that the powers that be up at AOL dont try to get their paws in Winamp. Ive been using that program since my win 3.1 days and have watched it grow. If AOL was to start telling these people how to code it..... Just look at what happened to netscape when they got bought out. A good documentary about big biz mucking up good sw projects is on jamie zawinkis (sp?) page. he was one of the original developers at netscape and eventually left in disgust.
is the seperation of the Linux and BSD communities. In a very real sense, arent we all in the same war? promotion of our platforms as a viable alternative to Windows. I think there needs to be a movement out there to promote the *nix environment in general, particulary in reference to OSS based os'es. Perhaps some more OSS expo's...... im sure theres Unix expo's of some sort, but how about one tailored to the open source revolution...not just linux or bsd specificially...
these articles bashing napster with a huge grain of salt. I too have spoken to many independant as well as major label artists. People, they _HATE_ the record labels. They think napster is the coolest thing since sliced bread. Of course, they cant officially say that. Look, you want to interview a labels artist , and then have them speak bad about napster? Um, ok, guess what, you never get to interview one of those labels artists again . The almighty buck is at work here. Artists behind the scenes love napster, and the record labels loathe it. Chuck D said it best...dont believe the hype
there was some way to control the crash of Mir and then auction the old clunker off on ebay. Im sure some rich person wouldnt mind shelling out big bucks for a piece of space history.....
one of the biggest gripes Ive had about the open source community. The OSS community has developed quite a few large scale applications, and without the aid of proper planning and requirment collection. If a professional organization did this they would be eating ramen noodles in a few months. Ive always thought the OSS community needs some sort of standard for requirment collection. I for one, have so many ideas come into my head at once that i _need_ to document ideas and requirments. Now imagine that with what could literally be dozens to hundreds of people.
Yes, we can map every piece of information on the internet. We can also tell you what your favorite sites are. Now dont bother writing us telling how you feel, we already know. See, we're the federal government...and we're listening.
but i think they dont have much of a chance. With the coming of the PS2, Gamecube, and Xbox, a small unknown company hardly stands a chance. He is confident and that is good, but if the only people standing behind his product is the open source community, then he'll be eating ramen noodles in a few months.........
save the dot coms....from sally struthers. She ran out of food and started eatign all the poor guys running the start-up's! run dot'com 'ers !!!!
run!!!!
when linux gets marked in the history books, the gimp will probably be the stand out application for the platform. Considering how well it has faired against its biggest contender, I think the gimp is a remarkable symbol of what open source and cooperation can provide to the community.
has great possibilities for the medical community. Of course its a long time away, but imagine your doctor being able to visit with you right in your living room, or to assist in vital operations where someone with a particular expertise isnt available in that area. Im sure though that the military will probably be the first ones on board for something like this. In fact, I believe I read something similiar to this on a mil web site, Ill see if i can find the reference....
that schools catch up with whats really going on in the buisness world. Now if community college could just catch up. Considering the fact that universities are major backers of the unix community, why has it taken so long for a credible school to fully endorse a linux related path of education? Heck, Windows was in schools in shorter time than linux was.
legislation affect things such as this? The way I see it, cybersquatting is a very big gray area. On one hand, peoples names and trademarks are being infringed upon, on the other, people should have the right to register something as long as they get it first. Who should legislation slide in favor of? Wont legislation create more opportunity for big biz to infringe upon our rights, rather than the other way around?
some things that have to be thought about. this is a very sensitive subject.
Its boils down to this. The internet as a whole is an asset the government wished to gain control over. Like it or not, they hate the fact that free speech flows so readily. The whole Gore vs Bush debate is just a matter of picking the lesser of two evils. Lets just be objective and look at the facts. If you vote for anybody than either of them, people, your wasting your vote. Dont be so eager to give up a right that many before us have literally died for. Dont waste it. Be objective about the two candiates, and pick one. Im not going to go into detail as to who i prefer, I just say this. When you use your constitutinal right , dont waste it. Dont take it for granted. Im sorry, but using your vote as a form of protest wont be effective. Just pick one who you can most favor.
that linux is getting more and more support from the HW markets. On another note, I can see how this can be a great thing for transmeta if the prices of wireless hw drop. From what I understand, transmetta is aiming to create various linux appliances. Well, what about actuall _appliances_. Web access from the kitchen, the bathroom, and the kids play room, all utilizing wireless technology and access terminals with a small footprint. I know for one that I want to have access to various computing tools in other places than just my desk. And there is no real easy way to do alot of wiring without doing it when the building is first constructed.
just a thought
wouldnt this do more to harm the linux movement et al. ? We are supposed to be waving the flag saying 'hey, install linux, we got cool games etc etc.' Now what incentive do people have to become regular linux users if all they have to do is just boot off a cdrom? If we are to be true linux supporters, then I dont think we should support this idea....
spend enormous amounts of money to ruin your health and make yourself even more lazy. good idea. whoever buys this thing has way too much money and too much time. go for a walk. smell a flower, chase small squirrels around with a stick...just my god why bother with a robo-chair? americans are startin to scare me
reverse engineering deemed by the supreme court as fair use? The fact that a news organization would post an article like this calling people criminals is well, criminal. Somebody needs to send a clearn message to these news agencies telling them that we wont stand by as they push the big biz agenda.

See you always get in trouble when you trust stone. Try trusting something like gravel or concrete...stone just cant be relied upon. Did i ever tell you about how I was raped by granite?
.... i often dream about laying down next to a sweet tetris piece..... slowing rubbing it down..... then making sweet sweet..... oh wait...thats not tetris im thinkin about...its rebecca romain
No sir, the facts do not speak for themselves, not when twisted. GW's statement was taken way out of context. Read some of the same papers you got your information from , and you will realize that younger people are feeling more and more separated from society in general. There is a growing sense of anger in this country, and it doesnt seem to get better. He stated the facts. He wasnt blaming the internet for all violence. Lets look at the facts that speak for themselves. These children that did this attrocity in comlumbine spent most of their free time, playing games and surfing the net. They obviously had a lack of human interaction, and because of this, developed twisted views of life. You remember being 16 im sure. Imagine adding the isolation of the internet and dark subject matter to your already confused mind. Bad juju. Anyway, internet or no internet, just because violence may be down, doesnt necessarily mean that the motives behind those violent acts arent different. The 80's it was Ozzy, the 00's its the net. Life moves on, but I do see trouble on the horizon
in the right direction for Linux. Now, im setting myself up for failure here...but.. My biggest gripe with Windows and Microsoft in general has been they refuse to even acknowledge linux as a viable solution for the desktop or the enterprise. The thick-headedness these people exhibited has been down right sickening. The fact that they will port a major framework, thus enabling linux to act as a contender in the marketplace, is a remarkable milestone for the Linux movement. Once these bigger companies start seeing, and accepting, Linux, more progress will be made. I know it sounds like big bad MS moving in on our territory...but think about it. What if MS opens their eyes and learns something? What if they actually take the knowledge and build windows to be better and as reliable? Sure, its a long shot, but I think its a good stepping stone for both sides. We can co-exist, and It will happen, people just need to lose the ignorance
but what I want to know, is why bother writing a detailed paper debunking something that is still experimental? Wouldnt it be more beneficial to wait until its out on the market and and then point out its flaws..... How can you possibly talk down something that is in some R&D departments lab? Seems like you need a little less pessimism in your outlook......
go on...mod it down...your just drooling to do so. oh well, im not a karma whore
Holy snickies....I always wanted to look at my tv and just turn it on. That's pretty cool that it can read my eye movements and turn on...now if i can just get an optical refrigerator.......
