I'm sick of Americans complaining about being behind. In australia the standard internet conenction is 512kb/s. The advertised plans have download limits of 200 meg. There is no such thing as "unlimited" in Australian Technology. Stop complaining, you are tonnes better than us.
With enough momentum we might be able to pull an adobe
Thats genius. ADOBE! Why can't they create an editable document format. And make it open. This would mean adobe would be able to control a format without actually having to make an office suite. Adobe is the answer. They could take this over so easily.
For programs like freehand, fireworks and indesign! Such a same. All great programs, but they don't stand a chance now that they have merged with illustrator dreamweaver and such.
Less choice is always bad!
B) Choose an obviously ridiculous option
If you do this then you should obviously vote D
C) Do not answer, and complain that your preferred option was unavailable.
Who would vote for this! Bit hypocritical? (same applied for D
Filesharing Would be awesome at this lan. I would go just for that. Also, LANS offer shorter pings so that nobody has an advantage on different servers. It also helps teams look at eachothers strats right in front of them.
Most of all it turns an online community into a real community. Where people talk and interact. For computer nerds this is an important thing to do every so often.
The speech pattern is sent to a computerised voice generator that recreates the speaker's words.
Would you want to talk to microsoft sam? I can see this being used for speech to text conversions, but will it be possible to recreate tone, emotion? Why would you want to emulate this in a social situation anyway?
I have long given up my hopes that google will be a "nice" corporation. They have prooven over the last few months that profit is #1, like any other corporation. Like any other corporation: they should not be trusted.
Looks like the Free/Open Source Software movement is very close to closing up one of the most noticeable software gaps remaining from its glorious efforts."
That is until MSN 7 includes a new codec or in other ways blocks this implementation
The Australian film authority refuses to classify games that it would give an "r" rating. So games like theif, gta etc are not released until the game maker promises to edit out the dirty bits. Thief is still banned here, but I think amongst other things Rockstar took the hookers out of gta3 and vc.
It might seem like a horrible thing: but it doesn't really matter. I had the American "uncut" version of gta3 when i was 13! It isn't censorship, It's giving control to parents.
Because unpatched windows machines are bad for the internet. Viruses spread faster on unpatched machines, it is therefore microsoft's duty to make the internet safer for its paying customers by making sure all windows machines are as safe as they can be.
Well.. thats the theory anyway. Security for its paying customers has always come second to profits for Microsoft, so this is no surprise
A perfectly situated "I'm feeling lucky" to the torrent would mean that direct video is irrelevant.
Also, interesting that you can read 3 pages of a book searched by google, yet the ip implications of putting video on would make it nearly impossible.
If they had communications from the disaster, why did it take the international community a week to react. Why did Australia just start sending its ships? Why did the USA helicopters just arrive in Sri Lanka today?
It seems to me the response to this disaster by governments has been more about public opinion than the welfare of the people involved
is that it's people like these that caused so many problems for our friends at Valve
If valve want to continue with this steam activation shit on an online game, they can go fuck themselves. Good on the crackers for pissing off that excuse for a deceloper.
Here i was thinking the new york times would go out of print before they got this thing through! Perfect, this will come just in time for the pre christmas, holiday rush where nobody reads newspapers.
No one can beat ea, production costs are just too high now and without big contracts a game developers future is finite.
On the bright side though, i for one welcome our sweatshop overloads:)
I hate to break your "They can't stop me i pay cash" party, but i think the idea of these serial numbers is so that if the police suspect someone and have evidence to get a warrant tehy can use printer data to secure a conviction.
For a regular lan gamer, i think that lcd is the only way to go. with response time getting down to 8ms there really is no excuse to carry that 100kg monstrocity around with you to a lan. I play on a 152x, and it is fine, I don't see any ghosting on a 25ms screen. If people say they can, i think it is just a placebo.
mod parent down for a ridiculous mis-quoting of Albert Eintein.

I thought Enistein said that his greatest hope was that he would be prooven wrong on his theories?
There is never going to be one right answer, Newton and Eintein did great jobs

In my mind firefox will always be better software until it renders slashdot correctly!

It depends, how much bandwidth?
