At the university where I work, we got a $100,000 grant from the USDA to upgrade our aging V-tel units to Tandberg systems a few years ago. If you want this done right, you'll need the right equipment, it's just that the equipment costs an arm and a leg and getting free money from the government helps. Also, perhaps going through a videoconferencing underdog like LifeSize could help get you going. I hear LifeSize is trying to get their foot in the door by providing sweet deals that undercut the likes of Cisco, Tandberg, and Polycom. Good luck!
But the guy's saying that at least Google developed the code for the highlighting. The guy is pointing out that at least that's more honorable than patenting something you didn't even develop.
I know most of you are like, "no, monopolies are teh suck," but in states with low-broadband deployment, it will encourage telephone companies to spend the money for DSL stations and repeaters. Telephone companies have been slow to provide the new DSL infrastructure because they feared that as soon as they'd do it, the competition will take their possible subscribers away, and the DSL infrastructure will have been installed at a loss to them. Sometimes, monopolies can be good as it's an incentive to get things done. I live in a rural part of Kentucky and though Lincoln County is better off than many other counties, this will incourage BellSouth and Verizon to invest in the DSL infrastructure. Sadly, we don't have cable TV (cable TV means eventual cable Internet) here either and no lines are coming out soon--the satellite providers have already taken their business.
Heh, well, didn't MacDraw save things as PICT? I always thought PICT was a good format. It was the most favored Mac image format for years, but then came along Mac OS X, mostly putting an end to PICT in favor of PDF.
From what I can tell, SVG is very much like PICT. Remember, PICT could have vector and non-vector components within the same file.

IRC On The PSP

I totally agree! I hate the PSP's keypad and I believe it would be a good idea if Sony allowed one to choose between a keyboard or the keypad. (An option in the System settings would be nice).
I guess they thought it would appeal more toward people who text message all the time. Though, it's not the same as using a phone since you have to navigate the cursor to the button with the letter or number you want. It's way more tedious and annoying than text messaging.
Ultimately, it's a shame the PSP doesn't have a touch screen... The NDS beats the PSP for data input any day. (Man, if it did have a touch screen, Nintendo would be fuct!)
Though, I have heard that there are keyboards in development. Oh boy, there will be some more crap to buy for the already expensive PSP.
Fine, G4 has bought TechTV, gutted it for the valuable parts, and now has thrown the carcass to the curb. We are now missing a computer/technology channel.
I suggest Slashdot TV or some other new channel! Slashdot offers a wide variety of computing and technology content. All that needs to be done now is just start a channel! I know it wouldn't be easy or cheap but damnit, we need this!
More power to ya! I really hate what's happened too, but I'll probably still watch XPlay and Icons... those two shows are the only good ones... they've ruined TSS.
I just thought of something, there should be a slashdot TV!
At the University of Kentucky ResNet, there have been DMCA complaints (filed by third party companies whose sole purpose is to snitch on fileswapers). The RIAA, until recently, hasn't filed any complaints with UK. Now over the past few weeks I've been seeing RIAA (probably around 30-40 thus far) complaints--wow, sucks to be those students and the complaints are over the stupidest songs. Anyway, the other day I started to see MPAA complaints in the list. This leads me to wonder if these persons are among the first wave of people to get sued by the MPAA.
Oh I'm glad I'm not among these students. It's funny though, most have no clue of what's going on, and one, upon being told he was blocked for a DMCA violation, said, "Well I don't know how--I pay for KaZaa."
I know some have already made the connection of the Star Trek : TOS episode and the arming of space, but this also reminds me of a particular episode of Stargate SG1 called "Absolute Power"
That's not too far away. I think I will wait for the 9th release because usually when I upgrade some of my extensions are out of date and I have to reinstall them. This usually turns out to be a mess.

It will be featured on the Big Bang Theory.

On an unrelated note, 79% of most Americans are retarded.
Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! We desperately need this... We Americans don't like paying $3/gallon for gas!

What is Yahoo?
I can handle a few more wireless technologies. My right hemisphere has room for a few more brain tumors.
Brilliant! That was hillarious! Too bad you couldn't scam the scammer, but he was falling for it.
They're red because they're ignorant! The internet will provide the necessary information to help them be more liberal. Think man, think! :P

Higher Standards.

Hmmm, In Starship Troopers I remember hearing, "Come on you apes, do you want to live forever?" I wonder why they changed it. Hmmmm....
Disney knows what they're doing! Each time they remake a movie, they make it better and better! Just like the fucking Freaky Friday movies!
To add to that, there are more theories other than Creationism and Evolution. Evolution isn't the only scientifically supported theory.

Heh. Heh. Alllllrrrriiigggghhhttt.
Yeah I-69 will come through Kentucky too and I say "No, people with nothing else better to do wouldn't steal them."
Actually part of the I-69 corridor exists in Indiana.
I wanna see someone use those flashable GBA carts used for porting it to the Nintendo DS!
WOW, maybe it'll be shaped like a pineapple!!!! One could live exactly like SpongeBob Square Pants!!!!

Okay whatever.
My Matrix parody, though, is true. Otherwise there wouldn't be much argument, would there?
