I do also recommend SqueezeBoxes, I have three. You have a variety of them for different purposes and the server is open source written in perl.
Each device can be controlled with their own remote, or by using the web interface or by bying a dedicated controller (running linux and you can ssh into it if you wish). iPhone/Android have controlling software available on their markets if that's what you use.
Well, they must have noticed that eight years ago.

You don't need a geek to do it, just a router. It is just that "out of the box" routers don't do that yet.
I have had native ipv6 connectivity at home for few years now, all the computers (linux and osx) are automatically set up for it, with a linux box as a router. Pretty much everything internal goes over ipv6. Externally ipv6 is preferred, but I seem to only person using it:-(
My laptop with Mandriva has almost 900k load cycles in 10 months, when using with battery less that 3 hours per day. Maybe I should start shopping a new drive...
Changing the options in/etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf to use apm mode 254 on battery seems to fix the issue.
I would not consider speed of command line option processing to be bottleneck in any application, the overhead of starting of the program is far greater.
I watched the launch live from Astra Vision, but I have to admit, that Americans can do failed launches more spectaculare than Russians (Challanger).
More seriously, I am a friend and a neighbor of someone involved in this project. He is not back from Baikonur yet because the bloody French air traffic controllers are striking once again, but what I heard though his wife, he does not feel too good--six years of work down the drain just like that...
It just happens that today I received Foo Fighters' One By One from Amazon, and the small print on the back says it is copy protected.
However, cdparanoia (and thus grip) seems to be able to extract the audio without any difference to a normal audio CD. Grip can also play tracks by clicking them.
One difference seems to be that a CD player (I tried KDE CD player) can not play it, the CD drive starts scanning the disk wildly and I had to turn the computer off to stop it. This was an Dell Inspiron 8000 laptop with CD-RW drive, running Mandrake 9.0.
As long as you can extract the audio tracks, you can also make a new "normal" audio CD from them...
Castration does not work for females, and most of the spam is either female porn or viagra. Wouldn't that mean that most of the spammers must be females?
When I started using dvorak, I remember I could not touch qwerty for some time, or I would be completely lost with any layout.
After few weeks when I was fluent with drovak, I was able switch easily, but since I have not really used qwerty in ten years, I am quite slow and uncomfortable with it.
Quite true. I switched to dvorak about ten years ago, and things like vi or emacs are more difficult to use. I have no problem with commands, but key bindings are often designed for qwerty locations, like vi's hjkl.
One could, of course, to remap emacs bindings, but ruled that out quite soon, since I would not remember which rarely used ones would be remapped.
Better yet, two screens attached to your workstation. I have been using this configuration for the last ten years, and I find it difficult to work on a single screen. Left for the documentation/browser/mail whatever is needed, and the right one for the emacs, terminals etc for the actual work.
I don't mind the light, I prefer good sunshine, but during the evening/night, some small desktop lamp is the most I can have, no overhead lights.
You are wrong about Diet Coke. Coffee, Evian and cigarettes are mandatory, otherwise nothing works:-)

At least for me, the state of mind is the most important thing. The environment is unimportnant, secondary thing that I don't even notice. Switching between bug fixing/question answering state and development state is a big one, and it takes time.
In bug fixing state, I can multitask efficiently between multiple small size tasks, do them together, answer a question in a middle, etc.
In development state, I am really concentrated, and if someone asks something, it is very difficult to concentrate a sudden support question, and if interrupted, it takes time to get really back into development state.
If the development state is difficult to reach, I need music. Something heavy, Metallica seems to work best.

The ICANN blog has a working link.
CoPilot for example stores maps and voices to the SD card. The application itself is not big.
If you have Google Sky Map in your phone, can't use use that?

Very convenient.

Text anti-aliasing is one 2D area where nv is very much slower since it lacks render extensions. The speed in text rendering is clearly noticable.
Besides, Google Earth is nice with nvidia driver, for what it's worth.

It is a Linux box, plug in whatever network/audio card support you want.
Computing needs electricity which is limited resource in mobile devices. Thus having anything to use less computing increases the battery life.
I guess that in the U.S. the same amount (~3000) people die every month in car accidents.

This would get me 20 * 220 * $100 = $440k per year. Let them spam.

It is not just the speed. I use dvorak and typing is clearly easier and requires less effort than with qwerty.

This was reported last Saturday on Slashdot. Why again?

I prefer living in a climate where I do not need one. Like I do now.
