I don't mean to troll but are there any books on CD with DEEPER content? It would be very nice if there was an comprehensive online library, unlike Wathmorld, that contained useful knowledge.
We should appoint Goatse.cx man. As of late, we can be sure that what he pulls out of his ass will be of much higher quality than what Linus has been putting out:)
Since the FSF is (indirectly) attacking many companies, some of whom WILL seek legal means to shut this community down, shouldn't we make ourselves seem more threatening to bait them so that we can give them a public relations problem;).
Impaled Nazarene - I'm the Killer of Trolls
Sun goes down and trolls crawl out of their holes
I am waiting the fuckers with my blow-torch
chorus:
I am the killer of trolls, I show the fuckers no remorse
I execute trolls by burning down the fucking fjords
Sun goes down - execution time
Time has arrived for mayhem, destruction and extinction!
The gmp speed chart shows that the Alpha overwhelms the Athlon with its very fast multiplication instruction. Other than that, even the P4 performs faster in other simpler instructions such as moving data around (as shown in lshift and rshift). This chart should be "relatively" unbiased since they have worked pretty hard optimizing the Alpha and Athlon assembly routines.
Have you ever tried to use something other than bladeenc? It seems that the faults are in the mp3's rather than in the CD audio, try listening to the wav files and tell us if you hear any artifacts. The mp3 format has some strange frequency distortions above 16khz so you might also want to look into that. If you do want to make mp3's, please use Lame or not-Lame. Bladeenc is inferior to everything else by such a wide margin (its amoung the slowest encoders and it produces mp3's with some VERY noticable artifacts).
Releasing buggy operating systems without extensive testing sounds like a certain software company we all love to hate. I guess the Linux developers are trying to get the same level of prominance as Microsoft by mimicking them at the deepest level.
Cyclic groups are integers modulo n where n is 2,4,p^m,or 2*p^m where p is an ODD prime. This means that (mod 2^m) is not a cyclic group while (mod 3^m) is. Cyclic groups have manifested themselves in numerous cryptographic and number theory applications and ternary computers can implement a (mod 3^m) group as quickly as a binary computer can implement a (mod 2^m) field, all you have to do is discard the most significant digits
I have been trying to implement a Number Theoretic Transform based multiplication system and not being able to choose a power of two as my modulus is causing a major speed loss. Even though switching to a ternary base (in hardware) would not lead to more than a linear speed difference, having low level functions run two to eight times faster, and doing away with the ugly code used to modulo a prime) is nice.
"the kid has to get the parent to either add or remove the movie to the [sic] mahcine's allow/deny list"
Which machine? What if the kid finds a machine with an empty deny list. Are we going to have to mandate that every player must have full deny by default and anyone in possesion of a machine with a lax policy and kids have ready access to this machine will be held responsible?
We can finally see Jar Jar binks getting sodomized, killed, and his body fed to a band of Ewoks? I really like this idea of increasing the rating of a movie.
From my experience, conservatives are rather unhappy with the ACLU. This might seem counterintuitive but the very act of supporting a cause, by a despised entity, can significantly harm it. If the ACLU were to stay out of these civil liberties issues, I don't care about rather they defend other issues though, maybe more conservatives would put more thought into rather we should abolish certain liberties.
The PCI Cryptographic Coprocessor encapsulates a 486-class processing subsystem [...]
It serves the banks right to loose stock value and public trust. Who would want their finnancial lives dependent on an array of 486's (probabily SX class since banks don't really do floating point calculations;-) ). No offense to those of you who have P5 servers running linux-1.2 with an uptime of 6 years but I don't want to my give money to someone who uses archaic devices.
Excepting games, virtual reality has faded away because there is no killer app for it. Back in the 80's and early 90's, the media, and most of the public, thought that computer interfaces should mimic reality as much as possible. Today, however, Joe Public realizes that VR would be less efficient than whatever interface he is using (even M$ is better than 3dwm, sadly). Right now, games are the primary manifestations of VR because they fulfill an usefull purpose. Until we find another use for VR (pr0n comes to mind), we will continue to see most VR only in games.
As a (GPA=2.5) biology major, I can tell you that a lipid (saturated fats especially), contain hydrogen at much higher densities than water. This being said, we could easily find large quantities of fat (couch potatos sitting in front of their computers all day, government agencies and other wasteful spenders, spam,....) to supply the quantities of hydrogen we need. Fat is also much less dangerous than many other substances and saturated fat is a solidm meaning that you can get a chunk of purified fat and send it through your fuel cell (methinks).
I wonder if you could construct a computer in such a way that only ONE motor rotates your hard drive platters, optical discs (stacking perhaps?), metal platter floppies (????), and circulate and decompress the coolant for the hot areas. This way, almost all the noise will be isolated to that one motor and you might even be able to exploit the decompression of the coolant as a means for rotating the axle system.

Shouldn't they also release a 2.5.1 to fix their little screw-up?
This might not be that great in a graph theory class since most of what you need to master this game is being taught.
