I think you're referring to Niobe (Lock's girlfriend), but I'm not 100% positive (seen Reloaded only once). This must be the most popular urban legend about Matrix 2. Niobe's ship didn't get blown up. It was Morpheus' ship, the "Nebuchadnezzar". I agree with you on the rest of your post, though. Trinity had way too few time.
I don't question your BSD knowledge - which is an OS I know nearly nothing about (I'm a Linux guy) - or your review. It's just Schildt that scared me:-)
Visit ACCU's book corner for some opinions about Schildt and his well-liked books. Well, a lot of people like the Bible or Star Wars... wether it helps them a lot in practice is another question.
Yup, that was my first though, too. If the book is as wrong about BSD as Schildt is about C++, I'd strongly suggest another book. At the very least, I'd find another review of the same book - believing Schildt's pupils aren't good guides IMHO...
Re:Could someone tell me how Unisys got .GIF?

I think Unisys had a patent on the LZW compression algorithm which is used to make GIFs. IMHO the patent has expired, so GIF is "free" again. I'd still prefer PNG for the quality.
Actually, there is something to worry about. Some CD-ROM drives don't recognize these pseudo-CDs as compact discs. It's a problem with the drive's firmware - something you can't easily replace like your CD-ripping software.
February 28, if you want to know it exactly.
Of course I take back all my statements. Throwing Scud's at people is certainly not violence, if there are no blood pools. I'm deeply sorry.
I AM FREE AND I CAN CHOOSE TO LIVE MY LIFE HOW I WISH WITH NO CENCORSHIP.
Yup. At least as long as you aren't shot by some whacko with a sniper rifle (!) while buying gasoline. Real great to be an American.
I pity you, really.
Get a clue first. The game was banned WEEKS ago. And it wasn't banned for being pro-american or something, but for promoting violence. The same applies to id's ego shooters and several other games...
Yeah. Except that the "professional translating company" has no clue at all about the context in which the strings will be used... and that guarantees some really funny results. At least that's my experience.
UTF-8 _can_ encode all Unicode characters. That's why it uses 5 bytes for some of them... plus, it's backwards compatible with thousands of already-written C functions which rely on 8-bit null-terminated strings. So what's wrong with UTF-8?

good ones persist. Ditto for text editors.
Sorry to disturb your little theory... why is Emacs still around?
Not with any... but Sawfish is fine :-D
Why isn't this MTBF graph available to the public? Would be a cool thing. Just one question: Does it go up or down?
Hmm you're probably right. I just don't remember a second ship blown up (besides the Neb)

Wow. You nearly made me laugh.
Lilo can? Cool, didn't know that. *runs off and kicks Grub from the disk*

Unfortunately, it doesn't use GTK+ under X11 either.

That is to say, mainframes suck the same way as Python?

OK, forget it. Didn't examine your code closely enough.
Well of course not. Motorola processors use network byte order natively...
Seems not so trivial. Try that on Motorola iron :)

Unfortunately, the fuel cell is no power source. Hydrogen can be used to transport and store energy; but producing it still requires a power source.
