Replacing C++ for C# in freshmen courses should be worth the entire reputation of the school, far more than $5,000,000. My reputation is worth more than that!
You can have mine. Need banking information for those 5mill?
if these things have cameras transmitting underwater pictures, the windows teams might run into problems:
windows team captain: okay, guys. let's submerge it
operator: sir, i got a bluescreen.
captain: ok. bring it up, recompile, reboot and try it again.
goto 1;
I want them to make it look like old jeans.
That way, managers and politicians will never have a chance to wear it and nerds will finally rule the world.
yada, yada yada,
havent heard this much bullshit in a while.
I dont want my emails to be read out aloud to me, i want to read them because otherwise i would have just picked up the phone.
people want to use computers for emails. people dont want to read their email on their tv or their toaster.
reading email on the fridge sux, too.
people want to double click on an icon, they dont want to say "start my browser". voice input works, but nobody actually likes it.

Actually, "Milky Way" is an international commercial, at least i have seen it here in germany.
I like its quiet, almost sad atmosphere.
There is another VW commercial in which some guys play golf downtown NY. It also has pretty good music.
He could easily open the chute at any height without killing himself. Why? Because the chute is subject to the same air pressure (=resistance) his body is.
Only problems would be (a) wind which might make it impossible for him to descend and (b) oxygen because it would take quite a long time to descend.
I think gameplay is a lot more important than good looks anyway.
Consider Counterstrike: 3? years old graphics but still the most played game.
And HL itself, which has equally good graphics isn't nearly as successful.
There was a lengthy debate (took about a year) about the usage of Linux vs. Windows in the german parliament.
They ended up using Linux for Servers and Win2k for Desktops, which was interpreted as a loss for microsoft by the media.
Microsoft actually offered to let a government agency review the windows source code. They paid $$$ - lobbyists but didn't succeed.
Actually, this has been seen as a sign for other government agencies and open source is 'in' right now. Let's see how long it lasts...
> as the european Internet will suffer a huge bandwidth shortage if the network goes down.
Because of the increase in channels per line, the network usage is at an all-time low of about 5% right now, that's why they're out of money in the first place.
Bandwidth is not a problem. Routing might be, but that should only last for a few days.
I don't understand the american "couponomany" anyway. Coupons suck! You have to mail them and then you have to wait for a year till you get anything. Why not lower the price of the product in the first place? It would make a market a lot more transparent.

Maybe you should re-read the part where he talkes about little brown mushrooms...
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups...

we propose to the city to give them a linux installation. Free of charge, of course.
How does this compare to spamassasin. Anybody know any figures?

I mean, clinton knows everything about a "deep impact" in little rock. Since this thing is just 2km wide, i would consider it a little rock.

How come every comment that contains "I'm expecting to be modded down" ends up at +5, insightful?

Hmm, ever heard of Airbus?
the online documentation at php.net and mysql.com is excellent, so beginner books are unneccessary.

That paper can be used against open source - no matter how stupid it might be. It gets media coverage and most journalists believe what they read.
It's just sad, that something like this is needed in the first place
