Don't have stuff like that over here. Always puzzles me when you see reports on poor US citizens, paying for their food with food coupons. Are that welfare coupons, or something they cut out from a magazine?
But I just have to vent my concern over the lacking win64 support. The bit-gap between native win32/win64 and wine32 might be the final nail in the coffin for linux on the desktop.
Kevin Mitnick has served the sentence society gave him.
And while it is every employers choice if they want to hire him or not, it is foul play of his prosecutor to argue in public that he should not be given a job.
Even if the prosecutor personally don't believe in reform (no, even though you yanks all seem to believe it, the purpose of imprisonment is not revenge from society's point of view), he is still a DOJ official. How can he send people to jail, claiming it is for their reform, when he obviously don't believe this?
Maybe he is, like somebody here so eloquently put it in his sig, a gay dungeon master.
We've been seeing this for quite some time already. Developers buying completed engines and building their game around that, instead of doing everything from line 1.
Guess it makes sense if you can get a decent engine, that fit your needs, for less money than it would've taken to write it yourself. Real coders still want to do it all by themselves, of course:)
Now maybe we can reap the benefit of this soon, with some games actually centering on gameplay, rather than cool rendering techniques. If I want nice effects, I'll rather watch a demo.
Not all music is created for live performance. Not all music is played by a band with a guitarist, a vocalist, a drummer and a bassplayer.
Your idea of a gig based income for musicians, would only be viable if all "bands" had large amounts of "fans", infatuated by their idols.
I listen mostly to "electronic" music, and damned if I'm going to pay for a gig just to see (and smell) a greasy, long haired, slob fondling his laptop on stage, when I can get the same effect out of playing a cd in my livingroom.
I typed "Falun Gong", pressed enter, and got lots of results. All of them negative towards the Falun Gong Cult, mind you.
Hit number 4: "The Falun Gong cult misled me into killing my beloved uncle"
I repeated the test with Google, only this time, I searched for "Scientology". Pressing "Feeling Lucky" brought me right to the CoS homepage (and not to xenu.net, like it used to do).
So, to sum up:
China: no links to the cult, only anti-cult links.
US: Links to the cult, links to anti-cult information supressed thanks to copyright issues
Seems to me that even though the tools for censorship are quite different, they are in place indeed.
If you work in tech support for Windows users, you know how easy it appearantly is to forget all your passwords (christ). Or render your harddisk permanently unbootable. So..
This Windows NT password & registry editor bootdisk (linux based) is essential.
Knoppix rules. Boot it up. Recover files from ntfs partition, smbmount the users homedirectory. Voila.
Also, since evey time you need a Win98 bootdisk, you think will be the last time you'll ever need one.. bootdisk.com will come in handy.
The point you're missing, is that other parts of the world aren't necessarily so religiously uptight as the US.
Where I live, pornography with sixteen year old lesbians are perfectly acceptable by legal standards. In Holland, thirteen is the limit, if I recall correctly.

It works both ways, baby.
The "oil grab" comment does strike me as a bit uninformed and polemic
You really bought the "spread democracy" angle, didn't you?Ok, thanks for the explanation.
Are those the same?

I can't believe all the fuss over this relatively uninteresting technologogy. Seriously, polyphonic ringtones? Ultra low-res camera? Why?
But my biggest issue with this product is this; is it really the right time for us to support a french phone maker (and even a french standard)?
I say, buy Motorola, a good wholesome US company.
This is nice and all, respect to Transgaming.
But I just have to vent my concern over the lacking win64 support. The bit-gap between native win32/win64 and wine32 might be the final nail in the coffin for linux on the desktop.That's the norwegian blue.

It replaces the far more common concept of modus ponens with something like this:

You know that a technology is sound when it is supported by Ericsson, Nokia and er.. Nintendo.I've made another one:
Feel free.
Wasn't there some controversy about Markoff vs. Mitnick?
No real details on what they're trying to achieve.
Are they aiming on improving software, the hardware or both? Anybody know more about this?Where I live, there was never any moral outrage over D&D.
I almost wish there was. Maybe I wouldn't have wasted so much time on it then.
Makes you think, eh?
If you see a sucker, cut 'em - don't like perpetrators.
It's either "mainstream", "indy" or "foreign" with you guys.
How 'bout rooting for some "good" films?

Nationalism is love of a government. Patriotism is love of a country.
Seems to me that it's when you start loving meaningless abstracts like governments and countries that things start getting out of hand.
90% of my mind is with youHappy 50!
Funny you should say that.
The cause of concern comes from breathing the dust and thus deposit this material in your lungs.
Anyway, it's been quite properly discarded as a health risk.
