a neat project any hardware hacker could appreciate
Hardly! Running Linux or some other OS on an XBox might have been a neat trick a few years ago but now it's old hat. Hell, my grandmother could do it if I pointed her to a good website. Likwise with the Beowolf cluster. Such clusters aren't exactly difficult to construct anymore especially with the advent of projects like OSCAR.
With the obvious success of BitTorrent I wonder why Firefox doesn't support it nativly as a transfer protocol. BitTorrent is a much simpler then SVG and navive support (not via an extension) for it is currently being worked on.
What I don't like about it is that it doesn't use SSL after you log in.
Actaully if you enter "https://gmail.google.com/gmail" in the location bar of your favorite browser you will continue to use a SSL secured connetion after for the duration of your session.
If you're interested in an open audio solution take a look at the Audio DSP project over at OpenCores.Org.
From the web page:
Target of this project is development FPGA and/or FPGA powered real time audio DSP applications. This is Free (like freedom) Hardware project, a PCI card with stand-alone possibility, with high-end digital and analog audio interfaces and MIDI.
The file that he is speaking of is always availiable on the official Linux kernel distribution site. I have included the link below.

What does embedded mean anymore? It's hard to define. An MCU in a microwave is defintly embedded but what about the processor in a new high end digial oscilliscope?
IMHO test and measurement would usually be considered embedded, it is deffinitly real-time. If a scope doesn't acuratly record/display the data it is monitoring acuratly as a function of time then it is useless.

Be aware that there has been some question weather or not Timesys is violoating the GPL. I don't have the links on me but if you search the LKML for "Timesys" you will find at least a couple of messages questioning their proprietary scheduler work.

I'm surprised nobody has suggested this before but I would recommend a tactical nuclear strike against the intruder. I've found that this simple step typically quells the attack.
I would be very carefull about saying that nothing compares to an Intel chipset and CPU combo. You might want to take a look at Apple's dual 970 offerings.
If I were Intel I would be pretty quiet about it as well. How well can one or two of these stack up against a uni or dual Opteron? Sure they have the contiguous memory support (36 bits of it IIRC) but they are lacking the NUMA style Hypertransport interconnects and the on die memory controller.
Enough with the hacks. Give me propper CSS/XHTML implemenation of Slashdot. That was if don't like the way it looks I just just apply my own stylesheet and be happy.
"What I don't understand is why more people aren't building Pentium M desktops."
It's simple. Intel's megaherts myth has finaly come around and bit them in the ass.
I always liked JibJab. Their ficks are a great way to waste some time here working graveyard. Unfortunatly the company I work for recently invested in a highly anoying filtering proxy called Websense. The damn thing filters everything.
I thought your sig attributed to ESR was great "Caffeine is the greatest lubricrant ever created." I did a Google search for it and found no similar quote even with "lubricrant" spelled correctly. Where did you find this quote?
It's not about the gig-o-space as much as it is about the superb interface. Don't get me wrong. I really like having all that space but the UI is really slick. I've heard a lot about the lack of folders but once you get used to the lables you wonder why nobody else had implemented it first. It's great being able more then one label to a message.
Gmail isn't perfect. If it were it wouldn't still be in beta. The filters and addressbook are a bit primitave. I would also really like to have the ability to filter based upon a Google search.
Thus far I give Gmail an A+ and don't see any sign of Google slowing down with it's development and improvment.
Maybe they should do as so many have in the oil industry (i.e. ExxonMobil, ChevronTexaco and ConocoPhillips) and just concatenate the names of the two companies. NovelSuSE or maybe SuSENovel (I prefer the former).

Burn it all.
It's good to hear that Zope v3 has been released. I now egarly await what I assume will be version 3 of the Zope based content management system Plone.

Does anyone have a torrent?

That was way too much hype and marketing speak this early in the morning.

This sounds a lot like an implementation of Mixmaster for TCP.

Where the hell is Pitfall? Pitfall has to be the most boring game on the planet, hands down.

You must be new here or your post would have refered to the GIMP.
