It's called sarcasm. Look it up in the, what was it called, oh yeah, DICTIONARY.
If you modded the parent down, you must absolutely JACK SHIT about the kernel. You've ruined a perfectly good joke/retort that apparently you didn't get.
make modules && make install_modules is so incredibly difficult to comprehend it made me tear my eyes out.
And that depmod that the boot script ran by default took a whole FIVE SECONDS! I mean what is this bullshit? I don't have all day to wait!
Awww shit, the demand-based module loader loaded my sound driver without asking when I double clicked my Nelly MP3s. Seriously, before you know it by network driver will be ordering my summer clothes and booking vacations without asking! Is my privacy and control of my computer worth anything anymore???
She will probably have been asked common questions about caffeine and other easily available drugs and should have ready answers to questions such as these. GPs read the medical journals and will be on the lookout for issues that are pertinent to inquiries her patients make. And she's probably had a few strange cases involving caffeine, among other things. Maybe even a poisoning.
I don't think your average slashdotter can comment much more than on personal experience. While that may have been the intent of the ask.slashdot, it's not something you should forget to mention. People tend to lend this place too much authority.
One example, and there are other studies with similar findings. But the effects on bones and cardiovascular health are nonetheless worth careful consideration.
in your tap water that must otherwise be in a particularly pleasing combination. This is why some people prefer water bottled from certain springs (natural mineral content).
in the form factor of the Siemens S60. You know, where the keyguard slides off to one side and becomes two handed, with the screen in the middle. If they took that design, and made it so that it functioned primarily as a phone in the "compact" mode, and as the gaming system, webbrowser/email tool in the "open" mode, that would prompt me to go get one.
It's about the only Microsoft thing I would ever recommend to anyone who was suggesting something other than Microsoft.
It makes my nipples hard when I use MSC and the revamped policy tools. And XP theme/DirectX9 capabilities lurk underneath for when you need to be distracted.
It's great. It also doesn't look like complete ass with a half-done icon set and primary colors. Grey and blue and antialiased. Works for me.
1) You can treat them like a DAT tape and write sequential files to them without issue (using "dvbackup" for OSX or linux) 2) DV video files are trivially encoded and decoded.
So buying a DV camera with firewire is like getting a generic tape drive (for backups to tape or whatever) for free, in a round-about fashion. This is why there is no market for a generic DV tape drive. (Not to mention that Sony's 8mm version of DV specifically designed for these purposes, called AIT, has better seek times, density, and cost per GB)
No digital video format of modern times has any particular reason to not be PC compatible, especially for the consideration the writers of firmware for OEM devices. With PCs, the ability to use these media formats as well will become easier with time.
Only the media producers themselves want to dumb down the full realization of new technologies. This is an abomination. Let the techies do what they will! The rest of the public will still buy the new media formats in droves at WalMart.
DVDs were designed to be generic RO media for storing various data, not just for use in set-top video players. Thus the choice for what IS an entirely PC-friendly format. (UDF layout, MPEG2 video, ATAPI-friendly data rates)
Something has to do the decoding. Cost-wise, it makes sense for the PC's hardware to do that work. No one would buy $200 worth of extra equipment to use a PC monitor to watch a movie. They want to use the fancy hardware they already bought.
Samba 3.0 can talk to an Active Directory PDC and using winbindd (for the NSS) along with pam_smb and kerberos (for authentication) and smbmount (for home directories) we can provide a full windows users on linux solution.
I had occaision one day to hang around a pro-sumer TV/home audio boutique and they had a whole wall of _nice_ plasma and LCD displays. They were playing DirecTV HD, specifically DiscoveryHD. After a few minutes viewing I was astonished how artifact ridden the feed was. You could see all sorts of blocking effects, especially around the edges of objects moving across the frame. The pricey TVs made the artifacts abundantly clear, and it kind of took the wind out of my sails in wanting to get HD-capable DirecTV soon. I'm wondering if it's the network, or the carrier, or what? It doesn't have me very excited. Maybe I'll wait until DVDs (or the equivalent) start coming out in 720p formats before I buy new equipment.

Good job, Mr. Know-it-all.
They've been raging since god knows when. Maybe in a consumer's mind, post-Napster, yeah, they're suddenly noticing the flamewars.
ntbackup.exe is actually halfway useful. Give it a shot.
stable little business climate.
If it's irrelevant, why bother posting?
SYSV would migrate into Win32? I can't.
They already have Unix Services for Windows, which provides any API/shell/command related stuff you're missing.

Hotkeys. Give me a goddamn break, like that's an issue.

After a 12oz serving, you start to get thristy for water as a follow up.
gack.
baka.

showing off her ass? There is some shred of decency in the gaming public. For this I applaud.

$(( is valuable in inner loops when spawning eval repeatedly can slow down a scan of files in a list, etc. etc.

Motivated by video, industry stalemate resulting in compromise to a generic LCD. I see this happening more and more.

They should be using H.264. Nothing less would make sense.
