How about older opera users who identify as internet explorer?
I tried this. It didn't bring the splash screen up for me under opera even when id'ed as IE.
Another question: How come Grant Kari and Tory(sp?) all are mentioned by name in the opening credits where it just used to be Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman? Did they threaten to go on strike or something?
I did something similar, only I used tubgirl. you can read about it here. It was rather fun. I didn't create the image so my complaint wasn't that they were breaking my copyright or anything, just that they didn't bother to download the image and find their own host for it. This is a partial list of places that were linking to my image. Moochers.txt

At work we are replacing a bunch of file servers, and I just had to chime in with my totally unscientific benchmarks
All systems dell sc1600's 2 x 2.4 xeon's 1 gb ram, perc/3 dual channel raid card
for the highest usage server we did 5 x 36 raid 5 array 2 on one channel 3 on the other for ~ 100gig space + hot spare.
for the others we did 2 73's mirrored one on each channel.
All drives were same family from maxtor mark IV's i believe 10k's
In my rudimentary testing using hdparm -tT the mirrored drives performed at 75% of the level of the raid 5 for both read's and writes. i'm not quite sure what to read into that, but i think given = # of disk drives the mirror would probably outperform the raid 5 but i could be way off base. YMMV

What about game mods?
Halo 1 has a great "trainer" out there that lets you do some cool shiat, like shoot master chiefs out of the tank cannon, trade bodies with an enemy, super jump, never die, etc... I own halo 1, so am I a pirate by having a mod chip and copying games to my hdd, so I don't have to change discs to change games? Plus the load times are much faster loading from hdd than any optical media. I have never downloaded a game or even copied a rented game.
I guess I am of the opinion that I own the hardware I should be able to modify it as I see fit. wang33
I have to ask about your.sig granted I am by no means an everyday FF user my day to day choice is opera, but i have FF installed and use it for gmail and a few other sites. I am using build 1.0PR and it renders/. fine, and AFAICR.8 did just fine also. What version are you using? Inquiring minds want to know.
You mean like one of these things here
Seriously I really doubt you could put together any thing that would function as a portable xterminal for under 300$ which is about the street price for one these
Oh and you hade better add some more to your list there.
processor
High capacity battery
Electrical or Computer Engineering or similar degree to hook all the various bits together
Jeez man who pissed on your cheerios this morning? I was getting the source when i posted the original comment but it was coming down at less than 2k so i submitted and as you can now see there is a link to the source. Oh yeah thanks man for flying off the handle and publishing my personal details... I appreciate it greatly.
Also source file here, should be a little faster than negacao's line down to 1.86kb/s when i got the source from him(her?), but we shall see how good DreamHost is... Pad Lock Source
How about designing for the existing standards W3.org is a good place to start.
Anybrowser.org is another good one if you need convincing.
Nothing irritates me more than having a webpage not display properly in opera when I have chosen to let opera identify itself as opera, but renders correctly when I tell opera to identify itself as IE6.
This Quote probably sums it up best
"Anyone who slaps a 'this page is best viewed with Browser X' label on a Web page appears to be yearning for the bad old days, before the Web, when you had very little chance of reading a document written on another computer, another word processor, or another network."
The only reason they are doing this to stop the leakage of internal memo's about destroying linux etc. But I assume that employees will still be able to print emails, so its all kind of pointless imho.

Its hard to pirate hardware...
shouldn't it be -j3 for a dual core system? -j(n) where n = number of threads you can run + 1. on my dual xeon systems at work i use -j5...

too bad my mod points just expired.
Bravo on the George Carlin reference

Hello, Peter. What's happening? We need to talk about your TPS reports.
I thought the courts slowed/stopped the fcc from mandating anything like this? References in reverse chronological order

I mean if we are going to pay sco to use linux we might as well use something besides errno.h and abi eh?
But seriously I agree with the poster I love my sys-v init on SuSE
