Seemingly every mirror has slowed to a crawl & I've already downloaded the first CD so don't want to waste another 650mb on BT, any mirrors still fast?
Remote control cars are normally raced using sticks of 1.2v 3300mah or 2500mah of the NiMH variety between 7.2v and 9.6v. Problem I guess is the cells are about 2x the size of a AA. so it'd be harder to transport.
But it will still be dragged through the courts, and that will take time - look at how long the DeCSS case took to get a ruling. In the mean time something that is potentially useful is looked upon as evil.
Mozilla Firebird still supports Gopher as well.
This could be useful with mobile devices - the formatting is done completely client side, and with no overhead its perfectly suited to mobile clients.
Ironically smoking helps with this; forces you to get away from the computer for 5-10 mins once in a while, so I go outside, walk around a bit and have a smoke.
Thats all good and well, when the FPS is steady, but in pratice, it never is - having a framerate higher than the monitor can display is good so when you move into a more complex scene the framerate doesn't drop below the refresh rate, allowing the game to still look nice and smooth.
That, and I would love to see a card that will give me GTA3 4xFSAA, 8x anisotropic filtering at 1600*1200 and keep an average framerate above 85fps.
Big fuss over possible implications when a commerical release is made, but when someone in the opensource community does the same thing and licences under GPL, are these comments not still valid? Contradicts the current opinion expressed here.
I'm 16 as well, and in my opinion I'm given a lot of freedom - not only with computer access, but most parts of life. I don't have computer literate parents, I maintain the server/workstation they use, and have my computer in my room, but they do care about what I'm doing, and I feel I can talk to them about anything.
I was subjected to alcohol at a young (11-12) age, it hasn't put me off drinking, and I have been drunk a couple times in recent months, but its not an addiction. I smoke, but my parents played no role in that, and I have smoked pot before - my parents again played no role in that, but once they found out, they don't discourage it -- or encourage it, for the simple reason of, its not addictive/fatal, and they'd rather I had fun smoking that than anything more extreme. The same is true of smoking; they know I smoke, they don't approve so I tend not to smoke around them (Even though my dads also a smoker), and I think I lost the point here, but trust is the key - I have the freedom to try out things, I'm studying IT at college (I even jumped my last year of school to start studying IT (I live in UK)), and this makes me feel like I have the responsibility for my actions, which is entirely true.
Another topic that was heavily discussed in this thread as well was porn - my parents are fully aware I view porn, and have no objections what so ever - to the point of encouraging it, which I believe is the right thing to do.
I recommend a Nokia 6000 series, not the best, or most feature packed - but I started using a 6210, and am now using a 6310i. It has bluetooth & GPRS, so you can use it as a router for a PDA to do the ssh'ing and such. Most reliable series of phones I've ever used.

Is this bigger than the series of flares last year, which caused some (mostly unnoticed) trouble with satellites?
I believe he ment native port, given the work on qt-x11-free porting to win32 recently, its possible.

Yes, but my point was they still had a damn good go at outlawing it. Why would it be any different this time?
Ok, my bad - didn't know C# could be so simple, looked like python at first glance.
Wait for the lawyers to hear about this one, they're going to have a field day..
Also, what sort of DRM does it remove? AAC? "Trusted Computing"?
Does this mean PHP will compile as 64bit code now?
"Fixed bug #27717 (Test Failures when compiled on 64-bit mode)"
Fuck you old man, it got modded up so obviously someone found it useful.
32.19 GBP, but the article says its actually $57.50 milllion, which translates to 32,196,838.89 GBP.
I think the submitter meant $57.5 milllion .

Come now, its not all bad - screw-ups like this keep me in the job ;)
SCO joined UL before the lawsuits began.
Whoa, you managed to have a comment with a link to goatse modded up as funny!

As usual, a pair of socks, but not just any socks, a pair with a message, "D'oh, another pair of socks".
Wish people would think about what they're buying. I got part 2 of a book series I don't have part 1 to as well, great fun.
They are a convicted monopoly.
Just noone seems to dare do more than slap them on the wrists.
Not if my friend, but when..

Aren't you forgetting SiS? I've got 2 systems here both using SiS 730(s) chipsets, never had a problem with them.
