I think the wireframe tank game on the Mac was Spectre. When I got it came with a cool plot outline and a copy of Snowcrash. That had me quite hooked for a while. Very simple, but very intense.
dcop is KDE's interprocess communication protocol. So in theory you could communicate with the konq window you were in. I don't know the details though and it would seem to me that the dcop command would have to be different for each window.
What I think would be great is a shell that's linked to a graphical file browser. If Konsole and Konqueror were linked, such that when I typed, "cd ~/Stuff" in Konsole, Konqueror would act like I'd clicked on "~/Stuff," then I would get the power of a terminal but the easy visualization of the graphical file browser. THAT would be killer.

Right... Because Slashdot always does it best to avoid April Fools stories. Erroneous stories are posted all year round, but on 4/1 they have an excuse..
From what I understand, due to differences in the modutils package, dual booting the 2.5 kernels with the 2.4 kernels is a little harder than in the past.
I would recommend checking out the UML kernels which are released a few days after the main releases. You can run the new kernel inside a stable environment with it own root. See if it works with your workload. If its stable there you might trust it enough to boot into it.
Yes, 'only' was the wrong word. The point I meant to get across is that tariffs harm people in the protected country just as much as they hurt foreign manufacturers.
There is a huge difference between economic controls such as tariffs, and laws which preventing worker abuse. I am well aware of what factory life was like in the 19th century, but I don't see how being against tariffs condones that situation. I am all for economic sanctions for human rights issue, but protectionism is just plain dumb.
On a tangent, if a company opens a factory with bad conditions and low wages(compared to the US), but it offers the best working conditions and pay in the coutry it is located in I would lean towards this being a good thing. Would it be better that the factory wasn't there at all?
Many times there is an option to set the mail root. Just set this to the directory your mail is stored in. I assume you mean it is downloading you whole home directory, and that you don't have random files in you mail directory.
It sucks. I'd like to have job doing what I want. But I am not so arrogant to think that my industry should be protected at the detriment of the rest of the country. This same arguement, that we should have tariffs, leads to protectionism. Why should we allow immigration, they'll just take our jobs right? Tariff and other protectionist measures help a few, but do great harm to many.
Tariffs are always a bad idea. Instead of looking at way to implement them in the software industry we should looking at how to remove them from other areas. The only people tariff hurt are consumers, who have to pay more for the product.
I am a soon to be CS grad, and I am scared of the current job market. But if software can be produced better and cheaper elsewhere, oh well. Tariff are just crutch.
I would rather have smaller laptops than standardised ones. The size of a desktop gives to the flexibility to use standard components. To pack things in the smallest size possible, you are going to have to use custom components.
I would assume that payment is received from the customer aggregated at the end of the month. This way, customers have one bill to pay(Myabe they only pay when it gets higher that about $10) and the merchant gets paid almost immediately. Dunno, there is definitely information missing.
Where we are right now is less regulated than the old AT&T days, but it is hardly unregulated. Right now what we have is all of the disadvantages of market perverting regulations, with none of the benefits of a monopoly.

I would guess that carbon nanotubes still win out in the weight/strength contest, which is the most important factor for the elevator.
Doesn't seem like a tower would have to be very tall to expand the horizon to 31 miles, although I don't know the exact numbers.
I believe the original version of this was mixing Red Bull with vodka. A suprisingly good tasting drink. Just the thing to get the night started.

I think Hut's in Austin would represent the indie label. You can get a burger prepared any way imaginable there, indluding some that will repulse you.
If you are going to rip off Chris Rock, at least get it right.

They already do. If you type in an unknown url in IE, you go to msn search. Does anyone use it? I sure hope not, it sucks.

Go to the 'Window' menu -> Show Terminal Emulator
Does exactly what you want.

If you looked at the posted you'd realize the java comment was made by the submitter, not the editor.

Maybe she wouldn't get so mad if you spelled fiance correctly.
Some more real world math:
First we state that firls require Time and Money:
Women = Time*Money
As we all know, time is money:
Time = Money
Therefore:
Women=Money*Money=Money^2
Money is the root of all evil:
Money = sqrt(Evil)
Therefore:
Women = (sqrt(Evil))^2
We are forced to conclude:
Women = Evil
Very scary indeed :(
I was about half way through the game on 9/11, didn't really feel like finishing for a long time.
Not sure if it is the one you are talking about, but Phish recently started selling concert downloads at LivePhish.com.
All I get is a blue page, what's so bad about that?
