Okay, I have the ideas of a mesh (aka net-through-clients) network, just... how does the WiFi cards do it?!? Or do we have to have the software impliment the mesh?
Is the Leadtek a BTTV chipset card? Inquiring minds want to know if it's already supported.:) I'm on my second card, and that one's not working so well.
Of course, all that matters is how much bandwith you need. Firewire, maybe?

This is on a laptop where you have more direct access to the CF card (via a PCMCIA adapter).
I know, I'm burning up the CF card. Anyone know where I can find a ramdisk-in-a-PCMCIA card?

Swap improving performance... yeah. On slow systems and low memory, every byte freed up helps. But not swapping in the first place is good too.
I'm now expermineting with replacing various tools with smaller versions, such as dropbear, udhcp, tinylogin, and buzybox. I'm also slowly writing up a "exec and restart shell afterwards" utility called PivotShell.
Hardware wize, I have swap on a CF drive. 32 megs so far, but if I can afford larger CF drives, I'll format 'em as swap and use them.
Why all of this? 40 megs swaps to HD, and on a laptop, any HD access sucks battery power. When you're using Xfree (or even Kdrive) and Firefox, you're going to swap. Period.
Btw, I do believe that somebody took over adti.net.
I don't think the Alexis de Tocqueville institute ever had humor (they certainly used to take themselves very seriously), but their site today is filled with jokes.
Maybe they forgot to pay their DNS registration fee, and some enterprising person decided to play a joke on them? Or maybe their clocks are running a month-and-a-half late?
Or is it really unintentional?

Hmmm... Linus may be right. The story broke the same day it updated. I wonder who's serving the old DNS.
Two rips from the Fantastic Four. (ElasticMan, Invisible Girl) Another two from Superman and/or Shazam. (Superman/Shazam and Luthor) Fifth from The Flash. Sixth from Iceman (X-Men?)
Okay, we have a GeForce and a Radeon in parallel. What's the communication protocol that's running over PCI Express that allows them to do that?
Something tells me you need special drivers AND/OR a standardized graphic card accellerator protocol just to pull it off, otherwize you're stuck with two of the same cards.
I've been able to get Slack in under a half gig drive (8.0 on a 486) and Slack-current on a 813 meg drive. Now how about everyone else? Can you cram Gentoo in under a gig of HD space?
I've used all four in comic artwork, and here's my option:
[b]PHOTOSHOP:[/b] A bit overkill, but it's the best for most any application. It's better on a Mac, though, than on a PC, due to interface issues.
[b]GIMP:[/b] Next best thing, I can do almost 100% of the stuff I can do in Photoshop. Speeding stuff up (like employing multiple CPU's or servers) will help, and 16-bit/channel may help photo artists.
[b]Paint Shop Pro:[/b] If it's what you got and you can't get the others, it'll do. Most of the stuff above you can do.
[b]Photoshop Elements:[/b] DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT GETTING THIS!!! BAD! BAD!! The interface is confusing for even old Photoshop users, and to think I used Photoshop *BEFORE* going with Gimp!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVVVVVIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!
Most of the time, you (the common user) don't need something heavy-handed as Photoshop. You just need to tweak Gimp/PSP to use more memory. I have it using half of 1.5 gigs here, may push it back up to a full gig. That speeds filters up fast (when you don't have to swap!)
This one needs the largest mallet the legal community has -- and that is Welborne. He was able to smack down the spammers who dared to sue Spamhaus.org and SPEWS at the same time.
I was looking for some colocated servers to help KeenSpace out, and ran across Rackspace. Poof, the Java window opens up. So I get the person, who I explain what I was looking for, and she says "I'll have a sales rep contact you via email."
While I wait for an email, I check RackSpace's SBL listings. Ohhhhh nice long list.
Got the email, string the rep along for a bit, and then said "You've got some good offers, but until you start removing spammers (see this URL) I doubt we will give you our cash for service."
That's what I'm looking for. IF it turns out that Maryland was one, I'm forwarding this to my local press and try to raise awareness of a massive privacy violation.

No, Microsoft will just open up a lawsuit against a John Doe, do a proper subpeona to the ISP for the name and info, and go from there.

Then how can you even get to the point of gaining a licence for folks to use when you get turned away with your own viewer that works?
By your point, all the vheicles that have been modified on the show Monster Garage are not street legal!
Oh great. We're now giving kids IP addresses so their parents can ping them. What it going on now?
Excuse me while I compile IPv6 on my systems. We need it now.
If Sun suddenly dies (as many have been doing in the industry), who is left to maintain the code?
Don't say "Oh that won't happen." We've heard that before -- and it did. The question now is alot of their code "who's going to maintain/support it?"
I have an intresting story about that.

I heard about this on the 5pm newscast here in Maryland. Echostar/DishNetwork pulled out a Baltimore station from their lineup.
Of course, it was an NBC station who reported of the CBS station being yanked. The CBS station however was owned by CBS.
