It is not possible for Linux to rapidly reach UNIX performance standards for complete enterprise functionality without the misappropriation of UNIX code, methods or concepts to achieve such performance, and coordination by a larger developer, such as IBM.
What if this applied in other areas of creative work?
The Tolkien Family's lawyers:
"It is not possible for Robert Jordan, George R.R. Martin, Terry Brooks, Terry Goodkind, or any other well-regarded fantasy writer to reach acceptance as credible authors of the fantasy genre without misappropriating methods and concepts from J.R.R. Tolkien such as good vs.evil, elves, magic, dragons, and also the coordination of a major fantasy publisher, such as Tor.
I dont know if Sorcerer has this compatibility, but you can use the command (in Gentoo) #emerge --buildpkg foopackage to install the package AND build a binary to roll out to your other boxes. So it might not be SO nightmarish...(at least with Gentoo)
I would like to see a layered system with boards kind of like the old tray loading motherboard on the pre-PCI Macintosh Performas. Want to change the video card? Just pull out tray 2 in the back and pop it in. New hard drive? Just slide it in tray one. The main problems would be a.) cooling and b.) connecting the various layers. But with things like the optical bus on the horizon, it may be close.
I just ran every virus scanning software imagineable after running the emulator and nothing turned up. Hopefully this is just someone having fun at our expense...
I got a letter like that from Charter, but without the detailed service switch process. Mine says our service will fall back to their own service, called Charter Pipeline. From what I can tell, it's just the same service on their network, but with caps (we don't have any as of now). At least too many people aren't getting left in 56k hell because of Excite's financial woes.
I don't know anything about port blocking but....

...@Home has been port scanning me off and on for this past week. I've called tech support to ask why and all I get is a perfunctory "We don't use that kind of software, it must be a hacker or something...." Yeah, right.
Why don't we just move to the beach where this thing comes out of the ocean and use all of that "unused" bandwidth for them? Talk about a site that would NEVER get slasdotted...
...those of us who have nifty two-pin digital connectors on our dvd drives? Does it mean that these cds will be "all scratchy" when played? Also, are discs labeled "4D" (Deutche Grammaphone mostly) anything like this?
Seems like to me that the MPAA is grabbing at straws here...we'll try this, we'll try that and what not. Maybe the next scheme will be Mission Impossible-esque "This movie will destruct in 5 seconds...4...3...2...1...42...?
And then we'll figure out how to program a virtual bomb squad.
"Phase 1: In the early ?90s it was all about static information. The nascent World Wide Web was catapulted to the world stage as millions of individuals and businesses began to tap the potential of the medium."
"Phase 2: The late ?90s saw the birth of the online transaction and the promise of Internet-based business models. Both were about connectivity, but now the static distribution of information was replaced by business-to-customer or business-to-business transactions. For the general public, Amazon.com came to personify the Internet transaction. Revenue models based on advertising sales vs. product sales came into vogue and Yahoo became the poster child for this model. The interesting part of this model is the shift of focus away from the technology IP to content IP as the revenue engine for a company."
"Phase 3 is what is being worked on now. It?s all about connecting the currently separate complex systems of information and transactions and bringing that power to the individual in a readily accessible format on a variety of devices."
I'm glad to see that M$ knows the history of (and future of) the internet and decided to let us in on it. I don't know what I would have done if I thought the Internet would continue to evolve into a system with many unique parts instead of being one uber collective with a brand name on it.
Isn't Win XP going to use Passport for their registration verification scheme (i.e. making you call the company b/c your new computer information doesn't match the old stuff in their database) ?
that the MPAA will now also start sending lists of people who go to the XINE website of linuxvideo.org? I know xine doesn't actually post the plugins neede to play DVDs but they could still say "What other reason would you go there?"

Sheesh.

Does this mean I can have miniature women feeding my Athlon grapes and other exotic fruits?
Well, considering most of us with Charter were getting 1.5Mbs and above on a regular basis, it is a little slow.

A guy at our local LUG uses a gun holster. Instead of "lock, stock and barrel" it's "batteries, organization and communication."
I wish I had a Titanium Powerbook here on Mars...

Hell, MS doesn't even own all of the domain names. www.hailstorm.com

I think that you mean when will the subjects of /. stories be switching to Tux.

If so, I'm moving to Maryland.
Now if the judge had been having sex with a large golden apple, then we could be sure.
M$ Winblows: For when you just don't care.
"Available only to manufacturers." Do they think that because we like open source that we won't buy a product most of us need?
"You better be nice to that kid, one day he'll be your boss." 'Nuff said.
oops...meant to say AND linuxvideo.org. Sorry.
