It says that dvdrtools only runs on Linux, which I take to mean a Linux kernel.
However Debian run on other kernels such as hurd and bsd.
Although I don't know why, it is currently in the non-free Debian archive, which suggest
it too has some sort of DFSG issue.
I don't think many realise how much money Nintendo has and makes.
I remember when MS wanted to get into the console market they looked
at Nintendo and found they couldn't afford them.
What chance does Apple have?
It would probably be easier for Nintendo to buy Apple.
Congratulations on getting a working site after such a move
I had noticed the change, since now all the fonts are in bold
and huge on my system. It takes a couple of ctrl- to get them down to a normal size. Although minor things like this I imagine will be ironed out in due course.
It does not need to understand the fs of all systems it is to boot.
At minimum it needs to understand the fs that the stage2 files are stored.
You can then use the chainloader to boot the boot loader on an individual partition. eg the windows bootloader on your c: ntfs partition. ie the way you suggested
Of course if grub knows something about your kernel and the fs it is n, then it can do a lot more for you.
For me the main thing about grub is that it does not need to be configured in advanced, so it make a good rescue disk.
It maybe in there style guide. But I for one am not keen on UK's adoption of American terms/english esspecially if we already have ones of own that are fine.
Programme is correct.

I have been getting popups that appear to be some sort of floating frame.
Its not a seperate window but it stays ontop of your page until you click close
My concern is that what they label as 'close' could in fact do something else (now validatd with the fact it a user triggered event)
Obviously I would like to block these.
I guess its some sort of style sheet magic, so could a user style sheet stop them? (w/o destroying the rest of the page's style)
I would check their existing work against the w3c validator http://validator.w3.org/
and open them up in a selection of browsers.
Its is unlikely you will find any non trivial site that passes the validator, but you can see who's is worst.
You may not be that concerned about browser compatibility, but it does show how much care they take when writing their code (in case of dynamic) or html
You could go as far as putting it in their contract that their pages pass the validator.
But note that passing the validator is not absolute proof that the page is correct, just that the sgml/xml is valid.
Isn't this the point of things like kerberos. ie to provide single sign on in you network. so you don't have to remember lists of passwords.
integrate it with pam, and then you'll get a ticket when you log in, that will be used to authenticate you when you access things like ftp or mail server.
Ofcourse this wont help with off site login, but at the point you use them you have access to the already mentioned password safes or security managers (eg mozilla's psm or kde's wallet)
as to the oringinal point, the more checks you can do for good password the better, but a 3 month life undermines any effort made to generate a good password.
I dont see the point of changing passwords, unless you can't keep it to your self. most methods of gaining your password are not effected by its age (eg sniff the wire, brute force, social engineering(is subsequent password going to be any less dependant on your frame of mind then the last?)). Then, once 'they' have it, they're likely to install another method of access asap and then no longer dependant on knowing your password.
Do you have to be online every time you run the game?
Or just when you first run it, to unlock it?
(For single player that is)
If yes, then I wont be buying it any time soon, I have a modem connection with an account that is only available after 6 pm, until 8am. (why? money..)
I wont be able to play during the day...
I have two legal copies of HL1, for one reason or another...
...you only have to prepend 141 to the number your dialing to have your number blocked, also you can call BT and have them bar your number (which will also remove it from phone book listings) permantly.
For mobile phones there is and option in the phones menu to disable your ID.
I guess us silly british are just not as good at finding ways to extract money from people since all these services are free.
Does that 'used' hydrogen and 'waste' oxygen get to recombine again some how?
If hydrogen fuels (obtained from water) catches on, will we have a water shortage in a few millenia?
I know there is a lot of water on, in, floating around the earth, but its still a static quantity its not made is it?
Going even more extreme, this solar energy that the panels collect, would it have been reflected back out into space if we hadn't collected it? thus were still increasing the enery that stored up in earth atmosphere =)
A key dffierence between a BSD style licence and a GPL one is forking and merging.
BSD Allows unlimtied forks, but you cant merge forks back in (unless they remained BSD)
GPL Allows limit forks, but you can always merge forks back in.
What this means is if a competitor takes your GPL code, you can merge back any advances they made in their copy back into yours.
Thus in this respect the palying field is kept level.
Your advantages are that you were first, you know and undertand to code/product better, you reputation and such. Also if your code sparks interest you may end up with volunteers contributing.
In the end a competitor may be able to catch up with you if you open source, but they could not over take in this area.
In the UK, under the data protection act a company that holds data on people must register with the authorities, and must provide you with all data they hold on you if you request it (they are allowed to charge up to 10 pounds for things like "handling"). Also they should apply any corrections you give them.
Some Co. do try to not tell you, in the hope your dont know you rights, just point out you do.
in wales its "ab" and traditional surnames before they angloside them all to jones (note there is no J in welsh alphabet), williams, and roberts were ab [farthers name]. eg Huw ab LLyr. who sun could be Seriol ab Huw.. AFAIK/IIRC

Kernel 2.6.1 Released

They only need to allow access to the source to those people they gave binaries. So unless you bought it that does not include you.
OTH people who bought it, and thus have such, can redistrobute it. BUT only those parts/programmes that are under the GPL, there is some non gpl (and the like) stuff in there afai can tell.
So if they did, they should be careful to strip out the xandros apps, which would be pointless since you just removed what made it xandros.
I have to be honest I not read too much about openML, but we have had openGL and openAL for some time. So its not a far jump to openML.
Although I dont see any note of openAL, maybe they reinvented the wheel here
Yer I lost count of all the stagnent projects on there.
I didn't put my game on sf until after it was playable. But the again my game aint as ambitious as some.

It would probably be easier for Nintendo to buy Apple.
My guess would be UDF, since it seems some already have. eg For more file attribute or larger files support.
It may have been designed for Optical media, but it is suited to any ROM with/without some sort of limited write support. eg Flash memory.
