nothing i said, nor the article, nor the slashdot title implies there is only 1 african language. My suggestion stands for any language just copy the statement N times and start replacing with each instance of the group "african languages"
I didn't see how african-american stereotypes would have been implied by my use of the word african in a story about african languages lack of wikipedia articles.
And as far as what I meant by relevency to africans. There are many articles in the english wikipedia that are very US, UK, Canada, and/or Australian specific. For instance US supreme court decisions would not be a good candidate for translation since they aren't relevent to Africa, even if the articles are well written. However a good article for translation might be say, democracy since this article would be much more general and very applicable to African countries.
Why not pick out some important articles, or high quality articles from the other languages, taking into account relevency to africans, just trnaslate them over as seed material.
2 and 3 have pretty much been done on a limited scale. computer vision has come a longe way. I'm not sure how well the solutions scale with the numbe rof objects the system knows how to recognise though.
I dont see why I was modded troll, I have no hate for Debian nor love for microsoft. It is simply a funny news story. Does anyone know if the exploit already had a patch? And how long ago was the patch released? And what is Debians excuse for not patching?
Microsoft has $0 Debt so their credit rating wouldn't matter. Typically when your credit rating goes down you have to increase the interest you pay on your debt so that it will sitll be an attractive investment to otehr people risk vs reward type stuff
Have you tried selling locally through craigslist? I dont run a business but I have been very pleased wiht selling old junk on craigslist vs ebay. no fees and no shipping!
While I agree that we should encourage better writing I thought it was stupid to freak out about it.
By the way, the Supreme Court doesn't examine facts. Fact finding is done in the original court that heard the case. Well, I guess in the small percentage of cases where they are the court of original jurisdiction they look at facts, but in msot of their cases they only look at the law. No wonder you believe the Supreme Court will someday be filled with justices who (should that be who or whom? oh no! fucking blow me, i dont care) would ask such a rediculous (spelling mistake? go blow a donkey) question.
Guess what, English is a natural language and, by definition, is changing constantly. a lot -> alot is a common mistake, and it is a rather old mistake, it has been around for the full 22 years I have been onthe planet. If you want to be proficient in english you must be able to parse incorect grammar and spelling because the majority of written english, on the internet expecially, contains atleast some errors.
I dont run a business on ebay, but I collect computer junk from friends and relatives, and buy things when I seem them for free or near free with rebates (Black Friday). I used to use ebay to get rid of the old stuff , stuff I replaced, or stuff that I bought and never used. Always made a profit, but it was such a pain. Then I found craigslist. I simply look up the avg selling price on ebay, and price accordingly on craigslist. Almost everything I have put up sold in 2 weeks, the rest took a few more weeks. No fees, free pictures, NO SHIPPING since its all local.
I dont think I will ever use ebay to sell something again. It's just too much trouble for all the fees and shipping costs.
actually the O2 went into the ground for respiration of allt he microbes decomposing the organic matter in the soil. What was strange is that there was no rise in CO2 to match the drop in O2. Turns out the CO2 was absorbed into the concrete makeing something like calcium carbonate.
wtf? did you just say that tech companies should cure HIV instead of giving jobs to Africans??
Thats some fucked up logic. Jobs to Africa would do more to turn around the HIV infection rate than any medical R&D. Richer population = higher educated = condom use. With he side beenfit of having a RICHER POPULATION!!!
I always thought those "major brand" gas stations were shady. I live on riverside. You say they sell biodiesel, but do they sell ethanol? E10 or anything close?
Time warner's road runner service for 30 a month for first 6 months (i just cancel and resign up every 6 months) i get 5mbps speed up and about 40-60 KB/s upload.

I didnt mean to imply there was only one african language.
Thank you for the defense.

She's hot, and she has a brain! amazing.
I wish I had 20 million to go to space with her, and be the first to have sex in space too!
Oh well... a guy can dream right?

the 3d stuff has been done pretty well though.
cryptology is just math, and they need you to break it.

Oh im not sure. I'm on a windows machine.
I love it. An operating system distribution was rooted due to a vulnerability in the OS.

Say what you want about microsoft, but I dont think they have ever had their asses handed to them by hackers.
Of course your rebuttal might be tht they are too busy rooting everyone elses boxes at home.
I love it, in other news, Peter Coors of Coors the brewery, and 2004 Senate candidate was arrested for drunk driving.
The day gets better and better!

I have all of those features in firefox right now.... true I used an extension to get session saving but the other 2 come standard.

It shouldn't. You obviously understood what he meant so the communication was successful. You might want to go see a shrink.

Hopefully that would use exactly ZERO FLOPS given that only the integer unit would be used and no floating point calculations would be made :-p

I guess thats close to what you said...

lol I guess I wasn't thinking correctly. I meant hard drive :-p
I think a lot of that ram is the incoming data waiting to be written to the cpu and outgoing data held in memory to be sent out to others...
But what do I know.
Also might just be java swing being bloated, I think azureus has a command line version, ive never tried it though....
