If the Hubble can zoom in on galaxies that are millions of light years away i'm sure it resolve a LEM on the moon only a few hundred thousand miles away.
after the show i did some research of my own and looked at nasa's image gallery. i discovered about 4 pictures that have multiple shadows. not just one shadow, not just two but 3 different shadows for the flagpole we put up, along with several other shadows that cross each other in very interesting ways and i saw the same background for pictures about 4 times with completely different foreground (equipment, lander,etc). I also have to say that whatever nasa official they had on the show did nothing to disprove any conspiracy theories. All he had to say was "Thats just crazy" or "He's wrong" with no backup evidence.
One question for those that watched...I gotta say that fox really blew it when they said "the only way to know for sure it to look for the leftover equipment on the moon, but no telescope exists that is powerfull enough". thats gotta be bullshit. The moon ain't that far away. Oh well, i'll just file the moon landing with the jfk assasination and call it a day
I had to deal with the same damn thing two years ago. I'd say 95% of the code is completely portable but g++ works 100x better. There was only an issue with one of the getline()ish functions. They impliment it wrong so you have to correct the function in that it returns EOF one pass later than any other compiler i've ever seen in my life. Other than that it should be compatible
what new programming language? C#? the java clone? vC++ a visual way of developing C++? Visual BASIC? a visual extension to BASIC, a twenty year old language that gates wrote back in the day?
I was under a deadline last year to finish a relatively simple little C program for my business class, so i figured borland C under windows would do just fine. It was to read situations and outcomes from a file and allow someone to make descisions and see what the results were. I wrote a good segment of code (i was hot that day) and ran it with a sample file with only one answer. Oops, forgot to save it. Oh well it'll be fine. Bam! GPF!. Ok, no big deal it just took down my program right? Wrong! There goes a good 30 minutes of quality code right down the drain with the rest of windows. I gave my console the 3 finger salute and waited for the system to come back up. thats when it occured to me to try doing this under linux. I booted into linux, fired up emacs and typed out essentially the same code that I just wrote. I saved it (not like I had a choice to get back to the command line). I compiled it and then ran it. Bamn! Segfault! Oh whats this? My work is still saved? I went right back to the shell? I can just open the file and try again without rebooting? AMAZING!! I saved myself a lot of time by using linux for developing that program. I would have had to reboot windows about 15 times before I found the nasty little pointer that was causing problems. 15 boot ups for windows is about 45 minutes on my computer. 45 minutes would have been wasted. Instead it only wasted about 5 minutes while i played with the code and kept trying it out.
e-mail me when you find out. also anyone let me know why the hell movies keep using macs for EVERYTHING. i'd be happy if i just saw an occasional windows box or something. That reminds me, the only UNIX box I ever saw in a movie that was given no credit was in Sphere. They've got Xterms up and login data all over the screen. Kind of satisfying.
I just have one question for the script writers: if the biotech scientiest could "look at" the DNA sequence of the virus to confirm that it was actually it, then why the hell would they need the virus anyway? If you know the DNA, you have the virus....DUH! Lets see what else... There's the mandatory self destruct button... The movie goes for at least an hour without any action happening or anything the least bit interesting going on to keep you from walking out... I love the way they combined the matrix and outbreak... I love the way the laws of physics are defied on a regular basis... I'm sure there's more but I'm tired of bitching
Hey jackass, maybe linux would be ActiveX and MS Java compatible if we could get the fucking code! I don't know if you realize this but in order to create those things called "software" that interact with each other, you need to know how they interact! Its not magic (contrary to popular belief). M$ would have to release the code to give us a chance. Besides, why would Linux impliment broken/security risk software like ActiveX and MS Java?
just read today's userfriendly: Daily Static as we all know, K stands for 1024 so Y2K doesn't start until 2048! what a relief. now i can put off fixing those russian missile computers for a few more decades...
hey, whats that tingly sensation coming from behind me? oh its microsoft trying to anally rape me! (I guess bill is practicing for when he gets thrown in prison) who do they think is going to pay even half that for an operating system? ok, maybe corporations that want a more "professional" OS, fine. But what about us home users huh? win2k is _the_ windows now. why the hell would i throw down $219 to upgrade something that cost me $85? microsoft is killing itself slowly and should lay off the hardcore drugs
1:13am and www.windows2000test.com is still refusing connections. It hasn't accepted one since about 2 or 3 this afternoon. Oddly enough i was going to the status page from the main page and it died. MY BAD!
Well its 3am and i'm running on nachos and jolt but i'm pretty sure www.windows2000test.com is back up (unless i'm halucinating again...). Apparently it was down due to "rewiring" and some strange kernel dump over at redmond. Don't you think they could have scheduled the wiring at a better time??
Well boys www.windows2000test.com is down again as far as i can tell. It doesn't even have a dns entry anymore... some operating system, they can't even keep it up for 24 hours. Oh and what kind of logging system makes you reboot once the logs read a specified length?
are you on crack dude? the server is running jack,didly and squat. I could put a win98 box up there and outside of normal DoS 's it'd be invulnerable. A server that has 3 pages (that render incorrectly anywayz) and no services open outside of port 80 is impossible to break into, however its hardly a test of security. They could also unplug it and ask us to crack it. It would be about as usefull to them and just as secure.
Umm am i the only one that port scanned www.windows2000test.com and came up with NOTHING except port 80? I think its easy to keep a server secure when it can't do anything!

Good! Time for another group to experience shitty DVD support!

BULLSHIT!
Uhh what player for linux supports Divx?

Thats my 2 cents about linux development

gee IE5 with a bug??!! how could that be? anywayz, this is just another reason that netscape/linux rules

It only happens on 159 with the "then" statement. and believe me, i've tried putting in that damn ";". where exactly did you put it?
Hey, has anyone actually used the glibc setup script? It seems to be broken on line 159! If you've found otherwise, please help!
