What would you use it for? I hate to tell you, but a very basic Palm with 2mb of RAM has more functionality than this unless I totally missed something, like a user interface.
Dahlberg, who seems ill at ease in this movie and is flat throughout, simply wants to get home.
It helps to catch typos.:)
I just got back from seeing the movie. While I prefer the original, I didn't see the flaws Katz saw with Dahl... er... Wahl... er Marky Mark and the Monkey Bunch.
Agreed. I have an HDTV. Where I really see how bad analog TV is, is when I tape a show and play it back on the digital set. I might as well be watching it through a sheet of waxed paper. The picture is just bad.
I've seen a few people mention they play Zork and the likes on their Palm. eBooks is a rather new technology and one that is trying hard to find a place in people's homes. Unfortuantly all eBooks are is an electronic, searchable version of books we already have in print. It really is a shame that eBooks have to be that way and can't be interactive entertainment. This platform would be the perfect way to extend the life of interactive fiction.
What better way to spend time on an airplane than with a brand new adventure on your PDA.
I'm pasting it unadulterated seeing as I've found like 20 copies of it anyways so the script kiddies already have it.
Don't blame the script kiddies for this one. It's the infected IIS machines that are trying to attack you. I had an IIS box at work get hit with it today. I was curious if my web server at home would be impacted. Needless to say when I got home I had a pretty full access_log with quite a bit of the.ida attacks. Just for fun I decided to visit some of these IP's. Web servers. This worm is beyond the capabilites of a script kiddie. Now, in a few weeks when we see repeats and variations, those will be the kids.
I also do not feel that it is the web site's responsibility to raise your children.
You're right, it's not the web site's responsibility. It is the responsibility of the parent. But, how many parents would even consider CBS.com has content or links to sponsored content which is violent or sexually explicit.
The line, if you are a physical person you hereby guarantee that:, made me believe that I had to be a big burly man in order to qualify for the exceptions. Since I have never been a really physical person I decided it was ok for me to click the big button.
1) You are residing in France
2) You are not a US resident nor a "US Person"
3) You are not an Australian nor a Canadian resident
4) You are not a Japanese resident, nor a person residing in Japan
5) You commit to not distribute nor make available in any way, any of the information contained in this Web site to all persons living outside of France or to "US Persons"
6) You have never participated in the sale or exchange of Nazi memorabilia on eBay.
That's easy, a core dump. On a serious note it will be interesting to see how well this product is received. An existing Palm user (someone who uses it and doesn't just own one) if they are like me probably has a core set of applications that they have purchased and are quite happy with. There are much more Palm apps than Linux PDA apps out there and Palm OS comes with your Palm installed and ready to go.
Take digital television, for instance. All broadcasters must carry it by 2006, but are consumers really demanding this sort of "advanced" picture capacity yet? No
Actually, speak for yourself. People with money have them. I bought a digital TV a little over a year ago. Many people I know are just waiting for the broadcasts to be there before they make the jump.
I think part of the problem is the cable/satellite companies aren't quite ready to carry the signal. I had a person at AT&T Broadband tell me they had no immediate plans to carry HDTV because of bandwidth concerns. They say they would have to sacrifice other channels to bring me the HDTV version of HBO. I for one wouldn't mind giving up a few shopping channels and all those digital music channels. Sooner or later they will have to make that switch. The sooner they do, the more sets will sell. My main drive for buying a digital TV is I wanted a wide screen, good quality picture when watching DVD's. Unfortunately I have yet to see the TV at it's fullest potential.
I know neither of you but would have to take the side that you don't know what goes on in a police department unless you're part of that department. You don't know if someone is a good cop or a bad cop unless you ride with that cop and then you probably still don't know 100%. My neighbor is a cop. He seems like a nice guy. But I have no idea if he is a good cop or a bad cop. I once worked with a woman who's husband was a cop. He seemed like a nice guy too. He's not a cop anymore as he participated in the rape of a woman during a traffic stop. We were all shocked when it happened. He seemed like such a nice guy. I guess you can't really know a person and I think that was the other poster's point.
Now the comment on the wife was uncalled for and immature. You could have just as easily said that you think you know your friends and your cousin well enough to make that judgement and still got your last word.
> The laws on the books say you can record public places on videotape, but you can not retain copies of audio.
What's the purpose behind laws like that? If I can retain a "memory" of something observed in public, why the hell shouldn't I be allowed to retain a recording, video *or* audio?
Let's not confuse actual law with opinions of law as seen in the eyes of/. readers. Jackbooted thugs aren't going to break down your doors and confiscate your vacation videos because you didn't mute the audio.
Actually I think it was Apple that taught everyone to just point and click.
When my parents got their first PC, I convinced them to take a class. All the teacher did was rant to them about how Bill Gates was evil. They learned nothing. Next time I buy them a PC I will buy them a Mac.

Did you not see the humor in the article? Do you seriously think someone would use this who is trying to make money on the net? I am an avid IE user. I am saddened that Netscape was ruined by Microsoft's tactics but IE is still a better product and therefore I use it. I also see the humor in this mod. And I see value in it. Maybe not for excluding IE users, but for a good example how an Apache mod works. Good job to the authors.
Note: I happen to have Netscape on my RedHat box. I use it when I have to (ie download a file) but as for surfing I use IE on a Windows box. Why? Nothing sucks more than moving the browser window or resizing it and watching the goddamn page reload. Or not being able to handle a redirect back to a dynmically generated page. Or displaying no page when a careless web developer forgets to close a TD tag. There are many areas where Netscape really stinks it up. This may have been fixed in Mozilla. If I ever get a stable build I'll give it a shot. (providing they have taken out all those custom buttons that make the whole browser look like Netcenter.)
They do store your contacts in the registry. Look in:
HKEY_USERS\(SID)\Software\Microsoft\Messenger Servi ce\ListCache\MSN Messenger Service
All your contacts are there. Can Messenger restore from that list? Who knows. I am wondering how bad the client code got screwed up when they were doing the daily releases to keep it connecting with AOL a few years ago.
If you want to use Linux on a laptop, my opinion has always been to pick up a used Dell. The hardware is going to be well documented and there are already thousands if not more people who have tried running Linux on them. Personally I can't see the need to really run Linux on a laptop, especially when OS X is available.
Sounds like a good book.

Lets say I run a small business, and one day a strange man walks in my door, shows me a business card saying he's from the BSA, and demands to audit all my computers
I'd ask him if he had an appointment and then show him the door. Can these guys do much in the United States? I hear about them raiding companies in the Phillipines and other places. But what can they seriously do in the US? If a disgruntled former employee names me and these guys act on it and they are wrong there should be some retribution they have to pay or name their source and let me milk it out of that jackass.
A year ago, the Cube was being hyped like crazy. What happened?
If you looked at the article it mentioned hefty initial price, performance slower than other models, cracks in the plastic, and misaligned switches. But that can't be it.
