Type I's are the best you should use if that's all your equipment supports. A good type I on a new-ish Sony/Panasonic/whatever bookshelf stereo will sound much better than a type II (lots of his and no lows) because the tape deck is type I-only. I used to know lots of people who didn't know about this and wondered why my mix tapes sounded better even though they spent twice as much on tape.
You're trolling, but I want to point out the difference between the two copyright violations.
It's already legal for them to download and use the linux kernel and netfilter code as much as they want. They can modify it and never tell a soul.
What they're doing, however, is trying to resell the modified code in binary form without giving back the changes. That's like making copies of CDs and selling them for $2. I don't think that the majority of the slashdot users (or the editors whoever the hell it is you're characterizing here) would support that practice.
Pirate his stuff. He doesn't need the money anymore. (The technicians have long since been paid, and you're not taking any physical product from the record companies, so why not??)
So the Linux boxes are gone? I remember them being Pentium 233s, so they could be considered obsolete at this point. I remember some DOS boxes for 455. Are these the same machines, or new?
Last time I was at the university labs (1999), the numbers of Suns were shrinking (all the old Sparcstation 2s were moved out), and huge numbers of PCs running Windows NT 4 and a custom version of Redhat 6 were put in.
I think all the terminals were gone too, to make room for PCs. I actually enjoyed working on the VT220s, using screen and vi. Talking to my peers, however, I was in the minority.
AFAIK the backend servers are still Sun hardware (Sun still does NFS best!). And those rooms with the Sparcstation 5 & 10s still had 4' high Sun logos on the wall when I left.
I had a 386 with only 2 MB of RAM and I'd occasionally have to go into enhanced mode to run some win32s-based app. Windows would go into standard mode by default if you had 4 MB RAM, so I had to force it into enhanced with -3.
But when you build the railway, at least you've got something to show for the money you spent. But then, this is slashdot, so I have to hate railways, love cars, and have a hard-on for space travel.
No, soap breaks down oils, grease, etc. that are not water-soluble. Of course, that's common knowledge and you may be trolling. (try washing cooking oil or peanut butter off your hands without soap). All that anti-bacterial shit is a scam. Stop being obsessive-compulive about bacteria.
For example in C, imagine we have the following function:
void foo(int& i) { if(i==1) g(); if(i==2) h(); }
That's C++, not C. You cannot pass by reference in C. Plus we don't have to assume that the call to g() may have changed the value of i. The fact that you're passing it to foo() leads me to believe that it's not declared globally, outside of foo(), g() and h().
Did you mean to pass i to g()? Also, what's your point? I don't get it.
Sounds like COM objects to me. You can copy data of any registered type into the clipboard, and paste it into any application, assuming the application can deal with OLE containers.
Anything that registers itself with a MIME type can be brought up in IE - such as quicktime, flash, acrobat, etc. And COM objects can of course be used in your applications very easily, especially if you develop in higher-level languages such as VB or Delphi.
mplayer.exe came with windows 3.1 through 95 and NT4 (also 98?). When you installed IE and DirectShow on 95 or NT4, the new Media Player would be installed as mplayer2.exe in case you needed to use the old one (mplayer.exe handled incomplete AVI files quite well, but now you need a tool like AVI preview to watch an incomplete AVI).
Anyway, your comment about 7.0 being the latest that comes with 2k doesn't make sense. Obviously 6.4 (the "old one") came with w2k, which is why you had it installed. Also, as others have said, 9.0 is the latest version.
The new Media Players (7.0 and up) are called wmplayer.exe. 7.0 was a rewrite from 6.4 with playlists, MP3 support and skins. Being the first release in the new line of Media Players, it had its share of bugs. Try 8.0 or 9.0.
Guys who are in love understand this. Guys who never have been, don't.
s/Love/a horrible relationship with greedy harpee/. If you're in love and you risk losing her over a _ring_, you need to suck it up and get over her. After you've healed, you'll realize what a loser you were.
There are women out there who will love you without demanding or even expecting you buy her lots of shit. Your mentality is one of the big reasons people have amassed such huge personal debt.
That's not what robots.txt is for. robots.txt is there so you can hide inane stuff like access logs, image directories, etc. from crawlers. It is not for hiding sensitive documents. Put a password on those, encrpyt them somehow, or keep them off the web! It's a public medium.
Health care would be free because he's not making much a year (no monthly fee, but his province might not even have a fee) and because he has to pay tuition (hence pays no or almost no taxes given his income). The $11000 is what the school pays him after tuition is taken care of. Dental is covered by tuition. The poster could have a roommate, or several roommates. He probably doesn't have a car, but taking transit is perfectly fine if you're a student in most Canadian cities. Buying a house or having children is not something you would think or care about as a grad student. And he's paying into EI, so he can draw from that if he loses his job and has nowhere else to turn.
I have a friend in Calgary who splits a nice 1 bedroom apartment with his girlfriend. Including utilities and DSL, he pays $400/month for that. He has a hand-me-down car, but only uses that when leaving the city. Much of the furniture came from salvation army, auctions, as gifts, etc. He has enough money left over to go out for drinks, and buy himself new toys once in a while.
Come on, there are far cheaper, higher capacity and faster firewire hard drives out there. Buying an ipod for the HD sounds like a good way to a free ipod out of your IT budget, though.

I do that. I started with *.biz - the trailer park of domains.

Ethernet frames are 1514 bytes.
But that doesn't change your point that -s 0 is good when you want the entire packet written out.
I filter any mail with a link to a .biz domain. It's the trailer park of domains.

With rpm, just write a .spec for your library or whatever it is you're installing, drop it in the source directory, and run rpmbuild to make an rpm.
.spec that describes what the package provides is easy. Just modify an existing .spec from another package.
Making a barebones
100 Wh = 3.6e5 J.
5.0e14 W = 3.6e5 J/7.2e-10 sec.
Assuming "A few billionths of a sec" is 3.6e-9 sec, that's more like 100 W for 5 hours. (If my math is correct)
But your point stands.

That was FX!32.
He could have at least spoken about that time he got too close to the ass-tronaut.

Surely you mean metre / light (light being a speed, or distance/time)
