I don't know, but whenever I save a document as HTML in Word (as seldom as possible, OpenOffice does a much cleaner job) there are all sorts of crazy tags floating around it. For example, if I refer to Greece, it will end up with something like <o:place>Greece</o>. I've also seen similar junk surround tags. This MSDN blog seems to have the dirt on it. I figure they'll try to build relationship data from that.
GFS stands for Global File System. It is a system of storing files on a computer. Specifically, it is a cluster file system
implementation. Each computer, called nodes, could share with GFS the same file system. Reads and writes are coherent and
synchronized at the file system cache level of each cluster nodes.
Well, there is the little |P "show nonprinting characters", but I don't think that goes into the level of detail you need.
What really gets me is trying to go from the average Word document to HTML. I pipe it through OpenOffice, of course, because Word's HTML output is full of junk. But even then, you end up with<i> </i>stupid <i></i>redundant tags. I say, just write your stuff in HTML and be done with it! Or maybe Tex... this WYSIWYG stuff is terrible.:)

So we give him a variety of answers, and he chooses between them. What's wrong with that?
The problem with recycled plastic is that it ends up costing more to use than regular plastic, so there's little demand, and so many municipalities require recycling, so there's an enormous supply. It's a horrible business to be in, and if even one of the wrong kinds of plastic bottle gets into your plastic resin, you can ruin an entire batch. If the price of oil skyrocketed, things would be different, but as it is some municipalities sneak their plastic recyclables into landfills, just to save money.
I'd just like them to try a different kind of "open source" than one where they reserve the right to take your work, change it to break its compatibility with the original, and then sell it to the world.
Don't forget, there's probably a clause in the license which lets them sue you if you ever look at their source and then go on to build something with similar functionality. Nice "open-source" license you got there, pal.
I remember fixing bugs in QBasic Nibbles. There were two notable ones, as I recall: First, if you hit Pause, and your target number was located in the same part of the screen where the Pause box showed up, it wasn't redrawn and basically turned invisible. Second was a UI tweak/bug: they turned off Number Lock, but not until all the screens asking you for... numbers. =b
This is hearsay, mind you (think I found it in the manual for Gentoo at some point, comparing filesystems), but I hear that XFS isn't too good for ordinary computers' filesystems, because it "agressivele caches data in memory", which means that in the event of a system power failure or other crash, you lose a LOT. You apparently should have a good UPS with it.

Actually, SuSE was very good to me. It detected my modem. My modem is an integrated laptop job. I was shocked and amazed.:)
But then I went back to Fedora, because my school's computer science program throws around a few many RPMs and the like. Besides, I couldn't be bothered to figure out how to get the compiler in SuSE. =b
From what I gather goes on in America's Army, not everyone DOES get a sniper-rifle, and there's a significant amount of training you need to work at in order to get your account in order. It's not quite drop-and-give-me-20, but it's not Doom or Half-Life, either.
My biggest issue with Thunderbird is the bounce messages. A fair amount of people forge addresses which bounce to me (I'll be putting up SPF Real Soon Now, but that doesn't even mean everyone will read it). As a result, I get some legit bounce messages and some with spam in 'em. If I mark the ones with spam as Junk, I risk throwing away the ones without spam. If I mark the ones with spam as not-junk, I get spam which is similar to them thrown into my Inbox.

If you want to see what an Internet meltdown looks like, go try to RTFA off of the next several stories.
Eh, I think that the US is also the biggest source of computers on the Net, with more than 3 times as many as their closest competitors.
Still, at least I didn't think it was Antonin Dvorak...

Well, the Tunguska event of 1908 is a case of one of these actually hitting the planet- though I guess it doesn't qualify as a "passage".

Okay then... Goober!
Darn. Forget "rtfa", you think anyone here is actually going to LISTEN TO the fine article? Not likely.
Why not link to the article on transparent alumina as well? Though it needs a slight update, mind you.

But really- have a new algorithm that's not perfect? Work on it. More algorithms to choose for cannot mean anything but better antispam solutions.
XML is verbose, yes. That's why anyone sensible uses it as a mere file format and pipes it through gzip or something when loading and saving.
But the execution of the program which is running setuid does validate the executing user's ID against the file's permissions (chmod 750 script.sh).
If only. It's more like: /dev/urandom > /dev/uspto
