The Linux Netscape 4.7 flash plugin works just fine with Mozilla 0.9 under Linux. I suspect the same would be true of the Windows plugin. Why don't you try it?
It's biological. Amazing how millions of 14 and 15 year olds have had children during various periods in history (e.g., middle ages), despite never having seen porn.
Not to mention that the female sex drive compared to a male's is like throwing a bullet compared to firing it from a gun.
The probles don't *need* to be sophisticated. It's sufficient to use the doppler effect of the radio signals from the spacecraft to determine the speed of the craft, and the position can be determined by simple position in the sky. Distance can be determinedby delay between send and receive, which can be measured.
Bullshit. If you can't understand, you don't even have middle-school reading comprehension skills. He said that it wasn't compatable, but that it would be with the removal of the choice of law clause. What is difficult to understand about that?
Napster's popularity is what it makes it worthwhile in the first place. Remember, the usefulness of a network is the number of its users square, and Napster is not an exception to this. These AOL users are the ones who share all their songs, who leave Napster running in the background on Windows, etc. More savvy users disallow uploads and stop Napster as soon as they are done with it. A network comprised solely of people like this wouldn't be as useful.
Allegro was originally intended as a graphics library for the DOS port of gcc, DJGPP. It's slow, obselete, and leaks huge amounts of member under Linux. I was never designed with portability in mind, either.

TCP/IP Over HTTP
·
· Score: 3
What's more is, and I'm sure somebody could argue this; but HTTP uses UDP connections. The entire TCP/IP Protocol suite requires TCP connections which are more complicated than simple UDP - using HTTP a true TCP connection is impossible.
You are so wrong. HTTP uses TCP. Therefore, TCP over HTTP would be fine, technically (if senseless)
As for your assertion that TCP could not be implemented on top of UDP anyway, think about this --- TCP is implemented on top of IP. IP is an _unreliable_ protocol as well. It's perfectly possible to implement a reliabl protocol on top of UDP or any other unrealiable protocol using the types of mechanisms TCP does.
What makes you so sure that they received the complete source? Is the source even buildable? What makes you sure the Windows binaries don't include backdoors in source files Microsoft doesn't distribute?
If anyone is interested, I've made a few changes to Mozilla that allow
1) The meta key to mean the same thing as the alt key (i.e., meta generates alt), like NS4, or just fix it (meta handling for GTK was broken for GTK). I put it on the bug, but I doubt it will be accepted soon.
2) I restored the native File Picker, i.e., make Mozilla use a nice GTK file selection dialog compared to the XP abdomination.
Slashdot lameness filter won't let me post patches, so email me if you're interested.
Let's see --- how, exactly, does the conclusion "GTK is slower than QT" come from a comparing the speed of a huge, bloated GTK app to light, fast QT apps?
In my experience, both GTK+ *and* QT have been damn fast on my system. I can't tell the difference in speed (but I like GTK for other reasons).
Can you give me an example of a specific widget or idiom that's slower in GTK than QT? Didn't think so.
Feh. Virmir used a camera obscura, a device that's like a camera with lenses but no film, and projects the light onto a light table. Virmir traced, and then filled in with paint. The result is quite increadlbe --- I believe one person called them "exquisuite, hand-painted photographs."

lostbrain.com really is brain-damaged. It doesn't have a *single* *word* of text on the whole site --- all the content is in the form of images, specifically, gifs. Any site that does this is pathetic and not worth going to. Incompetent assholes.
Yes, they *could* do these things, *but* do they *want* to? Napster has just been beaten --- do you think they will willingly embrace their occupiers and do exactly as they command? NO! They will do as little as possible, just to give the appearance of compliance.

I have a version of thinice that works with 0.9, if you're interested. Email me.
LAYER does not work. Don't even bother. Why don't you try using the DOM properly?

That it still has the same basic design after 30 years is a testament to how *right* it is, not how outmoded and outdated it is.
What is the rationale behind not installing these utlities to begin with? They're tiny and harmless.

Ahem? Xemacs and Xemacs? They forked.
How does *that* work? A screenshot is a screenshot, and should capture, pixel-for-pixel, what's on the screen.

There are no editors that use six spaces as the default. If the user changes that, then he should be concious of what he is breaking.

The GTK port of XEmacs was funded through SourceXChange, I believe.
Can anyone else think of something worthwhile that was funded through it?

Accounting for inflation, Nasa's real budget is lower.
