  1. Will flies be there? on Robot Eats Flies to Generate Power · · Score: 1

    The robots will work in toxic areas... I wonder how many flies will survive in some of those areas they want to use the bots in.

  2. Installation of X working? on Debian Installer RC1 Is Out · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Hey, the main problem I had with woody was that I never got X to install. Did they get that fixed?

  3. Re:Should just work on Getting Sony TRV-22 Cams Working w/ G5s? · · Score: 1

    This isn't always true. I have a Samsung/Medion DV camera here, which is recognized in iMovie under OS 9 but not in OS X Jaguar. So to import my video I have to reboot my G4 MDD and then I have to reboot again to start working with it. Also not recognized in FCP.

  4. Re:You've cum to the right place on BRU LE for Mac OS X · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    What the hell did you want to say with this post? I hope someone will remove it ASAP...

  5. Re:Meta RSS? on iTunes Offers RSS Feeds · · Score: 1

    Didn't really look at it, but found this using google: http://www.syndic8.com/

  6. Re:What the fuck? on iTunes Offers RSS Feeds · · Score: 4, Informative

    Or more detailed :
    The RDF Site Summary is actually an extension to the RDF language. Quoting the official RSS v1.0 specification: 'RDF Site Summary (RSS) is a lightweight multipurpose extensible metadata description and syndication format. RSS is an XML application, conforms to the W3C's RDF specification and is extensible via XML-namespace and/or RDF based modularization.'

    RSS feeds are a kind of XML format into which headlines of all posted stories of a website are summarized.

  8. Calculation errors on Mac!? on Drooling Over VA Tech's 1100-Node G5 Cluster · · Score: 1

    We once had a 'discussion' in an apple chat channel about errors made by the Apple Calculator. I just hope they are not visible when you want to do calculations on that cluster... 3.083 - 3.014 = 0.0690000000000003 is what appears on the paper tape from the calculator if you try this calculation. The display shows 0.069, but that is only cause it rounds off. I wonder where that 3*10^-x (too lazy to count) comes from, but can imagine that stuff fed to a supercomputer could give really wrong results if even small calculations are bogus!

  9. Re:Only available in the U.S. on Apple Introduces iTunes Music Store, iTunes 4, new iPod · · Score: 1

    yeah, they will made it available in other countries after they finish installing iPhoto print services there... within 20 years or so you should be able to use it. Just have a little patience.

  10. Re:/.'d :( on Playing with Google · · Score: 1

    Even google itself looks slashdotted, or was that what you meant ?
    I need a 'chicken wav sound' search result :)

  11. Re:FW800 as well? on Apple Issues Power Supply Exchange · · Score: 2, Informative
    As far as I know this kit will make our older G4 MDDs resemble the new FW800 MDDs a little more. The power supply we will get in this kit will probably be the one from the new G4s, and for the CPU fan we really have no idea.

    Also nice to note: Verax is still working on a kit, for which one of our main contributors lend them his G4. He says it is whisper-silent now. Hopefully Verax's solution will still be developed and maybe it will indeed make the mac even more silent than Apple's fix-kit.

  12. No luck for users outside North-America on Apple Bundles InDesign With Power Macs · · Score: 1

    Maybe you will all say I am a whining boy, but I always wonder why the nice deals are not available here in Europe. I am planning to buy a new G4 system for home use and I would just love it to have a copy of InDesign for free with it. But no luck, as this promo is not available over here. Only the LCD-monitor promo is running here now. When I asked Apple staff about it at Apple Expo Paris last week, they didn't even know about the promo. If Apple or Adobe is reading this: please make it a globally available promo! Thanks in advance.
