Well my friend, if it's possible for the phone companies to text message their ads to your phone in an instant, I'm sure these guys will find a way to update those definitions during say, 2am, much like a live update thing.
What gets me is that this would be geared for either for distributions trying to enhance the user's "linux experience" or just to help newbies configure their devices "painlessly".
Meanwhile, anyone with an ATI card, for example, would still be just as dead in the water as before. Of course, I would be curious to see how well this turns out.
You may be stuck with the stench. OK, random bad jokes : give them to PETA/ADL/vegan society. Give them to Cowboy Neal, no one will notice them over his stench.
Let's not forget, if you bring them to a tightly packed LAN party, no one can tell the difference between the addicted gamers and the PCs that reek of rotting pig parts;)
But adding gekco to it makes it a more powerful browser, as opposed to one that sometimes tends not to display pages properly. Thats why I used firefox in the first place. What is in store for the linux firefox now?
What really needs to happen is that someone with an extensive music collection, and the desire to fight this, needs to leave various P2P applications open 24/7 with access to their vast, legal music collection, so that someone will notice.
Umm, isn't that WHY the RIAA is going after people in the first place? That is, I'm assuming you mean leaving the MP3s open to P2P programs that you ripped from your own CDs for others to download.
I'm sick and tired of the instant-info-internet too. I'm moving back to TV where I have to watch for 20 minutes to see the sports scores or news that I want.
My name is WhiteRanger99x and I am a phone luddite...not by choice necessarily, but by the fact that I just cant afford the latest phone/PDA/Ginsu Knife/Toothbrush that's out there:)
I do however like to think that my cell phone is actually fairly modern (ok, it doesn't have a camera, but it serves it's purpose):P

Nah, I think this MAY just reach those requirements ;)
Eeeeep, that must be a trojan horse then. :-)

Well, as long as I don't have to sacrifice my Britney Spears ringtones, it's ok with me...
Wait, I didn't mean Britney Spears ringtones, I meant Slayer ringtones! Yeah, rock the fuck on dudes!!!!
Why not just make a phone that is secure in the first place and can't get viruses. This has to be the worst marketing ploy ever.
Why not just make computers and software that are secure in the first place and can't get viruses? This has to be the worst marketing ploy ever.
Finally, I can tell the GF to ditch her mac! for a PC :D
Don't take it personally, I think wishful thinking was playing a role in that statement ;)

Running Alcohol? If you plan to use that as an aftershave, that's exactly what everyone around you will do! ;)

Ummm, they can...well....improve it.
Aww don't be rough on them, they're much too busy filming those OH SO NIFTY PriceLine commercials :P
Shucks, you're right, I did mean ImageReady:)
I must've been thinking of how IR and PS "integrates" with one another
True, but you need to think of modern days where Flash reigns supreme of being the great annoyance :)
:)
(Ok, I'll add that Flash is a great tool to have when used properly
how soon will such functionality be implented in major graphic manipulation programs like Photoshop?
:P
Oh, and yeah, I'm sure someone will make it work with The Gimp, so don't flog me over that detail.
Remember, this is slashdot, you can get away with making the same "insane system requirement" jokes over and over again. :-)
Hey! I was one of Be's 12 users and I take offense to that snarky remark! :P
Eek.... who would want to trust their data to a file system so complex that even Microsoft can't finish it after multiple years of development?
:P
We already do, it's called NTFS!
Be nice to Microsoft, they still have to pay Fisher Price royalties for the color scheme they have in XP ;)
:)
But in a nutshell, yes. You get to pay MS to say "Hey look at me, I got that newfangled Winders! It's the Shoehorn version!"
What really needs to happen is that someone with an extensive music collection, and the desire to fight this, needs to leave various P2P applications open 24/7 with access to their vast, legal music collection, so that someone will notice.
Umm, isn't that WHY the RIAA is going after people in the first place? That is, I'm assuming you mean leaving the MP3s open to P2P programs that you ripped from your own CDs for others to download.

Oh my god! Grandpa, is that you!?

Something tells me that's going to play hell with the battery life on cellphones everywhere. :-)

It's almost as practical as having a TV Screen right smack dab in front of you while you're driving your SUV, Truck, or whatever
