Anyhow, the DS pics show the microphone (built in) is just under the bottom screen, close to the directional pad. Speakers are next to the top screen.
Yes, you will need a headset.
The DS is shaping up to be pretty rocking. I'm waiting for some word on possible web browsers / IM clients, which would rock pretty hard. Will it run Linux?
God knows how many hours we wasted in computer tech on nanosaur when my Jr. High got a shipment of orange iMacs. Until the teacher wised up and deleted the game on every computer.
Yeah, it's kind of old, but I loved that game in Jr. High, and I'm glad to see it's still around. It even has split screen multiplayer! Rocking good mac game, Nanosaur.
Nintendo has said that the DS is intended as a 3rd platform for the company, and they plan to actively devlop for GBA for a while yet. Also, the DS is confirmed to be backwards compatable with GBA games, so people who splurge on a DS can get the presumably cheaper GBA games. The DS is shaping up to be pretty cool, and I most likely will replace my original GBA with it as a christmas present (either from someone, or to myself... Why couldn't I have rich grandparents like everyone else.) Anyhow, this is an attempt to split the market into two groups, with different game prices for each group.
RNC = Republican National Convention. They will offically choose George W. Bush as canidate for president, give speechs on national television, and try to encourage people to vote for their canidates. It's all cermonial, for the most part. Both Democrats and Republicans knew the major nomations well beforehand. Lots of people on the internet feel lots of hatred towards the republican party in general, (It's a miracle no one has tried to kill Bush) so they've posted all the people who get to attend the convention.
Bittorrent is your friend. It's as common as AIM or IRC these days, instead of pulling the whole file from a central server, only the first few need to use a server host, and everyone else shares with each other. Most big linux distros do it with 650 MB files, or for large video files. No reason it wouldn't work for you.
Here, I'll even link you to a good client that will give you a nice GUI for starting out. Another Bittorent Client for all OSes.
There's only minor technical details available so far, but the author of this piece describes seeing the system allow the test vehicle to jump over obstacles in it's path!"
Does it come with concealed machine guns, oil slicks, and bulletproof glass?
While I realize that the majority of the/. crowd is from the UNIX world, I also realize that it would be more professional to replace the broken window graphic with something more appropriate.

Longhorn is going to include some exciting new technologies such as Avalon, WinFS, Indigo, and most importantly their new Monad (you really must research this, as it could do for Longhorn what BASIC did for Microsoft's first operating systems). While these are just codenames for abstract ideas (and possibly just buzzwords) it will certainly be exciting to see some of these things deployed.
And when this wonderful new OS is released, free of bugs, wonderful, and secure, only then will icon change debate be real.
Besides, they just anounced the cut of many features today, what's to stop your precious Avalon and Inigo being left on the cutting room floor before the release. I've heard the same hype "This version is secure, honest" several times now, and I don't believe now more than for ME or 2000 or XP. Until a released version isn't broken, I say we keep the shattered panes of glass.
Not when Bush is so hated amongst youth. I'm about a month too young to vote this year, but you can bet I'll get everyone I know who is 18 voting for Kerry. Unless Bush pulls some WMD out of thin air, I can imagine some upset kiddies finally voting.
yeah. Not myself, but a friend who runs her (yes, her) own website. She recently was complaining about test ssh's, and the fact she would get a daily email about them.
Being a good friend, I did the only sensible thing and tryed to ssh as test with the password roughly "Could you please make a test account, it would make this much easier -focitrixilous P"
I doubt they would get enough computers this way to get enough power for a nation wide DoS, but what do I know?
His prediction of the death of Word is meaningless. It's carries about the same weight as the claims that BSD is dying (as comfirmed by Netcraft).
Yeah, but the common man doesn't know what Netcraft even is. Time magazine has way more clout to a lot of people, and a few "early adopters" of the Time world will give it a try. Any non-lawsuit-related press OSS gets is good press, even if just saying it won't make it come true.
Write only swap, eh? I suppose it could user reiser 4, at least.
I can see a new ad campaign aimed at PHBs
are you overwriting precious swap files without even knowing it? 'Write once read many' swap spaces ensures you'll never lose swap to a power failure again!
Fanatics who don't want to RTFM are welcomed to mod me down.
First, it's RTFA in the context you mean it. See AC post above mine, but most people read at at least 1 so I'll steal his point.
It's the start of a slippery slope, where you may eventually you need DRMeyes to watch media. And don't taunt the mods. They will kill you. Or at least mark you flamebait.
But it annoys me that Knoppix follows the Debian "stable" ideology to the letter. Yesterday KDE 3.3 is released, today Knoppix 3.6 is released including KDE 3.2.
It's pretty hard to patch a cdrom. Better to lag behind the cutting edge a little bit for security than find 3.3 has a buffer overflow and then issue 3.6.1 right after everyone has finished downloading the cds.
you'd think after so many posts, linking to http://goat.cx would be down. We are making progress!
well, maybe post number 20 million won't link to goatse.
A winner is you!
If they make it really accurate, I suppose you might be able to tell where he got sniped from. I doubt it, and by the time you've figured it out the sniper has moved or you're dead, but it might be useful.
Star Wars? Lando, Mace Windu, both were just normal people in the movie. Race isn't even mentioned. Of course, with all those aliens, a little skin coloration doens't mean much.
ALright, here is the plan. Warn your friends and family not to visit the index page for a few days, and set this html code or some varient as index.html

Hey, the domain and book aren't related, right? So why would this be bad? Surefire way to reclaim your domain, take revenge on Penguin books, and give countless children nightmares for years! This plan is flawless! I seem to recall this happening to a video game. Some posters were on the walls with unused domains, which quickly became porn domains. I'm sure this was on games.slashdot a while back, but I've sunk eenough time into this post already.

The gates of hell are creaking open. Satan is heating his pokers for you. Fall down on your knees and beg forgiveness!

quite possible. Get a linux PDA, script it up to run 'fortune' every so often, and there you go. Insight and a belt buckle, for the cost of a PDA.

Not everyone needs to be on the bleeding edge.
Somehow I think that was a joke.
And a big old 'rock on; for good measure.

Godzilla has been named an alternate, should one of the computers malfunction.
Star Wars? Lando, Mace Windu, both were just normal people in the movie. Race isn't even mentioned. Of course, with all those aliens, a little skin coloration doens't mean much.
Summaries which were funny back in 1998 but have now become cliche: 1 and rising.
If they had, we wouldn't have to deal with this letter for a couple months while they get rid of those pesky demons with a chaingun.
And if the government gets computers that can play Doom 3, why don't I?
