The four-square-mile fossil forest the largest find ever is just south of Danville in Vermilion County, Ill., in the 300-million-year-old Herrin coal bed, a 6-foot-thick strip mined by a subsidiary of St. Louis-based Peabody Coal.
OK, now how do we balance "When I allow you to download a file from my computer, I am in effect transfering ownership of the data in that file to you. Something to think about." with yesterdays story Judge Rules Against Deep-Linking of Content where the person linking to content freely available on a website is the bad guy?
It's so often you let the smoke out of something and it doesn't work anymore. It's too bad you can't just buy a can of smoke, and refill the motherboard.
I received one of these complimentary copies of Windows. Every time I turn on my computer it says something like, "You look nice today" or "Have you lost weight" or "I like your outfit"

OSTG, slashdot.org's parent company, has announced a partnership with Comcast cable to start a slashdot cable network, called Slash.TV. All shows will be commercial-free and will be available on the slash.tv website.
You may use clips of the shows to make your own shows, as long as you allow others to do the same with the show you produce.
OK, it's a troll, but who wouldn't want to see Taco and CowboyNeal hosting their own shows?
GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application suites.
GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides an effective method of rapid application development.
GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all developers, including those developing proprietary software, without any license fees or royalties. GTK+ is the only 100% free-of-cost open source industrial-strength GUI toolkit available today.
Since its origins as the toolkit for the GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP), GTK+ has been used in a wide range of software. Notably, GTK+ is the foundation of the GNOME desktop; GTK+ 2.6 will be incorporated into version 2.10 of the GNOME desktop.
I would prefer Amazon to work on the search of their own site before moving to the web. If you could filter results like ebay does, things would be so much easier to find.
Also, the search in amazon.com doesn't bring up most likely results. If I search for the name of a song, I get all cd's with songs with those words in it alphabetically. Searching under "song title" for unforgettable gets me 662 results, starting with "The Unforgettable Year 1919', Op. 89: The Assault On Beautiful Gorky"
I installed ZoneAlarm on a family member's machine who needed it. I explained to her that the box would pop up when a program was tring to access the internet and to read the box and answer yes if she was running a program that needed it and no if she had no idea why the box was popping up.
I also allowed access for the programs I knew needed access to the internet.
She let me know that they uninstalled it, because the box was popping up too much.

The reason we stopped going to the moon was that the contract on that soundstage was up, and it was needed for filming The Six-Million-Dollar Man.
I believe Cisco actually uses a cell phone for their wireless VOIP system.

It's interesting that Google is taking the CLI approach, which gives a lot of functionality without adding clutter to the interface.
Slashdot users, as a whole, might be more comfortable with that approach than the GUI approach, like Yahoo.
At what point does Google make a Yahoo-style frontend for the "newbie" users, just as an option, of course.
