I have AT&T, and the area I live in (Los Angeles County) has lots of Cingular zones. Whenever my phone in on a Cingular network, I have to dial the area code of people I am trying to reach who are in the same area code as me. If you try to just dial the number without the area code, Cingular says it cant connect.
This just happened to me again today, so this merger may be complete business-wise, but there are still bugs to work out of the network.
Go into Netinfo, enable root account. You can now log in as root.
Back when OS X was pretty new, lots of *nix illiterates used to think you had to be logged in as root to have all the administrative powers of the system. Lots of software would be broken by it, and shareware developers would be swamped by email by people saying "I'm logged in as root and your program doesn't work".
And since Sony Ericcson is one of the lesser phone makers in terms of units sold, I think the technology will be fine.
Another big step in making sure BT is here to stay is to ensure that home PC's come with adapters by default. Apple has been doing this with PowerBooks for over a year now, and that has helped the technology grow.
By the time we have 10GBits in the home, porn, warez, and Linux distributions will hit a size large enough to make that not the worlds greatest connection.
Nowhere in the GPL does it say they HAVE to offer their software as a free download on the Internet.
Furthermore, they are allowed to sell disc media based on "cost of materials". Yes 49.99 is a bit exorbitant, but well within their rights.
This is why I've always felt the GPL needs to either be replaced or improved. Downloads on the Internet ought to be a requirement, as all GPL'd software involves an advanced enough audience that knows how to download software.
At the end of the "I've changed" conversation with Mary Jane, the taxi is right next to her (you can see its roof next to her face), yet in the next shot, she has to cross the street to get to it.
Because as we all know, there is only one working taxi in New York City.
I found an iMix with 100 songs but I don't think you can buy it in one piece. Also, I found an iMix, Songs from Alias, which had 38 songs, costing $37.62 to buy the whole thing (0.99 per track):(
So it looks like only the modest-sized iMix's can be purchased in a package, and you're still paying the 0.99 per song
What you're talking about is commonly called a Scantron, as they are really the only big distributor of those forms that I've ever seen.
I don't think that would work though. Every single time I take a test on one at school, there's always someone in my class who totally screws up and marks each answer one column lower than he's supposed to, ruining his score.
On a national scale, allowing for the guarantee that the people of Florida will have a particularly high percentage of making these mistakes, I'd estimate around 5 million screwed up scantrons
"These are minor technical hiccups that happen," said Hood spokeswoman Nicole DeLara. "No votes are lost, or could be lost"
Didn't they let some hackers lose on that Diebold machine and find 30k fake votes changed in a matter of minutes? Honestly, I don't think they're ready for this, if they ever will be. My grandfather can't even operate his DVD player.
In the gubernatorial election here in Cali (when Arnold got elected), they replaced the chad system with essentially the same design, but instead of punching holes, it left a really dark ink mark on the circle, which seems a lot safer to me. And this thing really flooded the ink, i touched it to my thumb just for fun and it left a pool in my fingertip. To me it really seems like a smart and simple alternative.
Though of course I expect some replies on the contrary:D
is certified to run on Netscape 6+ and IE 5.5/6.
I work at PSFT, and although they told me not to, I went ahead and tried to work with it in FireFox, and it worked fine.
As far as the server goes, its supposed to be able to work on a UNIX server, and you can use Oracle for the db, making Windows unnecessary at all ends.
The Archos Jukebox's failed because they were expensive, but alos because I really don't think that many people care about having video on the go. Those little portable DVD players are cheap now, and I still don't see that many of them.
When you're walking around school, or in your car, a music player is great for obvious reasons. Vidoe capabilities aren't going to be particularly useful considering you have to walk and drive, and at least attempt to pay attention to the current direction you're moving in.
Basically, portable music players are great because they are "On-the-go", which is a concept that doesn't apply well to video.
If Sony wants to turn a profit they should focus more on a really nice music player, not a video player.
And what's with all these Slashdotters saying "Ipod" instead of iPod?
You spilled coffee on your cat, causing 3rd degree burns. S/he starting meowing in pain and you jumped to the rescue, accidently knocking your computer off the desk.
Oh, you mean your cat just knocked the coffee onto the computer? Never mind...
Boot off the install cd/dvd, and you can change your root password to anything you wish.
After that its just a matter of recreating accounts and adjusting permissions. You can do that pretty easily in the Finder by getting info on a folder and changing permissions for all the contents of that folder and it's sub-folders in one click.
Jeff Pulver created Free World Dialup, and AMAZING service that is free, and lets you make any domestic US call for free, as well as toll-free numbers in the UK and Japan.
He is an advocate in that he wants to keep VoIP free. They make money be selling SIP phones (some of what actually look really cool).
He sees this as a disappointment, because if taxes are applied, it's going to be quite difficult to give a person free long distance in the US (from anywhere in the world) for free. They don't even sell off e-mail addresses.
Of course, such is big business. When you buy a car, you pay a "transportation fee" for getting the car from the factory to the dealership.
When I was a kid I lived near one of Toyota's factories, and the same transportation fees applied at the nearby dealership than at the one near me here in Los Angeles.
I would hope that eventually the cell industry will become saturated with companies someday to the point of "No hidden fees!" advertising.

I don't think thats it. I'm in the 818 area, which is pretty large. Pretty much the whole of San Fernando Valley is on the same area code.
I have AT&T, and the area I live in (Los Angeles County) has lots of Cingular zones. Whenever my phone in on a Cingular network, I have to dial the area code of people I am trying to reach who are in the same area code as me.

When you teach Linux to children you can instill the ideas of Communism at a young age.
This way when they grow up they will love the party and not grow to oppose it.
Too bad the USSR didn't have Linux, they'd have probably won the cold war!

People said that about 14.4, 28.8, 56k, and DSL.

It's always been that way.
The 20GB iPod weighs the same and has the same dimensions as this device.
Kennedy used this as an opportunity to show how this system is sort of a lousy idea, and an even worse implementation.
So to this, all I can say is that Ted should be modded up at least +3 Insightful
You urinate >95% of the water you intake.
So yes, that is close to perfect. This technology is neither useless nor stupid.

So now Slashdot is going to get cached for a long time and I'll never get first post again :(

Not to mention it's almost assured the next revision of the G5 desktop will come with a video card standard that will support that screen.
This is the first time ever that SUSE makes an ISO for i386 of one of its product flavors available
Except of course for the LiveCDs.

This did actually happen. A friend in an IRC channel I frequent was pasting large portions of it to show off.
