Been using Mandrake/Mandriva off and on since 2001 (8.1).
The x.2 and the 10.x (through 2006) were pretty ugly. 2007 and 2007.1 seem to be pretty good.
Until Ubuntu, MDK had the rep as *THE* newbie friendly distro. The installer is still second to none (with the caveat that it seems to overwrite the MBR with grub even if you tell it to install grub on the root partition instead).
It's not just a matter of hitting it. You've got to deal with dwell time. That is, keep your DE weapon on-target long enough to pump sufficient joules to do damage.
You've still got to worry about dwell time. It's not enough just to hit the target for a fraction of a second, you have to hold on target long enough to pump enough joules into it to do damage.
The question was, "OK, I'll buy it from Home/Home Office. Why can't I pay with a business credit card?" Why the fsck does Dell care HOW the computer is paid for, so long as it is paid for?
Yeah, but they started downhill when they dropped Steve Ciarcia's Circuit Cellar. Yeah, I know he started his own mag for it, but it was the beginning of the end for Byte. The second sign was abandoning the cool covers for photos instead.
Few doubt that piracy is a significant problem. The major U.S. studios lost $2.3 billion last year to online piracy and an additional $3.8 billion to bootleg DVDs, according to industry statistics.
Uh, I suspect that "few" means that "the few who have examined the industries claimed 'losses' and compared them to actual revenue".

Don't to account for strike angle and thermal blooming as well.

Yep, I'm a US-ian. The bit on the Federalist should have clued you in.
Points, schmoints.
What does Marty Bergen have to do with this?
"Oppenheimer is most famous for working with Einstein on the A-bomb and making an "oh god look at that" sort of comment during one of the tests."
The quote is "I am become death, the destroyer of worlds", and the test was the Trinity test in July 1945.
It's not distrust of government workers, it a distrust of government in general. And it dates back all the way to the founding of the Republic.
Read the Federalist Papers, for more details.
Question. Does anyone know if there's an HD tuner/capture card that does *NOT* implement broadcast flag?

You're answering the wrong question.
The question was, "OK, I'll buy it from Home/Home Office. Why can't I pay with a business credit card?" Why the fsck does Dell care HOW the computer is paid for, so long as it is paid for?
Why even "my.yahoo.com"? Why not just "mail.yahoo.com", if you just want the email?
I suspect they meant the USS Yorktown.
Yeah, but they started downhill when they dropped Steve Ciarcia's Circuit Cellar. Yeah, I know he started his own mag for it, but it was the beginning of the end for Byte. The second sign was abandoning the cool covers for photos instead.
No, you've got it backwards. It would be pirated *MORE*, just to get rid of the picture!
Pluto and Eris prefer the term "Gravitationally Challenged".
I suspect you're joking or trolling, but the "billion-dollar space pen" is an urban myth.
Uh, I suspect that "few" means that "the few who have examined the industries claimed 'losses' and compared them to actual revenue".
Doesn't count. Patents are just about the only form of so-called "Intellectual Property" that aren't at issue in the SCO suits.
SCOX didn't have any, and IBM dropped their patent counterclaims for their own reasons (mostly it wasn't worth it)
I'd say he subscribes to it... He *developed* it!
This is based on the Transactional Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics.
It's based on hard science, and makes testable predictions. TFS grabbed the most sensational lines from TFA.
Nothing to see here. Move along.
At first I thought SoundExchange was billing the CongressCritters for [pinky-to-mouth]ONE BILLION DOLLARS[/pinky-to-mouth].
Then I reread it, and realized Real, Yahoo! and the others were pointing out the consequences of the CRB decision.
Hey, would you say that "even a developer can do it"?
No, it's the DRM. It's an unprotected data path to the printer, so the images are degraded!
File a bug report. That's what I did with FileZilla, and the license screen was changed in 2.30 to reflect it.
