might have something similar.
why is it whenever there's a thread about new cell phones, the first thing I always see is americans bitching about how they just want to talk? Duh, if you just want to talk on your cell phone, just get a 5year old used nokia, that'll work fine.
for the rest of us who actually embrace new technology, I want a color display, ir for palm pilot syncing, fast sms capability, gprs for data transfer and fast web service.
I don't understand the reluctance for people on slashdot, a site devoted to the latest computer hardware and software, to get into sweet cellphones. It's like everyone's running around with linux laptops looking for free 802.11 nets, enjoying their massive storage mp3 or md player, developing new cool software, and talking on three pound analog cell phones from the late 80s. why is this?
my theory is that people are just jealous of the phones that everyone else in the world can get, and so they get defensive and pretend they don't want any of that. It sucks for america to be behind in some cases, huh?
seriously. my girlfriend finally got a cell phone, and she and I trade text messages back and forth all the time. anyone who complains about text entry either doesn't have t9 or is an old crumudgeon. 9 keys is fine.
so what's the point of running ext3 in writeback if (as the faq says) it's exactly equivalent to ext2 "with a very fast fsck"? So is the _only_ gain the fsck time?
this is DANGEROUS. A lot of electronics are not rated to run at 120V, and don't have compensation circuitry. In other words, they will simply run hot until they die. this is true esp of small stuff like MD players and recorders. buy a converter, they are cheap.
most of the world uses 1800/900 GSM, you just have to find a phone (marketed abroad as "world phones") that also work on the 1900 GSM system -- the US version. www.gsmarena.com has a bunch.
except now the entire rest of the world -- asia, europe, australia, have better phone systems than the US. So while individual countries may be small, the sum is a much much larger landmass with much much better phones.
the user doesn't know that the debugger is a separate program any more than multiple browser windows or the mozilla mail program is separate. it's part of the mozilla suite, so they are all together. Quit always quits out of the whole suite, close closes the current window. your approach assumes the users thinks of the debugger as a separate program, which it isn't.
the evidence is their total lack of objectivity. when mozilla and netscape are faster than IE they call it "strange." When mozilla doesn't conform to ie's broken renderring and self-invented standards, they call it "incompatible." They assume that IE is the standard, rather than the w3c.
oh wow. I thought the joke was that "metacity" was pronounced EXACTLY like "opacity." I hadn't even considered that he was talking about syllable stress. oops
amen to this. The playlist dialogs are awful awful awful. The MRL concept is totally overwrought for a media player. And worst of all, the dvdnav plugin doesn't deal with the playlist, so if you want to skip forward a chapter you DO NOT push the ->| button, because then it will go to some weird menu. ugh.
I once called a tech support line for a (now defunct) DSL service. The woman I reached was incredibly knowledgable, friendly, and helpful. I'm thinking now that it would be cool to make a web page with a list of great tech support reps, with extension numbers. Then, someone could look up the list, and call someone who is _good_.
Obviously this would present problems with the suddenly immense call volumes these people would get, but I'm ignoring that for now:).

stick in a cronjob. you can also add --delete if you want. it's basic, but easy.

yeah minidisc is big everywhere except the US, where portable mp3 players won out. pity really.
you can also really fuck things up this way. be _careful_, and just remember, if you're getting 18m/s already, don't screw around, it's fine.
I think they are all trailers
third page? screenshots? where are people looking?

-1, didn't read article.
the whole point was that kids go to baangs to play games, and it's not a solitary experience. being with other people is where it's at.

that's not entirely clear from the press release, I was confused too. Can someone clarify for sure?

correct. with anamorphic dvds and hdtv, pixels are not square.

right. remember godzilla 98? remember how heavily that was advertised? remember when it BOMBED COMPLETELY?

microsoft.com, ah, seems to not be responding. Anyone have a mirror?
