Taking the average may seem to make sense but, Instead of taking an average the best thing to really do in this situation is to minimize the sum of all the distances that the developers have to travel, even better may be to minimize the sum of all the distances squared, that way those farther away from a spot get weighted more. This is a much harder calculation, but it makes more sense than taking an average and then projecting it to the surface.
>For all you know, there are states "below absolute zero"
Not possible by the definition
That's like saying something can go slower than 0 mph. Not possible. Since speed(not velocity) is always positive. Since temperature is just a measurement of how fast "stuff" is moving around and absolute 0 is when nothing is moving you can't get colder. Saying otherwise just shows your ignorance.
In my experience translating after thinking is totally diffrent than thinking in another language. I am a native speaker of two languages, though, and this would be really hard to explain to people who have never thought in another language.
This sounds like a movie I saw where the russians developed a fighter jet that was controlled by the mind. It flew how where you thought it to fly. The cacth was that you had to think in russian.
Calling MacOSX a unix is the biggest insult to other unixes out there.
For those of you using macosX try editing your/etc/resolv.conf. What you mean that didn't work?
How about/etc/hosts? You mean to tell me that didn't work.
Looks like all the net things on macos are reliant on netinfo. and all previously human readable configuration files are now xml.
Wait, there's more. It seams like ufs doesn't work very well with macosX.
So you are pretty much stuck with hfs+. This means that having a file called Makefile and makefile in the same directory is out of the question. Many times this has been prooven usefull for me. Many, many unix apps relly on the fact that on a posix system files that defer in case are diffrent files. I'm not saying it's a good or a bad thing, it's just legacy and MacOSX breaks these apps.
Furthermore the unix tools and the macos tools don't play together, so you're either stuck in command line mode or graphical mode, never sharing files between both.
Try compiling helloworld with gcc for MacOSX. It will run if your type./a.out. Now double click on it. It won't run the program. MacOSX will think its a text file and procede to open it as such.
Untar an archive and try to add some c files to a codewarrior project. It's all just a big headache.
I hope that MacOSX will not give unix a bad name.
MacOSX is not proffesional enough. The thing looks like a candy shop. I would never be able to use MacOSX to do work because I would never feel like I'm working.
The damn thing is not that functional. Bouncing Icons, really, give me a break.
Mac OSX is slow. I'm not getting a new machine for it. I don't need it. Linux does whatever I want it to. Mozilla is becoming a great fast browser. For me mozilla-0.7 is much, much faster than ie for MacOSX(on the same machine).
My ibook is perfectly happy running linux and so am I.
Furthermore BSD utils are far worse than GNU utils. Don't believe me. type df -h See wheather or not this works on MacOSX, or any other bsd for that matter. More examples of gnu only flags. du -sh tar xzvf.
I really don't think the MacOSX interface is better than regular macos. In fact I prefer the old interface better. The old macos was useless though. Non-preemptive, non-protected, useless virtual memory.
I really prefer the customizability of gnome and a good shell. That is the best thing about linux, it is trully what you make of it, and not something that either Jobs, or Gates, Gnome, Kde or anyone for that matter thinks you should use, linux is your own personal os.
Oh yes and one more thing. multiple desktops are great.
MacOSX is just a slower prettier macOS with a unix shell, and a little posix(It doesn't matter that it uses bsd code). A unix shell doesn't make a unix.
The best attempt at this that I have seen is the new Toyota MR2 spyder. IIRC Mid-engine and weighs around 2000 lbs with 135 hp. Not bad for a convertable for $23,000. Although the dealers have been marking them up much higher.
those that care about reliability. turbo/super charged engines run hotter and have been shown to be less reliable. In fact just recently I test drove an older mitsubishi eclipse turbo and it was shitty. Pluss putting a turbo on your car will void your waranty. None of these cars come with the turbo stock. Besides didn't Mitsubishi stop making the lacer evo.
RWD vs FWD
There's a little something that both FWD and AWD vehicles have in common, it's called understeer.
The only time an AWD car will be faster is when it has an engine with a HUGE amount of power, and then it will only be faster when starting from a stop(less likely to peel out with 4 wheels.). The other time it will be faster is on a slippery surface where RWD sucks hard.
2-wheel drive vehicles get better milage(but then again so do 4cyl engines).
There is a reason why no one makes good cheap engines with alot of horsepower. It's not cheap to make an engine like that. You make putting two four cylinder engines together sound easy. There is a tremendous amount of engineering that goes into engines this is the whole reason that the huge (up to 8L) american engines of the 60's and 70's were so successfull. They were cheap. There was very little enginerring. I'm all for technology solving our problems, but If I can afford a 5.7L cammaro but I can't afford a porche boxter(which has 70 less HP) I wonder which I'm going to buy. BTW the camaro 5.7LV8 gets 19city mpg.
Read your own post 178BHP do you know of any big engines that get 100HP/Liter that are normally aspirated and not made by Ferrarri,Lotus,Bentley,...etc. No I didn't think so. Probably the best ratio on alot of horsepower in an affordable car is Ford Cobra Mustang's 4.6Liter gets 320 horsepower.
>>It defaults to running inetd, nfsiod, portmap, and a couple of other things.
>So?
Security comes to mind!
>>They have discarded way to many Unix conventions for my liking. They have come up with their own method of 'controlling' services.
>Good, it's better.
In what way is it better? How do you know it's better? Sounds like you haven't even used it.
yes with ms who owns more than 80% of the os market. So you're telling me switching os'es is more feasable than using gaim. And that os'es are not as important as instant messaging. Yes I am following your logic well right now.
obviously it was not distributed under the gpl as you can see that bsd licsence on it means that is how its distributed. Furthermore glibc is lgpl. you are a moron, but the moderators fell for it. Congrats. +5 on a total troll.
go to www.mandrake.net there is plenty of development going on. They are doing away with alot of their base. And I bet you they are still going to use C. Furthermore Enlightenment is not a window manager like any other. It uses more system resources than many other wm's. So yes you are wrong. What do you know about development anyway? Have you ever written anything?
you should try the apple notebooks. My ibook goes 4-6 hours on one battery. Since you are microsoft free you can just run linux on any apple notebook, they run linux great and they use little power.
va doesn't do redhat. VA installs Debian. Tell me where exactly windows 98 comes into this picture and why someone should be expected to shell out money for it.
First of all win98 doesn't run on all hardware, There are many raid controllers that won't work at all with win98. Why are you expecting someone to shell out extra money to buy win98.
you are horribly uninformed and should check your facts before posting.
The RIAA or whoever does it. Spends way too much money advertising. It doesn't need to do it the way it does. In fact it shouldn't. That way people could judge music on its quality. They are a crappy value for their money. I certainly would rather not pay for the advertising that is spent on them, or for that matter I would really not like to spend money on the advertising of other crappy cd's that the riaa thinks I should listen to(ones that are loosing money). Furthermore recently recording companies lost a law suit brought forth by the us government. The lawsuit claimed that these recording companies have been price fixing for the past 10 years. Don't tell me a cd is good value when you have to pay for advertising plus an additional couple dollars because of price-fixing.
windows 98 can cost anywhere between 130 and 250 dollars.
Furthermore a couple hours is way to long to install a couple of ethernet cards. With there is no need to reboot(other than the one time to actually stick the card in) and I've done it in about 5minutes. Win98 is significant, because it sucks to dual boot. And you should at least get a seperate hard drive for it. Plus you have to bang your head on it because it take 2+ hours to get ethernet to work.
Slashdot Mirror
which two?
avifile and aviplayer offer support for divx and
asf this plugin offers support for qt, what's left?
Yes,
If I only had a dolphin for every CVS checkout, I'd have alot of dolphins.

Why did they have to pick such a gay name?
For those of you who think I'm being homophobic look up somewhere who Ganymede was in Greek mythology.

Will this compiler run on every version of linux (ia64, sparc, alpha ppc)? It won't oh that's what I thought.
windows dnds server uses bind code.
