The matrix franchise is OVER. They had something going in the first movie. The sequels were absolutely butchered. So is every video game.
Some people said the original was only good because the plot was a copy of Neon Genesis. When the original was over, the W Brothers proved they had zero screenwriting talent.
I don't know if this is good or bad. It's like adding a cultural elements to an encyclopedia?!
It's like going to an official Ford dealer and seeing Saleen's modded mustang in addition to the regular Fords. It adds confusion but at the same time more info and variety.
The reason so many stayed away from Javascript was the revealing code. Any browser could have you peek at the developer's work. I knew alot of developers that had a problem with that. They would rather write a slow piece of shit java applet compiled. Javascript was always lightning fast.
This is the apparently sad trend in U.S IT industry.
HR fires all the techies and IT folks. Gets bit in the ass by adware and spyware. Comes back with a lawyer and a new bullshit position, Chief Privacy Officer.
These are the little things the back of the box don't tell you. It's also the same reason why I have avoided WoW for the time being. The sad part is, when they are done working out the kinks, the game is probably no longer popular.
Don't worry. In capitalism it's a matter of time before all companies merge together or get bought out with just a few big companies left in the end. Look at the auto industry. MS-Googlemart-Amazonhat, here they come.
Aix has by far the most solid and guaranteed-to-work patching system among any OS in the market today. Among other aspects like san, device drivers, reliability... I am making my judgement after hitting deep with almost every flavor of commercial unix with the exception of SCO.
I am still highly confused as to why IBM is pushing linux so much harder than Aix. I would however favor the merging of Aix and Linux into a single OS supported by IBM. What they are doing now makes no sense.
For any company confident enough to claims they have lost 100,000 copies in revenue. They need to also claim they have increased their market share by 100,000 users.
Threat?! If anything Apple has always been the careful adopter of safe and stable technology. Apple basically confirmed x86 as the safe and stable processor type of the future. Which linux is already a beneficiary...
You are giving the GBA emulators alot of credit. I have a friend who plays with this stuff, and I was disappointed to see the emulation results on his GBA. Hellish slow frame rates to incompatibility with most games. And that's being generous.
Speaking of Konami I BEG someone to recreate a new 2D castlevania game. There hasn't been another good 2D castlevania title since Sympony of The Nights in the 90s. The mario game is a great idea, but the castlevania series is long overdue in need of a good followup.
Why are people so anxious to try this? Sun never had a history of getting any x86 OS in good working order. The x86 version of solaris 7, 8, 9 were absolutely horrible.
If they couldn't do it with a full strength company then, what makes you think they can do opensolaris with half the company laid off?
I was convinced after the big Cisco 6509 series, there would never be another need for more wired cisco networking hardware.
With the exception of the san switches MDS line, I feel everything else released after the 6509 are surpluses. Literally released to fill marketing needs.
Disney need to do a serious focus group research with today's kids. I have a number of relatives aged 10 to 13. These kids were never taught to hate Disney, but they absolutely think it's lame.
They highly favor Yugiho/Pokemon over Mickey mouse for example. Is it me or are Japanese the only ones creating fucked up anime-ish characters for kids? Americans play their character creation process too safe, fearing political correctness. In the end American characters are boring.

I am not convinced Googlebot works. I have a website with a robot.txt begging for the Googlespiderbot to come by, and it still hasn't.
The page is still not available on Google, and I don't even care about ranking high. Every other search engine has found the site except Google.

The software industry in general is smart enough to rephrase "Reverse Engineering" to "Re-engineering" to make it more legally acceptable nowadays.

Does anyone else think Gran Turismo 4 looks actually better than Forza sports? Point being, the console world is always 50% hardware, 50% software.

With Halflife2, the graphics were not the problem. Is the gameplay being so downright boring and repetitive.
OUCH. That's harsh. You must have never been in the trenches with a need to type pages after pages with Vi.

Well, I have heard a couple good things about Fedora core 4 today. Maybe it's time to give up Gentoo and swing back to the Redhat bandwagon.

You sure it's not "Weapons of Mass Destruction"?
Why do you bring up characters that aren't even created by Disney? Did you even read the article?
Another annoying AC.

In other news, Utah's male population decreased 80% after this slashdot article.
It's only natural for Linus himself to promote a unix under his name (Linux) versus a unix under the name of University of Berkeley (BSD).
Well if you want to talk about best package management overall, nobody comes close to Aix.
Shouldn't even bother bragging Mac over linux. Cause Aix makes Mac look ordinary. You can even update patches in Aix going from 1 to 2, 2 to 3 etc.
