I wholeheartedly agree! As long as we don't have DB based filesystems to easily find documents etc. (as proposed by Jef Raskin in "The Humane Interface") this is a sorely needed tool. I've got tons of business and other documents and having to organize them in all sorts of folders and by using intricate naming of files is a true PITA. Just let me search for "marketplan someproduct" and bring it up in OpenOffice.
I've tried both Beagle and Kat as linux alternatives, but they both have their share of crashes so far and are not ready for prime time. Google, surely you have enough developers on board to support Mac and Linux as well?
Do you really think these guys are not aware of public warez offerings on IRC?
I would imagine getting to the root of the problem, i.e. taking down the crackers themselves and their supply + distribution channels is a lot harder than taking down large sites that redistribute. I'm guessing that busts like these are more or less scare tactics to get to the "root" indirectly. Don't know if it works though (?).
I just visited the #linuxwarez channel, and if I were law enforcement, taking down something as small as that would seem like a waste of time.
1. Just stick to QWERTY 2. Get some sort of ergonomic QWERTY keyboard that favours your hand positioning more (i.e., your wrists are relaxed and you can move across the keyboard with ease) 3. Get a soft rubber ball or something, and force yourself into the habit of taking a 5 minute break every 1-2 hours squeezing the ball in your hands or throwing it back and forth with someone else at the office.
You don't necessarily need a different layout of the keys - the important thing is to avoid strained and static finger/wrist motion. Your body doesn't like doing the same things over and over again for an extended period of time, no matter which body parts are involved (note to the/. crowd: you don't have to quote this and come up with some daft sex pun:-))
Well, there's hopefully no need to port, but Azureus does have serious performance issues. Have you ever monitored it's CPU usage? It periodically spikes to 100%.
If you use it on a laptop that's instantly annoying as the fan kicks in. On my 3GHz dekstop system it became annoying when I popped in a DVD and got decoding glitches because of Azureus (increasing PowerDVD's priority solved most of it, but it's still annoying to adjust the priority every time).
For that reason I've switched over to BitTornado which isn't really quite as good, but at least it's responsive and doesn't eat your CPU time. Until they bother to profile and fix the performance issues in Azureus I'm not going back.
Is the pancreas like the liver, that if you take part out of a living human, transplant it in another person, both livers will grow back to their normal size.
No, the liver, as an internal organ, is unique in it's ability to regenerate lost tissue.

Then again, Red Hat has been stretching the definition of "free" in a lot of ways over the last couple years, heh.
Feel free to elaborate...

So does Fedora Core 4:
kernel-xen0-2.6.13-1.1532_FC4.i686.rpm
kernel-xenU-2.6.13-1.1532_FC4.i686.rpm
xen-2-20050823.i386.rpm
The whole point here is to push Xen into the mainline kernel, not just to provide it with the distribution as an alternative kernel build.
Oh give them a break - anyone can misspell "Sauce" once in a while...
Thanks a lot for that link John! Just placed my own order.
How many thousands of hotspots would it take?
12,115,678 hotspots exactly. And you can quote me on that!
What do you mean? A hard boiled or a raw egg?
Huh? I-- I don't know that! Auuuuuuuugh!
Yes, but it's not possible to establish a 11mbps connection using that kind of technology.

But not quite as much as Beck
Lol, nice one mr Anonymous Snitch

After getting an additional 700,000 hits from the /. in just a couple of hours crowd maybe that will make them reverse their decision.
Damn, it's just so hard to be funny at work on fridays. Sorry.
Your games will run about 15-20 fps faster, or a general 30% performance gain.
Conclusion: Spend your money on beer instead.
Apple go and change the architecture they're running on :D
...and OO.org are on the steps of releasing 2.0
:)
Hope they won't spend another 5 years porting that
Pardon me but this seems dead in it's infancy (unless Steve Balmer is not exempt from the "competition").
Passionate about Windows? There's an oxymoron if I ever saw one...

No, none whatsoever.
The PlayStation 3 will be nothing but a DVD player capable of playing back 150 movies at the same time.
Which is kind of sad really, I would have hoped for more.
Yes, of course it will, although you might get electrocuted while casually walking through your living room.
Looks like it should be possible to spend at least half of it putting Mr. Robinson on a diet.
Oh, and it helps to log in if you're trying to get into that karma whoring thing.
Wow, glad to see he found a really old fan full of dust and crap to blow into his harddrive.
Let us now how long it lasts will you?

Just over $3 million raised in 60 days is a better indicator of the popularity of the show than any amount of signatures on a petition if you ask me.
I mean, if you stick with Microsoft you'll only have to pay for a new OS every 7-10 years or so!
You can use apt with Fedora (although yum is the package manager that's being developed actively to fit in with Fedora).
Same thing:
apt-get install
yum install
Wait a few months for Fedora Core 4, I'm sure you'll like it
What, you haven't read the The Book Of Mozilla!?
Heresy I say!
