then they can fire all the employees/artists and just have the government forward the collected tax money directly to their shareholders's bank accounts...
I'm going to buy some stock in the music industry right now:)
Everyone here seems to be extolling the virtues of mac OS X. I'm just curious if anyone has had experience putting Linux on a mac power/ibook. I'm thinking of buying a new laptop some time soon (6 months or so) and I just love those mac notebooks, but I also love my Linux. How easy/doable is it to put Linux on one of these?
Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape-like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered
I just hope they add a clippy like interface to emacs. Nothing like having productivity interuped by a dancing paperclip. It's not fare that vi gets one. vigor
This article [slashdot] is the reason I started playing Go this summer. It is truly a beautiful game. When playing chess I'm trying to crush an opponent, when playing Go I feel more like I'm painting a picture with them. Plus I love that two players of uneven skill can play an even game because of the way the rating system is set up.
5) Most importantly, pretty means very little to gamers
Pretty used to be really important to me until one of my professors got me to start playing Duke Nukem 3D. That game has the best game play fetchers I have ever seen. I don't understand why in modern games I can't close doors or wait until later to use my quad damage. I droped Quake III and Unreal for Duke:)

This isn't just MS.
What do I do if I want to buy a iBook/TiBook w/o an OS?

Was that accursed real player icon idiotically blinking in the system tray on the screen shots page.
God, I hate the people at real so much.
I'm thinking of buying a mac because they make the smallest, lightest laptops around, but I'm going to stick with my linux.

Have you ever read that biography of his 'Just For Fun?' He really, realy sounds like a child in that one.
If feel the same way you do.
Big fan of linux. Not a fan of Linus.

P.S. I can feel the MOD -1 Heretic coming already

Slashdot very slow today...
I wonder if they accidently linked to themselves in one of the stories. I'd love to see the headline: Slashdot slashdotted.
I think I will know the difference when I go to eat that Burger King Hamburger in the fishtank and:
1) It isn't wet
2) I can't even touch it at all.
Ditto for the holographic girl sitting on my desk.
This looks really good. Anyone out there know how/if it can be used with ximian evolution?
Wow. Such a powerful flashback I fell out of the chair.
Some jokes just get funnier when the person they are on dosen't get it. :)

Chess is nothing. I'll be impressed when an A.I. chat bot can talk a girl into a date. This would be a tool every slashdotter could appreciate.
I'd be greatful if I had 10% left
go outside and play :)
Sounds more like my mother after I've been working on code all day
