the stuff works well, ieeradicator works nicely, sped up my small gaming box noticeably by removing major IE components.
I havent tried the rest yet, but that suff will give you some speed as well, add the programs in the article to the mix and you can make your friends piss their pants.
so far my experience with syllable has left a bitter taste in my mouth, not only did it lock up on startup, but left my machine hanging. (power button didnt even respond!)
of course maybe that was only a problem with the machine's hardware, or compatibility with it.. but still, even linux doesnt do that, nor does beOS or bsd or anything else I've tried..
I'd give it several more releases before trying it.
given telstra's record of how it treats its customers, and the fact it's the monopoly phone system in australia, my friends in australia have given me plenty of horror stories related to telstra and its "Fuck the customer" attitude.
and it isnt a shock they'd use a cheap tactic to get something cheaper.
will this make the MPAA create new bills against those who buy projectors, requiring you to have a license, or just outright banning them to the public?
here's the scary thought besides the obvious "OMG GOVERNMENT CONTROL" scenario
if the computer system were to suddenly fuck up, a miscaculation or a power outage... there'd be wrecks like insanity, and the drivers' fate would be sealed, as they would have no control over their vehicle to get in a position that wont harm them, or veer out of the way, or whatever.
I'm not annoying, nope not me, nope never no I'm never annoying, see? I'm not annoying, god dammit I said I'm not annoying! hey hey look at me! look what I'm doing! why arent you listening to me! god damn I'm telling you I'm not annoying! LOOK LOOK! why arent you looking?! come on! loook! I'm nooot annnoooooyyyiiing!
Thanks NASA, now you've thrown us 20 years behind again! not to mention you're now ending shuttle flights, of course the other Nations are happy with this decision, it means less US involvement in a space program they can evolve and take credit for.
Why dont we also stop sending probes out as well, since those are *SUCH* a waste of money as well NASA?
at this rate we might as well just go back to staring at stars through little $600 ground based telescopes. The only good telescope we have is going to be scrapped, even though it's still highly useful. when the James Webb gets launched, I'm gonna laugh when it fails.
Turner might not be saying this from a "sore former media conglomerate" But from a economist point of view, he might have owned a lot of things, but I dont recall him being anti-competitive. (correct me if I'm wrong) See, when he was in power, he had a chunk of stations and media, but he wasnt just the only one, others existed as well, and startups could starup when he was running the show.
Now, if you want to be a startup, ClearChannel will knock your ass off the planet, either by lawsuits, buyouts, or forcing you out in illegal ways (if you're a radio station, they'll get some useless station to overpower yours to where you can only broadcast for a few hundred yards.) His qualm is ClearChannel, which owns just about everything in the media, they're the only ones. them and one or two others. I think that's the point he's getting, it's not a competitive market anymore, it's now a shaped, controlled monopolistic market with no separate identities or companies. just one huge monster, and the consumer or the little guy has no say in what they do, and they can also use their great power to push propaganda the way they want it, at least in Turner's reign, it was all separated still.
This has to be one of the most useless apps I've seen.
first, it only works for lindows, you can get the source, but without some serious issues (I had to hack my makefile, and no prevail)
no documentation whatsoever, so you gotta guess the deps.
you could go with gaim-vv rather than this. this is just a waste, it cant connect to any other sip networks except the one run by lindows, and it can only communicate with other phonegaim clients, and it costs money to call a landline, not to mention the rates high for VOIP. The last comment in the article should be edited out because the GAIM devels have zero involvement with this.
just dont bother with this, it's overhyped, only reason it's getting media coverage is because a company is behind the new features. gaim-vv is much better IMHO.
bottom line, phonegaim is a cruddy hack. dont bother with it.
Slashdot Mirror
image bombs. basically, you create a 190000x190000 pixel monochrome image, save it, and it compresses to 43 kb
anyone opens it... *BAM* it expands into 2gb of ram.

of people sniping down bugs in their backyards or catching them?
be funny of someone sent a box filled with dead beetles to mozilla.

if you get knocked out, and they check your pulse thinking you're dead, how can they be sure?
unless they check for a breath.
Today near the Motorola Testing Facility, birds and other wildlife suddenly spontaniously combusted....
Those books hurt when thrown through bookstore windows, one hit my head :(
They're quite potent when they hit anything, bookstores, lamps, craniums, etc.
Matrix styled cyber sex.
oh baby!
We dont want to publish anything that will get us sued by dumbasses.
this should only be used for those in rehab.

I think the question is
How come every time anyone does something incredibly evil, utah is involved?
this topic is EXACTLY the same as a topic posted around a week ago, in fact, the same wording, hell, I still have the links in history.
unless it got accidently accepted twice, or taco wanted to put a fancy new title on it, I think someone didnt read back at older articles.
SCO is gonna claim that linux stole the idea for the command line?
by allowing access to the # sign.
since that article about the scammers getting scammed themselves happened, now they're sending out scams about killing people.. someone's upset.. aww.
"Dear Assassinator,
did you ever notice that that to be an assassin, you have to have two asses?"
I did some gaming with god... then he struck me with a bolt of lightning :(
