how are they using a satellite connection without going through a PC running Windows? Every report I see at DSLReports.com indicate that there is no way to connect directly to a Mac (or linux). You need Windows to do the ICS because there are no Mac/linux drivers for the satellite modems available.
For now, many denizens of Extremadura find themselves having to use both operating systems, if for no other reason than to deal with an outside world that still relies heavily on Microsoft.
That sums up the biggest roadblock every person/company/country will have to go through just to be MS-free.
directly from the article:
"And because the APIs are closed, hackers have to go to great lengths to get their tweaks to work. Responding to the outcry over the removal of the Happy Mac icon from the Mac boot sequence, Fishback Research created a utility for putting it back in. But to do so, their programmers had to delve into Darwin, the open-source version of OS X, to figure out how to do it."
So if it's closed, how were they able to "delve into Darwin"?
This also proves that no matter how closed (or open) the system is, if there's a will, there's a way.
i just got a hard on reading about Young's "double slit experiment".
slit
adj 1: having a long narrow cut; "his poor slit throat" 2: having a narrow opening; "a slit skirt revealed shapely legs"; "a knife with a slitted blade" [syn: slitted] n 1: a long narrow opening 2: obscene terms for female genitals [syn: cunt, puss, pussy, nooky]
I can hire a lovely lady to suck my dick enough to make me see 2 more stars, while I register the software, while listening to itunes, and edit the photos and movie of her giving me a blowjob.

I probably should write a script or something before I start filming
will you be using perl or applescript?
oww!
but how many portable players actually support it?
Oh, BTW...not only is vlc open source, there's also a drag and drop method for OS X. You don't have to be an advanced user.
ooh...I figured out how to do links...I'm now dangerous!
ever heard of vlc?

vlc video player can play DivX, VCD, DVD, MPEG-1, 2, 4
making a 15 year old computer up to par with a 5 year old computer and not having it go beepbeeepbeep and losing your stuff.
you know you don't have to reboot everytime you use software update right?
imagine a beowulf cluster of those... oh wait, that would be a clusterfuck. :)
if it's running linux, then i guess they can't get software from freshmeat. :P
wow, BeOS..imagine a Beowulf cluster of Beboxes. :D
how about an Apple iBook, M-Audio's Sonica, and Keyspan's Digital Media Remote.

i know someone who installed it on an ibook and the same thing happened. i think a re-install was the only fix.
running as a server... imagine a Beowulf Cluster of those... :D

the difference is, Unlike MS IIS, nothing is shipped enabled by default. You have to turn it on manually.
Also, if you get a script that tells the computer to delete important files, you will have to authenticate or use su.

at least there's a way to quit out of it. i wonder how you do it in XP or any other MS OS for that matter.
