The funny thing is that can fail more often than not. I usually attempt to use Run As to install software for a user without logging back in with admin rights. About a quarter of the time, it will simply fail and I have to re-login anyway.
The pop-ups out of nowhere are probably because some spyware got installed somehow. It sounds like it's time to run Spybot. I would have recommended you run Ad-Aware as well but they got in bed with a spyware provider.
Nuclear design and theory has come a long way since the 50s. I don't believe that nuke plants and environmental responsibility are mutually exclusive. I am not in the least for cutting down all the forests and befouling our water and air. That said, fuck hippies.
It's clear that oil isn't "running out" anytime soon but it will only get more expensive. The majority of the US coal supply is high sulfer bituminous coal and that can only be made to burn so cleanly. Products from it can largely substitute for oil but that isn't cheap either. Bring on the pebble bed and sodium reactors. Oh, and in case it was missed the first time....fuck hippies.
Win98 is barely usable on a 2.4 Ghz PIV. It is good for running proprietary groupware clients and the like. The next version will have decent SB16 support and some small performance increases.
Replace the switch with a dial. It can last longer that way and much fun can be had if the 40mA point is marked on the dial so you don't roast your party favor too quickly.
Apple is doing this stuff (e.g. you can mount WebDAV servers), but Apple is doing it right by integrating network resources into the real VFS layer so that all applications can access them. KDE's I/O slaves are not real filesystems and are not accessible by all applications.
The problem starts when every single thing in the store has a fuckin' contract on it. Everything in the software aisle already does and that is more than enough. I'm sorry but the pervasive and abusive use of contracts by big business means that "But you agree to a Contract!" bullshit cuts zero ice with me. If I pay money for a product then I'm going to get the expected reasonable use of it. I'd wipe my ass with that little piece of paper but they are glossy and therefore useless for even THAT purpose.
Netatalk's behaivor can change depending on the underlying filesystem. More to the point, Netatalk is Case Indifferent. If you set up a Netatalk share on a case sensitive filesystem (the most common deployment case) the you have just created a case-sensitive AFP share. Many Mac apps Do Not Like That. For instance, I had two reading assessment apps that I could never get to work with Netatalk. The clients talked to a filebased database on an AFP share. If made an hpfs or hfs+ filesystem and shared that, then lo and behold they would start working.
Basically, Netatalk preserves the case handling of the filesystems it is serving up. It often isn't the correct thing to do. It is possible to make Samba behave in a case-preserving fashion even when serving from case-sensitive filesystems. I really wish they would do this for Netatalk as well. And no, casefolding didn't work either.
Hmmm. I thought the way they handled it was to attach the high price to having "papers". After all, you can have some ultra 'leet purebred but no one will care unless you have the "papers".
You can use the magical goodness of tar or cpio and friends to roll that install to another disk if you had to. I've done it several times. It's nice to see your disk throughput increase on the same install.
How would this card be better than what we can buy off the shelf then? Even Nvidia cards can provide a 2D desktop from the opensource drivers. Adequate 2D only can be had for 5 bucks from the local used shop bin. This card would have to provide at least rudimentary 3D on the level of a cheezy laptop chipset to even be worth talking about.
A "totally stable driver api" locks you into supporting hack on top of cruft on top of hack. You might find something that badly needs redesigning and won't be able to touch it because it will break the driver of some four year old piece of hardware. It will also force even more contortions onto the other arches. Linux runs on more than x86. What you really mean is an x86 driver api.
Remember that leak of Windows 2000 source? Something like 16% of it was application specific kludges. Many of the apps weren't even MS'. This isn't the sort of developer stability we need.
Also, many applications require more than technical excellence. They require trust. I don't trust the provider of a binary only driver to support my equipment 5 years down the road.
Something I never understood is why Nvidia couldn't just provide a straight dump of the register specs. None of the ultra 'leet stuff that must be in their drivers mind you. Just a list of ports, registers, memory ranges...you know the stuff you need to develop your own driver. It would probably take a couple years to even get in the same ballpark as Nvidia's binary drivers but at least their cards wouldn't become next to useless on other arches.
OnStar can also be used to spy on you. I remember hearing about a case where the cops got a warrant and had a suspects in-car microphone turned on without his consent.
My handwriting is probably as bad as yours. I suppose the only difference is that I can read my handwriting later....that doesn't help much as I'm the only one that can do it. I primarily exist as a keyboardist as well. My "PDA" is what I call the Paper Pilot. It's a folded up sheet of paper with certain bits of frequently used info printed on it and I scrawl anything new that has to be added. Every once in a while, it develops excessive sector errors (creases). So I shred the old one and sync a new Paper Pilot from the primary desktop.
Last week the local news had a fluff piece on spyware. My wife asked "What's spyware?" I answered that it was a bane of my existence at work but something we'll never worry about at home.
You have to make it yourself. That remaster has files that are copyright MS on it. You'll need a fairly beefy machine to do it in less than geological time. A machine that is at least 1GHz and 512MB(+ 1GB swap) of memory gets tolerable. I use a 2.4Ghz PIV with a GB of RAM. That will spit an iso out in about 7 minutes. You will also need at least 3GB of disk space to hold the uncompressed distro and the iso you will make from it. Follow the instructions here.
Knoppix IS Debian so you'll need some Debian knowledge to update the package database and to add and remove files. You will be doing most of the work in a chroot so you DON'T need a Debian machine to make a remaster. You can even boot from a KNOPPIX cd and create it that way.
Once you've created your Knoppix development environment according to the instructions, you do these things to enable captive.
1. Create a captive user. 2. Create a captive group. 3. captive-install-acquire
captive-ntfs needs a captive user and group to work properly. Manually adding them allows it to work correctly again on 3.6. I even made a personal remaster of Knoppix with fix and the XP drivers captive-install-acquire already done. That last is handy because I have had NICS that XP didn't recognize and it gets the driver install files on the disk.
I was young when the Atari 2600 was a hot item and most arcade games were 8-bit machines. Granted the arcade machines had better graphics than the Atari but they still left a LOT to the imagination. Clueless fucks were still bitching about violence in video games. Almost every argument you hear dragged out against video games was parroted then too. This whole "videogames encourage youth violence" thing goes back at least 10 years before Mortal Kombat. You see stick figures firing chunky pixels at each other? Yep, videogame violence.
You can pretty much take it as read that nothing will appease a prude.
If omerta is coupled with benefits like good legal representation and protection from the worst elements of prison society, it could still be quite effective. Of course, it is also understood that the reverse is true and that any snitch who walks is a marked man. It does work out to a variation on iterated PD. If the mob becomes known for screwing over those who play by omerta rules, the number of snitches rises.

>4GB single file downloads are an atypical use case for most people. Did you at least file a bugreport?

If you have a comfy desk chair and a box of Kleenex then you can save a bundle on ink. Oh yeah, get a wastebasket too.

Add some of the wrapped Mplayer codecs to that mix as well.
