In the end the planet will be a dry wasteland, but by the time I'm an old man, we'll be able to launch a probe that sends information about humanity amongst the stars - just at the same time I reawaken safe and well to find myself captain of a starship again.
Plus I'll have learned how to play the flute - bonus!
Not popular? It accounts for 5% of all UK network traffic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iplayer). Considering the other 95% is porn, that's still significantly popular.
Who said anything about ordinary requests to Google to recall emails? Not me! I'm talking about the bank approaching the court and making a ludicrous request (after a ludicrous mistake). A bit of common sense could've been applied at least.
Ultimately, they were idiots for sending out the email, but they compounded their mistake with another when making a stupid request to cancel an innocent person's email account. If it were me, I'd be livid.
Couldn't Google simply have deleted the single email. They would also have been able to tell if the user had read it or not, although what they would've done if it had been read, who knows - but it's not the user's fault.
I don't see why any of this is a problem. I fear that half the people here imagine having to swing the wiimote around frantically just to get Link to walk from one side of the room to another. You'll be using the nunchuck add-on to move, in other words a regular analog joystick as seen on the N64 and GC. To attack with the sword, you again, just use a regular button on the wiimote.
It's only when it comes to firing the bow, fishing and things like that then you'll start to really use the wiimote's features.
I don't think it'll be any more difficult to control whichever version you get, and if you plan to have both consoles then I would personally go for the Wii version.
Having two versions just lets Nintendo promote the Wii a little more by having a 'killer app' on it. Although why they couldn't stick both a GC disk and a Wii disk inside the same box and charge the price of a normal game is beyond me.
5x5x5 cubes exist, I even owned one once (before it broke). Took me about 20-30 minutes to solve it - not very quick, but I was still happy to have memorised all the little formulas:-)
This topic isn't about standards - it's about buggy IE and memory leaks. Just because a web app is written for an intranet doesn't mean it doesn't follow the correct standards.
So once again, I'll reiterate that *I* don't have to worry about IE.
When writing a website, it does not have to be written for IE if the website is part of an intranet and none of the users use IE.
You are right for the rest, but not for my case, hence my original comment stands.
I don't believe the GPL 2.0 is perfect. For example, if I write a piece of software released under the GPL version 2 that acts as some kind of network service, and a company modifies the source and makes the network service available to the public over the internet, I believe they should make their modified source available.
True, they haven't released the binary, but they don't have to with services that people can access using a web browser, or a telnet client. In fact, it may be to their competitive advantage to keep the source only to themselves. It's cases like this that version 2 doesn't cover, and I believe it should be extended to that area - especially with more 'remote applications' slowly taking over desktop ones.
There's a lot of comments on this older/. article.
The disc spinning backwards seems to be some sort of chinese whisper due to the fact that the tracks written on it are reversed.
But there's a simpler way I know they spin in the right direction - I own one, and if you have it running and open the case, the disc is spinning in the regular direction.
The GC discs spin the same way as other CD/DVDs (clockwise). However, they read from the outside towards the inside (I believe the XBox does the same). This allows faster bootups and so on.
I think the problem with copying is getting your hands on the 8cm discs.
You can get blank ones if you own a GC dev kit, but good luck getting them on ebay;)
I've got a god-awful knitted jumper from my gran which I swear is an attempt at the 'Hello World' program.
If I get kitted up in everything she's ever gave me, I'd be a walking Beowulf cluster, and how long would it be before SCO pointed at my socks and filed a lawsuit?
It would've been nice if they had published her own personal email address. Then all us slashdotters could continue to mail her crap every day until she 'opts out' by replying to each one.
How many readers does Slashdot get again?;-)

They did another crowd-source event last year. The hunt was on for all the viewers to help find exo-planets - they succeeded.

...Just terminated.
Take several used condoms, some dirty needles, put them in sand covered plastic shopping bags - voila, instant sea smell.
At least, it smells like the sea near where I live.

So on the whole I'd like Zelda on my Wii to not involve seamen...
There's a thought...
So that means the bug isn't in IE - it's in EI-EI version 0.

Not sure about the sound card, but I have an ATI video card and 2 serial ata drives. Both worked fine after the install of Fedora Core 4.

You can't not run on IE...
Um...I'll think you find I can actually.
