It takes a week to go thru a book. It takes an hour to go thru a TV show. If you plan on educating people based on books alone, you are educating them with the slowest medium possible.
Rational rose good suggestion, unfortunately it's just not something students will be able to afford.
I feel bad for students nowadays to have to deal with these gigantic assignments in schools who never provide enough resources. But thats a different story altogether.
Technically xbox 360 is the first ever "rushed" console. M$ can rush windows OS out the door and get some hotfixes later. But I am curious to see how this console holds up assuming people really don't want to do console firmware upgrades.
If someone wants their podcast show to succeed, they would have to put it on iTunes, Yahoo, and at least a couple other podcast sites. How about a single site that uploads to the multiple destinations for you. Maybe that's what people need instead.
The politicians are trying to do something about this problem and giving it a fancy name. The bad contracts, service, signal receptions should have been ALL resolved automatically without customers intervention.
Can you imagine every car company selling all their models as off-road vehicles. And then claiming it's not their fault when the car doesn't work in the mud. Not only that, but you are tied up to some piece of paper.
That was a good link. But what is the cheapest NAS solution out there at a terabyte capacity? It wouldn't surprise me if there is already some linux software NAS emulator.
Yeah what is up with arcade games nowadays. $1 for a fucking steer on a racing game. I can understand the good games, but Daytona USA still charges $1 for a few laps. Every console racing game at home is already better than Daytona. Why not lower the price.
That is so true. Going from Genesis to Saturn/PS1, I remember buying an all time low 1 game that year. I asked myself if that was actually the end of video games for me at that point. Then Twisted Metal and Tekken came out, and I was back again.
The 2 states that have contract positions paying $60/hr consistently is NY and CA. The rest of the country rarely go above $50, and that goes for even the most hardcore tech positions. The contracting market is IMHO dead compared to couple years ago when it was actually worthwhile to take some chances.
And 401k is absolutely overrated. You save by evading tax now. But if you didn't evade tax and withdraw the amount, tons of financial companies have better ways to make greater gains with your money.
Don't laugh. EA has held lots of publicity events to give away Madden in the past. It increase their market share immediately and it cost them nothing to burn copies after copies. Now that TakeTwo's ESPN NFL is gone, and EA pwns the NFL, they can ride low publicity gear for some time.
They should also stage a fake riot and hire teenagers to pretend to run away with sony equipment in case the hacker succeed in creating a complete financial meltdown. Let's make it real.
There is a decent sized market out there where organizations don't need a complicated schema or fancy features. I have seen places where MySQL is heavily preferred due to speed and liteness.
They just want to do your average query on a fairly large db, but do it fast, hella fast. They'd rather put MySQL on a fast proprietory filesystem. Stripe and load balance off some fast storage arrays. And just blast away.
Nintendo's counter pirate strategy is just contradicting. They always try to market games to the youngest crowd possible, especially pre-teens. But that segment does not pirate nearly as much as the aged 20 to 30 group?
As long as they have real product ads in Gran Turismo, it feels real. I don't care if it's Dominos pizza instead of Dunlop tires. Try playing old 8/16bit racing games like Radracer and Super Hangon with no advertisements. The environment doesn't feel quite right.
Yep that was the first one that came to mind. But Oracle on redhat AS enterprise has improved a great deal compared to Oracle on early redhat 7, 8, 9s.
Sony BMG Music Entertainment should just split up as far away from Sony Electronics as possible. It's an embarrassement to the rest of the console and hardware divisions. Sure it is bringing in money like any other record company, but in terms of gaining DRM ground, it's been useless.
Slashdot Mirror
Why does no one ever complain about games on the iPod. Their pong is no better than cellphone blackjack.
I am more curious about the rendering software on the redhat system that knows how to "symmetrically" use that many processors on the cluster.
So it is not an addiction if you visit coffee house after coffee house.
But it is an addiction if you visit internet chat rooms after chat rooms.
The ratio of advertisement increase on hotmail is directly proportional to the MB increase.

If I bought a magazine and all the articles were blocked by Ads, I'd be pretty pissed.
And if I had to pay extra $$$ to read the same magazine with the articles unblocked, I'd be even more pissed.

It was probably a real idea except the people on slashdot trashed it so fast, they cancelled all project plans asap.

Soldier: Sir the unit took out the enemy sniper sir.
Commander: Excellent!
Soldier: Sir the unit also shot 2 ducks for dinner sir.
Commander: Excellent!
Soldier: Sir the unit also shot our spy sir.
Commander: Damn. Just reload for next mission.
Soldier: Nothing is left sir, the unit used all 7000 rounds on a plastic helmet with a smiley face.

They must be selling the engine middleware on amazon.
