This is a 10 foot dive to retrieve a baby who's fallen into a pool. A couple bite marks is much easier to deal with than a death. With a dog trained to do this, then you can bet he/she can do much.
An interesting thing about spore is that it uses a proprietary version of puredata (puredata.info) to enable rapid prototyping of the Spore audio engine (search the pd listserv). I think it's called EAPD. Unlike Max/MSP, Pd runs the interface and the audio/dsp engine in separate processes, enabling headless patch execution. The rest of this thread should still be somewhere in the archives- I've pasted a bit on the license issue: onsidering that I have had to deal with this legal minefield, I can say the following:
Work with Miller to understand what is covered by the BSD license (not all of it is)
There are a number of "game engine" issues which you need to address when using Pd (this is at the technical/code level)
Don't worry about the patches. Any game is going to have encryption and other copy protection stuff on it.
Please don't ask me to comment on the details of how PD has been/is being used. However, if you want to talk about the theory of PD being used in games, especially on a certain game console which I care about:-) then ask away...
Note: if you are dealing with a game publisher on the legal aspects of PD, then it is likely that my company has enough legal agreements with them for me to talk about concrete uses of PD. Let me know in private email.

Have you used chimera to type in any large text boxes? there is definately a difference, especially on older systems. Safari's text entry boxes have support for cocoa services like spell checking. Also the blue focus blur goes around the active field. Keyboard navigation is also OS X-like. Earlier builds of chimera used the mozilla modern theme, and I understand they simply switched to an aqua theme. IANAC though, so I may be wrong about the widgets, as I'm not involved in the mozilla project.
I think since QT was ported to OS X, it's easier to use native widgets with KHTML rather than gecko. Chimera for instance does not use real aqua text entry and widgets within the web page, but a theme that looks like they are.
I used to fly them a bit too. They are a great hobby for anyone who wants to try it out. The hardest part for me, wasn't the flying part, it was rebuilding the things if you lose control or interference causes your transmitter not to work.:( I'm not much of a builder either, so I eventually had to give it up. Model Helicopters look interesting though
I had a ctcp command do that on undernet once. Like[1] an idiot, I ran it, and nothing seemed to happen. It had however hung up the modem and dialled 911. I tried it four times. I forgot about it and carried on for about 15 minutes. Then at midnight I heard a knock on the door. I thought maybe a neighbor had some sort of an emergency or something. It was the police. He asked if everything was ok, but wouldn't leave until he saw my mother to make sure I didn't hack them up or something. It was kind of hard to explain that someone on undernet had sent me this command and said that it actually done something else. I wish I could say I learned something from that experience...
but wait! no sound comes out! hmmm. kernel module needs to be loaded/kernel needs to be recompiled? is my sound card compatible? what? no hardware acceleration? why can't this movie play full screen without losing frames? oh, wait, all that can be fixed from the kde control center, right?

Actually MS is upset that the apple ads are focusing too much on stealing windows users and making them buy new apple hardware, instead of trying to get os 9 users to upgrade to os x, to validate their efforts in porting Office to it.
Kraftwerk. Their discography here and their official homepage here. A good cd to get you started would be "the mix", which has track representing many of their cds. Kind of like a greatest hits. I personally like electric cafe and Trans Europe Express.
If I remember correctly, only 1/3rd of the american colonies were support of revolution. Another third were loyalists and still another was neutral. Plus, if it weren't for France deciding they wanted to undermine Britain by fighting with the Americans, we would have had our asses kicked. (! and we'd all be speaking british)
I agree. It's too generic, like those damn bags of imitation cereal on the bottom row of the supermarket. At least that's what I think it would seem like to an average consumer

So that's the person who messed up Hard to Explain. Scared the hell out of me when I first heard it.
At install there is no root user created. So by default you cannot log in as root from the gui or via su. sudo is available however to users who are set as "admin". You can enable root through the netinfo config utility. It asks for a new root password.

It would be cool if someone could find out what comment or story this remnant of an url refers to,
o de=thread&tid
www.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/01/06/195724&m
it briefly appeared on the address bar autocomplete list on the movie
It would be smart to enable journalling before doing this: /
sudo diskutil enablejournal

[1] maybe "like" is not the best word
Some poor reader probably reads at a threshold of four, so until you get one more point that whore comment is going to remain opened for them.
Don't worry, i've got it taken care of:

doesn't seem to be compatible with the 10.1.3.1337 update that came out yesterday :(. in fact, all my programs don't launch anymore. not even aol.

I would imagine using the Xserve would take a lot less space

There's a DVD playing. The teacups are floating around from a different application. They are chrome.
They are reflecting in real time what the movie is playing.
(probably why it won't work on my Rage 128)
The idea of this guy logging in as root all the time makes me cackle with glee.
At install there is no root user created. So by default you cannot log in as root from the gui or via su. sudo is available however to users who are set as "admin".
You can enable root through the netinfo config utility. It asks for a new root password.
There are a lot of threads at various mac forums with this topic, but a current one is here at MacNN forums.
MacNN forums seems to have a well deserved reputation for being full of idiots. Especially in the OS X threads.
