I'll believe it when I'm using it. "As fast as your line can go" can mean many things, and in my opinion this may last as long as TPG's unlimited 1.5mbit conns.
However press like this can only be good, even if it is a bit shifty.
Incidentally, the same is true of KHTML, which (last time I looked) was integrated pretty tightly into KDE. True, you have a choice to not use KDE, but then I seem to be managing pretty well using XP and not using IE, OE, etc.
Umm no it can't. IE is integrated into the kernel. iexplore.exe is just a shell that calls the kernel to render pages. Konquerer is just another application, and you can easily uninstall konquerer as well as the libraries and use other applications as suppliments, as long as you remove the MIMEs.
However there is nothing to stop an application from calling the konquerer or gecko libraries, or requiring their installation. It's simple enough with shared libraries to do.
Have you ever thought that this might be done as a favour for intel as opposed to intel being on the other side? Intel might just be saying "I don't want to appear to get involved, so just depose the required evidence".
It's a requirement to put "... Recommends Microsoft(r) Windows(r) XP Professional/Home Edition" (depending on what type) on an advertisement whenever a business sells a computer with an OEM version of Windows. It used to be for any computer sold (even if it has an alternate OS such as linux installed) until a civil suit made them relent. I would have the source URL but I can't find it using google - you get an enormous amount of computer ads should you search for "recommends Microsoft Windows XP"!
and perhaps they should not force retailers to put the rediculous "... recommends Windows XP Professional/Home Edition". I can't see that being anything but trying to oust competitors in the operating systems market.
Basically they've quite deliberately (under the pretence of removing an overly "burdensome" section of the license) inserted a loophole that they can exploit. Developers working under the CDDL just have to trust that Sun are "good" and working under their best interests.
I'm not sure I trust Sun the way they hope that the community trusts them. Even though IBM's 500 patent donation (just looking at quantity, not quality) is smaller, I think it's more significant to the open source movement. Only when Sun legally bind themselves for our trust like IBM has will I start trusting them.
Of course you can make it like that. You're just ignorant. The main reason that you don't do that is that with most (pretty much all nowadays) distros the main installation path is to just open the package manager, click on the thing you want to install, and it downloads and installs (and updates on a routine basis).
However if you can't get it through the package manager, there are many solutions you can use, most notably Bitrock InstallBuilder which, though proprietary, can be used for free with open source programs. I have used it myself and find it extremely easy to use, extremely quick, and pretty well painless. The final installer also works cross-distro.
So please don't spread misinformation when you don't know for yourself, when all you're spreading is your own guesses. Ignorance is not an excuse.
what I was doing was recompiling the kernel to specifically add some modules that I wanted in there. It was not a "normal" activity. But yes, I forgot to install then imediately when I had the X-Server to use download and install the nvidia drivers, but I didn't do that so I had to go through lynx.
no they won't be. They don't explicitly link to files they know are copywrite protected, but it is done automatically. They also have exceptions in the law covering search engines.
because, of course, there are so many torrent sites hosted in norway.
Anyway it isn't the same thing. They link to a torrent, which is a harmless ~10kb piece of data. What the user does with the torrent is none of the web-site owner's business, and if the data is fed through the right programs the programs can connect to another site which can give links to where it may be downloaded. But the torrent sites aren't linking to the actual files.
He's supposed to be a droid. I mean there's millions of them - someone's gotta name them. In a hypothetical situation, it may have went something like this: "Steve", "Bob", "Jerry", "Grevis", "Butthead", "Aw fuck, I'm taking a break".
Grevis' name was misspelled but he became an honoured general later on. Fuck was taunted all through school, while I'm created confusion for generations to come.
It means that on most (meaning 'secure') systems it is impossible to log in as root from remote locations. On linux this is default. The point the great*-grandparent made has absolutely nothing to do with installing software on the server.
It was a typo, I meant Dungeon. Yoo see, I have specially mapped my keyboard so that the 'O' is next to the 'U', and as yoo'd expect, every so often I miss the 'U' and accidentely hit 'O' qoite often. I hope yoo onderstand, it is a simple typographical error, nothing more.
This is false advertising - when most people think Chimera they think Dongeons and Dragons etc. They even have a picture of a lion with the head of a goat and the tail as a serpant.
So I read this article and it talks about cells in petri dishes and mice with 1% human brains (which, from what I've read, is a bit of a downgrade).
I think that there's no sense in starting an uproar over "creating new species" and "playing god" yet. A petri dish is ever so slightly different from a goat-lion-serpant or a girlfriend with the head of a shark.
lol sorry I'm not American so my American geography, as you've seen there, is sketchy at best - I should have looked it up on Google. I thought that Salt Lake City was on the west coast, I may be thinking of something else. Where I'm living at the moment, at least, in Sydney, will be under water. My parent's place which is several hundred metres above sea level, will most probably not be!
But anyway, the problem is that there's no way using current technology to predict what will happen. It doesn't just work like "China will be like Malaysia and Siberia will be like China". It just doesn't work like that. There are storms and seasons and, more importantly, currents which cause all of those. There's a chance that the gulf stream will be destroyed, which will mean that Siberia (and Great Britain) will not have farmland but be fully ice, meanwhile America may turn into a barran unlivable wasteland. In the Day After Tomorrow's scenario, with just a 'simple' cold current there would be enormous storms. Those are a type of things called "super-hurricanes" (should I say cyclones?) which are a most frightening aspect which is what most people comment on when talking about "bigger storms", not the *small* storms that hit Florida. They would cause tsunamis anyway.
We would most definitely not lose *some* species. Definitely in the 11 degree scenario we would lose *most* species, for various reasons. Some just simply wouldn't live through a climatic change, water species will be killed by currents, many will be killed by the storms etc.
*shrug* They're pretty certain that there's going to be some disasterous changes.
Firstly, it meant 40 degrees farenheit per second, and it stopped at -200 degrees celcius or lower apparently. As far as I know that scenario has been disproved anyway.
But saying average temperatures rise 11 degrees does not mean "oh it's 30 degrees now it'll be 41 degrees in a hundred years". Lets move away from the fact that I live where it gets to 40 degrees, and I most definitely don't want to live in a place where it's 50 degrees. But other things happen that are just unpredictable. Global weather is so complex we can't predict what will happen, but the following things are likely: For you, the sea levels will raise to at least destroy Salt Lake at least because of the ice caps melting. It is quite likely also the atmosphere will become unbreathable to humans. There will be more storms that are more violent. Entire groups of species will become extinct, especially plantlife and especially in the northern hemisphere since they are not very well equiped for major input of energy and will quite simply burn up (having life's major food source being eliminated isn't neccessarily a good plan), and anyway if the plants are eliminated then basically the planet turns into pure deserts, which makes daytime temperatures rise even more (at a sacrifice to nighttime temperatures), so it may well be in the 60 degree areas. There will also be more frequent and more violent volcanic eruptions because of the extra heat being fed into the crust. But anyway, we have more to worry about than "wearing short sleeves".
I live in Australia. I pay $85 per month (approx US$50-$55) for the best deal around. It is 512kb/s down/256kb/s up. It has no cap. This is the best deal in Australia.

You do know that there's no netscape code left don't you?

"Trustworthy" computing is DRM i.e. give control of your computer to Billy Gates.
Isn't it logical? How could someone hack into someone elses computer when they don't have any control over their own computer?
Have you ever thought that this might be done as a favour for intel as opposed to intel being on the other side? Intel might just be saying "I don't want to appear to get involved, so just depose the required evidence".

I'm pretty sure it's a reference to yesterday's BatMax story.

You obviously haven't fucked up your X-Server yet have you? They try to make it as idiot-proof as possible, but I am a very strong idiot it seems.
Sorry, it's proper spelling is accidentally (at least where I live). Well, technicely that's my problem I suppose, but I'll still blame my keyboard...
