Well duh, that's easy. Try getting your mail out of Hotmail without using Windows+Outlook
Last I checked, Hotmail was accessible from many browsers, including Firefox and Safari, neither of which requires Windows nor Outlook. Has that suddenly changed? Or are you so out of date that you missed the entire *web*mail fad?
Can you please think before making an ass out of yourself. Being critical of a company for no fucking reason is just as bad as being a retarded fanboy.
I hope you're being sarcastic. The only thing preventing you from getting a PS3 should be a wallet two sizes too small.
I don't know what kind of alternate reality you live in, but most people don't have an extra $500-$600 to spend on a video game console, much less $800-1000 for a decent TV nor $50 games to play. Thus, making it still hard, in general, to get a PS3.
The killer feature for me was the front-side USB port, which lets me play movies right off of a flash drive. Throw in easy region-free hacks + HDMI/1080i support and I've got myself a winner for around $75
Sadly, today's Netscape is just a shadow of its former self: "What's Included in the Download? Installation may include Netscape 8.1 Browser, Netscape ISP, McAfee, Rhapsody, Real Arcade and WeatherBug."
Sad.
I checked the numbers, and just under half of the overall requests came from the United States. About ten percent came from the United Kingdom. Why could that be? Well, it could be because the survey is in English. Or, it could be because most of the people who want to switch to Linux live in those countries.
I've always had the following question, and this thread seems the perfect place to get a response: Does anyone know how large the difference in power consumption is for a typical, relatively modern, let's say 100 watt stereo when it is turned off (or according to the article, idling), vs when it is turned on under vid/aux mode, but with the volume completely down? (this is assuming no discs are spinning etc).
The game seems fun and all, but I found it impossible to play, specifically with the counter in place. That is, I think that when you take into account factors such as the speed of google maps, the area of the map which you could click on, the rate of zoom, etc, it is very, very close to the 10 minutes allotted. This is of course, ignoring the human controllable factors such as the time it takes to read the clues or make up your mind onto where to click next. I've tried twice, playing with nearly dead-on "top-level" clicking, reasonable zoom levels (to not get lost out in the middle of nowhere), and yet I still can't win. But I do have to wait a lot for Google's maps too load.
For those of you looking for a RISC-like experience under linux, be sure to look at the ROX Desktop. I've personally never used RISC, but I have fallen in love with ROX, using it, along with Xfce, on all of my machines. Together, the make a fast, modern desktop that knocks the socks off the other, traditional desktops
In another, a Vax chip from DEC, is a message in Russian for the would-be reverse engineers on the other side of the Iron Curtain trying to determine the chip's functions: "When you steal, steal from the best."

As an intern at IBM this summer, I found that some of the regulars themselves didn't know what RUP was. In particular, some claimed it was simply a process to follow, some linked it with a special program, others claimed complete ignorance, and others simply waved it off as labeling the pre-existing procedures.
I still wonder what RUP is all about...
I ran into this easy to follow tutorial on setting up encrypted filesystems under linux, including virtual drives through loopback, and also entire devices/partitions/mount points:

This has been "out there" for a few days now. The important thing to remember if you didn't even read the blurb is that it is %100 voluntary! You have to go and download this program intentionally in order for it to delete your files
Most configure scripts have an option of placing all of the files in a different directory, precisely because users don't have write access to/bin. So for example, "./configure --prefix=/home/someguy/" ensures that the binary is placed into/home/someguy/bin/ . Of course, a so called virus can infect that user's other binaries, but it would be isolated from the rest of the system.
These changes take into effect in make install, so there is no need for su. (Comes in handy when installing software onto a public lab computer.
Obviously Opera has realized that a browser with a cost can no longer survive in this post-2000 market. However, I wonder how long it will take until they open source it?

Can anyone explain a reason why lip reading would be more effective than speech? I'd love to know.
Perhaps in some situations where video is available but not audio? That's the best I can come up with.

The OP posted that is was hard to BUY a PS3. You and the replier are posting about how easy it is to FIND a PS3.
BUY != FIND

So you're saying that inserting objects never meant for the drive is bad?
How do they handle hot soup?
Maybe he's referring to actual CD's shaped like business cards and hearts?

Don't worry, it's painfully obvious that DNF will run on Vista running on a Phantom. In fact, these have the same launch day...

Besides the obvious Mandriva, does anyone know of any other projects which might me affected?
ditto that. It seems every other story these days involves AJAX

I love how they snuck in an attack at Sony in the article. Well done, author!
Can you imagine a Beowulf Clus... oh wait, never mind...

Wow, this is their flagship product! /OSS 1, M$ 0
I've no idea what it does, but thanks, we really appreciate it
