I totally agree. While I've always liked next gen, and voyager had its good episodes, DS9 was by far the most interesting cohesive story... Of course next gen barely bothered with that at all.
I have a customer who has complained on *3* separate occasions that they cannot email sales@randomdomain. When we inform them that they need to have a top level domain on there they *insist* it worked before.
After 3 or four emails/calls they finally get the point. Until a few weeks later when it starts again.
I emailed the "Editor on call..." as a subscriber I got to see this submission before it went live... And understand ENGLISH... So I emailed the editor to suggest they remove the direct link to the website... Well, you see the results.... I await their slashdotting.
I've been getting the 1.5Mbit/384k service for a couple years... I've been more than impressed... The only time my circuit has ever gone down (either than non-payment... oops!) was 9/11... And they had me back up (albeit slowly) in 1 day. And I'm in NYC...
Their customer service is supeerb and their policies are unmatched. I'd reccomend them to ANYONE.
JEsd includes an audio server, which corresponds to 'esd' and classes for communicating with 'esd', which corresponds to 'libesd'. This client side code will enable us to hack audio apps in pure Java. The audio server depends on Java Sound API. Of course, this audio server supports playing audio streams. So we can accept outputs from x11amp, xmms, etc,. in pure Java apps via network streams. Of course, this audio server supports caching, playing, looping samples. The audio server accepts Ogg Vorbis bit-streams via EsounD protocol and works as the Ogg Vorbis player. Tons of functionalities of EsounD are left to be implemented. JEsd is distributed under GNU LGPL.
Solves the problem indicated in the top of the article? It doesn't. I want all audio output from my windows box to use esd and talk to my linux box. This doesn't really solve the problem.
I hadn't come across that specific page, but I checked it out. This WinESD sounded promising, but the link wasn't on the Esound page anymore. I did a google for that, and come up with a single hit for a page in some asian character set. Found a link in there for WinESD but the site appears to be down or gone.
I believe the cygwin port of esound will only work for cygwin based applications. IE, not everything. The ideal thing (I think) is some sort of shim into DirectSound (I believe, I don't do any windows programming) that pipes to esd. However, I don't think this could be done without violating some sort of OSS law and thus having bad mojo... Or something to that effect.
One of our customers runs a rather large mailing list... Many of the people on that list are *@home.com. The other day when they sent out a mailing, my mail server's queue filled up with 900 messages to home.com, just sitting there because home.com's mail servers wouldn't connect.
It's cleared up now, but trying to get someone over there on the phone ended up being a worthless task.
I am in charge of UNIX Systems Admin & Assorted other stuff where I work (a large international ISP). However back when we were just 40 people I used to do some tech support when needed. I interviewed a bunch of the people who now do helpdesk before the helpdesk manager (who I also interviewed) was hired. I emailed her the link to this article and said that if helpdesk @ my company ever gets like this, I'll quit on general principal.
I was at linux world this week... While a lot of good stuff has come into the linux world recently I think it's rather sad to see RedHat there with this giant castle of a booth, while Slackware, which has been in it since the begining in this little shack of a booth...
However, all LINUX is, is the kernel... All the other packages aren't LINUX they are either GNU, or whatever... So really, nothing is being fragmented here, other than the bins that are included with the FreeBSD kernel.
When I was... 15 or so I was denied access to PC Expo in NYC... Sucked then, still sucks now. Although now I am 18... I can't see what legal issue there is with allowing under age people into these expos. The only issue I can see is that for the most part 18/and older is the group that makes the purchasing decisions for the companies the people at the expos are trying to sell their products to.
Personally, I *loved* Blair Witch... I will be seeing it a couple more times before it leaves the theater.
A friend of mine's sister (14 yrs old) saw it and didn't think it was in the least bit scary. She made the comment that it would have been a lot more scary if you had "seen the monster"...
I've noticed this trend a lot... Older people tend to "get" the movie more.
I'm not a big fan of carbonated drinks overall, but this stuff has SO MUCH caffine in it and so much sugar that I couldn't drink more than a couple sips... The bottle was pretty damn cool tho..

When I found this I didn't even bother posting it to xda for a couple days thinking it was so obvious that it had to be intentional/known.
Guess other people were in fact interested!

I'd agree with the sig... That post was hillarious.
If someone wants my karma, they can have it. :P
As a matter of fact, Belkin (I believe) already sells such a device... Its listed in the ipod accessories section of the apple website..
Speaking as someone who's used remedy, and tried to support a customized platform based around it.
STAY AWAY. STAY VERY FAR AWAY. Hire some college kids to code you a nice replacement in PHP or something.. You'll be happier.
Just my 2 cents.

I have 6 machines here *at home*, 5 of which are one form of unix or another, and 1 that is winxp. Damn, am I commiting such a crime here? ;)
If I'm not mistaken jesd is a java implementation of the ESD *server*. What I need is a client implementation for windows.

I'm not sure of the law, but who controls this island as far as laws?
