I don't see why anime belongs on slashdot, sure lots of geeks watch anime. Lots of geeks also watch basketball and football, but they aren't covered.
Now I watch anime, in fact i'm in my schools anime club, but I honestly DON'T think it belongs here, it's obvious that the only reason is that taco and a few of the other/. editors love it. I'm fine with that just keep it on anime fu.
This isn't a troll, i truly love/. and think taco does a great job, i just don't think anime really belongs here.
yeah, there is mandrake which is easy to install supposedly but an installer can only do so much, take for instance my sound card, an aureal vortex. I had to search around sourceforge for a driver, dl it, and compile/install it myself. another thiung is the dependencies issue, once you dl one rpm (noobs will be using rpm) u need to download 40 others because you need the latest version of libfoo. Mandrake can make their one click installer, and i applaud them for that, but when it takes an expert to do anything in the os THAT's when u have problems.
well many people rarely use those environments, a FAIR test would have been 2 benchmarks one without kdeinit running one with. THen again it doesn't really matter becasue this review has so many probs with it it's not usefull at all.
since the site is slashdotted and i have no hope of reading the article i'll just post my opinion. I think i have to go with mozilla as the best linux browser, or more exactly, the gecko engine. The reason being that webdesigners will ONLY design for IE and Netscape since running IE is out of the question (yes i'm aware it runs on wine) netscape is the only logical choice. Unless you only read slashdot in which case even lynx is fine.
I admire the work the konqueror people have done, if they can get it to emulate IE exactly then they'll have a browser that's on par. Kinda like what opera did (trying to emulate IE) it just has to be more accurate, opera screws up on many pages, as does konqueror. Mozilla will render 99.99% of pages rightn (those that don't render right were made with netscape 4.x in mind), the others screw up much more often.
since it isnt' shock mounted or anything, and the titanium isn't that great of a vibration dampener, all that would happen is you'd have some intact titanium encasing your crushed computer components
Go to a frys find a titanium and gently press on the back of the monitor while it is on. You'll see the screen deform, the titanium is so thin that just light pressure bends it, that can't be good, and definitely isn't rugged. 1/16" of titanium isn't that strong
I get around a 5 megabit connection for $40 a month, sure it's shared but for i'm happy getting 15 ping on counter strike and gettings 600kb/s downloads on gnutella. Their tech support is very good too. The 3com modem they gave me is quite amazing, i accidentally spilled an entire glass of water down the cooling vents, let it dry out a day and it worked again! That's some luck to get a soggy PCB to work again:)
dude, i can't believe you n0000bs even use X, fuckin amateurs, i bet you use a browser too huh? real men just download the HTML source and look for themselves! fuckin pussys using lynx
iused to play 10six, another massively multiplayer game, the economy in that wasn't so realistic, maybe the problem is that there are people with more money than you have forcing you do things you wouldn't do normally because they are more powerfull than you.
You gotta believe what the church tells you! and if they're wrong just remember, it usually only takes them a few centuries to correct themselves being wrong. Lemme ask you something, how often has the church had to change their beliefs cuz of science, now how often has science realized they were wrong because of the chruch?
fucking creationist asshole, get the fuck off slashdot, you and your moronic ilk don't belong on/. much less the same planet as me
seriously it's time for moderators to stop modding these things up, they're just annoying, if you read slashdot and havn't registered at NYT yet then you have read it enough, it takes 2 minutes and the above poster is an ass
well lets see, current science dates the universe at about 15billion years old. now, we can see the background radiation from the edges of the universe (that's from teh big bang). so lets see now that would mean that the light from 15 billion light years away is actually only 6000 years old, okay that would mean that at that time the speed of light was roughly 2500000 times faster then as it was now. But the article mentions this:
The magnitude of the change apparently observed by the group is minute, amounting to just 1 part in 100,000 in a number called the fine structure constant over 12 billion years. That constant, also referred to as alpha, is defined in terms of more familiar quantities like the speed of light and the strength of electronic attractions within atoms.
I have trouble believing a minute change in magnitude is 2500000 times what it is now.
were they just rendering it on a 21 inch screen or rendering it at what must be the fantastic resolution needed to get it to look right on a giant movie screen?
THAT'S IT MAN! I HATE ALL THOSE N00BS in #linuxhelp , wtf they keep bothering me with questions!
dude get a life, stop being an ass, and be nice to the newbs. you want MORE people to think linux users are nice than think that they are self righteous assholes who think that anyone that isn't as l33t as them isn't worth a second of their time.
because all those games are owned by other companies, i'm betting loki gets part of the profit while another part of the profit goes to the company that made the game.
first off you forgot the slackware evangelists, that aside you obviously have no idea what you're talking about saying
just pick a distro that you like, be it Debian, RedHat, Mandrake, Suse, Caldera or even FreeBSD or something.
a linux n00b has only a faint idea of what a distro even is (what? multiple version of an OS i no understand, where's clippy?) anyways he's lookin for a recommendation, i'm a debian user, started out on mandrake, if someone had handed me debian on day 1 with no help i woulda been gone in a sec, how the hell am i supposed to know that my monitor has a refresh rate, or that my mouse had to be specified as/dev/psaux, if it weren't for mandrake i'd never have gotten hooked on linux. so what you start with should be easy
you have about 600 anti-virus viruses on your server you don't know about some of which were poorly written leaving the admin to weed out the cpu hogging, mem leaking, anti-virus viruses.

it was only successfull because of angelena jolie, me and all my male friends saw it, but only because of jolie. Quite ridiculous eh?
and yes it sucked, worst movie ever.

yes me must pursue a free and open sourceFREEDOME!
FREE DMITRY! FOR THE DOME! FOR FREEDOME!
because all those games are owned by other companies, i'm betting loki gets part of the profit while another part of the profit goes to the company that made the game.
from what i've heard it makes a dummy file and just opens a hidden .wav
