Ok, so blocking them is a good thing, sure - but what long term good will this do: a spammer will just move right along to the next ISP that doesn't give 2c about sending spam and it will continue...
Maybe if more ISPs followed suit, this would be more pleasing, but what to do with dedicated spamhausen out there?
Sounds great, though how much use would conventional and current ways of treating X applications scale down to a relatively tiny mobile screen?
Seems like there has to be some changing of the interfaces of the software as well as the nuts and bolts behind the scenes.
According to the article, it's going to be written by the same guy who created the series 'Queer As Folk'.
So will the next thing to come from this guy is "Queer As Who"?
"Who reads EULAS anyway?" - ethical treatment of handling advertisements is that if they are to be displayed with this software it must be displayed prominently so the user knows what s/he is getting themselves into.
Perhaps SCO knows their claims are rubbish, and they are in a sinking ship, and that they are trying to drive their stock high enough as possible so they can get out with a bit of a golden lining in their pockets before the ship goes down?
Just a thought...
Dot matrix was the only oldest printing technology I could think of the time. I had this old Star printer that would stuff up in paper-feeding all the time...
If these are really going to be implemented to do alerts and things as mentioned, are we going to have dot-matrix printouts like they used to be or something better, like an inkjet -- or what about a small LCD screen to save space?
Conceivably, it seems one of these machines would chew through a paper roll or two in a short time...
Interesting that smarts still counts for something, and that they're not just employing talented developers just for the producs they have created.
Hope the trend continues.
Do the KDE team have a usability expert contributing? Or does the KDE team do usability testing?
There is always the need for someone other than coders on a software project!
Try Wikipedia, it's information written by the poeple, so I'm sure the information would be more geared to explanations and more knowledge based approache than pure fact based approaches. You could also try Wikimedia-textbooks, but I'd wait till its ismore mature.
What's to prevent you from installing XP once, using something like Partition Magic to resize the partitions, and then installing Linux or whatever?
Seems to me the only evil thing about this is that reinstalling XP might be a pain?
Now this helps you actually find the content of a page, web advertisers are going to start kicking up a fuss that Popout Prism is perceptually downplaying the importance of their ads...
Doesn't say how chunky the battery will be.
Or how heavy it will be.
Battery life is a Good Thing, but if it's gotta be at the price of portability, what's the point for a laptop?
Well, there's lots of proof that McBride is delirious:)
Another snippet is basically their claim that Linux developers couldn't have possibly coded up NUMA support et al, by themselves, so they must have swiped it from someone else (point 86 here).
Shows how much faith SCO really has in Linux...
"I should note that Ralph Yarrows, head of the Canopy group which owns 46% of SCO, was the one to organize the anti-protest and was the one who had the posters made."
Very interesting, considering Canopy owns a Linux clustering company, which supports Linux's use and even has a Linux BIOS product!
We have natural resources like corn, tapioca (which can also be used to make plastic bags), and even banana fibre, which can't be pulped down but can be made into superstrong paper and card, yet we create still plastics which don't biodegrade and cause harm to the environment....

I'm probably nitpicking, but OS X is directly based off OPENSTEP. NeXTSTEP and OPENSTEP are two different creatures, actually.

If you spill beer on a copy protected CD (you know, the kind with induced errors on it), does the fungus distort the errors so they disappear?
If so, will the fungus be sued under the DMCA?

I remember reading a while back that Microsoft had literally too much money for its own good.
So this is where some of it goes, presumably. Probably will be a win for MS, anyway.

Is this sand so smart it knows you don't want it in your swimmers or your clothes when you go to the beach? :)
I know, I know :) You learn something every day!

No one will forget "The SCO Group" for a *long* time. Like they say "bad publicity is better than no publicity"...
...as a starving Bill Gates in an anti MS piracy ad?
