Maybe schools in the states can get these and stop spending my hard earned cash on books. Oh wait, they already paid for them. I used the same book my mom used in high school (her name was on it!).
They can put a bubble around it, the point is to grow plants without the need to import nutrients from the earth, which would make growing plants on the moon moot. A dome can be made that can withstand the harsh conditions, and inside of the dome is enough atmosphere to sustain life.
I have no intentions of granting adobe access to anything I work on. I'm almost done getting off adobe products, I just need to find a good reader alternative for pdf on windows.
Houston rocks, and we still have wireless on the table. Chicago has the L, and San Fran has the lesbos, we'll have the wireless to attract the people to us!
It makes sense. If they can cut off the larger usage things, such as downloads of this nature, then the bandwidth usage will go down, resulting in cheaper bandwidth bills if they have the contracts setup that way.
In different words, you didn't think about licenses, you screwed up big time when you picked your original license, and now you're blaming the GPL for your poor choices.
No. Gah, why do I even try to have a sensible conversation with people on slashdot.
The license is fine, gplv2 works and all that, but you can like a license more than another license. For instance, I like steaks more than hamburgers.
But what's that you say?! It's all meat! You can't like one over the other!
Seriously, you're not making very much sense, and your arguments can be broken down very easily.
By distancing yourself from those goals, one has to conclude that it isn't your goal to keep Adium source code open, free, and available. So, for example, it wouldn't apparently bother you if Apple or Microsoft or some Chinese manufacturer takes your source code and distributes the binary without distributing usable source along with it, or if Microsoft slips in a piece of patented code (through an intermediary) and then a couple of years later demands licensing fees from anybody other than Novell customers, because that's what the bugs in the GPLv2 amount to.
A group of folks on the Adium team in fact like the BSD 3 clause more than the GPL. Why aren't you being honest then and switch from GPLv2 (which gives the appearance of preserving those freedoms but can't quite do it because of bugs) to the BSD license (which explicitly doesn't preserve those freedoms)?
A lot of people take the GPL to be the opposite of free, masquerading as free. However, we cannot switch to the BSD since we cannot get approval of all contributors, like I said earlier. We were investigating it in case we wanted to switch to even the lgpl at a later date, or some other random license, but it's proven most difficult, and not worth continuing.
We're going to have to do this with Adium as well. We are unable to contact some contributors to get their ok on using GPLv3, and rather than disrespect their contributions by pushing the bottom line of v3, we're going to have to keep using v2 since it's the license they submitted with.
I completely agree with this in either case. v3 is about pushing an agenda within a license from what I can tell, rather than sticking to what it is, a license. It's their license, fine, but pushing their own goals through it makes it even more restrictive to use the GPL than it already is. It's frustrating.
Get a job somewhere where you have to sell yourself. A restaurant, a car lot, some sales job in a store (best buy pays ok and you get discounts that aren't too shabby).
Anything you do, make your first one about selling yourself. It doesn't matter if it's relevant to your career, it only matters that you know how to get yourself out there.
I worked at a restaurant for 2 years, and 4 years I'm working at a nice place and making good money. My belief is that the lessons I learned at the restaurant were worth far more than anything I have learned at other jobs.
Plus you figure out how to talk to people outside of IT. IT folks aren't the most sociable. But getting into higher scale pay locations means you need to get past more normal people sometimes, which means figuring out how to interact with business folks without getting past "normals".
In my experience, a range of personal skills focused on the workplace is something you won't see at College, or a IT job. And those are the skills that will get you the furthest in a lot of cases.
Middle means the middle. I think what you have here would only place it at the center at the top. Could be wrong, just woke up and haven't had my booze yet.
CSS is a great idea, separating content from everything else. My problem with it is that it's such a horrendous beast of a thing to implement. For instance, there's nothing really good for say, putting something into "the middle" from what I can find. Now if there is, fine, don't make this question about the example. There are literally hundreds of design decisions that feel like they were implemented in a way to just make things as difficult as they can be.
Why is CSS such a pain compared to other languages?
Slashdot Mirror
I don't think it does.
How is this news?
Bye bye books. We'll miss you!

Those born in 1980 are golden though!

Cool. Honestly, I use it because it doesn't take 3 days to read+interpret the license.
I'd have to pull my project if you removed the 3 clause bsd.

The mac UI on wxwidgets sticks out compared to native apps, your statement isn't completely true.
I don't play it online, so the only point here is the game play. How is it "mind numbingly lame"?
But I have played Gears of War. Quite a bit, it's almost my favorite game now. How does Halo compare to Gears?

Just say no to .no!
I'm saying that your attacks on, and hostility towards, the GPLv3 are unwarranted and unfounded
I never attacked the gplv3. You read way too much into what was written.

at least the comedians can spot the problems.
Exactly what I meant, except you said it more betterer
The other candidates wouldn't matter, Colbert and Stewart would win by a landslide. I'd actually register to vote them into office.
The website is down already. mysql is such shit.

Maybe they just inserted a bit of wire into the mice?
