Sometime back, I tried searching thru the Google news site, for the Oregon Open Source bill. Curiously, I got a wrong reference to a March 6 Slashdot article. Right now, Google lists 'zero' matches for an "Oregon Microsoft Slashdot" search.
Something crazy going on between Google and Slashdot? Why this hide-and-seek??
Nah, Microsoft, Open Source, and Slashdot are listed as 'noise words' in Google's dictionary.

That's easy to say in theory. In _practice_ I find the Linksys 802.11g card get s auseable signal a good 30% further than my Orinoco gold card. (I'm assuming due to improvements in firmware)
If renaming the file changes the optimizations, why doesn't anyone (read: not me) take a gander at the detonator drivers and figure out what OTHER games it's tuned to?
Lets add $15 worth of hardware, $3 worth of software and charge an additional $600 for our laptops. THAT'LL boost sales!
Seriously, you wouldn't buy a slow laptop for $1800 because is came with a funky mouse, drivers for that mouse, and a few utilities that used the extra buttons on that mouse, would you?
Displacement on demand is NOT just a selective removal of injector and spark events. There also an oil bypass system that reduces the oil pressue on the lifters for the cylinders not being fired.
Corvettes have a Limp home mode similar to the Cadillac system mentioned elsewhere. When it happens, it make the car a PIG. Like it can't maintain 50 mph on the highway PIG.
The older V8-6-4 system mentioned elsewhere actually decoupled the valvetrain and the crank when it went in 'less cylinders' mode. It was a nightmare.
The new system will only use harmonic multiples of the total number of cylinders: V8 will get a V4 but NOT a V6 mode. There was too much vibration trying to run something with 8 cylinders and only 6 firing.
A good ergonomic analysis of your workspace. I've had work related wrist injuries twice, each time when I started a new job. Repositioning my chair relative to the keyboard relative to the monitor fixed both issues.
You've got a paypal dontation button to help compensate you for your non-trivial expenditure of time...how well is that working? Is it an adequate revenue stream, or just enough for a pizza or two?
Oh, I'm pumped about Doom3....on the Xbox. Buying a console removed the ONE reason I used to upgrade boxes. So there was a new savings in buying an Xbox and a number of games...here's hoping Doom3 uses the NV30 chipset to it's fullest.
It works EXTREMELY well in the current Corvette. I rarely look at the dash anymore. It DOES make it hard to truthfully answer the Sheriff that you didn't know how fast you were going.
I've got a Nic (used to be called ThinkNIC) that I turned into a DMZ webserver, running NetBSD. By pulling the CDROM and the modem daughtercard, a full size Harddisk fits perfectly. Tell it to use ports 80 and 22, and you've got a one wire in (power) and one wire out (ethernet).
I needed a new router/firewall/AP, I bought the linksys g product, a couple of G cards, spent an afternoon looking for Broadcom support in linux and pitched Redhat for WXp as a result.
That laptop is mostly used for surfing the web and rdesktopping into other computers, I'd most likely put RH8 (9) BACK on it if Broadcom's g set was supported.
I can't be the only person that WANTS this. (and I DID lobby Broadcom and Linksys for driver support)
Is to do what I'm doing now. I'll wait til the dust settles on DVD+-R, and when everybody keeps shuffling around with the Blue DVD standards, I'll upgrade from CDRs to whatever's left in the DVD+-R format with a $68 drive and media that costs $.25 a piece.
(Have you priced burnproof CDRW's lately? I rember paying $350 for my first 4x drive and thought what a great deal it was...compared to that $800 drive a roommate had in college, which IIRC was _incompatible_ with CDR's.)
Alas, that means it'll ALWAYS take 12 pieces of media to back up my data.

SOMEBODY'S been watching a little too much Matrix lately.
Was that Steve Would address the attendees like a mad Principal addressing a class called in for detention:
Steve: "We WERE going to sell 10.3 for $129, but since one of you had to go and ruin it for the rest of you, it'll be $200."
Attendees: Awwww!
One guy punches another guy in the arm in the back row.
I think I see a market opportunity for BeOS!

The broadcom chipset in the Linksys 802.11g card does...but there's no support for it in Linux. :(
Like, how long do we have to wait for the Silicon to deplete?

Well, it was hard, but I realized the line 'in' was bigger around. (to make up for losses due to heat, I'd presume.) ;)

Honda Accords can be stripped. Try fencing Segway parts.
