thats kind of funny if you consider that Gates and Co got the "idea" of Windows from lookin at the Apple computer that Steve jobs designed durin an acid trip (or some other drug induced haze):)
I see plenty of Com ed commercials on TV. electric, gas, water, phone are all public utilities. your right they dont need to advertise at all since they are legal monopolies.
However, i see Electric, Gas, and Telephone(not long distance) ads on TV all the time.
Although, I can say i've never seen a water company advertise anywhere.
Do you have a job? does the place you work for do something? How do people find out about your product/service that your work provides? oh ya, advertising.
So, No advertising, No product placement, no product research & development, no demand, no more work.
Do you tell people about the CD's you listen too, or about NPR?, then you are advertising their services just the same as anyone else does.
i know this is waaay late but there are a LOT of comments to go through:)
The Pantone matching system IS the world wide prepress and printing press standard in color. Used with SWOP standards, which state lighting specific conditions, you will be assured that your colors turn out EXACTLY how you wanted them.
CMYK isnt about the computer, it is about the printed world.
If you think you know a better way of doing color, call pantone and tell them, maybe they will hire you.
Gentoo is built from source code. This means it can take an entire weekend.... This also means your Mozilla install isn't a trivial event.;)
Problems come up on their own. Since programs are compiled and linked against each other and many libraries, when versions change, problems can arise in certain setups, especially new ones.
...You will be using the command line for most administration....
For the first one, Gentoo also offers pre-build Mozilla binaries for you to use. dont know what compile flags it uses but you can just emerge the binary mozilla, then emerge -B mozilla and when thats done you'll have your own mozilla package in/usr/portage/packages/All
For library changes in programs, use revdep-update (im 85% sure that is the name). it does back tracking in package dependencies to see what needs to be updated.
kportage is pretty nice:) there is also a gnome version i hear.
You will have to create your own motor (magnet + former), your own cone and your own suspension (spider and suround)
get a few donut shaped magnets amd glue them together, a paper tube wrap some thin magnet wire around it secure it with epoxy. get a hunk of round steel and a thin plate. attach the steel to the center of the plate, put the magenets around the pole peice and attach to the plate. add another steel plate to the top with a hole big enough that the former fits in.
thats your motor
make a spider from something. get a paper cone and attach it to the spider to the former to the surround to the frame. and your done !
Or, you can get a cheap $10 speaker from partsexpress.com and use that as an example with good drawings
This is posted on slashdot as if its something new and exciting. but people have been doing this in Diablo II since it was released. As another commented pointed out, it was done with EverQuest also. so big f-in deal if someone is making money playing Ultima Online.
the guy isnt running his setup with 6000 watts, only 6 watts per speaker. With that power he will hit ~115db easy. try doing that with your JL 13-W7's and their high 80's sensitivity.
Although you have to wonder one things.
how did he manage to seal the floor to the top of the horn ?!
FFX-2 had many more mini-games, sidequests and other adventures for you to go on than FFX. I beat FFX pretty easily without getting killed until much later on in the game, almost near the very end.
FFX-2, if you're not very good with your dress spheres or are just plain to slow, you'll get stomped very quickly.
I think i was killed more times in FFX-2 than any other FF series, including the original:)
oh, and want to talk about a hard game! the first FF !!
What is really dragging Kodak down is their brand name--some companies have a brand name that stands for innovation, and they can put out any kind of garbage and people will think it's the latest and greatest thing. Kodak, on the other hand, can put out a really nifty digital camera and the stale odor of photographic fixing solution clings to it in the mind of buyers (yes, including my own).
I work in the Printing industry, when i think of Kodak i think of Absolute Quality. Kodak has many products that many consumers might never see. digital processing printers (called trensetters) that print images onto alumninum plates for Offset printing. Proofing printers that can match almost all of the idiosyncracies of printing. They produce chemicals and the plates themselves for the Offset Industry. But most importantly is the proofing printers. The quality of the photos it can produce is amazing. Think of the highest quality, best looking picture you've ever seen in ANY magazine. there is a 99% chances the color in that magazine is a close match to a Kodak Approval proof.
I have seen and compared Kodak proofs to Cannon proofs, Epson proofs, and other various brands. I've even had proofs where someone printed them with a high quality HP photo printer. none of them can compare to a real Kodak Approval.
I spent about 20 minutes typing something out but fucking slashdot gave me a 500 error and i lost the text i was typing.
anyways, long post short, you ask how far can someone fly?
My brother was in an accident a few years back and went through the windshield at about 40mph, landed ~20 feet from the impact site and then rolled a bit farther from where he landed. My bro' weighs roughly 220lbs and is 6'4"
He was also traveling west on an east-west road, but was found north-west of the accident. when his vehicle struck the other, they both rotated to the left and he was thrown forward in relation to the vehicles position, which was facing north-west when he left the vehicle.
Also, in phsyics, the definition of Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity, NOT only the increase of velocity but decrease of also. so yes when you strike something with your car, any object in the car, not attatched, will begin to accelerate. This is what seatbelts are designed to counter.
MS developed Xenix and sold it to SCO, which is true, and you also agreed.
MS and IBM developed OS/2, it wouldnt be unreasonable that the guys that created OS/2 would of possibly used some of their experiances with Xenix to help develop OS/2. I never said that OS/2 was developed DURING the period which Microsoft controlled Xenix.
SCO started out as a Xenix sales and support operation.
SCO aquired the Xenix from MS and later Renamed it to SCO Unix System V , which I also said above and your link to the time line agreed with also.
Before Microsoft and IBM developed OS/2, Microsoft developed a version of Unix (Xenix) that it later sold to the Santa Cruz Operation (i.e SCO).
SCO existed before that as a "first string" source of Microsoft Xenix sales and support. Later on MS Sold them the whole source code rights and SCO renamed it to System IV.
you know, now that i think about it.. i did have an old non-mxx pentium 200 that i couldnt install Windows XP on, but i had Windows 2000 running on it fine. Windows XP requires MMX
I run XP on a Via C3 800mhz mini-itx system with a pair of 64 meg PC133 chips. it runs great. Obviously it wont play Q3 at 50fps or better, but everything else i need it to do, it works great.
I havent gotten it to hit the disk for swap either. I have the default XP themes turned off (i.e. running in classic mode), and ram usage is fairly light, around 80 megs or so.
It seems that it automaticly figured that hey, i dont got a great system so lets lighten the RAM usage a bit.

Something like that ya

and of course, using the Free Net-zero access with ad viewing-software.
I just wanted to say that you rock, My output is also a printing press. working prepress/platemaking is fun.

I beleive Alpine and I know MB Quart does this, two of the highest quality car audio speaker manufacturers.

Hey, they made a movie about that! i wonder if a movie about the Comanche is next?
btw. that movie is pretty funny

It wasnt just "cluttered", it was almost torn in half :) back then the IL license was a peice of laminated paper with a seperate photo over it.
With a small knife you could easily lift and replace my photo. I had to go get a new license and take it to court to get the fine dropped.
A State issued form of ID is property of the issueing state. It is NOT YOUR PROPERTY and is not protected under the 4th Admendment.
In IL, i have been fined for having a mangled IL drivers license listed as damaging state property.

So, how is that wrong

you know, now that i think about it.. i did have an old non-mxx pentium 200 that i couldnt install Windows XP on, but i had Windows 2000 running on it fine. Windows XP requires MMX

It seems that it automaticly figured that hey, i dont got a great system so lets lighten the RAM usage a bit.
Windows 2000 and Windows XP both require a processor that can at least support MMX instructions.
The old pentium 100,120,133 and 166 DO NOT support MMX nor will they support Windows 2000/XP
I have tried to install Windows 2000 on a friends non-mmx P133 , but it works fine on my old P 233 (with MMX)
