One thing I've noticed that could be a cause, is that the ease of publishing information online causes more people to do so. When you're putting a book together, there is a significant time and money cost to doing so, and thus any publisher will want to make sure it's *really* worth doing.
That said, I've read some horrific published books, and some fantastic online work, but for the most part, books (especially from reputable publishers such as O'Reilly) tend to be higher quality.
Why on earth you'd want to transcode from.m4a to.mp3 is totally beyond me (think quality losses). The only thing you should need is to strip out the encryption.
Linux tends to be very aggressive with RAM usage, it'll throw as much into memory as it can, and throw it out if needed (things like disk caches, cached program code).
If you run free and look at the -/+ buffers/cache line, it gives you a closer figure.
There is a limited amount of the radioactive waste from a reactor, and we know exactly where it is. It's in that absurdly solid container over there, as opposed to billowing out into the environment to be "forgotten" about.
You're right, Awake is fantastic; I love Space-Dye Vest... it's sad that they've never done it live but I can see why they wouldn't.
Train Of Thought took a while to grow on me, but I wouldn't want anyone to take it away (saw them perform it live in Manchester earlier this year).
Then again, the first DT song I heard was A Change of Seasons so I got thrown in at the deep end, so to speak.
I still wouldn't class disc 2 as a single song, it has discrete elements all of its own; granted, I would listen to it end-to-end, but each song can be heard in its own right. Wasn't there a radio version of Solitary Shell?
You're referring to Scenes From A Memory? An excellent album, probably one of my favourites (Home still makes me shiver, every time). As far as the story itself goes, it's a bit bland, but the music more than makes up for it.
Story-wise, I like The Who's Tommy, it's conceptually interesting:)
The second CD of Dream Theater's Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence springs to mind here, it's only 42 minutes or so long, but doesn't need to be any longer.
(Good album, by the way, if you don't mind really depressing lyrics).
When I had a crash (airbag didn't deploy, I wasn't going fast enough), the rescue guy took off the handbrake from the back seat, citing an AA (UK Automobile Association) man's death when he leaned in from the front, airbag deployed, and broke his neck.
Effective in the right conditions, but I'd want to be careful around one.

Microsoft already did that when they turned Windows XP into a Fisher-Price exec's bad dream.
I doubt NETI@home will use a significant amount of your CPU time.

You ain't seen nuthin' yet

Helps when our ex-board admin develops vBulletin.
Mmmmm...stress testing
how are they planning on enforcing this? It's completley pointless.
But in this case you are depriving them of their million dollars, no?

Shame the programming isn't all that hot either...
Sounds like systrace.
Hey man, turn the lights on.

What d'ya mean they're already on?
Death to the bell:
no bells
Old versions of NT4 work on Alpha and MIPS...
Everyone with a cat knows that you are really the cat's pet/slave ;)
"Typical settings" doesn't actually work, though.
"Oh yeah hey Windows, please give me some random IP in a bizarre range and don't tell me what it is until I learn how to actually look for it..."
We put in a couple of Axel ethernet terminals to replace the old IBM ones. Standard PC keyboard/monitor, own IP address so no controller needed.

XMMS does the 'q' trick as well, they added it in one of the recent versions (most likely took the feature from WA 5).

Hit 'j' to jump to a specific track in Winamp. Quicker than scrolling :)

Isn't that just constructive dismissal? Illegal here (UK) as far as I knew.
