Being able to work on another terminal while compiling is one of the most beautiful things about *nix, and to do that on anything with less than 512 MB or 1 GB or RAM you want to have some swap.
I really hope that wasn't you saying that. 1 GB of RAM is nice, yes, but the fact that you said it was required to be able to compile and use a terminal is quite funny. So if I open another terminal, I should put in some more RAM? 128mb, 256mb, or 512mb? Maybe just another gig for good measure?
To the article poster: I'm sorry, did you just mention how IE is tied with the release of Longhorn, and therefore there won't be any innovation in CSS, XHTML, or any other web standard?
May I remind you that IE does not adhere to CSS or XHTML specifications. You also make it sound as if Internet Explorer defines web standards. Wrong again. The World Wide Web Consortium defines XHTML, CSS, SVG, and many more. W3C is the leader of web innovation and standards production (yes I know that makes me sound like a W3C fanatic).
As a TSR (Technical Support Representative, fancy name eh?), I'm on both ends of the stick nearly each day. At work I handle cable modem tech support and at home I have my own cable modem (not with the company I work for). The truth of the matter is a firewall can cause problems. Even if it hasn't been updated by YOU, the firewall itself may have been updated through automatic updates (Norton AntiVirus does this).
That is why it's one of the first questions we ask (well I ask, anyways).
While similar, this is not the same. They aren't using a number to identify something, they're using a word that identifies a number to identify something else.
It really doesn't matter if they give credit to the mathematical creator of Googol. As another poster pointed out, "Google" predates "Googol" as far back as 1381.
Take words you don't want people to see and replace them with "[omitted]". Problem solved. No need to worry about word identification through pixel sizes, since the word was removed completely.
Gamasutra has published an interesting article on a different game convention I hope I'm not the only one that noticed Gamasutra is spelled a lot like Kamasutra. What kind of message are they trying to convey?

Suse 9.1 Reviews?
·
· Score: 1
This "knowledge" comes from using SuSE 9.0.
1. SuSE uses Grub for it's boot loader, but I suppose you mean the installation wizard. YaST is used, it's a very nice, user-friendly GUI. 2. Installation is only available for free from ftp, but not in the form of CDs. You have to do an ftp install or if you have a computer setup with nfs you can do a local network install. 3. SuSE does excellent automatic hardware detection with YaST. 4. I think so. heh. 5. AFAIK, SuSE is one of the top 3 that most vendors release RPMS for (usually, in no particular order): Debian, SuSE, Mandrake. 6. Yes, there are many included. Buying the retail package, it comes with a DVD and 5 cds (I think they reduced the CD count though). 7. If by logical you mean where they should be in accordance with linux file placement, for the most part, yes. The X11 config file is in it's correct folder. executables in bin/sbin, etc.
I had multiple network cards and it detected them all and configured them, but it didn't like me having multiple network cards. It wouldn't even let me use the right one.
Again, this experience is with 9.0, but I'm sure some of it applies to 9.1.
I really hope you don't think it'll cost less than $9,000 (within the alloted time period) to travel to Mars and back, which seems to be what you're suggesting. $9,000 grand is a lot less than what people drop down in cash for an SUV.
$9,000 is hardly a monetary incentive. I seriously hope you're joking. From re-reading that last sentence, now I KNOW you're joking.
You don't understand. When information is allowed to flow freely ideas abound. Sure, there are thousands and thousands of people who write about who they're dating and what color dress they're wearing to the movies tonight, but occasional you come across people that have ideas. Real ideas, good ideas. I don't think it's the information overload, as in the true meaning of it being excessive. Unrefined yes. Blogs are like slightly-refined brainstorming activities.
The dissemination of information is freedom and is one of the rights we hold dearly.
Solar cell technology seems to be getting more and more advanced. When will the time come when we are able to use it to effectively power a complete house?

Yeah, and the flux capacitor is broken too.
heh... it's probably biased since Netcraft is running FreeBSD too.
With Vonage, you get all the equipment you need (one box), and for $30/month you get unlimited local and national long distance (including Canada).

Ha, let me try that again. I meant to say Norton Internet Security, though Norton AntiVirus can cause problems with e-mail.
You're wrong, I don't know it. He said "past 3 days". Where does it say "today" in that?

Technically he's right. "The past 3 days" means the 3 days prior to that day.

Hrm, New York Times is hosting a news article about giant rats...
Coincidental? I think not.

You forgot the main thing needed: Money. And lots of it.
PCI-Express is meant to replace AGP. From what little I've read into it, it will require lower voltages than AGP and has a wider bus.

I suppose I'm one of the rare ones. I've only mentioned "blog" on my website twice in the 3 months I've had it online.

[best Dr. Evil voice] Finally, I can complete my dream to put a laser on the moon. I will call it the, "Death Star".
If you want to get picky and nasty, I can pick on you too. It's actually "Graphical Processing Unit", like "Central Processing Unit".
If I had taken the extra 5 minutes to look I would've found bicyclinginfo.org.
