Get DYNDNS or something similar for a trusted friend or family member, and keep a NAS in their house. Make sure you can reach it via ssh. Then run rsync over ssh at your house when you're pretty sure they're not using their internet connection, so only new files are copied over.
The command I use is: rsync -rptuv --delete --progress/home/me/data/ me@myparents.dyndns-home.com:/Users/me/data/
This only works, of course, if you don't live with your parents.
I am VERY happy to have AirPlay mirroring to my AppleTV. I travel and give presentations to small groups and in meetings, knowing that I just lost my tether and will be able to sit anywhere around the table instead of right next to wherever the monitor cable happened to be is kind of nice.
I hope that they fixed airplay for you (and me). I have issues using airplay (and even the keynote remote for the iphone) on slightly complex network topology. (ie: everything's connected via wireless, but one's via a repeater and one via the base station even though they're in the same room.)
Who's to say they won't give away a free dock adapter for the first couple years? They gave away plastic converters for the first few generation ipods, after all.
It may be that the country doesn't want health care reform, but it's something the country as a whole needs. (I am a physician and I'm okay with taking a pay cut..... so long as my malpractice insurance goes down by a similar percentage.)
That being said, I wish Obama tackled both these issue in the first two years. Perhaps he didn't expect the second two years of his presidency to be so hard?
As for why I haven't bought one yet, I'm just waiting until XBMC is available for it.
A tablet that allows me to add a folder via sshfs and run XBMC... Hell's bells, I just bought several nettop computers to do this around my house and for my dad, my brother, and a friend of mine.
Consoles are not a place to update games on a regular basis. That's what computers are for.
XBLive games can have updates, but they *should* be painfully expensive to prevent the constant downloading of patches that developers would otherwise make. Get it right and then publish, as opposed to publish fast and update frequently.
It's just a term. As far as sexist terms, it's not in the top 5.
Most people here (which is a representative group similar to the people that read Linux source code) are not particularly insulted by this term getting into the source. Therefore, if an individual has a problem with the term, it's their problem.
Frankly, I think more people here would have been upset if "Microsoft rules, Linus is an ass" made it into the Linux source as a comment.
With Linux there are so many distros and so many permutations of libraries I can see it being nearly impossible to correctly identify them all as WINE.
Presumably, if wine compiles on the system it will fine the proper linux libraries to link to. If those are not available, wine won't compile properly.
I don't know. No one ever compiles wine anyway. Dependencies are all resolved via repository magic nowadays.
Though I was quite disappointed that there were no aliens at all on the episode I watched.
I'm not even sure I would consider it SciFi. Hell, if they mentioned that they were on planet Earth you could probably mix it in with all the other cruddy reality TV shows.
That being said, the Google Nexus 7 is looking pretty damn good at $200.
I hope that XBMC on the Nexus 7 will give Apple some impetus to allow the XBMC app into the appstore.
Of course, knowing Apple, they'll try to litigate themselves out of this. And before you say I'm an Apple basher, my family and I own 4 iPhones and a MacBook. I just don't like this patent litigation route that they've gone recently.
Now I get the impression (also by the screenshot) that the article is mainly talking about Wikipedia's homepage. There might be some room for improvement there, but seriously, who goes to Wikipedia to look at the homepage? It's all about the articles. And those pages simply look fine.
Exactly. You get the impression that the author is the sort that only buys Playgirl to look at the pictures, rather than for the articles.
I was watching the episode of Big Bang Theory with Stephen Hawking in it. Wife was curious as to his history (she has a vague idea of who he is). So I told her about the documentary I saw about his life, "A Brief History Of Time". She was interested and I wanted to see it again (I saw it in the theater when it came out).
Went to amazon.com to buy it. Not available. Apparently hard to find. Except on piratebay.
The 2000s, off the top of my XBMC: The Shield, Fringe, 24, Better Off Ted, Futurama, Veronica Mars, Life On Mars (UK Version), Doctor Who, How I Met Your Mother, Firefly, Dexter, Sherlock, Battlestar Galactica, Penn & Teller's Bullshit!, Deadwood.
There are good shows. It's just harder to find them because there's a lot more channels you have to sift through.
Or, of course, you can create a standardised, automatic, fast battery exchange system, where batteries are exchanged at fuel stations within 10 minutes for a fully charged one.
It's not the hardest problem these guys have to deal with, and I saw schematics on how to set it up years ago mentioned on/..
Haven't been to the theater in years (I guess when Return of the King came out). I was under the impression that movie theaters had more than 7.1 discrete speakers.
Why haven't theaters progressed beyond the sound setups available to home aficionados decades ago? Or am I missing something?
Slashdot Mirror
As a side question, how are you adding the cover art to the id3 tags?
I'm using easytag, but development on that appears to have stalled.

Maybe he's personally backing up CERN?
Next time wear glasses.

I'm going to buy the 16GB version.

I wonder what's the fascination in running btrfs on /.
The benefits of btrfs are in large partitions and places wheredata changes are both critical and frequent. I don't see that in / on any sane system.
Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the show?
You've hit it on the head.

I ordered mine a while ago. Credit card was charged about 3 weeks ago. Still waiting on shipping information. :-(
Not that I'm upset. It's obviously a toy computer for me. But it's Summer, and I want to play with my toy!
(Planning on hooking up a couple external USB hard drives and using it as a low power NAS.)
Figures. I just spent $400 on an ASUS nettop.
That being said, the Google Nexus 7 is looking pretty damn good at $200.

Maybe someone should start a kickstarter campaign to buy a senator?

Agree 100%.
This is my homepage. Able to put my own links and have a google bar at the top just makes it even more handy.
I'll probably use it until the last day and then look for a similar service.
