Imagine if the near-center sounds in a movie actually emanated from the screen itself. You could place several of these on the back of the screen to enhance the directionality.
In fact I thought of this with the NXT flat panel speaker technology (got a pair of those from Mission), and it's probably been done already in some form.
Yes, but eventually RMS the Grey will escape the caves of Gnuria (s/dwarf/gnome/) as RMS the White, to join Mr. Frodo Torvalds of Back End in the quest against Bill Sauron of Mordor, WA.
Of course, the only reason why Loki went bust is Linux. Had they chosen any other geek platform to port non-geek games into, they would definitely have succeeded. Right?
It's more fun to say GTK = GIMP ToolKit where GIMP = GNU Image Manipulation Program where GNU = GNU's Not Unix where GNU =...
Personally I think in the spirit of Grecursive Gnucronyms it should be named the GTK ToolKit.
I agree on the OO bit though. It's silly that there are projects like gtkmm around just to compensate for the stupid decision of writing OO in a procedural language. It's like bolting a networking, windowing OS on top of DOS.. wait, someone actually did that...
Studying in cam.ac.uk, I went to see a talk by Duncan Campbell on modern espionage in October 2000. In the end he asked Markus Kuhn from the audience to explain his latest work, CRT eavesdropping. So I guess 'news' is a relative concept:-)

How to Save PGP

· Score: 2
Shit! You told what the first G stands for.. I was anxious to have to explain 'GPG' as 'GPG Privacy Guard' which would fit the GNU humour, oops, I mean gnumour.
I share most of my books with friends. We often agree things like: I'll buy this one, you buy that one, so that we don't have duplicates. I feel that lots of energy would be wasted if we had to buy multiple copies of the same book. In the end it gets quite blurred who actually bought/owns the book, and it does not really matter.
It wouldn't really make a difference if we copied the books. Once I've read one, I'm unlikely to read it again soon. In a way, we're already duplicating information when sharing the books in the old fashion. The difference seems to be that physically copying is illegal, which is a completely arbitrary statement. Our legal sharing scheme is already 'taking money from the artist' because we're not buying duplicates.
It's completely arbitrary and unphysical to say that a person owns some thing. The idea with car keys is that of convenience: you're always sure nobody else has used your car, so you know where to find it, in what condition. Once you can duplicate cars with zero effort, this problem is meaningless.

Dunno about the rev/min, but my PC has 573 RPMs.
(air, that is.)
Which makes them ideal for your WinXP box.

The same goes for a condenser mic. It's a capacitor whose capacitance is varied by sound pressure.
Bah! Who needs those geek toys anyway? I'm off to do some karate. Brush up, brush down, Daniel-San, that's the way to get the fastest arms.

Anyone else see a Nordic conspiracy here?fnord ... f+nordic. Think about it.

Shouldn't that be 'src' instead of 'SRPMS'?
In addition, Sony has a habit of creating its own 'standards' while good, proven equivalents already exist. ATRAC and Memorystick, anyone?

Fuqit. That was not funny. Mods on crack again.
Good point. Is it a coincidence that Linus the Great is a native speaker of Swedish (although a Finnish national)? Methinks not.
Apparently the GNOME developers are bouncing with joy, at least until the whole system crashes.
Seriously, it's too hot and crowded with all those packages. My plain Sawfish is working just fine, and a lot cooler.
:-) Well that's not a bad way of looking at it. In the end we're all together on this planet, knowing that emacs is better than vi.

"I bastun bor vi allihopa" is Swedish for "We all live in the sauna." Don't ask me what they really mean by that...
It's not 'suckage', it's 'suction'.
It's so small, no matter where you go, you can tiqit with you.

Isn't GPG (an OS implementation of the PGP protocol) exactly what you suggest? It's been around for quite some time.

Well, trolling is a kind of fishing...
