The MIPS R4k chip is a CPU, not a graphics processor. I have a PDA with an R4k as well, but they don't do 3d. It wouldn't really have made much sense to put them on GFX cards. Sorry to burst your bubble.
Well, in your situation, Party A wrote the software, they can do whatever they want with it. In other words, party A has to be the one to put the GPL on their own code. If they do, then they are obviously pro-freedom. If they don't, then the Code isn't GPL'd. In other words, everyone has distribution rights for GPL'd code.
If party A just modified someone else's code, a-la the linux kernel, then gave out the software with a special contract not allowing distribution, then they would be violating the GPL. Which would mean that by distributing the code that they modified they would be breaking copyright law, and Linus or anyone who contributed to the Kernal could "DMCA" their ass, so to speak.
It's not due to the wavelength. The wavelengths of visible light are mesured in nano meters. Most LCD pixles are mesured in millimeters (well, fractions of mllimeters I guess)
The reason we need less resolution on blue is because blue isn't picked up by our eyes as well.
Child-Rape is the only law that applies to US citizens outside of the US. If you went to another country and shot somone, then came back, you wouldn't be charged with murder if it wasn't illegal in the country you were in.
Also, US law does not apply to non-US citizens when out side of the US. If dimitry Skylarov fucked a 15 year old in thailand before he came to the US he wouldn't be charged with child-rape a long with got here.
Credit Card Fraud is illegal in Russia. Chances are, if something isn't illegal just about everywhere (such as murder, real theft, etc) then it probably isn't a big deal.
I'm sorry, but at first blush what he was doing would not seem inocent to anyone. He was cracking passwords, and sent out some VPs password to other people. He was also not a fully employee and didn't authorization to do what he was doing.
He may not have meant any harm by what he did. And when you look closer you can see that. But what he did does not seem innocent in any sense of the word.
Yeh, now mod me flamebait like that first post AC. God forbid we should go against the Editors

You can't actualy go blind from looking at the sun. I have no idea where that idea came from. I looked into the sun all the time as a kid. It hurt a little and can degrade your vision if you do it a lot, but it isn't going to be the last thing you ever see. Evolution isn't that stupid.
WTF? Taiwan was created when the capitalist government fled as Mao's CCP took over the mainland. In fact the Republic of China on Taiwan claimed to be the legitemate government of all of china for a long time. Up untill the 1970s they were recognized by the UN as such.
I do really like English for its expressive power. I don't know Chinese that well but I have a feeling that even if I did I still wouldn't be quite as 'flowery' with my language as in English.
One thing that always bugged me about these 'synthetic' languages is that they all try to be super-logical and easy to learn. I always thought it would be cool to create a language optimized for complexity and expressiveness of connotation.
Actually, it comes standard on win2k and can be downloaded for 9x. Don't know about Linux though. Just do a google search for "Chinese IME windows" etc. Of course you'll need to know Pinyin to enter simplified and Bopomofo (I think) in order to type it in.
Actualy the ablity to spell has little to do with that. According to the standardized tests I've taken, I'm in the top 7% of collage students.
That's totaly irrelevent, however. As we are not talking about my ablity to classify squids, but rather the researchers in comparison to some slashdotter who read a Yahoo! news story about it. If you had any kind of intelegence, you would realize this. My intelegence has nothing to do with their ablity to classify squid.
I think more americans (at lest geeks) are familiar with "kanji" then "hanzi". Besides if I wrote "hanzi" they would go off saying "han-zee" like a bunch of morons. That problem is not as pronounced kanji
I didn't say they all lived in the same city, dumbas. There are hundreds of millions of urban americans yet by your logic we would only have 30 million or so (going by that list, only two of our cities are listed)
China has had these issues for thouands of years and remained a consistant whole for almost all of that time. Who knows what'll happen in the future, but I seriously doubt a long term breakup is in the works

Of course, the "government" would only make things worse if they get (more) involved - it's up to us to fix this!
Um, who do you think it was that invented the DNS system? Who do you think ran it before NetSol and gave domain names out for free?
So, one billion dollars is "rougly zero"? (4g cash + 25g owed = 29g total)

So now we get the lovely blury pixles of CRTs on LCD. Wonderfull.
Personaly, I'd rather stick with a nice crisp display.

Perhaps this could be used in tracking down counterfiters
Well, only if the counterfiters are stupid enough to put real chips in their fake money...
He was in jail for a couple weeks. then they let him out on bail.
can we pressure the Russsians to round up and arrest any/all Adobe employees in the country and lock 'em up?
No. We can't.

He's talking about directed 802.11, not Omnidirectional. omnidirectional WiFi dosn't get nearly that range

Way to go, "moron"!
Must suck for all those people who baught Be at it's IPO price of $6.
