Well, I for one, wanted a woman who is a lady in the street and a whore in the bedroom and i got one! What's the problem with that? Don't you want the same? Doesn't every man, porn or no-porn?
I also wondered how this law was supposed to handle the fact that a considerable portion of porn based websites are outside the US and that a substantial amount of porn also can be found on USENET very easily.
I'm not sure, but it seems like some of you have very bad experiences with harddrives?
In my 20 years with PC's I have never had a single HD failure, not once!
This is definatly a drive I'd look at. it would allow me to run Oracle testcases and several database versions and Oracle Apps for testing purposes on my home PC. 400gb is not that much really:)
I've just been reading the 23 pages of proof and anecdotes.
I'm nut sure what is more sad, the fact that I was able to understand the paper or that I never pursued a carrier in math 20 years ago..
Anyhow, I will sleep much better now that the Riemann hypothesis has been proven:)
I just loved the section about all the Apple zealots who wanted him hanged by some small parts in the low midsection of your body!
What's wroing with you Apple people. G5 is nice, but even the new box is slow compared to my quad FX-51 box. I sure hope Apple is not going to run more of those stupid "Worlds fastest 64-bit"-crap they did last time (which btw has been halted many places due to false claims and false marketing)
Apple zealots, lighten up. You are not married to Apple, it's just a frikin computer!
Well, I have an AMD64 3200+ and it runs a complete 64-bit kernel and userland and yes it is Gentoo. But that is probably like saying "I love MS" here on/.
The speed is excellent. There are however a few things that don't work perfect in 64-bit yet.
I have an ATI 9200 card and there is no 64-bit ATi driver yet, not that it is a problem for me since I'm not a gamer and the driver supplied with xorg-x11 is moe than good enough for my use.
If they don't like the movie, I'll read them some Vogon poetry and that'll take care of even the strongest opponent!
The point is to get DA's incredible stories out to people who have never heard of him or his work and at the same time be as true as possible to the original work.
Fringe lunatics running around with dual papier mache heads are not the target of the movie.
My AMD64 3200+ is not a server but a desktop PC running Win XP, Win XP 64-bit beta and Gentoo 64-bit and whether you see an advantage or not is really, really, really unimportant to me and to a large number of other users.
Just because you fail to see the need for more than 640K of memory doesn't mean I do!
You have obviously no experience with an Oracle database?
First of all, Oracle software is not installed as 'root', but as 'oracle' and as a memeber of 'oinstall' and 'dba' groups.
Second, there are a lot of steps that needs to be taken during install, such as rleinking againts your libraries, configuration done by root, configuration of your network etc.
You will never see Oracle as an RPM (which btw is about the worst format you can distribute software on, no matter what)
i will repeat again: Oracle is not a click and run isntallation, but requires knowledge other than just typing install or rpm -Uvh. until you understand that, you will continue to tout rpm based installs, but that only shows an Oracle savvy person that you have no clue whatsoever!
However, I normally use about 30 minutes to install the software on my Linux box (Gentoo, not supported) and about the same time to create a database from scratch, not using the pre-seeded starter database that comes with the software.
I can understand that you spend 3 days on the install, but that is not Oracle's problem, but yours. Oracle RDBMS is one of the most complex pieces of software commercially available and you need to have a certain lkevel of Orackle knowledge in order to install and maintain it, like maybe a 5 day DBA class and then some more. If you think this is a click and run type of software, you are wrong and that is what is causing you to spend time on getting it up and running, when it in fact is very easy as long as you can read and follow and installation guide and not sjip any steps.
I wonder if they have any open positions at that institute?
I really, really would love to work for them since they must have the best buds floating around their offices! Whatever they smoke during their meetings, I want to smoke too!
Well, I experienced a serious SLOWDOWN with SuSE 9.2 Pro on my AMD64 compared to Gentoo and Windows, but it has nothing to do with compiling or CFLAGS, just the fact that SuSE slowed down my 3200+ to run at 800Mhz compared to 2Ghz in Windows and Gentoo. The default kernel installed did not have DRI enabled nor did it have DMA enabled for my chipset (which I found very strange).
SuSE is nice and polished, but for me it was a no-brainer since I still haven't figured out why it only runs my CPU at 800Mhz.
This is all fine and dandy, but it really is not a point. You and I and a lot of other users can find this, even though I tried to play "Joe Luser" when I needed to change the behaviour since it gave me the chills and bad dreams dating back to Win 3.1 and earlier, but I could not find any place in the help system or docs where it said "If you want to switch off spatial, click....." This basically makes GNOME unusable for anyone who is not a computer power user or whatever
And this is not even the only thing. Try to change the background of the desktop to an image stored in a hidden folder, i.e ".folder" Try to find some help on how to do it. It's non-existant. I could go on and on with such examples that IMHO makes Gnome an incredibly bad DE.
Is the point of Gnome to be a "leet" desktop or to appeal to a broadest possible range of users? 2.6 is good release for the former, but horrible for the latter.
Oracle is only supported on RedHat AS 2.1 or RedHat ES 3.0 and UnitedLinux 1.0.
If you have it installed on anything else, the first message from Oracle Support will be, in case you have a problem: "Please install on a supported platform and reproduce the problem and file a new TAR. Case hard closed, status HCL"
Cassette tape? Hah! Noob!
I used paper tape and punch cards, I even knew how to read the paper tape we used on a teletype terminal connected via an acoustic coupler to the computer.
Cassette tape... That's so 80's!

All my movie needs are satisfied by alt.binaries..... groups :)
No DRM, no speed restrictions, all the newest movies rather than old B-movies.
I'm lovin' it!

You are way off!

Your sentence does not make sense. think about it:
"Fat chicks" don't "chase". They don't move because they are busy eating
I think you need to re-read the text. He meant The first 64-bit distro for PPC, that is not a toy environment

3-dya install? Your problem, not Oracles!
SpyWare?
Is that a feature of MS Windows? I can't say I have seen anything like it on my PC...

Ofcourse I meant 9.1 Pro, damn it!
A typo and you get all flustered! LOL
I hope Apple get this patent since it means I, as a non-Apple user, will never have to use this totally useless feature again
Apple is just as evil as MS, but for some reasons, your average geek drinks all Apple pours out without any questioning.
And I have karma to burn, so let my burning at the stakes begin for my heresay!

And with $53 BILLION in the bank, I sure see the need for a HUGE price hike! Billy-boy is almost broke, for crying out loud! Geeez!
