Is anyone else thinking that this gas giant houses a hyper intelligent race of celestial beings? Perhaps there is a satellite array which mantains the strange orbit and prevents the large planet from colliding with the star and destroying the system. Perhaps this array has an advanced energy system which creates the heat bursts we have detected!! AHA!!! Perhaps!!!
and there will be new support for something called "Execution Protection" which allows developers to make use of the NX (no execute) page guard flag on Intel's Itanium and newer AMD processors. An interesting read."

[PATCH] Fix 'noexec' behaviour
We should not allow mmap() with PROT_EXEC on mounts marked "noexec",
since otherwise there is no way for user-supplied executable loaders
(like ld.so and emulator environments) to properly honour the
"noexec"ness of the target.
Is there any relation? Are these entirely seperate things, or is one a software implementation and the other a more direct processor instruction for the same task?
When did the Turbo Express come out? This site gives the specs on the Turbo Express, which could play ALL of your normal Turbo Grafix 16 games (which beat the pants off most Genesis and some SNES games).
It had nice color, good portability, and a wide selection of TG-16 Hu-Cards to choose from. The games were even smaller than Game Boy cartridges!!
The winning shirt has a/. symbol that allowed me to realize that "/." looks just like the bullying eyebrow and eye of the bad boy on all those bumper stickers... (not the calvin version - the other ones) -- did I just waste your time or what?
My girlfriend and her twin are more involved in Dynasty Warriors than Leu Bei of the Shu family did so many years ago. They mostly play as the female characters. It's a ton of fun... -- It's a shame Dynasty Warriors 4 didn't preserve my favorite DW *50 kills congratulation - "You fight like the Devil!"
why not just use a standard filesystem (msdos/vfat) and leave an encrypted zip or gpg encrypted tar file in the root directory? How is this any less secure? As an added bonus it is very simple to implement and will be supported under any platform (that is dos friendly).
We already have this in Linux (*BSD, etc.). It allows you to rip RealAudio streams, et. al.
~/> dpkg -p vsound
Package: vsound ...
Description: Virtual loopback sound recorder and real audio converter
This program allows you to record the output of any standard OSS
program (one that uses/dev/dsp for sound) without having to modify or
recompile the program. It uses sox to convert and save the raw data
into the desired file format and can help to convert real audio files
to some other non-proprietary format.
Don't you know how hard it is for me to double click "Mantophasmatodea", open a new tab, middle click it in my google box, and press enter... Think about the people you are affecting when making such decissions in a/. post.
You may also want to mount non-write needing partitions (/usr,/) as read-only... Generally, depending on the software, you can create a system which only writes to/var,/tmp, and the user-home directories.
Ofcourse, you should also use a journaling filesystem like reiser or ext3. These filesystems tend to take the whack out of impropper shutdowns.
If you have a modem, it is possible to direct all of the linux boot, and often (on newer systems) the bios, out to the serial port. This way you can handle all user intervention. Short of boot-up/bios your best administrative interface will be your ssh client. (don't forget to remount rw before installing new software)
I thought you said this application was DOS based? Why do you need windows licenses? You could easily go with FreeDOS, or just use an existing DOS 6.x license. You're not guaranteed an ssh interface that way, but you tend not to get instability as well.
When I first started playing with Linux I thought this was awesome. It let me develop in the old familiar Turbo Pascal 6/7 environment (which Borland also used for their Turbo C)...
I believe it even has it's own debugger (or runs gdb in a subwindow)... All the functions keys are the same too...
If you like those old IDEs, try this, you will never notice a difference.
These 'scientists', if they are like those I've encountered in other places, are probably still running twm/3dwm with a few xterms and using Xlib/motif for their development... While some labs are Sparc/Solaris based (and antiquated), these fellows sound like they are SGI/Irix based (and antiquated)...
Some secretary probably wanted a new Mac. When it arrived the guys wanted to check under the hood. They found that it is 3 million years ahead of their SGI boxes and decided to start switching/porting.
I seriously doubt that they got into doing this with Linux... My guess is that they installed Redhat 5.0 a few years ago, and then maybe tried 6.2 on an underused partition, eventually scraping it when their uncompressed images needed more space... They probably never really investigated Linux as an alternative. And now that they can go out and buy a stylish OS/X system, they won't have to...
Do I have a point? No.. Hmmm, a sure sign that I'm just ranting...
Wait! I do have a point - I assume that they have not really given Linux a try, and should not compare it to OS/X for that reason....
From what I read on the last report, these carbon nanotube string type things will run out between Earth and Space (gravity and centripital force keeping the line secure) with the ability to support a few tons of stuff on them...
Why can't we make small Jetson's style homes on the line... Everyone can live 5 miles up..
The only thing that I can see as negative about this is that driving to work you will see all of these shiny vertical lines above the landscape heading out into the sky...
The arcade controller was called the NES Advantage. The wave your hands thing was called U-Force. I think there was a connect four game too with its own accessory.
You are forgetting the best accessory of all!!! It was one of the first too.. Good old Rob the Robot - he came with that block stacking game...
Why do i get the feeling that you are awaiting the day when all media is freely available over the internet to such people? Ofcourse it is simply there for the sake of your reaping in the benefits... Yes, I can see it now....

Personally, I never make mistakes. I hardly even watch what I type these days....

http://www.iter.org/ is the ITER Project web site. The ITER U.S. is not really in production.
I would like to know who goes around posting links to their resumes as referers to your website?
Is it the people looking for jobs, or is it some resume posting service? I get about a half-dozen of these per month.

Does this compare to Transparent Aluminium?

Ahhh.. You're right, I'm wrong... But I'll repeat the truly correct answer as I have already lured someone down the wrong path:
document.write("\u00A9".charCodeAt(0));
That provides the decimal, then you just have to convert to hex.
function Dec2Hex (Dec) { var a=Dec % 16; var b=(Dec - a)/16; hex="" + hexChars.charAt(b) + hexChars.charAt(a); return hex; }
Blatently ripped off from here
