Anywho... I'm studying electrical and computer engineering and I'm doing sys admin stuff while going throught college. Anyone can do this stuff... If you're computer literate, get a helpdesk job somewhere and work your way up.
Surfstation works fine in Moz 1.0RC1 and Konqueror 3.0 in fact, every site I'm trying seems to be working fine, granted I am trying all the major ones... Praystation works fine, designiskinky works fine
/me tries some of the old Dreamless crew's sites... Limmy has a few bugs... Milt's site seems to work fine tho. Wish I could remember some sites with heavy DHTML...
IE does the best job at making complicated sites look good.
Try "Lazy web developers do a good job writing non-standard code and not testing it in any browser but IE." As a web developer myself I can tell you that the code I write works properly in Mozilla and then I have to go back, test it in IE, and make adjustments so that it looks right in that browser.
Also, you mention a friends site which is *100%* compliant but doesn't render right in *any* browser. Please post a link. I'd be intersted in seeing it... And if you're right I'll promptly file a bug in bugzilla.
You seem to have missed the fact that he *built a camera out of a scanner*
He was impressed with the resolution, and I think it looks pretty good too.
The point was to try and build it, not try to create a perfect image... I'm sure you've seen better images with a 1.5 megapixel camera, that's what they're built to do... I'm sure we can also assume that the picture on the site was shrunk down with a sort of image program to make it more web friendly
Jesus Christ! 5.0?!? You're kidding right? There have been astronomical leaps and bounds since then. I know Mandrake, RedHat, and Suse have installers that are just as easy to use as Windows... If not easier, in that the install doesn't require 12 reboots. If you think of Linux as RedHat 5.0, it's about time for you to re-visit and give a modern distribution a try... I think you'll be pleasantly suprised.

To be honest, It was a while ago and I don't quite remember. I still have it installed, and it runs fine, but it doesn't run any different that vanilla wine.

...And it runs just as well as stock wine. I wonder how much proprietary stuff they add. Starcraft runs just as choppy as it does on regular wine.
At my work we use Password keeper. It's a windows program, but it runs perfectly under wine... Just store your password file in a central location that is accessible to all your workstations.

I don't know why I bother reading slashdot on April fool's day... Most of this drivel isn't really that funny. I'm making a commitment to skip reading for the rest of the day. Who's with me?
We all know that Openoffice users just about all of Star Office's code... But if they were the exact same, well... There wouldn't be 2 products. If I hear another person say "just download openoffice" I'm going to throw up. We all know that Openoffice is based on Staroffice code already. Jeez.
I post HTML to Usenet. Intentionally. And I will continue to do so.
That's your right... Don't be suprised if a certain percentage of users don't read your post because you unnecessarily post with red text in an ugly font.
Embrace and extend... Much like a few other companies I know of. If you want to use a window manager that doesn't look similar to windows, I know of a few, and they *all* are faster.
However... I don't think I could live without windows that snap to edges, tabs, and an "always on top" clip... You use Linux for a while and then switch to windows, the UI feels clunky. What about being able to change your window decoration and virtual desktops? There's plenty of places where KDE excels and Windows falls flat on it's face.
Well, I can tell you I've been running various linux distros on my 366 PII Dell Latitude with 128 megs of RAM and they run great. I can't see KDE3 being any different.
I said the article was the result of a quick google search... This has been a somewhat highly published claim over the past year or so and has created quite a stir in the scientific community...
You can say "probably" when most of the physicists believe this, which is not going to happen, any time soon, probably never.
That's an enlightened view, I imagine they said the same thing when it was proposed that the world isn't actually the center of the universe. You didn't even read the article did you?
Buy a book or something, there's good structured ways on how to engineer software...

It was found recently that the speed of light of light probably isn't constant... And yes, I'm sure there are better articles out there. That was a result of a quick google search.
The first time I ever installed Mandrake (7.1) was over the net via a boot floppy. Very simple... Simpler than my friend who was installing debian over the net... Also, I believe Mandrake was gone through several versions since then, while Debian is still on the exact same version. CDs are nice to have if you plan on doing multiple installations... Saves bandwidth in the long run.
Well, they've got a policy that says that their software goes open source when they go out of business, so they obviously do care that their customers don't get screwed... And I don't understand why you've put the word "customers" in single quotes.
The *point* is that if you've implemented a policy like this that there needs to be a provision for if you go out of business... And apparently there is.
I probably shouldn't reply to this cockmaster, but it is a somewhat valid response. They could send out an E-mail to thier customers when they "fucking are about to go about of business"... Since they kept a record of these when people registered. Such is the responsibility when implementing such a scheme. I'll host thier patch for em' for a few months. I doubt findind a distribution point would be all that difficult...
I would expect Ambrosia to put out a fix for this when they went under. It would be the right thing to do... If they truly valued the customers that kept them going for all those years. The point is that by doing this they hopefully won't go out of business.

My Geforce II titanium works great with the NVIDIA drivers. I don't care what the zealots think. They're closed source and they work great.
