In the french version of the page it is a little bit more clear: "En raison de l'adoption de la loi DADVSI, OVH nous demande de retirer les liens BitTorrent, bien qu'ils soient légaux. Les liens suivants sont donc désactivés..." what could be translated in "Due to the French DADVSI law, OVH asked us to delete all BitTorrents links, although they are legal. The next links are then deactivated...". It is just OVH (a web hosting company) who has shit in their pants with the DADVSI law and asked every webmaster to delete BitTorrents links legal or not:( DADVSI is the French version of the DMCA but a little (not too much) lighter:/
It is what I imagine: each car retransmit to nearby cars his information of time, location and speed in real time. Then each receiver retransmit it to other in a peer to peer way. The value of the information is decreased with the distance and not retransmitted if it is too far away to be directly usable or too old. The distance could be in time to travel or as pure distance as the information 10km away is more valuable on a freeway than in a clogged town where information 10min away is more valuable.
Some question are open: - how to make car communicate? - at witch frequency the car send his information to others? - if every car broadcast received information to others, what kind of algorithm we can use to reduce the volume of informations? (for example if another car nearby (10m has already rebroadcasted the information we don't rebroadcast it) - What is too far away? - How to mitigate rogue emitter who send false information?
But I see some advantages of this kind of system: - Real time traffic data - No central agency that make you pay a hefty bill for outdated informations.
Actually the spam you receive in your chat windows is from a 'rogue' add-on (actually relatively easy to write), and the warden check for external programs and not for add-ons.
The big advantage of this method is that you have a fucking manual with color, graphics in a lovely little box and not just a stupid PDF to print yourself (if one at all) with your downloaded version. Call me old, but I like the box around the game as much as the game. I bought some nearly only for the box because I have found it beautiful or very interesting.
For the painstakingly copied manual, it was the cost of pirating. It is true that you where sole if you lose your manual, but in this case you have yourself to blame and copy another from a friend. But now you will be sole the day that steam will be down because valve closed his doors, and you can't just blame yourself.
I think it say well in a study sense and grades. Because all the money you need during your studies is the one to have a roof on your head and some spaghetti in your dish every day. You can do a lot of things if you don't (lose/loose) your time going to party with "friends", drinking beer with "friends" and running behind girls/boys whatever is your preference. All this time can be used to learn, learn what the teacher try to make you learn, learn much than the expectation of your teacher, learn new things that your teacher have no time to teach you or not the knowledge to do it. And all this time is a lot of time ! The only energy needed to make it is the energy to say NO to the people who try to divert you from studying and learning.
I play WoW since the Beta. I play 4 characters depending of witch of my brothers is online. I just got my main character to lvl 60 mid January this year (druid specialized in healing). I love the role-play part, helping other to finish quests, wandering to see interesting places... . But grinding is not my 'fun' part, first because I dislike grinding and second it is nearly impossible with my healer (A single mob of the same level as me kick out my ass). I got my mount at lvl 48 and not 40 because I haven't got enough gold to buy it and it is 'just' 100 gold. I am mostly equipped with lvl 50 green items I have dropped while I helped others. I haven't enough time to do raids dungeons multiple time to hope winning the interesting item, and certainly not enough gold to buy new ones. I repeat, the game is fun for me, but I cherish more and more and more the idea to buy some gold from a gold farmer...
In SWG I played a medic too, but the crafting part of the game made it more sustainable because with it I could make some good money to buy things and not grinding them. For me the grinding was in an other way, as it was to find 'THE' resource that I could use to make 'THE' best components I can or exchanging it for other components I need. But they changed some important rules in the game (not in the crafting part) making it no more interesting for me. SWG has the best crafting mechanics I ever see. And crafted item were better than dropped ones.
One thing that I'm wondering about is how IE7 handles a malformed XML document.
The question is: If having an XSL transformation working the same in the 2 browsers is difficult, why adding more complexity with malformed XML documents ? Only a broken implementation of an XML parser will support mal-formed XML documents...
It is my point of view. I am an XML wellformedness nazi from the simple fact that XML if for interchange of data. If you are lazy at the way you wrote/generate your XML files, the recipients of thoses files will have huge problems to read, interpret and extract useful information from them.
I am now rephrasing my question: Why wondering about how a system handle malformed documents (except by rejecting them) when there is no good reason to have malformed documents in the first place ?
Having a.cm tld is not typosquatting. Redirecting non existant url (finishing or not finishing with.cm) to an ad sponsored search page is typosquatting.
I am in the same boat as the grand-parent, WoW save me a lot of money. I have tried to stop playing WoW and started to do some interestings things with lego technics and robotics. I have put nearly 2000 in 1 month to have a good starting set of pieces. Now I have made some cool realisations, but for my next project I need next to 1000 more to buy some standards box and near the same amount in Ebay to buy some very specifics pieces... I have stopped it already and I have get back to WoW.
Actually I maintain a web site of an institution using HTML 4.01 strict and CSS 2.1. All my new pages pass the W3C validation for the HTML and the CSS. I get very good results with IE 6, NS 8.1, FF 1.5 and Lynx (for a pure text version) and that with and without javascript. But I have dropped the gauntlet with Opera. When something work with all the others browsers it doesn't work correctly in Opera and when I correct it in Opera, the display in all the others browser is broken...
I work for an institution who have set IE as his standard for their website. I try to have something working in a maximum of browsers. I try my best to make it work in a maximum of browsers but if it doesn't work correctly in opera, too bad for the Opera users. The next time, they will browse with a free browser:)
I don't consider myself a bad webmaster, but not as a top webmaster too. I think I am not too bad, but making web page display correctly in Opera and other browsers is for me out of my capabilities:/
My first computer was a ZX-81 too. Get It at 12 yo. My dad bought me a book with a lot of games to code like snake, hangout, pacman, nibble and a lot of others. fed up to loose against them, I learned to modify them to win each time:D. Then I wrote my own games and get in the 1k memory limit very fast. Assembly helped me a short time, but I got the 1k limit again. At 13 yo, I bought another book explaining the hadware of the ZX-81 and how to add a lot of thinkgs like more memory:), a phone dialer, a sound synthetizer. For me knowing how the hardware work and not just how to program on the hardware was a mind opener. After that, adding some eeprom with "graphics" library (line, square, circle...) was of great fun. Then came the 8086 PC and 128k memory, his EGA video card, and his 360k 5"1/4 floppy disk:) A start in a new area.
Yes, no problem... In a Duke Nukem Forever timeframe:D
There is no great needs to go to XHTML 1.1. A good HTML 4.01 + CSS is all you need and is the latest standard like XHTML 1.1. There is no competition between the two, they have each their plus and minus.
Slashdot doesn't work well. I get 100+ warning with tidy on nearly any slashdot page (except the post a comment page where I have 'only' 21 warnings). Yes I am an HTML purist like a lot of the bests C/C++ coder doesn't like ANY warning at the end of a compilation. I write web site for a pleasure and I absolutly don't like warnings or error because generaly that's the first signs of incompatibility on some web browsers.
Secondly we are not talking about fancy flash animation but CSS. CSS as nothing to do about fancy flash animations. CSS is good for people with disability who can modify it locally to adapt a site at their needs (think biggers fonts, adapt the page layout...). And CSS is the standard. HTML 3.2 is dead.
I stop here else I will use some explectative not to be read by young people:/
Right, and when video cards that supported an accelerated transform and lighting (i.e. the GeForce) came out, they didn't need that either since current games didn't support it. You can bet the next core of games will be multi-threaded.
Right and false, in the test DOOM III doesn't seems to benefit from the dual core, but Far Cary and UT seems to benefit from it.
The required strength of runways for the A380 is the same as the 787. It was one of the design requirement of the A380. If fact, where a 787 could land, an A380 can land.
In my experience a travel Brussels - Roma is quicker and cheaper by plane than by train. Cheaper by nearly 25% and quicker by 2 hours (waiting and checking at the airport not ommited).
No no no no. Not in France. In France you can make a copy of a media (CD/DVD/VHS/Tape/Whatever...) of a friend for a personal use. That is why we pay a tax on blank media (for example on a DVD we pay 0.3 Eur for the media and 1.3 Eur for the Tax).

Hum, I can boot linux on a single floppy and make it my firewall with all the needed utilities. For exemple with Coyote Linux...
