  1. Re:I have a question for Americans.. on Censorship In China · · Score: 1

    China sells neat toys.
    I've just heard bad things about Cuba.

  2. ? on Free Realtime Video Editing for Linux · · Score: 1

    Linux 2.2.*
    1 terabyte striped RAID
    1Ghz quartathlon (5Ghz per Athlon recommended.)
    BT848, BT878 compatible video card No hardware compression boards are supported, due to high cost and unemployment.
    Full duplex sound card
    1024x768 32bpp graphics card on AGP
    Commercial OSS driver (better card compatibility)

    For such a specialized system, does it not make sense to anyone other than me that every search engine i tried came up with 0 hits for "quartalthon," this is fruther compounded by the fact that I haven't seen a 5ghz althon. On top of the fact that this hardware list seems awfully simple. The last time i checked a terrabyte of managed raid storage was ~$250k or so. I would think if you were in the market for that much disk, you could afford the pro software to go with it.

    One would think in todays modern society that space and space research would be at the forefront of technological advance and funding. What happened to ALF?

  5. Microsoft Open Source on Gates: "Linux will have Limited Impact" · · Score: 1

    However involved or entrenched the DOJ becomes in the workings and operation of the Microsoft conglomerate, their product will never become "Open Sourced" in the way we understand open source. It will never actually hit the public or private consumer. The only way anyone will ever see that code is in corporate enterprise environments, giant contracts, and vendor markets. It will be opened to them in a VERY controlled environment for internal debugging purposes. There is simply too much code and too much at stake for anyone other than them to have stake in the development of an operating system. It wouldn't provide any value add to the general public and the task of mulling through millions of lines of code would take years. I don't see this happening any time soon.
