If you think this is cool, you should also check out the HP Itsy. You interact with said device by holding it at different angles, and hitting one button. Yes, you can play Doom like that:)
Yesterday I was torrenting away trying to get QNX for a few hours straight, at unbelievably slow rates. But NOW you slashdot it so I can get faster. Oh, THANKS. Generally it's a good thing to download something before it gets/.'ed, but in this case it's better after... *sigh*:)

Open-source OSes on Handheld Devices

Palmtop NetBSD

· Score: 4, Interesting
For those of you out there who own a Compaq/HP iPAQ, and would like to run an Open-source OS on it, it is currently possibly to run Linux on it, thanks to HP's Cambridge Research Labs, and of course many contributors around the world. For more, please visit Handhelds.org. (For what it's worth, I am the person who is porting Linux to the iPAQ h1910 - and no, I am not paid by HP.)
Er, what the hell? Bombing Iraq will only lead to more hatred of the United States around the world. And how do you know there will be another terrorist strike, and that bombing the shit out of Iraq will fix it?
AltParty is not always the most popular of the demoparties - usually there is Mekka, but this year they have cancelled it. Speaking from the perspective of an 8-bit GameBoy scener, I can only hope that this doesn't have a negative impact on the scene - luckily there's Breakpoint this year. 8-bits still rock!
--j P.S. if any of you langaymers are trying to get into Breakpoint, good luck. we DON'T allow gamers in, you'll be deemed 'non-creative' and possible ejected.
Dr. Love thinks that a relationship between microsoft and linux has a reasonable chance of working out, but on the other hand, it might not. Your relationship may suffer good and bad times. If things might not be working out as you would like them to, do not hesitate to talk about it with the person involved. Spend time together, talk with each other.
It was cool when the iPod was the first easily usable MP3 player with a hard drive that fit in a small space. It was cool when they got linux support. It might've been cool if it was engraved with RMS' signature or CowboyNeal's, or even maybe Steve Jobs'. But remind me one more time why I, a geek/nerd/this/that/whatever, care about this? IANATroll, but this has gone a little too far with the 'slashvertisements'.
Ah well. I can see my karma dropping now. Mods, do your worst...
I know - I'm an avid 8-bit scener. Although I don't like to admit it, yes, I released 'JWDEMO' for GBDEV2002, but EFNet:#gameboy is working on putting something together to blow you away for Breakpoint!!!
Insert mandatory troll about why the only reason this was posted on Slashdot was because it's bashing Microsoft... Sorry guys, sorry guys, I got here first, nyah nyah. *exit left*
RIP Mekka. We will miss you. Apparently the organizers had some disputes they couldn't resolve. However, if you missed Dreamhack, Breakpoint looks like it's going to be the party to go to, with many of the organizers from mekka and other demoparties. (Note: FPS people need not apply - no gaming allowed, no warez allowed. sorry.) Hope to see you there!
like... my Linux box, it like went beep beep beep, and half of my... like... pr0n was gone. I like switched to Apple so like they don't like let you view pr0n without like viewing adverts so like it convinced me that I don't like need to view it.

Is ActiveX moral? I think the answer would be no, unless implemented right.
or does this sound remarkably like something leading up to Michael Crichton's Prey?
Er, what the hell? Bombing Iraq will only lead to more hatred of the United States around the world. And how do you know there will be another terrorist strike, and that bombing the shit out of Iraq will fix it?
Fun with tweaking.

Everywhere around the net, people complain about that - and I've decided to do something. So, he CRACKED in, not hacked in, kthx :)

Or maybe not. Oh yes. And this comment is ROT26 encrypted so if you read it you're violating said law. kthxbye

Add a ~16 byte string to the packet header. Copyright that string. Then you can sue {over-pee-er|OverPeer} for it.

I'm not your religion. Neither is everyone else in the world. Didn't see anything like this for Chanukkah, and I'll bet we won't see it for Kwanzaa.

Yeah, Chris can't spell. He and Rob should form a club.
That should be, "Rob and him." Just your correction corrector doing his job, no need to worry ma'am.
