agreed. I hate to say it, but C# in vs.net is incredibly easy. People tend to forget that Billy boy & co. started MS with compilers/languages, and only moved into operating systems with the guy who wrote CP/M refused to sign an NDA with IBM just to talk to them about there new peecee.
Hello, now that I've graduated college and moneybaggs^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H daddy says I can do whatever I want this his billions, what's the best way to throw it down the drain? Should I burn it, flush it, give it away, or toss it at the cable companies so I can look important? Thnx, j00 n3rd r00l!
Alright, I'm lost. This is ask slashdot. Normally, people post questions here. You gave us your situation, and then thanked us for help in advance. You forgot one minor detail.....the question.
yearly? your rich! I can afford to upgrade once every 4 years or so. I went from my 486/33 to 300Mhz k6/2 to my 1.4Ghz T-bird. Why yes, is is toasty in here:-)
IIRC, nvidia originally ported their drivers to linux for the high end cards that graphic designers use since a lot of movie rendering and CAD things are moving to Linux, and that's a VERY lucrative market. And from what I've heard, the FreeBSD port was a whim of a few employees, and wasn't THAT much work since they allready had the linux port, they just needed to tweak the kernel hooks.
Yeah, 8 of us drove ~4 hours from Rolla, MO. It's too bad Miguel canceled at the last minute. Oh well, the tetris guy and the havenco guys were pretty cool, and a friend of mine spent 2 hours explaining to rasterman how porting his library to palm os isn't going to be as easy as he thinks.
actually, gcc is getting pretty damn good at assembly, at least on the x86 anyway. I was at a confrence the other day where rastman was one of the speakers, and he was talking about his new canvas library called evas. He said he wrote the speed bits in assembly by hand, and then for fun (and benchmarks) wrote it in c and had gcc compile it to asm as well. It spat out line for line what he had spent hours writing.
The more of these horror stories I here, the more I like fidelity. I read the entire AUP, and there's prohibiting servers, I don't have any ports blocked, and they didn't install any software. The "tech" hooked up the modem to the wall and my ethernet card, I showed him how to start mozilla from the kpanel, and he was happy to see my homepage popup. 3 cheers to fidelity for not trying to restrict me in any visible way.
Yes walmart sells r-rated movies, but censored. They also sell sensored audio cds. For instance, I made the mistake of buying a Cake cd. CAKE for christ's sake, and it was censored. It doesn't suprise me in the least they'd refuse to sell even a censored version of the game.
Actually, Seek42 is not supported by UMR in any way, shape, or form. In fact, they've tried to shut Ryan (the creator) down several times, but it's too simple to get around their so called security.
The weeklong lan works, because eventually everyone has enough sense to get sleep (and get duct taped to the floor) every once in a while and eat wholesome pizza. This guy didn't.
you've still got those nasty crypto export regulations to deal with, and as you pointed out, space is not the US, so if your sending out your weather control system, better make sure the controls have some very weak, legal encryption.

I thought I'd seen this before. It was discussed in a comment thread about the quicktime 6.0.2 release notes.

why yes it was, where you there too?

aah yes, and I've spent many nights over the last few years fighting the differences between g++ for linux on x86 and g++ for solaris on sparc
Life-free geeks who care about this stuff all use Debian or Slackware anyway."

from the article, 'nuff said
winipcfg? wuss. real men use ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew starting with 98 :-)

hardware support? are you kidding? If you've got an sb audigy and/or nvidia video card, you'll be comming back to linux soon enough.

What? the duct taping isn't required? well shit.
thanks!

compile everything when a new patch comes out? wtf are you talking about?
wget ftp://ftp.slackware.com/path/to/patches/dir; upgradepkg pkgname.tgz
is it really that hard? oops, I bit the debian troll who obviously has ever actually used slackware, sorry moderators, do your worst
