  1. Wheel, version 2.0 on Microsoft Invests in the University of Waterloo · · Score: 1

    The Waterloo-developed engine will enable mathematicians to enter and compute complex formulas using pen-based input.

    So I have my Matlab, my Maple, my LaTeX, all combined into giant ball of code, with an even bigger price tag. Goodie.

  2. configuring hardware under redhat? on Red Hat 7.3 Coming Along · · Score: 1

    Difficult with RedHat? Kudzu automatically scans for and configures almost all hardware at boot. Even in other distros, typing insmod bttv wasn't too difficult, and rnning xawtv with -nodga and -noxv takes care of most any problems with X video drivers.

  3. security? on Lycoris - Linux for the Masses? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    A larger user base could end up reflecting badly on linux in that hoards of less-competent users could set up servers with such wild security idiocies as having user names and passwords the same - then blaming the o/s when they get rooted.

  4. In case no one has said it yet... on Gravestones Advertising Video Games? · · Score: 1

    this is really fucked up.

  5. Re:Open GL is Dying on OpenGL 1.3 Spec Released · · Score: 1

    Perhaps there are four times as many posts about directx because the people writing using directx are not bright enough to figure out the basics on their own?
