You know what saddens me? That people here mention the DMCA, the Patriot Act, PA2, and seem to think the EFF is the premier organization to counter them.
I understand the EFF being closer to the hearts of nerds, but the natural organization to support is the ACLU (and the EFF).
The EFF is not the number 1 group for privacy rights in America. I think the ACLU would be that group. And of course I am a card carying member.
I support the EFF too.
Good stuff

That was certainly worthly of post here at slashdot. News for the military history nerd. I think that would make an excellent story for the history channel. The poster should contact them about it. it was very interesting.
Those are nice jokes man, but this is serious business. Its a slap in the face. One day the *majority* group in America will realize whos the real threat to our way of life...
This is as bad as the data gathering department hiring the iran-contra guy a few months ago. Are their heads really that far up their asses, or are they really just trying to piss us off!?
Well I am using VNC now and I love it. Yes its slow over the internet but at home its responsive. Besides, it was free! and its running over ssh with little effort.
I have used citrix at work and if its the same thing this was the most horribly slow thing I have ever used. The whole workplace blasted this as totally unprofessional. Maybe it was a bad implementation.
Thats what I thought. Im a linux noob so I though I could just use X on any box. 1 year later finaly I realize that I can use VNC to achieve just that! It too slow and inefficient to use widespread though. Application level would be better.
It is silly. Obviously a way to hype their app server because this is NOT what J2EE is about. J2EE is not about serving applications its about serving data. I know its called an app server, but the "apps" its *serving* are all about data. Word processing is not going to fit in here at all, and I don't even believe the J2EE docs recommend you do what they are talking about.
Donohue is better than whatever else they can come up with. So Thats why I think he was canned for his message. Not solely. But you can be sure they have fewer viewers now, and that does not make business sense. It makes some other kind of sense.
Anyone that goes to interview at the White House has the same situation. Critisize and you will NOT be invited back. Be a hard nosed tough guy and you can forget it. The truth WILL make you free (from a job) after all.
Look at Donahue.
Honestly. I am an inner city Black Detroiter, and I will watch any stupid tear-jerker if Ebert says its good. He has been honest and only once was I ever disappointed. More should be like him. In general though he only does positive reviews...
My mom always told me, "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."
I think I get it now. For security purposes the random is fine. But from say gaming purposes where one may generate a new rnd number every 100ms, it must be truly random or people will eventually see long term patterns.
Possibly. Though the New Revised Standard is probably the most 'updated' version in that it includes all the latest codecies and info we found in last 500 years, the KJV is still my favorite to quote from:D
As a Christian, and speaking for God if I may, I request the immediate addition of a "Righteous" packet. How dare they propose a packet for the evil one, and nothing for the righteous!
I've been descriminated against for far too long. You Americans don't treat us Christians fairly...
I read the first one. Evil bit. I was thinking of legitimate usages and stuff. Then I saw the dupe and was thinking...idiots. Then I saw the 3rd one and I was thinking...idiot.:-D
I hope this slashdotting of slashdot is not a joke! Don't mess with my information drip!
Engineers create specifications based on knowledge.
Designers create things based on specification.
If you do both, you are considered a design-engineer.
There are software designers, as well as software engineers. You can not just lump all the programmers into a single category.
I have a masters in Computer engineering. This has absolutely nothing to do with what people consider computer programming. The article used bad terminology. I also have a BSEE. But I have been programming since I was ~10 (20 years).
"All of the major developers were saying that they could do nothing to fight cheating because they couldn't control what went on in people's computers," he said.
Interesting. I wonder how the methods of fighting online cheating relate to DRM. Anyone ever heard of such an analysis?

im not familiar with citrix on linux.
Indeed, perhaps ZiffDavis was the *anonymous* poster (do we have IP?). Slashdot needs to be more careful in this case.

Yes, I was thinking the same thing. The second they said it was J2EE, it was server side because j2EE IS server side...
Too bad somebody modded you negatively, you are certainly correct to question that redundant statement.

Rural areas are perfect for WiFi...
the kernel is getting kind of bougoise these days. With one name and all. They don't even bother to say what 2.5.65 refers too!
I guess Linux is going mainstream. Maybe I'll stop calling it RedHat or Mandrake, and just call it "2.5..."
A man once asked ~1985 of Mr. Big Cream, and I quote
"If your d!ck gets bigger, wouldn't your hands get bigger too!?"

I don't feel you. Does weak mean predictable? I just never understood the quest for *more* randon numbers. Practically, random is random!
How can one possibly predict the number a weak random number generator will create!?
I agree. They seem to be reserving the right to spam you.
They say they 'probably' won't let anyone email you, and you will 'probably' get an opportunity to _opt-out_.
Look closely...do you see stupid written across my face!?

Indeed. The prices make no sense. LCD TVs very expensive because their so big, Automobile LCD TVs very expensive because their so small. Stoopid.
It just means I won't buy one. No biggie. Well, I won't buy two...
S3 only sped it up? And how...
s3 made Diamond stop selling their NVIDIA based cards. s3 made diamond quit their #1 seller. At the time Diamond was NVIDIAs #1 customer.
Anyway you slice it, s3 did wrong by diamond. Perhaps they were doomed anyway, but indeed s3 but grease on the skids.
