The belief that the Sun is "as average as one could get" is as conceited as believing that Earth is the center of the universe. In your case, it is just at the center of the universe of all possible star sizes.
Providers of support for the open SOURCE often commodity Samba are affected by a warning wave.
Several companies, which are entered in the Web on a list, received a writing, in which they are
requested to offer Samba no longer in the name of the company CMG to apply, to drive out or in the
trade use. Samba is a software, with itself the Unix and Linux computer as server and Clients in a
Windows network to begin leaves. The program free of charge available in the Web belongs to the
most renowned success projects in the area open SOURCE often commodity. The name SaMBa comes
from the SMB log used in Windows networks.
After information of a coworker of CMG opposite c't the warning is based on a word label within the
area of " data processing programs " (class of goods GK 9) for its own bank software ( standard log-on
reporting department banks , briefly SAMBA). A Germany width internal message concerns itself, was
called it with CMG, in order to protect the own rights. How many warnings were sent away, the
company did not want to indicate however. CMG sets the article the subject of the warning to 100.000
Marks; the assigned attorneys want to have refunded the warned company in each case from costs from
scarcely 1900 Marks to 8 August.
Volker Lendecke, one the Samba developer, let enter a picture label for the Samba Logo however in the
last year in the area " creating programs for data processing and EDP call circuits " (class of goods GK 42).
Most important target was to protect the Samba project from such warnings avowed Lendecke.
I recall reading a very similar article recently, I believe in Linux Journal. The difference was that the one I read seperated some of the more popular distributions into their own categories. It also focused more heavily on the reduction in the number of bugs reported in each version of the OS. It was then possible to study the improvement of each OS as it matured.
I wonder if Fred Moody read that article.
I can't remember exaclty what magazine this article was in, but I beleive it was Linux Journal. I can't find a URL now, and I believe I read it on paper anyway.
Does this ring a bell to anyone else? How about a URL?
I don't see it mentioned that he looked at all at the nt-bugtraq. Isn't that the NT equivalant of Bugtraq? It appears to me that he only studied the de facto standard distribution medium for one of the OSes he was researching. Seems kinda careless to me.
I can't think of a better project than writing a version of Conway's game of Life. It's not too tough to write, you can make it visually interesting, it teaches some good parts of CS, and it is fun to play with even when you're done.
Plus, can you really call yourself a programmer if you've never written a version of it?
the US post office (in conjunction with the Canadian and French equivalents) already have a program (at http://www.framed.usps.com/postecs) which will let you receive emails to your "account". I read about it at CNN (old article).
This looks like it could very well be an add-on in that if you don't want to recive your mail at their site, they will sneakernet it to you.
If these two projects are entirely unrelated, then there is a very large duplication of effort problem at hand.
Why is it that the Pentagon still gets to spend so much money on fancy new toys for a war that will now never come?
It is because they spend this money that the war will never come.
The USSR has collapsed and since the US is now sucking up to China it looks like there isn't going to be the proposed World War III
They aren't the only ones that have the bomb these days.
poor people starve on the streets and can't afford even basic health care thanks to the Randite social policies of the US, despite what their Constitution supposedly guarantees.
The Constitution does not guarantee free food or antibiotics. The Government is here primarily for national security. In other words, to protect us from other contries. Sounds like this spending is right up that alley. If you want free food, go to another country with a different type of government. (Note: You may have luck in any one of a number of countries to which the US ships free food all of the time.)
I believe that a Apex 600A DVD player will do that. It's not quite a stereo componenet, but it's a lot closer than xmms.
I just mention that model because they used to be really cheap at Circuit City (old slashdot story on this) and they have lots of really cool features (old/. story on this, too). I'm sure there's a whole pile of DVD players that are very similar.
It's my understanding that there are other colo companies in SF (or silicon valley/SJ/nearby). I'm sure exodus or someone like that will be happy to colo a box for you there.

Here is an allegedly authentic correspondence I dug up after searching around. I'm not sure what relation The Learning Company has to all of this, but this may help some people out:
Many Broderbund applications use a technology called Brodcast. Brodcast is a way that the splash screen (which is the opening screen you see for a few moments when you start a program) can be changed. DSSAgent is a small application that runs in the background and when it sees an Internet connection, it checks with our Web site to see if a new splash screen graphic is available and, if so, downloads it for you.
It does not constantly use your Internet connection.
I was a bit puzzled by this quote from the wire story: Axe is a software firm that developed a kernel called "XTAL" for the Zaurus operating system when a 32-bit processor was used in Zaurus. Until then, the Zaurus operating system was made up of a set of libraries without any kernel. How can you have an operating system without a kernel? How were those libraries used without a kernel? am I missing something here or is this a bit of a mistake in the story?
It's my understanding that before the anti-trust case started, Microsoft did not even have one full-time lobbyist in DC. That's pretty rare for a company of that size. I have heard the suggestion that the lack of money from Microsoft to DC may be one of the reasons for the anti-trust case; the politicians can't stand the fact that there is this huge company who is not contributing to them significantly (except for during campaign season). Microsoft has been strong-armed through the anti-trust case into behaving like most other large companies/industries. They now have to buy politicians off year round. Many say that this is the more significant outcome of the anti-trust case, regardless of how it turns out.
FreeNet sounds to me to be very similar to usenet. It allows you to put documents in it that are held at different nodes all connected together. you can grab documents off of it without really having to pay much attention to the particular server that they are posted on. You can post semi-anonymously to it. Your documets go away after a little while, and so on.
What are the differences between FreeNet and UseNet? How do you anticipate FreeNet will be used differently than UseNet? What makes you think FreeNet will not become as useless as Use(less)Net after the spammers and other miscreants start (mis)using it?

do you have a reference for that? I'd love to see it.
It takes you 45 minutes to do your morning drugs? You need to get a wider straw or something.

Perhaps he is referring to the 100 year period starting now ('now' referring to the time at which the post was conceived).

Please only use this while the real site is slashdotted, as I'm not responsible for the content; I just blatently copied it.
Also, if the plex86.org guys want this removed, just mail me and I'll pull it down.
