You see all these americans rallying behind bush [well not anymore but during March I was all teary eyed....;-)] in support of his war crimes rampage.
Now when all is said and done people want to sue already over burdened schools. It's as if americans are saying "who needs education when we got our fingers on the triggers".
And then americans wonder why other countries hate them.....shock, horror, surprise!
Well there has to be RF leak, see jackass electrons going though wire makes a magnet field...RF low and behold is essentially many electrons going over a wire called an "antenna".
Now a 2.4Ghz clock over the copper inside a cpu would be a 2.4Ghz RF signal [or a multiple of it]
Good thing you finished yer grade 8 science...
Are all trolls on/. this stupid or just you specifically?
invidually wrapped or single use... I think I meant one of those...:-)
All this 2.1Ghz Athlon radiation.... [speaking of which doesn't a 2.4Ghz P4 make the same RF band as Wi-Fi [albeit prolly lesser RF singal coming at people]
in the suit have cell phones, watch TV or have a computer [um, like monitors give you a warm feeling if you sit too close. That isn't because windows is friendly!], drive SUVs, eat fast food, use individually used products, swiffers, etc, etc, etc...
Fuck.
Stupid people. Why don't thse people sue the school for using windows? That's more hazardous to their health.
Monitors generate hella heat. If you encourage people to have twice as many is that really a good thing?
In KDE I can hit CTRL+Fn to switch desktops. So I have one for email, one for development, one for the TV, etc...
And not only am I poluting less but I saved myself the extra 300$ another monitor would have cost.
Smarts I am...
I mean the "it's nice" argument only goes so far. 4GB of ram and a 7Ghz processor would be nice but the 300dB of noise the fan would make, heat, cost, etc... would outweigh the benefits.
I pity you, next thing you know you will have your first original thought and you won't know what todo with it. Then in your frustration you will bottle your anger into a zealous need to post the *same* joke over and over.
How about you hold onto your first original thought like your life depended on it. And cut your fucking hair already ya hippy.
Well as I pointed out I don't know specifics. I'm not an ICANN employee or what not. I'm just extrapolating based on the lawsuit they were putting forth.
Holy shit, thought on/..... sorry for surprising ya like that....
So mr. AC, how about you shut the fuck up. Thanks.

"Support is awful"???
Um yeah there ain't no alpha channel but the images still render. And for all intents and purposes that's good enough for most cases.
While I'm not a web "artiste" I don't think I've used GIF for anything since I had dial-up ten years ago. JPG/PNG is supported enough that my banners/screenshots will show up as I expect them too.
I think the point you guys are dancing around is that Verisign was *not entitled* to start SF in the first place.

This is what people said about PNG support back in the day too. About flash, about...
Whoops.
If decent tools are made to support a format it will find it's way in. Heck even pbrush can save PNG files [IIRC] in WinXP.
In fact if memory serves me MSFT just uses a base of libpng for their PNG support in the first place [they prolly mod it up and add some.NET goodies or whatnot].
So some OSS nut writes a non-GPL libsvg and it will likely find it's way into MSFT IE.
Is it the law or the application of the law? I don't recall all these patent rushes in the 80s and for most of the 90s. I think it's just people abusing the law [or twisting it].
IMNWCTBAL but blanket statements rarely serve any good to anyone.
Are ya done yet? We get the point. Some idiot doesn't like Tom St Denis. Now move on. There are a couple million other slashdot readers you could annoy.
What's worse is your some lame ass coward that takes potshots at people from behind a curtain. You're probably the type that will go around threatening people in person with your "macho big stuff" attitude then never actually follow through with it.
You can download live *CDs* off their website/mirrors [you can also download really small stage1 CDs if you want to go full-tilt customizable]
Gentoo doesn't fill the same niche as Knoppix. It's meant for the "power users" who like things built decently right [e.g. wtih zlib support turned on for instance:-)].
Knoppix is cool and all but really is a POS for developers just like Gentoo would be a POS for end users who don't give a rats ass about development.
My point of my original article is that instead of finding more unique projects to fill a DVD why not build the current packges with all their options and glory [e.g. zlib support, screensavers, etc, etc, etc].
Might as well just call it a Windows CD at that point if you're going to randomly disable features.....
The purpose of this paper was to say that diversity was good, not thatl linux is better than windows. So your comment doesn't make sense.
Also if you doubt people will plomb "linux" in their box [e.g. RH6 or something] just to check a box on a form somewhere you're sadly mistaken.
My point was that idiots who can't setup NAT firewalls and patch systems in Windows won't fare much better in Linux where daily patching [if you ever used Gentoo you know this] is pretty much par for course.
So what. All you do is increase the attackers workload *linearly* but increase the users workload much more [cuz now they have to learn two different systems].
Say I right a mod_ssl exploit [for really old apache distros] for Linux and a RPC sploit for windows that deliver the same payload [e.g. a DDoS program]. Where's this "everything is more secure" paradigm now?
Hey if they just configured things correctly that wouldn't be a problem... libtiff with no zlib support [which makes using tiff2ps hard], KDE with no screensavers...
Don't forget the oh so important 5 minute last-lecture review. I find in my classes [arrg] that it helps tie together lectures [specially when they are once a week].

Well I really doubt you could pick up [with say a radioshack freq counter] a cpu running from more than 10 cm away.
My point was there is a field [albeit small] that is produced from the cpu. Keep in mind the power going through any one wire is *very* small.

Start planting sites that root peoples MS boxes and there will be a huge outcry on CNN or something.
Like the blaster worm, code red, etc, etc, etc.
The problem is manifold.
1. even when MS patches bugs people don't care
2. If people don't care why would they waste money patching things
So, if you're this pissed off, make them care. Show how you root the machine of some joe-smoes computer with a simple gif or something...
