"Indymedia NL does not publish the two subjected articles itself. There are just links on the pages which direct to other (not by indymedia NL controlled) servers where those articles are published. Quite important here is that those links don't even direct to the two articles self, but only to pages who direct them further on.
To be precise: a user must follow another two links after the link at indymedia NL to reach one of the two concerned articles. From indymedia NL to a mirror with an index of radikal issues and other information (and without clickable or textual referrence to the two articles), and from there on to the index of on of the two Radikal issues, and only then to one of the two concerned articles. When a visitor doesn't know the numbers of the issues of Radikal, and doesn't know the exact titles of the two articles, it is in no way clear where he could find the two articles. (The correct issues and titles are otherwise to be found in the sentences from 15 and 25 april 2002.)"
So it looks like its the courts who are providing the necessary information to actually find the articles with Radikal. *bad* court! (*silly* court!)
"Companies are inhibiting innovation, Cerf said, by letting users receive information faster than they can send it. "

"how many "Joe Shmuck's" surfing the net at home
Yeah, and how many Joe Shmuck's ever do anything innovative? Its not that there aren't plenty of Joe Shmuck I-want-to-be-a-couch-potato-forever(s) running around out there. The point is that the small percentage of innovative gifted talent out there should be exploring the possibilites and extending the potential, which won't happen while we're stuck in consumer mode. Controling access is to content allows content to be priced. When everyone has the ability to be a producer, then the 2% or 3% who can, will, and that will disturb the current access control models. Those models should be distrubed.
"A world-class Linux cluster solution combining cost-effective hardware from Dell and Cray's world-class services and software for High Performance Computing applications and workloads."
I didn't think you could download a current java VM from MS...isn't that what the courtcase settled? So 1.1.3 is the best MS can do...and your stuck unless that popup directs you to a sunsite (which it would, yes? why would it *ever* direct you to MS to get a java VM?)
"This zip file contains the source code and project files necessary to build the OpenGL Shading Language compiler as a standalone executable for Windows platforms. It is 3Dlabs intention to help OpenGL move forward by providing source code to the OpenGL Shading Language parser and intermediate-code generator that we have implemented. We are making this code available in the hopes of encouraging rapid development of OpenGL 2.0 implementations as well as common tools and utilities."
The cg toolkit is available as a tarball or in rpm. Hmmm...Anybody porting OpenGL Shader Language to linux?
But who is "distributing" with the internet? If I put cat pictures on geocities am I the one distributing same to china? Does my site go to them, or are websurfers "going to my site".
Gotta agree on the form factor. Standards compliance doesn't matter to my MS using friends because they just don't care if its broken if they can't tell its broken. ("As long as I keep taking the Heroin I feel fine.")
Once they saw me using tabs they wanted to have tabs too. A crack in the armor? Well, we've been playing status wars based on the RC version number we had installed, (I trumped 1.0 with 1.1a, hee hee) and no one is using IE to browse the web anymore. They were familar with skins because of winamp. Now MS "themes" seem to be a joke.
There are more modes than analytical vs. numerical. The arguement made is that visualization is a form of learning in and of itself. "Pure" math requires not the physical systems modeled by the math. But damn its nice to have something concrete to intuit by.
Well I suspect what he really meant was, "Graphing conic section after conic section, man, there is no way to *want* to do this stuff without a calculator." The question is really, should we allow math problems to be solved in easy manners? What happens when there are no easy solutions to a problem? Write new algorithms?
Ah the difference between models of "knowledge". Does the kid who can retrieve a string of symbols the most quickly "know" it? Or the kid who derives the formula from first principles?
Oh yes, lets make the learning curve as steep as possible! A kid can visualize vector operations, geometric properties, etc...? Hell, make sure he chokes on his multiplication tables first so that we don't have to compete later. Math is *supposed* to be hard and anal, right? Why even let them know there are math concepts until after they begin a master's thesis? More rigour! Formalize to the point that kids are out of Highschool before they realize math even involves numbers. Like, "I got my PhD, lets see you get yours."
Why not do both? Run parallel mathematica kernels on your beowulf cluster...but use a wireless protecol that eliminates the need for phone companies;-) Are there Free symbolic manipulators that parallelize? Octave can, for numerics, I think. MPQC *wants* to be parallel...hence the name.
Pretty much right, except that the bill of rights is a limitation of federal goverenment. The right to bear arms relates to a well ordered state militia. Thus, "the right to bear arms" gives your state the right to have a national guard. If you want to claim a constitutional right to bear arms, you must join your state national guard. Other rights to bear arms are found in state laws (hence the range of differences from the Texas concealed carry, to the California almost nonexistent). Federal laws limiting the type of weapons (no fully automatic, no flamethrowers, etc...) don't conflict with the constitution as long as the National Guard is thus limited.:-)
Actually, my ISP's service contract (Pittsburg State University, KS) stipulates that the university has the right to monitor (read) all email, and all web connections, and all file transfers, and the status of all ports.
Methinks he is suggesting that any graphical representation would be less than his imagination would muster. Rather like comparing *any* movie, decent graphics or not, to an excellent book from which said movie was made. I like visual effects. Reading great books is still better than watching great movies.
Well more kids graduate highschool with calculus credit now than in the 1950s, for sure. Its also true that the US experienced a significant drop in its crime statistics during the previous administration. (This was the first sustained drop I can ever remember.)
SouplsGoodFood is wrong on several levels. Its true that the debugger isn't a subset of the browser, but the browser isn't a subset of the debugger either. The debugger is, and the browser is, (and the mail client, and composer are) a part of mozilla, which is what "quit" is quitting. The difference between "quit" and "close" is ancient and venerable. Thus, I'd have to say that it appears that at least some cnet people are newbies.

Would the mod chip violate the DMCA? Do turing complete systems violate the DMCA? (I'm not kidding...)

"Configure your X for multiple resolutions, and switch between them with ctrl-alt +/-
This does not change the resolution of the display, only the size of the viewport."
Ah...yes, it does. It does both, depending on what you've set for your allowed states. It moves from state to state.
But weren't the quotes, "nobody will ever need...", and "the world will never need...", which sorta extends the context?
Dude, your getting a Dell!
"A world-class Linux cluster solution combining cost-effective hardware from Dell and Cray's world-class services and software for High Performance Computing applications and workloads."
Companies' action vs. citizens' action. There really is a difference. With citizens who laugh at ideals, who needs a constitution, anyway?

So, what good is the chastity belt when it comes with a lockpick included?
Maybe motivation to actually learn to use the lockpick?
In the USA we have a legal right to make a backup copy. We just don't have a legal *way* to do it.
