This is actually one thing that is really holding PPC Linux back and has plagued the platform for as long as I can remember... It is rediculous that Macromedia has not released a PPC Flash binary...
The imac line is one of the best selling computers apple offers... They did anything, but bomb. In fact it was the imac that brought Apple back to life in 1998.

--wow a flase advertising front... how USEFUL!
Google has become so flooded with internet crap that it's quickly losing its status as a useful tool. Google needs some form of moderation to move out the superfulous blog entries and advertising fronts so it can someday become as useful as it always was.
All these conversations about different package formats, dependency hell, et al. flies right over the heads of many Debian users. Many of us are usually surprised at the amount of problems other distros have when it comes down to packaging. Now before you mark me as a troll ponder this: It isn't the package format that needs revision its the maintaining of an entire repository of packages. This is why Debian users are surprised by all this, or possibly why some migrated to the distro to begin with.
People need to stop worrying about what format there software comes from, but rather begin creating a universal set of dependencies and one congruent software repository. Until then only debian users will know the true joy in running apt-get update && apt-get upgrade.
I saw you then on a rebroadcast of that interview on some obscure Dish Network channel... Small world, eh? I was personally in stitches when you asked the inevitable.
I hadn't realized how incredibly limiting some distros were until I decided to install Fedora on a friend's box. Comfortable with Debian, and knowing about Fedora's apt wannabe yum, I figured installing packages would be sinch. wrong.
Let me clearify installing a package in Fedora via yum is identical to apt-get, but the range of packages is very different. Quickly I realized everyone using the large commercial Linux's are stuck with a very small repository of software.
I really took for granted how great apt-get(ing) all my software really is. Before a few days ago I never would have imagined that to install something has common as Mozilla-Firebird I'd have to go and find some website that offered an rpm, which made me incredibly nervous (one thing about rpm's I did remember was mixing them can cause a lot of dependency issues).
Say what you must about Debian, but you can't ignore that it has one of the slickist methods of installing software and updating the system, furthermore, as all the software comes from a trusted repository I know it's most likely going to work perfectly with all my other packages.
i've seen an actually device that fits into a bay and does just what you want plus radio and *possibly mp3. it also had a nifty set of controls and a multiline lcd.
large hard drives- you simply can't beat the accesibility they can offer and you can fit an increasingly large amount of data on one box the size of a novel.
Wouldn't this be seen as a horrible exploit for this router? Think about it anyone, who knows the router's IP (shesh thats difficult), can install a distro, with telnet access onto the router, thus being able to run things like sniff all day long....
who feels that this move seems a bit lackluster? Now I'm all for cd prices to drop, but who is excited by this? When I can get big CDs for the same price as some of the independent artists I listen to (avg cd price $8 - $10)... then i might go some more cds...
besides who wants to pay $12 when they could have the warm fuzzy LP:D
i'm wondering if all the people claiming HD based players are "clunky" have actually seen an iPOD... These things are small, light, supersleek, and i've never been able to skip it.
From Apple's page:
4.1 by 2.4 by 0.62 inches
5.6 ounces
lets keep in mind that this "spyware" isn't stealing information which is incredibly private, furthermore due process still stands. This would be akin to having a sign outside your door that says "Hi I just robbed 3 banks"- would the officer driving by the house bust down the door and arrest you, most likely not, but would he further ivestigate the matter... most likely.
Seriously folks I think lately we've forgotten that stealing is stealing, and if you're stealing a piece of software you should be punnished for stealing a piece of software. It seems as if we look beyond the crime far too often lately and we forget the obvious... STEALING IS A CRIME... end of story.
I'm not sure how impressive this really is... maybe i'm missing something, but the algorithm simply learns from it's "mistakes" (ie. if i move this segment and this segment i move this way) and records these mistakes... this is not unlike the basic learning algorithms in some AI's (ie. in the beginning the program starts with a limited amount of knowledge.. a set strategey and learns everytime it makes a move which puts it in a negative situation).. .
The high in which I attend herds between 4500 - 5000 students every year, thus they very concept of personal care let alone name recognition borders on impossible. Teachers and administration alike seemed incredibly excited when the school rolled out a very similar system in my district, but as a student I felt a little bothered. All of a sudden teachers were flooded with a cornacopia of information about each one of their numbers-::ahem:: students, but what was meant to be a tool for modeling personal attention and care has become more of a tool to wield more and more of a strained power dynamic between teacher and student. A lacking grade in one class must be inexcusable if other grades are on par, but more insidious than grade comparison was the ability to track absences and recorded reasons for those absences. Teachers now accustomed to their new diety knew of almost any childs coming and goings, the location of a student's residence, personal records spanning back to elementary school, and most disturbing it is all tied to a student's ss#.
It seems as if i'm harking on rather minor civil liberties, but this system is not used for what it is intended, and strains what little trust students still put in their teachers.
It creates a system where one party has absolute power and the other is absolutely powerless.

Yes...

or you can apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade

anyone have this working with transgaming's wineX?
and thats exactly it.

possibly karamba or something new in KDE?
This fundemntal difference makes this argument fundementally different, and far less deletrious than many of you who havn't rtfa have supposed.
We should be fighting this not supporting it.
