    "No word from Holm" should answer that question.

    The 1976 remake had King Kong climbing up WTC.

    Sure, it's always good when an OS lets programers write buggy apps. That way the guys who write their apps fast and dirty yet still get okay performance can go on to write even more apps with similar quality. And if they write enough code, they get to join the OS team.

  5. Re:Slashdotters==Curmudgeons? on iPod Mini Sells Out · · Score: 1

    But you don't have to keep your whole music collection on your player, that's what your computer (with iTunes) is there for. You just copy the stuff you want to listen to in the next couple of hours to the iPod mini - thanks to Firewire (or USB 2.0) this only takes a couple of minutes. Unless you are one of those who get the urge to listen to that song you haven't heard in ages right now

  6. Re:Apple operating systems on A History of Apple's Operating Systems · · Score: 3, Insightful
    Odd, I always had Windows 95 crashing even when only one app was running, and have little problems running multiple apps on classic MacOS as long as I don't run anything from Microsoft or Netscape.

    The point about Win95 (and 98 isn't much better)is: is it the app crashing that corrupts the Protected Memory, or is it the OS killing itself.

    At the same time meaning 1.5 years later; using 3 custom chips.

    The Lisa was supposed to be a computer for businesses users. They may have tried to sell it as the dev platform for the Mac at the time they had renamed it Mac XL.

    Micheal Dell answered: " I just once wanted to do something where Steve Jobs had to follow my footsteps."

    Well, hatefilled people were talking about a "problem" only they can see, and that it has to "solved". And every fucking country, most certainly including the US has a history of militarism. And if there is one place on earth were shooting somebody has been the top choice of "solving problems" by private citizens, it's the USA.

  12. Re:Super DVDs on Philips Develops Fluid Lenses · · Score: 2, Insightful
    Okay, who modded this Offtopic?

    Philips is the inventor of the CD, and plays an important role in the development of DVD and its successors. Now where could somebody use a tiny, focusable lens without moving parts? Multi-layer optical drives, both player and recorder is certainly a valid answer.

    Hey, I wasn't the one asking for a final solution to the iPod Problem. It is quite obvious who is the Nazi here. Godwin's law - you lose.

    Why the hell would they need to make a lot of money? It looks like The American Way took a wrong turn a couple of decades ago.

  20. Re:Further documentation on How The CIA Duped The Soviets' Line X Network · · Score: 1

    Or put in other words: the article is mostly made up. It is not enough for a newspaper article to be loosely based on facts.

    Yeah, it's not like they forced them to trigger the bomb. It was all their fault.

    Gee, even Theodore Kaczynski didn't went so far as to claim that.

    So killing innocent civilians is okay if it releases them from the opression of a Communist regime?

    So? The CIA report mentions no explosion, and I can't find anything about an pipeline explosion in the USSR in June 1982 (or any other time in 1982), let alone about it being the biggest non-nuclear explosion of all times. Maybe you are better at Googleing than me. Go ahead, find me something.
