If you didn't see this one coming, you've been staring at the sun too long.
This is the business model that the RIAA should have come up with in the first place! How many times have you been online, heard an artist, liekd them and wanted to get thier songs right then and there? In the Internet Age, why the hell would you wait for a CD to arrive??
The ability to legitamately purchase whatever music from whatever country via P2P is long overdue. I support this idea wholeheartedly.
Sorry, it's been noted several times that speech that may incite others to violence is not considered free speech.
Awhile back there was a Christian/Pro-Life website up that listed pro-choice doctors and the order in which they'd been knocked off in. Guess what, the 1st Amendment was no shield for them.
I'll believe when I see it, as slow as MS has been to produce WinXP for x86-64, I doubt they'll produce a version for Intel's in less than a year.
That and 5-7GHz!!! Defuinately remains to be seen.
I you figure song swapping amounts to theft, then all the swappers are liable for is damages. Roughly 1.00 per song.... a far cry from the 150,000 the RIAA is demanding.
Have to say Linux is coming right along!! With AD support, and soon to be ACL's in the filesystem (some already have it), all I'm wanting is a pretty GUI admin tool...
Inablity to assign multiple groups to the same resource.
Moving several thousand files causes the whole system to slow down(think moving a pr0n collection). under Kernel 2.4.21, NForce2 mainboard....
Since this does a great job at separating air, and a vacuum, this has great applications in space.
Think launch bays that really can be opened up to have a shuttle pass though, and leave the air inside the bay intact.
Yes, this idea has a lot of promise.
Given that the Linux Kernel is very well documented, from the standpoint of which line of code was added when and by who. If the Linux kernel had those features (or code) in it, before Unixware did, then who's to say they didn't steal it from us?
It's more likely there's some "borrowed" code in Windows. Anyone else remember the bzip bug that for some odd reason also affected Windows systems. Yeah go figure.
Long story short, even with the best survalenece(sp?) it can't find what doesn't exist. The problem the conservatives are running into is that, the US can't find WMD that were supposedly ready to use in 45 minutes. Basically they weren't hidden at all if they have to be readied so quickly and yet, there is no evidence of anything. Additionally, we supposedly had "Secret evidence" indictatin _exactly_ where those WMDs were, and lo and behold, now with unfettered access, we still aren't finding shit. We owe the UN inspectors an apology, they were did better with less, and a lot fewer dead bodies.
The best technology is worthless in the hands of people who are willing to lie to get what they want. Remember the farce that was Colin Powel going to the UN, satelite photos of tractor trailers, and warehouses.... can't image any country that was tractor trailers! They must be producing wepaons with them..
I think we need to ask, what we can do to help these type of sites out? Would a fund for legal aid be useful, something to help negate the all consuming legal power of the large corps.
Figure, there's nothing expressly illegal about publishing lyrics, its not even remotely close to theft.
The point of the Opteron isn't the fact that it can do 32bit fast, but that it can do 64bits in a way that everyone understands and has been hammered out for decades.
The Itanium is a marvelous piece of work however, how's going to adopt something so unknown, vs something so familiar? That is the point Intel missed, 32bit is dead, 64 bit is here, which one will be chosen?
Sorry all, although this is a great showing of skill, Linux's battlefield isn't the XBox, it's the Desktop. IMHO we would be better served to pour those energies into making a Desktop/Gaming/Application worthy OS.
Work on Transgaming, work on a driver interface that doesn't require a kernel rebuild each time you need to update your NIC, work on user experience, maybe you've noticed but we've got a lot of dumb users out there, and a Windows -> Migration path would be excellent. Hell, and NT server -> Linux migration path would be excellent too.
Sorry if this is too much of a rant, and my hat really is off the enginuity of the XBox-Linux developers, but I wholly feel it's a bit misplaced. *clink, clink*

Well as I've posted elsewhere I did what I could, I protested, called my representatives and in the jacked up country that is supposed to be the worlds greatest democracy, I (and many others) got ignored. Lets not forget this come election day, this country is long overdue a good housecleaning.
Is it me or isn't there an entire industry that's sprang up offering 3rd party modifciations for cars? With that if modding my car is legal, then why not any other device I own, I worst I shouldn't be able to exact any warranty support, not arrest.

This is no different.
With the current administration so adamant about not criticizing israeli actions...
Jewish group Kahane Chai or Kach, which is suspected of organizing attacks on Palestinians.
This is a first!!!!

Be chaste, eat right, excerise, die anyway....
Sorry, I think I'd rather enjoy these few short years than try to extend them knowing we all meet the same end.

Okay, sorry I'm spoiled
Good job Samba Team!!!!

Bionics, imagine this device power Geordi life VISORS for the blind... or heart implants, you name it.
I'll take the redundant risk and say it anyway! Good going and I can't wait to see your future work!
I thought we weren't supposed to export supercomputing technologies to China? When did that change?
Looks like it also breaks PAN's image displaying ability, a facet of GtkHTML.... drat
It's not that hot, and from the article I was assuming only th field itself was hot, not it's surroundings

Which has proven they value the people privacy. Here in the States we'd be screwed.
