I saw a movie about OZTRIA once. Antie Em was there, and the scarecrow and the tinman and the cowerdly lion and Toto too. I'm willing to bet Microsoft will send the Oztrian first brigade of flying monkeys after those hooligans.
Let me get this straight. They sent a letter to microsoft telling them that they wanted to work for them to close security holes, in exchange for being able to leagally put linux on the box. They essentially admit that they could do this with out microsoft's help and it would be illeagal. So they didn't get a response and are now doing what they admitted to being illegal and are probaly going to be sued for it. Brillant. Didn't anyone hear of asking for forgiveness rather than permission? Leagally the only thing MS is guilty of is being a jerk. They don't want anyone to have linux on the xbox and they don't want unlicensed or pirated games to be played on the system. Apparently, they would like to have it their way and use their law department to enforce it. Personally, I'm confused as to why anyone would really want to put linux on the xbox. It works just as well on a regular computer. I guess its sort of "cool" and "rebelous". Not really worth being sued over, IMHO.
Its a shame that governments control the airwaves, but unfortunately in order for them to be of any use they sorta haveto.They regulate the airwaves as to reduce interferance that would otherwise jam just about every band. This way large corperate radio stations won't interfere with someone's remotely powered pacemaker. And SGI can't fry my pc's wifi card if I put my labtop next to their latest supercomputer. Its sort of a tragedy of the commons situation. The solution is to get rid of the commons by assigning ownership to them.
I need to stop printing and start drinking. Its "cheaper". Yeah honney. I was thinking about printing out the manual for your new stairmaster, but I wanted to save money so I drank a case of cris and then put it together.
Granted. But with a labtop I can be laying down on my couch, bed, hammock, bed of grass, ect. Thats so much more comfortable than a chair. Plus, if the room with the desktop is too loud, hot,cold or radioactive, I can take the labtop to a more suitable enviorment( I dont know maybe starbucks, or a grassy knoll). I can get into all of those comforatble reading positions and places that I read in.
I never thought notebooks were that usefull until I got one myself. Its almost as powerfull as my desktop,but portable and more comfortable to use. Which makes me wonder if a stupider labtop that simply connects to a more powerful desktop would be even more usefull. I guess they still need to workout the bandwidth and display issues.
It will work using photons. The Casmir effect has experimentally been proven. FYI the casmir effect is attractive force between two mirrors that face each other due to the momentum of virtual photons.
The complete cycle in the case of a solar sail includes the manufacture of the "heat" ie the sun itself. When you mesure the efficency of the the entire cycle, you see that it does obey the law. QED.
The detective in the short titled "A ditective's story has a typewriter that he uses to surf the web. I would really like to see if I couldn't build one. I grew up using an old non electronic typewriter, hated having to use whiteout or editing existing documents, but man that keyboard was sweet. At least I've never found a keyboard as bad as those on some electronic typewriters, but Dell's comes close.
Hence, the quipe about irony at the end, chief.

What good has slashdot ever accomplished? If anything I think that slashdot's community is a demostration of why sometimes its better to have products developed by a small group of people( like *BSD). Seriously have you ever notived the vast amount of crud thats posted here?
PS: Yes I see the irony in posting this on slashdot. So Save it.
I guess its a matter of opinion. At least with the aerosmith RunDMC combination people learned that hiphop had something to do with african american culture. I knew actually sat though some arguments over wheather it was blondie or the beastie boys that invented rap.
Secondly, I left out the Beastie Boys (mental block is all that is) who grew up in the same neighborhood as Anthrax and they all went to each other's shows. The Beastie Boys are the less-commercial fathers of this branch of metal, less commercial than the Aerosmith/RunDMC bullshit that came out, but much more likely to be the father of the Limp Bizkit line than Aerosmith.
How can you say that the Beastie boys were less commercial than anyone? Their first albulm was the first rap albumn to hit number 1. Rather than complain about derivitate groups,I think that people should just remeber that talent is the most important aspect. Unfortunatly neither linkin park nor limp biskit has any. Back in the day, we booed Limp Biskit off the stage in milwakee. Because they sucked. And ya know, some things change and some do not.
It is meant for corperate users. Desktop linux for the group that would be the least likely to actually use linux on the desktop. I think Suse should just droup out of the software market and proptly start selling mennorahs in mecca.
In the corporate world, it's all about who you can blame when the shit hits the fan. If your whole windows network goes down, and your group loses 5 days of work time, you can say "microsoft is to blame! sue them!" and your boss doesn't fire you. If your whole *nix network goes down, and you downloaded the OS for free, you have no one to blame, and you get a pink slip.
If your whole windows network goes down, you tell your boss its windows fault. He won't believe you (it works for everyone else at our competitiors). He'll tell you to fix it.
If your whole *nix network goes down. He'll tell you to fix it. In principle, you can actually fix it if you know enough about how its put together. This is why I'm starting to think that these specialised versions that suse and redhat make are not a good idea. They are starting to insert propitary pieces into linux distros. This makes figuring out how the system works more complex and less flexible.
You'll only get fired if you present your boss with worthless excuses time after time. They may not know the technology as well as you, but if you are unable to communicate why something you are in charge of is repetedly failing the company then you will not be around for very long even if the failure is not your fault.
JDICTATOR. It doesn't order your java software to perform it routinely tourtures a random sample of javasoftware as a warning to others. It fights performances issues "to the Pain". So far it just consists of C code with big ears that gets picked on a lot, so look out, it will have a chip on its shoulder when it gets loose.
He's just an advanced organic chemist with some crazy OOP skillz.
Nope organic chemists have trouble with basic. They'd never understand polymorphisim. He must be the one and true GOD if he has the skills of OOP and the patience of Theorectical computational Organic chemistry.
Yeah, yeah, they are hog-tied because you can't easily re-compile the entire windows platform to use new instruction sets.
The NT kernel was designed to be portable to any achetecture, but thats not the point. Other software would have to be recompiled to use the new instruction set( any and all applications that you would want to run on it).
Only a Biologist would be so anal as to declare such a assinine statemate. The standards really don't give a crap, they are not living entities. Most scientists , and biologists that have a head above their sholders, use what ever is most convienint. Absolutely, no si unit is "anoying". Only those who do not understand physics want to use kilograms as a measurement of force. Not anyone in the scientific community(except maybe for nutritionists. I had to teach a physics for nurses class and the stupid book said that kilograms were a mesurement of force, and that Work=Weight x Distance).
SI does not apply to computer science. There isn't si a unit of data declared.
Bad pickup lines:
If you don't like red then stop running away from me,.. baby.
Are you're eyes actually blue or its it that I'm falling into them?
A Good Trafic Excuse:
I'm sorry officer, but the light was blue when I entered the intersection. It didn't turn red until I got through the intersection.
the point of the preceeding post was that some sizes make more sence for a particular industry. 4x8 is a better size for construction then 1mx2m. The problem isn't in the conversions( metric is much better for this) but the magnitude of the fundemental units.
The "spinoff" vector. Thats rich. Yeah... those things need to be "calibrated". I think your computer must be HIV positive. Too much uprotected cybersex.

This is not a prediction that comes from observing sailboats, rather it comes directly from relitivity.
