Whic is meaningless, of course, for the same reason the Alpha used to be a good chip even though it didn't perform as much work per clock: It scaled all to hell.
That's why the P4 is a better chip than the Athlon, they can ramp the MHz up very quickly, overcoming any IPC weakness.
Wow, that's funny because you mixed random words together in a comical and haphazard way. It's actually whimsical in this sometimes over serious world. In fact, it's poetic. You probably suffer a lot on the inside, is that what allows you to write such beautiful poetry?
The company will not make any money on these. I can go out and build a $198 computer and sell it for $199, too. Does that make me a genius business man sure to bring in untold riches?
Welcome to dot-com redux - the Next Generation of Bad Businessmen. The margin on these machines is smaller than the margin on a Chia Pet, probably, and I bet more Chia Pets get sold.
Along the same lines, McDonalds sure isn't fine cuisine. And that primetime ABC television - what tripe! Not a single redeeming, life-altering piece on the whole channel!
Oh, the pointlessness of this. Why not tell people "Stop Drinking", "Stop Smoking", etc...
You're not going to convince people of the ills of watching TV, so why even bother posting this?
The only group more annoying than the "I like to tell people what music I like with bumper stickers all over my windows" crowd is the "I don't have a TV, I have better and more important things to do, and I want to make sure you know it" crowd.
1. Give to the poor. 2. Be there for family members and friends in need. 3. Volunteer for nonprofit organizations.
Linux? Yeah, that's, umm, important all right.
All this pathetic cheerleading for the Open Source "cause" is getting really old. You people are starting to sound like Marxists in pre-revolution Russia.
1. Not clearly violated. Microsoft owns Windows, they developed it, people _choose_ it over dozens of viable alternatives. How is that a monopoly?
I mean, if stupid synopses came into fashion would you suddenly be a convicted monopolist?
2. Right... You're not biased (or paranoid deulsional) at all, right?
3. Buddy deal? Are you daft? Were they supposed to destroy Microsoft so we can have our little Linux revolution? Oh, what a day! "Grandma and grandpa, your/etc/shells file doesn't have/usr/local/bin/tcsh, sorry you can't copy that file over FTP! And quit calling your mouse a ratpointer!"
Microsoft is a corporate welfare program, all the sudden? How does this come about in your twisted, simplistic little mind?
I'm beginning to understand the definition of "corporate welfare": Anything that I, Joe Six-Gigahertz Nerd, don't like!
1. A bunch of nerds vilify Microsoft because consumers have chosen and continue to choose their products in the face of dozens of real lift alternatives. 2. Microsoft competitors (and crappy ones who can't compete - Netscape? Please...) don't like it, and the state AG's see profit, popularity, and an opponent nobody likes. 3. State AG's go after Microsoft, Justice dept goes after Microsoft. Judge in first case is idiot, penalty is adjusted, case closed. 4. Some voter blowing AG from the 3rd biggest Socialist enclave in North America (Calif #1, Canada #2) decides to continue. 5. Some idiot on slashdot thinks the world is going to end because Microsoft is getting away with millions of murders, literally! Well, okay, not quite, but their OS sure is popular and I LOVE Linux so they sure are an evil corporation and the world is going to end.
It sounds cliche, but MS is clearly on the path to world domination (ok, that was maybe just added for dramatic effect).
Who are you kidding? You and your nerd cohorts seriously believe this crap. You act like this is important in the grand scheme of things. It's not.
It's a computer operating system. It's not oil, water, air, or food. People will go on living their lives. Yet you greasy Open Source dweebs go on acting like you're on some holy mission from on high.
Get a grip. This isn't Tron. This is real life - how Microsoft deals with a product they own, developed, and maintain is none of your fucking business and it's none of that Socialist Utopia to the North's business (not Canada, the other one). There are dozens of alternatives to Microsoft products, and there's no such thing as a customer-originated monopoly. It's all bullshit - people _chose_ and continue to _choose_ MS products.
What is this, a fucking Christian solidarity camp? You make this sound like some ultra-important crusade. Is the very existence of our way of life in the balance? Oh dear lord, will barbarians from the North and cretins from the south overrun us if Microsoft is allowed to continue using their intellectual property as they see fit?
The common good? Are you kidding? Do you think consumers care about this, or are affected one way or the other? Only the filthy Linux nerds really care about this, and MS's competitors and their states' lawyers who want to make a name for them$elve$ (oh, and did I mention they want $money$ too?).
This isn't about consumers, it's about dirty geeks and slimey lawyers.
Hopefully. The whole persecution is driven by two groups in the name of the poor "consumers" (who couldn't give less of a shit about the whole thing).
Group A is Microsoft competitors and toady state lawyers looking to make a name and some bucks.
Group B is filthy, smelly, unkempt nerds who generally pretend to libertarian leanings except in this one case due to their pathetic obsession with their one-off computing solutions.
Neither side has a valid case and thankfully Microsoft can stand up to both of them.
Does anyone notice that neither the reporter or the spammer have a clue?
"Stealth reponse" that notifies him when people read messages.. Right... I bet that works about 1/10000 mails. Some Romanian (how come it's always the Romanians, Bulgarians, etc.. that are credited with this sneaky stuff) came up with a super-spam that can practically popup adds on your forehead without you knowing it?
Freaking ridiculous. A scumbag _and_ an idiot both at the same time.
Criticizing the plot of a Star Trek movie is like going out and buying a "Fat Chicks with Huge Jugs" magazine and complaining about the lack of literary value.
It's a Star Trek movie. Of course it's going to be mindless action and sci-fi. Duh. Doesn't mean it's not worth seeing (though it may well not be:).
People love to characterize something as "meaningful" or "not meaningful".
Entertainment doesn't _need_ to be meaningful, and I'm sure neiter the author nor the people involved in the movie are at all concerned with idiotic, pointy-headed wannabe philosophers criticizing the lack of earth-shattering meaning present in the Harry Potter series.
In fact, the worst kind of chimp is the kind that sees where the mainstream goes, and veers off course just for the sake of veering off course. i.e. comments which can be paraphrased as "if you like this, you must like Britney Spears and N'Sync".
In short, your point is missing. This is entertainment, not gospel. Get a grip on reality and stop looking to children't books and Hollywood for meaning in your life.
Yeah, someone chirped about me saying he's probably got security flaws in his own code, so I checked identd2 and quickly found one, or at least what could be one depending on how the assmbly gets rolled.
He's lucky the assembly code isn't coducive to a hack, and this is the same mistake that usually does lead to security holes. It took me 10 minutes to find it.
Start the ident2 daemon, send it exactly (no more, no less) 128 characters. It will overflow the buffer and set the character after the 'buf' buffer to '\0'. Function is _getl. Send it 127 - daemon keeps client connection open. Send it 129, daemon keeps client connection open. 128 and it closes the client connection.
Just dumb luck that it isn't (to my knowledge) exploitable.

In other words, thank you captain obvious.
Oh, you nerds and your misplaced sarcasm.
A faster processor (and/or hard drive, more memory) will make your Internet experience faster. End of story.
What turnip truck did you just fall off of that you think the only component of web surfing is your link speed?
Wal-Mart - not afraid to take some chances. Wow, that's the most wrong thing anyone's said on here for quite a while.
You mean take a chance like selling uncensored CD's?
Yeah, that Wal-Mart, that's one stand up chain.

Microsoft could just stop selling their product in Taxasocialists. Fuck 'em - what power does one small state have?
Yeah, maybe if they win they'll give you the money back as a tax break.
That would be sweet, you fucking socialists would only have to pay 76% of your paychecks to taxes instead of 80%!
You're free to voice your opinion - quit if you don't like it. Crybaby nerds.

My Grandma's done most of those things with SSH, I don't see her publishing a PDF on it.
