Not to belittle your point in the slightest, patching the kernel is a pain in the a$$; however, to base you decision solely on the amount of work it requires seems a little silly. And you must admit, in some ways, patching your kernel is easier than installing 98 and creating a dual boot machine.
Besides, I've found that if you don't build your own kernel with Red Hat, the performance loss is noticeable.
For those who say, go to vorbis, might this focus the RIAA to not only attack vorbis but also opensource as a whole? It seems to me that it may open the door to some nasty issues.
I can see people converting stuff over to vorbis if it saves them money, (too bad I just bought a mp3 cd player though.)
People aren't going to like the idea of paying for a music player. But the clever thing about this, is, to convert from mp3 to vorbis, you have to have a decoder.
Although rarely, when doing tech support, a floppy can be invaluable. I remember one case where I was wiping a bunch of hard drives from systems before they went to Portland Public Schools. I made a boot disk that formatted so that all I had to do was plug in the box, wait about a minute, pull it out and go to the next one.
Also I've had cases were I needed to use a floppy with a tool that M$ had on their site to repair the registry of several machines. It wasn't that they couldn't boot, but that when they tried to reach windows the machine would hang.
At my company, no project starts without someone going through an writing up a memo with a list of all the tasks that need to be accomplished, and who's working on them. Now this document isn't put on the webserver and left alone, it is constantly updated to reflect changes; people ahead/behind schedule, new tasks, ect. Every new version is published, in pdf form, on the webserver, so that anyone can see what goals need to be met.
For each of the tasks that is non-trival the programmer doing that task creates a spec for it so that we can reuse items (if there is a similar spec on the webserver) and that everyone knows how their portion of the project should run.
Also, we have a perfect project bonus. If you get a complete project done, on time only (becuase if you mis-estimate, you cost the company money, even if it such that you get things done faster than you said,) you get a 5x to the regular bonus for new products. This motivates the project leaders, and their programmers fairly well.
With this, it is required that each programmer have a measure of flexablity in how they get their portion done, typically we create a suite of tools and then glue the suite together with a controling program (it is the project leader's job to make that program, as they should know what each of the parts do.)
When I'm not working, I have hit the same problem with some opensource software I'm writing. I have taken it upon myself, as the other person cannot help much, to write everything my self. I've decided to do it that way, so that I know the code is correct and in the same style.
Sometimes you have to do it all yourself, but if you are paying someone to write code, then they better be doing what you are paying them for.
The fact is, even the latest versions of Netscape and Opera lag behind IE in basic interpretation of HTML.... In order for a standards-compliant internet to work, browser and WYSIWYG editor developers need to make their products effective enough to be competitive.
Bud, you seem to be mistaken. First, IE is not "ahead" in it's interpretation of html. The "nuisances" you speak of are from following this guide. Also, what is this about WYSIWYG editors? I have yet to see one write html code correctly for a non-trivial webpage/site. Oh and as for "obviously flawed," how many service packs have there been to Netscape for security holes?
Frankly, it is the job of the person who is writing the html to have their code correct, and follow the wc3 standard and that their page looks correct in most web-browsers. Most people would rather use a WYSIWYG editor, look at it in IE and call it good. How is it the fault of the web browser if you don't follow the standard just becuase it looks alright in IE?

Unless you have somekind of leak the water should stay in the tubes, kind of like your car. The only time you have to add water is when some has leaked out. Also, if you read the guide, it explains if you do not use distilled (pure) water you're taking your computer's life in your hands if a leak does develop. Pure water does not conduct, where as tap water can.
Didn't some software genuis say, that if we made cars like we make software, they would cost $20 and go 1000 miles to the gallon?
I believe the response was that if we made cars like we make software; we'd expect the car to crash twice a day, and to troubleshoot we'd ask the owner to remove and re-install the engine.
I never ment to understate how important it is to also try what you learn, but with relation to this article, a book is always a version behind, and never quite right. Where as the user contibutions on the php site can give you real insight to how the code works and how you might use it.
And I'll say it again. The best way to learn php is through the php website. Go through all the documentation. You will learn more about what actually works and what doesn't than what a book can tell you. A book is always about a version behind PHP, and so learn it through the website.
That's how I learned php 3 years ago, and well, I'm better with php than most.
My question is, why haven't they done this with like the onstar system. Or have they? It would seem to me, that if you wanted to make the most money, you'd offer these units for cheap, use their data to find where problem areas were, and charge a monthly fee (of let's say 10 dollars) for traffic data.
If the onstar unit was cheap enough (less than 100) and it offered data that would allow most people to get to work on time, I can't see why people wouldn't find them a invaluable.
Well, we have seen valve put in code with Counterstrike 1.4 that checks to see if your opengl.dll is correct, to stop people with cheats like OGC. However, this sucks for all those using wine, becuase wine uses a hacked version of opengl to run windows games in linux. I've been cs free for about a month now, as a result.
The real irony is, wine will not load cheats (as far as I can tell), so people using wine cannot cheat. I had a similar issue with Cheating-Death.
This is interesting, becuase I've had just about the same experience. I found a hack to show what I'm writing so that I improved my griffiti so I have never had the first problem. I have had the second problem, mainly after installing apps that work both on color and black and white palms. Remember, hard resets suck, so backup early and often.
As a student I'm all for this; I like star office (well right now I have open office) better than the M$ stuff.
But sun isn't doing this out the kindness of their hearts. The idea is if student use their product from k-college then when they get into business they will buy full versions for companies. Apple tried something similar, but it never quite took hold. Also, becuase StarOffice is able to save as M$ formats, but M$ cannot read StarOffice format (atleast last I checked), well it seems to say that M$ does not have to worry about Sun, yet, but Sun has to worry about M$.
If sun is successful; we'll be seeing businesses switch to StarOffice, just as soon as the kids grow up. Does this mean that Sun thinks StarOffice will still be around in 20 years? Sure seems like it.

As I understand it, yes. But when you do, I'll know when you start listening, and I (if I were some business or government agency) could inform the proper people to go after you.
This, from what I understand from the sources listed on the website given, is supposedly a "feature" of the software. The universe it's self checks the order of the cards, and if it's wrong destroys it's self. Thus you only have one correct universe, and it's the only one left standing.

To rip from mp3 to ogg, don't you need a decoder? and thus a licence?

Use this site for learning php. The manual is quite helpful.
Snaple has a machine that can help you out. it doesn't drop the bottle to the bottom, it uses a moving shelf to safely move the glass bottle.
the issue is, rh7.4 will have gnome2, so it would be wise to have gnome2 support before rh7.4 comes out.
I have a friend who installed the snapshots without too much trouble. He says it runs great.
With RH 7.4 in beta now, ximian needs to get in gear.

To wear a cup, for those ogc'ers who have their aimbot set on crotch.
Actually valve is aware of the problem, they have a fix if you pay for winex. But if you're a poor college student like me, you're up the creek.
You might look below, it's an issue with the opengl32.dll being hacked to run in linux.
Apparently if you pay for winex 2.1 it has a fix. But that fix is not on the cvs. What we get for being cheap I guess.
Well, we have seen valve put in code with Counterstrike 1.4 that checks to see if your opengl.dll is correct, to stop people with cheats like OGC. However, this sucks for all those using wine, becuase wine uses a hacked version of opengl to run windows games in linux. I've been cs free for about a month now, as a result.

Perhaps you should check out my sources before going off on me.
I only know what I've read, and that is documented; if my sources are wrong, yell at them, not me.
