uhh. that's odd. I've used multiple recent versions of realplayer, no problems like that ever. In fact...::opens up winamp3::::plays mp3:: nope. no realplayer popup.
actually, they're the same thing. Both refer to the elements of the GUI except content. For instance, mozilla's chrome is the xul and js that specifies what the stuff in the window is and what it does.
this was a mirror that was taken down within an hour of the compromise. only 20 people were affected. They would have published details to let those people fix their boxes if the tree WAS affected.
post hoc ergo propter hoc?
Windows became the dominant OS at the same time as computers were entering the mainstream at a massive rate. Thus prices were dropping when windows was gaining dominance. DUH
As far as I can tell (especially looking at the diagram), this patent is about upgrading. It's for a program that uploads software and prefs, and then redownloads them to a single new machine.
The reason is this (something which some distro makers choose to ignore): Major versions are significantly different from eachother (compare windows 3 and 4 (4 = win95) and 4 and 5 (5 = 2000, XP). there are SIGNIFICANT differences. There are a few significant differences between windows 2000 and XP, hence the minor number difference.
In Linux, since the development is open, you have different patch levels in existence. The differences here are (for the most part) either backported from newer versions or bug fixes. The numbering is a simple result of the changes in code, not a conscious effort on the part of developers (or at least should not).
This is the problem with stuff like red hat, RH9 is not really all that different from RH8.1, simply a few newer pieces of software; works pretty much the same.
okay then, let's put cameras in every car. because hey! I trust my driving. I don't trust yours. RFID on a person is an ENORMOUS invasion of privacy. I would NOT feel comfortable if someone could go into a database and see EXACTLY where I was, who I talked to (yes that could be tracked), and for how long. As for bullies, we've all lived through it, it takes learning to take a stand (yes this is a skill you need in life) and when to ask for help (ditto). Life is not a walk in the park.
they haven't (yet). they've repeatedly tried to get people to buy licenses (which would be necessary if SCO had a copyright on Linux). Thus they are in effect threatening to sue over use copyrights
Okay. 97.8% of people don't respond. SO WHAT. They send a million e-mails selling snake oil for the low price of $10. There's 10 * 22000 = $220,000. nice payday.
Qwest already did this. For a while in Omaha, NE, if you dialed a busy number, Qwest offered to get you to use their auto-redialer instead of giving an ordinary busy signal

There's no difference between PAL and SECAM discs FYI.
Right. your parent poster was talking about the output produced by the DVD players.

it is NOT goatse. use mozilla or another tabbed browser and open in a new tab behind. it is a legit link
except hitpoints are integers. roundoff error for hitpoints is BAD

they are currently somewhere between the RIAA and convicted baby-killers as far as reputation goes.

I'm patenting the act of not reading the article before posting a headline or comment. I figure 99.9% of Slashdotters will owe me millions.

well if you lower the temp below 0 deg Celsius then whatever is holding those bits has a good chance of failing, so yes.
I once tried to plug in an IDE drive live. system shut down before I had a chance to finish

No. It's a town that has completely gone insane because people are constantly using it in inappropriate metaphors on /.
