  1. Picture of Pioneer's digital sound projector on Assorted CES Gizmos · · Score: 1

    http://www.pioneer.co.jp/press/release366-j.html It's in Japanese and it looks pretty scary.

  2. Short term memory on What's Your Earliest Memory? · · Score: 1

    I really have trouble membering even yesterday. Most of the time I can't recall what I ate or anything besides than where I was and with who. A week back; it's very hard to recall anything. I remember only bits and pieces of what happened when I was in school. But then again I have a good memory for faces, but not for names. Some things stick, most don't. It's strange.

  3. Crude syscalls? on OpenBSD Gains Privilege Elevation · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't this require more fine-grained syscalls in order to be effective? Without knowing how it actually works, I assume this system is dumb in the sense that it only allows certain syscalls to be executed throughout the program.

  4. Bandwidth on Digital Video Capture and High Frame Rates? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    A quick calculation on the bandwidth of capturing 12000 SVGA-resolution full color frames per second:

    1024 (width) * 768 (height) * 4 (32-bit color) * 12000 (fps) = 377,487,360,00 bytes/second (35 Gbytes/s)

    So no wonder they use film...

  5. Noises and experimental on Electronic Music 101? · · Score: 2, Informative
    Also, if you are into abstract ambient noise whatever soundscapes, try these bands:

    Lustmord: Metavoid, Purifying Fire, Where The Black Stars Hang, Heresy, Paradise Disowned, twenty minute songs of sounds fading in and out, like being submersed in some odd form of liquid, very trippy.

    Black Lung: Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars, The Depopulation Bomb, The Psychocivilized Society, Unconfortamble Questions for Comfortable People, also nice ambient sounds

    Also, just to list a few other bands with experimental sounds not mentioned yet:

    Necrophorus: Gathering Composed Thoughts, Underneath the Spirits of Tranquility

    Brothomstates: Kobn-Tich-Ey

    Panacea: Low-Profile Darkness, Twisted Designz, Phoenix Metabolism

    Needle Sharing: My Kind Came First, Mono Brutal

    Tarmvred: Subfusc, Onomatopoeic

    Venetian Snares: Doll Doll Doll, Printf, Making Orange Things

    Micropoint: Anesthesie International, europhonie

    Imminent Starvation: Human Dislocation, Nord, North LP, Ethyl LP

    Converter: Blast Furnace, Coma

    Mlada Fronta: Fe2 O3, High Tension

    Hypnoskull: Fast Forward / Burnout, Electronic Music Means War To Us

    Mike Patton

  6. Re:Only one problem... on Concept PC 2001 · · Score: 1

    Are you sure Wacom uses wireless power transfer? I've never heard of such thing.

  7. Re:Me Too ... Me Too ... on HDCP Encryption Cracked, Details Unreleased Due To DMCA · · Score: 1

    I have broken RSA encryption, but I can't release the details because I fear I will be prosecuted under DMCA.

  8. Re:MozillaQuest is complete garbage on Mozilla 1.0 Delayed Again · · Score: 1

    If you look closely at the first tree image, you see one of the "Crash Landings" -features being "threaded pr0n". Also in the second image, there's another feature called "libpr0n".

  9. Re:Can Regenerate on Mouse That Scans Your Fingerprints · · Score: 1

    The computer probably generates an unique identifier first and sends it to the mouse. Then the mouse concatenates the identifier and the fingerprint together and sends it back. This prevents replay attacks. I understands secure POP3 authentication does it in a similar way.

  10. Re:good news for university students! on GNUTella Search Tool · · Score: 1

    Yeah, right, soon they'll be enforcing a bandwidth limit on everyone. It would be better if Napster/Gnutella/wget/whatever had a bandwidth limit setting of their own: do you really need to download at 200 kb/s when you can do it perfectly well at 100 kb/s?

    Remember: the bandwidth is shared and by hogging the bandwidth, you're hampering others' use.

  11. 0.08 micron on Billions of Transistors on a Single Chip · · Score: 1
    According to The Register, this IBM's 0.08 micron process. I just read an article on a IT-newspaper that all CPUs currently in development are being developed for 0.10 micron process (such as Elbrus 2K).

    sektori.com

  12. Re:BeOS question on Ask Slashdot: "Be" is for Beowulf? · · Score: 1

    Yes, a DEC Tulip card worked fine in R4.0, but wouldn't work in 4.0 anymore. I took a 3Com 905B from my other machine which worked just fine.

  13. Extensive security features? on Techno Bra will alert Authorities · · Score: 1

    It's a serious health risk if the bra calls her boyfriend when I remove it, just think about it...

  14. Re:be [open source bigot] on GIMP, Civ:CTP, and low-cost box Coming to BeOS · · Score: 1

    BeOS is not stable? Seems like you've never tried it. For me, it's much more stabler than Linux (which boots up every 10th time if I'm lucky), OS/2 or Windows.

  15. Cygnus scum? on Be Inc. Selects Cygnus Solutions GNUPro Tools · · Score: 1

    If Cygnus is scum because they use GPL software to make money, it means also Sendmail and Red Hat is scum too.

    Besides, BeOS Release 4 comes with a full-featured, free compiler called EGCS (Pentium-optimizing GCC). This port was developed by Cygnus for Be, Inc., AFAIK.
