"Killer App" is right, they arent going to take off until there is one.
IMO the killer app for IPv6 is going to be Mobile Phones. I've heard that the next generation phones are going to be IPv6 based using IPv6 Mobility. If this happens, there will be a good reason for people to use IPv6.
For something like mobile phones, IPv6 is really needed - there just arent enough IPs with IPv4 to assign every mobile a unique IP (and mobility typically needs multiple IPs anyway)
This can only be countered with...

Ah yeah, here we go again! Damn! This is some funky shit that I be laying down on your ass. This one goes out to all my homey's working in the field of evolutionary science. Check it!
Fuck the damn creationists, those bunch of dumb-ass bitches, Every time I think of them my trigger finger itches. They want to have their bullshit, taught in public class, Stephen J. Gould should put his foot right up their ass. Noah and his ark, Adam and his Eve, Straight up fairy stories even children don't believe. I'm not saying there's no god, that's not for me to say, All I'm saying is the Earth was not made in a day.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck the Creationists.
Break it down. Ah damn, this is a funky jam! I'm about ready to kick this bitch back in. Check it.
Fuck the damn creationists I say it with authority, Because kicking their punk asses be me paramount priority. Them whack-ass bitches say, "evolution's just a theory", They best step off, them brainless fools, I'll give them cause to fear me. The cosmos is expanding every second, every day, but their minds are shrinking as they close their eyes and pray. They call their bullshit science like the word could give them cred, If them bitches be scientists then cap me in the head.
Bass! Bring that shit in! Ah yeah, that's right, fuck them all motherfuckers. Fucking punk ass creationists trying to set scientific thought back 400 years. Fuck that! If them superstitious motherfuckers want to have that kind of party, I'm going to put my dick in the mashed potatoes. Fucking creationists. Fuck them.
Firebird and Thunderbird were strangely shaped Lead and Bass guitars made by Gibson during the 60s. Perhaps they're going to name the IRC client 'Pearl' and form a band.
The definition of "piracy" you gave included "1. The act or crime of a pirate.". If you look in the same Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary:
From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Pirate \Pi"rate\, n. [L. pirata, Gr. ?, fr. ? to attempt,
undertake, from making attempts or attacks on ships, ? an
attempt, trial; akin to E. peril: cf. F. pirate. See
{Peril}.]
1. A robber on the high seas; one who by open violence takes
the property of another on the high seas; especially, one
who makes it his business to cruise for robbery or
plunder; a freebooter on the seas; also, one who steals in
a harbor.
2. An armed ship or vessel which sails without a legal
commission, for the purpose of plundering other vessels on
the high seas.
3. One who infringes the law of copyright, or publishes the
work of an author without permission.
Actually, one of the advantages is that on modern machines you can run the game with thousands of monsters and its still fairly playable. It runs rather slow in places on my 1.4Ghz Athlon; I dont like to even think how slow the same thing would be if done in something like Quake.
You might be surprised. I was never much of a fantasy fan before, but after I saw the FOTR movie i was inspired enough to read all the books, and I loved them all:)
Helms deep is a huge battle in The Lord of the Rings between Saruman's Uruk-hai warriors and the people of Rohan. If you saw The Two Towers, thats the big battle in it.
Monopolies are only bad when they're abusive monopolies. If google was the only search engine around and wasnt making any kind of improvements to itself that might be justified, but past experience has shown that google is constantly trying to improve itself and come up with new innovative search techniques and features. So I dont think we have much to worry about:)
You seem to have confused the meaning here. "free as in speech" and "free as in beer" are used to distinguish between the two meanings of the word in the English language (other languages like French have words for these concepts which distinguish them - eg. liberty vs. gratis). The point of Free Software is that the users of software, not the developers, have freedoms.
Now that we have User Mode Linux that can run in User Space, would it be possible to get it to compile and run in CygWin? Then people could run Linux in their existing Windows system.
Good riddance I say. MS-DOS was intended only to be a stopgap until Xenix was completed but unfortunately that never happened. Its a shame that a version of the braindead DOS command line lives on in modern versions of Windows and hasnt been replaced with something closer to what Unix has.

Basically this means that the shared source license is "viral", like the GPL and exactly what Microsoft have been criticising for the past year or so.

Remember Ximian? They used to be called "Helix Code" before they found out they couldnt trademark the name.
So I'm guessing not.

Come on, Mozilla developers! 2000 is rapidly approaching! Isnt it about time you got it 2000-compliant?

You are correct. The Helms Deep wad uses the ZDoom engine, one of the added features of which is the ability to adde sloping floors and ceilings.
Legacy has a different scripting system to ZDoom so the helms deep wad wouldnt run under it. You could probably try ZDoomGL, though.

This is kind of ironic conisdering the recent newsforge article, "Mandrake: Rumors of our imminent demise are just that".

Just an evil thought I had.

Is RMS going to write to the Madhya State officials and complain that they called it "Linux" and not "GNU/Linux" now?

World Tech Tribune had a rather hilarious FUD article covering this several days ago.
It should be pointed out that if this library uses software patents which charge royalties it is technically NOT Free Software.
