  1. DjVu libre link on Slashback: Alternatives, Ads, Apple · · Score: 1, Redundant

    A link to DjVu libre wouldn't have hurt. Here it is: http://djvu.sourceforge.net/

  2. Re:Um, NO! on Satellite Back From The Dead · · Score: 1


    Do a freshmeat search for "predict" - It's an excellent satellite position prediction package for Linux.


    "Predict" can be found at

    ftp://ftp.amsat.org/amsat/software/Linux/predict -l atest.tar.gz

  3. similar book for CS people? on Bioinformatics · · Score: 1

    This book seems to be tailored for people coming from biology. Does somebody know a good book about the topic more suited for CS people?

  4. only one problem.... on Perpetual PDA Power? Possibly. · · Score: 2

    ... how many geeks do ever see sunlight?

  5. porn vs. violence on Yahoo! To Start Selling Porn · · Score: 2

    It is interesting how hysterical Americans get as soon as the word porn appears somewhere. Violence on the other hand seems to be perfectly o.k. For example, Yahoo is selling "From Dusk Till Dawn", no problem it seems.

    Naked skin (which is part of everybody's live) vs. slaughtering humans...

    Very interesting this understanding of moral.

  6. Re:What a piece of sh** gadget! on Reverse-Engineering The Creative Nomad Jukebox · · Score: 3

    Does anybody have a recommendation for a similar product without all those shortcommings?

    Check out the Personal MP3 Jukebox, for example on thinkgeek : http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/things/3474.html

  7. Re:Linux returning to its roots on Turbolinux Layoffs · · Score: 1

    ...Suse shuts down American operations...

    If you read yesterday's posting about SuSE a little more careful then you see that they are not shutting down their american operations. They do downsize it (from 45 down to 15 employes according to SuSE's webpage). The northamerican market is still an important one for SuSE.

  8. Re:I would keep it simple. on Technologies Available For Use In Distance Learning? · · Score: 2

    The web based discussion forum can be done with a news-server (e.g., inn). I set up different private news-groups in the past (for discussions while doing group-homeworks and group-projects). I made very good experience with it and my class-mates liked it.
