    i've stuffed my p800 with 128Mb memory 3 CDs in ogg format... it also works with wireless bluetooth headsets...
    If you get a p900, i think it supports up to a 512 or 1Gb of flash...

    and if you need more space... just carry more memory cards... (there's even a trick for the p800 so you can strap a memory along with the battery (inside the phone) for carrying...

  15. Easy workaround on Is Microsoft Crawling Google? · · Score: 1

    what google has to do is:
    run test queries no one would ever do on msn, check their logs for IPs / masks

    then write some code to:

    1) send results to any query coming from these ranges properly, but with the url link changed to
    goatse or tubgirl/etc/etc.... ... randomly...

    imagine the news:

    "msn search was hacked! shows "tunnel man" as result for searching "the vatican"

    2) Have an internal google staff meeting on a big room with a huge tv screen showing the news channels...

  17. Re:dont have any expectations... on Zope X3 3.0.0 Released · · Score: 5, Informative

    ZoDB itself is not scalable... and zope is DOG slow if you run it alone...
    *BUT*
    the cool thing is that you can add a product called "zope accelerator" or something similar to that
    to your zope page and set up a squid in front of zope...
    On the squid config, you establish a trust relation pretending that zope (actually this zope accelerator") IS another proxy (sibling).

    what happens now is that:
    zope sets a expiry date for your non-changing documents to way ahead in the future (you set this value).
    and squid caches it... and NEVER asks zope for it until this content expires...
    if you change this content, zope will then TELL squid to invalidate it's cache...
    so the next user that goes in gets the updated page...

    Have you seen how fast squid can get? for serving stuff already in it's cache?

    and ZODB itself can't be clustered (actually it can, with ZRS [zope replication services] which is not free from zope.org]) zope can....
    and if you benchmark your web pages, you will notice that ZODB takes VERY little % of the processing time... with python + zope itself getting the objects and preparing them for presentation taking up the rest.

    So: you can build very scalable zope servers... you just need to know how to do it
    think in the lines of : 1 or 2 squids (they can be on the zope servers themselves, as squid takes little CPU), 2 zope servers doing load balance (zope does that natively) and a ZODB server (can be on one of the servers if you are budget constrained).

    or you can shell out some cash and get ZRS to replicate everything, including the zodb.

  18. Re:Zope ROCKKKSSS on Zope X3 3.0.0 Released · · Score: 5, Funny

    oh just on a side note... be careful if you're going to present zope to arabic clients...

  25. heaheha funny part on their blogs on Anatomy Of A Bug In Microsoft Office · · Score: 1


    Google Stole My Idea!

    Well, not directly, but they sure took the wind out of my sails with their newPicasa Photo Organizer and corresponding photo publisher Hello. I've been working on a photo editor/publisher application for personal use off and on for around 2 years. Lately, I've been think about how a lite weight, easy to use solution would be a big hit among new parents/grandparents like myself. Here they go giving it away for free. Who could do such a thing?

    You know what? I will not be daunted. I will rise up from my defeat and create a better application. That'll show 'em. One that publishes your photos to your blog, other users of your application, or via email. Wait, Hello already does that? How about cropping and reformatting your photos and organizing them into an album. What, Picasa has that covered?

    But, aha! I'll bet their solution doesn't use the power of Visual Basic.Net and the .Net Framework. With .Net behind me, nothing can stop me! And, maybe I'll publish my source. More on this later...
