The linux tulip NIC drivers had some fast switching support, at least as of a couple versions ago. I never looked into it too deep; because 128port+ Xylan omniswitch boxes are $100 or less on ebay; and even with my budget constraints that just blows anything pc based right out of consideration.
I'd like to throw the bad CCD issue in for consideration. I finally got an honest refund for my dead camera, after ~6hr on the phone to sony, being told i would have to pay for a repair twice; and finally being told a repair was impossible after a couple month's delay. Yeah, they could've handled it worse, but they damn sure could've handled it better, too.
Sony has always been an industry pioneer. they're just currently the market leader in slime, evil, greed, and lame.
I'm just switching to flac (maybe), from wav, for my pitiful 50gb music collection. One reason: ReplayGain volume normailizing. I havent normalized the.wavs because i still want the ability to burn real copies of the cds for the car. I'll find out this weekend if the normailizing flac gives me distorts the sound enough to bug me.
Yes, i have hypersensitive ears. MP3 fuzz makes me psychotic in seconds.
I once had to cut the inner bearing race off a car's wheel spindle. They'd become welded together essentially (dont drive 50mph with a broken wheel bearing). $10 of fiberglass cutting wheels and the dremmel saved me buying a $300 part because a $5 part was stuck to it.
look at win32 webcam apps. you're lucky to find any that arent lightly to mildly hacked at versions of Dorgem with spyware / adware / trojans du jour tacked on.
Not all of those switches are necessary and ive left out other that might be needed. but thats what man pages and experimentation are for. Mjpegtools, though not particularly easy to use, is capable of making finely tuned and broadly portable video.
Either transcode or mencoder might be easier or better for you; look at them too.
Just because you and i have found the True Path of computing in GNU, we are not obligated to lead others to it by reason, bribery, or fire and sword. Sometimes its tempting, true.
I think im about to try this on an apc smartups 750 thats behaving badly with 50%+ loads anyway. The little bits of electron pusher knowledge i cling to in a ritualistic, voodoo like sense lead me to beleive it'll work. If it doesnt put "he was wrong" on a tombstone over the smoking crater.
dunno about pines, particularly, but i can speak to hickory trees being favored targets over oaks, polars, etc. Hickory trees have long, straight taproots, and a dense wet wood: they get blasted even when there's taller, non-hickory trees nearby.
"were required to be digital"... and frequency hopping.
So what you're saying is that, instead of having ubiquitous, $5 walky talkie type handheld radios, wireless communication should be restricted to those able to afford hundreds or thousands of dollars of delicate, cutting edge technology.
The BusyBox Hall of Shame lists this device as one of several that is violating the GPL in using BusyBox, and presumably other packages too. Anyone know if Hauppauge is actually doing anything about it?
the penalties are for misrepresenting the mileage to a buyer. its your car; you can rip the odometer out and burn it; just dont try to sell it as having low mileage because of that.
if i have to re-educate my users to be aware of security, i may as well re-educate them to a better thought out environment.
To extend the lock metaphor well beyond any rationality: i'll teach them to use keys instead of a "dance and sing" ritual... "you have to log in as root to do this and that" instead of "you have to right click and selct this, unless its september or a full moon when you have to double click here and then do this that and this other step; except for full moons during september when you have to sacrifice a blue goat at 11:13pm PST using a 14 inch Stihl chainsaw".
... where is the live hologram technology we were promised in those "world of tomorrow" cartoons? this thing needs to be skinable. it should look like that hot pink chick in "shrek", dammit.

(from the OpenSSH History page)
I have to wonder how long it will be before the commercial SSH folks are talking to apple and sun and so on about really cheap bulk licenses.
It was a great resource, and will continue to be valuable for historic perspective. I really wish i'd been able to send him some money...
yer blog link is dead, dude

There's an easy enough workaround for that.
Yup. Your tax dollars at work/a>. They also have the data in an online browser based "find your locality" thingy, as i recall, but i cant be bothered to track that down at the moment.
In sum, all hail the dremmel.

the basic command was be something like:

hmm. can't speak to those; appreciate the testimonial. I'm going to be hoarding up to g450's to ensure i never run out, like with model m keyboards.
Go load up on the matrox 4in1 G200s. Complete, open software support for the best 2d display hardware commonly available

harris semiconductor had 25mhz 286en. as i recall, intels topped out at 16mhz and amd's at 20mhz.
its not a simulation of real (street legal) cars, but its an excellent sim that includes many of the things you have to deal with in real cars.
