....CS students will still need to know MS products and programs that are Windows based.
Industry is what, 99%, Windows based?
Funny you never hear of any 'Windows does good' posts on/.
What do you expect from a linux fanboy site?
You lot aren't going to go 'Linux sucks!'
I am surprised/. doesnt do a Westwood and deletes all anti-linux comments.
COZ WE ALL KNOW LINUX IS FAULTLESS!!1
I submit a story about 'Red Hat CEO saying linux wont win the desktop war but will win the internet one' and it gets rejected.
And shit topics like this get accepted. And OT topics, nothing to do with fusking computers, get accepted too!?!
Has/. going up its own ass altogether? Turned into a ultra zealous linux fanboy that wont even open up the discussion that linux has flaws too?
The actual Quake 3 game uses models that are only 1000 polys total. The 10k figure is used is a pre-game process to calc the shadows of the model.
Models in Doom3 will only be a similar fraction 0f the quoted 250k polys.
..Im a complete n00b at networking.
But why is it a crime to have more than 2 computers access a cable modem?
Just that I have 4 hooked up in a LAN and all four share the one 56k modem.
Cool, I thought I was the only one who actually liked Space: Above and Beyond.
Pity they killed off most of the cast at the end.
Most memorable part of that show was the alien mines which shot out two laers at 45 degree angles to the ground and they arced into the others position like a scissor movement. Brilliant.
If a class of a hundred are taught in the same way and they are given the same assignment, how similar are all 100 assignments going to be?
They are going to be virtually identical in coding style, as theyve been taught the same way!
The only differences will be layout, comments and variable names. But any good faker will know to change these anyway.
So whats the point?
"Given a concurrent demographic comparable to Napster (assuming equally balanced), searching for a simple 18 byte string "grateful dead live" unleashes 90 megabytes worth of data to be transmitted."
90MB!
British Telecom have truly fucked the UK in becoming a high tech business players in europe. You really have to pay throught the nose for their crap services. In fact the only way I can get anything other than 56k is to get satellite broadband costing me £900 to install and £90 per month after that.
In Ireland its even worse. Eircom do not even provide a flat rate monthly payment dial up so the chances of cheap broadband are extremely low.
The US seems like an nethead paradise in comparison.
is going to mean a more secure and better one in the future.
Microsoft will learn from the drubbing XP is getting. Thankfully most people dont upgrade automatically once a new OS is out. They wait till is becomes standard, then upgrade.
Wait til the successor of XP (granted, how many years that takes) it will be superior.
By that time hopefully Linux will have a foothold strong enough to contend with them.
Well theres going to be a lot of tech guys for the computers to run the complicated key generations. Can you imagine trying to get two 128 bit primes (or whatever bit primes it takes to get a 128 key)? And keep a record of them?
I live in europe and we consider the US attempts to restrict encryption and media as a running joke.
So the US government can save a few billion in pirated stuff. But that pales in comparison to the rest of the world.
Slashdot Mirror
Or maybe use MPEG-4 for defragging!
Obviously the writer knows nothing about Doom3.

A full 10 hours after I submited it.

But they dont.
This place is a zealous linux fanboy site.
I tried to submit an article on what Red Hat CEo said about linux losing the desktop war. Did they print that? Like feck they did.
But every word Gates says gets printed.
Go. figure.

Theres a 1980s porno caled Star Whores. Now how come Lucas didnt go after that. Afterall it sounds more like Star Wars than Star Ballz.
To prevent it from being stolen or the tech inside it taken. Id hate to be the one to insure the thing too.

But truthfully X-Files should have been killed off 3 series ago.

and a faster one will be out
...the hackers in that area are going to get some fresh air and excercise while they travel around looking for wireless LANs to break into.

Yeah, and you dont know if theres back doors into the thing written by someone else. Or if its effective.
So youll see big hairy roadies blowing into them between songs!
...by putting the speakers on the water and blasting shit pop at them.
...so they float about the room.
LOL Dont forget about inputting lost data when the battery goes out.
