  1. On a related note... on Can .NET Really Scale? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I just perused the Windows 2000 SP4 EULA and it states that it's against the licensing agreement to publish .NET benchmarks without Microsoft's permission. Why this was in the Win2k SP4 EULA is beyond me.

  2. Traffic Data on Hardware-Based Commute-Map Gadget · · Score: 1

    Does anybody know any sources on the internet to just get raw traffic data for any other places in the USA, most helpfully Massachusetts (Boston Metro?)

  3. Think about this. on Zynot Foundation Forks Gentoo · · Score: 1

    Where would "Open Source" be if every person who invested a large ammount of time in an open source project expected to be compensated in a business sense? Really if you want to be paid for the work you do, get a job.

  4. What to do with a GBA? ANYTHING! on Game Boy Advance SP Sells 1.1 Million in U.S. · · Score: 1

    I guess since everybody is being negligent in discussing the cool hacking opportunities for your GBA/GBASP I guess I'll have to step in.

    First of all there is a huge development community out there to get you started. Lots of libraries, utilities, and best of all, an ARM GCC port http://devrs.com/gba/

    And the ultimate in GBA hacking, the XPort. 16mb of more RAM, 16mb of flash, and a programmable FPGA make this in my opinion the coolest thing you can do with a GBA. Plus it's so affordable how can you NOT get it? http://www.charmedlabs.com/

    Second, forget Linux, it's too hefty. You may be able to do it with uncompressed flash and XIP, though. Who cares, here is a eCos port, though, from the same fine people who brought us the XPort. http://sourceforge.net/projects/gbaxport

    (I don't work for Charmed Labs, but they make such a cool product I wish I did. ;] )

  5. How fitting on Childhood Memories Ruined by the Internet? · · Score: 1

    I'm sure you'd all be tickled to learn that this individual lives in Redmond and apparently works at Microsoft.

  6. conspiracy theory on Russia Declassifies "Stealth" Warship · · Score: 1

    russia going to take over afghanistan? are we going to put those spiffy new cavation torpedos on board that sunk Kursk? that's some good stuff.

  7. Breaking the Microsoft monopoly in 1 easy step... on States Filing Alternate Remedy Proposal for MS Anti-Trust Case · · Score: 1

    Incase you guys forgot, it isn't Microsoft that has created the monopoly in the desktop PC market, it is the APPLICATIONS that made the monopoly for them. Why are people forced into using Windows? Because all the applications are written for it. How do you break this monopoly? Make it so the applications can be run on any operating system! Some of the ground in this has already been broken by such great things like WINE, Bochs and VirtualPC. Plus with a special development group with access to all of Microsoft's sources and government mandate that forced MS to sponsor this organization, well, that's a slam dunk. And suddenly Microsoft's grip seems a little less tight.

  8. Those of us from Santa Cruz already know this... on Neutrinos, Muons and the Standard Model · · Score: 1
  9. What Yahoo! doesn't want you to know... on Are There Large RDBMS Using Linux? · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Yahoo!'s databases are all Oracle running on FreeBSD. If that isn't a testament to which OS is superior, I don't know what is.
