This doesn't mean anything. Remember, the share of ecucated users running a HTTP server is larger than the share of educated users running a Word processor or something.
He was saying that the distro I'M working on as a developer sucked, and the reason was that you could only "compress" to WAV. However, this is false, and based on his most likely stupid mistake. I called him a retard, because he was acting like one.
I have the certificates to prove this, and furthermore they're issued by the biggest software company in existence.
That proves nothing. Actually, it may speak negatively about your skills. I passed an MCSE at age 12, and I sucked at age 12. I was a huge newb who thought that hackers were bad people etc. Reading your post, so do you. Unfortunately, I doubt you have the convenient excuse of being 12.
These are hard numbers and 100% FACTS! There are several more where these came from.
Oh, boo-hoo. Not to mention, these results were all from independent Microsoft examinations.
...Reliable companies with tried and tested products, or that bedroom coder Thorwalds who publicly admits that he is in fact A HACKER???
Since WHEN has Windows been EITHER reliable or tried and tested? Microsoft is a commercial company, making commercial products, for profit - - That Bedroom Hacker made brilliant pieces of code, that have been peer-reviewed by people who are not interested in profit, but software as an art.(And Linus isn't driving a BMW Z3 for nothing!;)
Also, there are CFIDE interfaces out there. Neat ones, too. Can make a Mini-ITX completely and fully silent. My monitor makes more noise than the CPU - gotta love that!:)
2.6.5 has prism54 in vanilla - and it works like a charm, except for some bugs that may or may not be in the driver - such as not locking to a chan when it should in certain configurations, etc.
...I sat next to a guy with that thing at The Gathering... CONSTANTLY PULSATING and annoying the hell out of me, and also achieving amazing amounts of screen glare. The guy lit up the entire isle with lights.
Lindows Inc. announced the opening of a wholly owned subsidiary, named Lapple. Its flagship product, the iLMLaLc, will be released April 30th. The CEO of Lapple, Lsteve Ljobs, have been quoted as saying "We really don't understand all this fuss about ripping off names! Macintosh and Apple are both names that have seen extensive use before Apple Inc, and their claims are foundless."
I take offence to that. I am eternally grateful for what the US did during WWII. And I am disgusted by the grave vandalisation - I remember those soldiers as heroes. And I would ALWAYS show a veteran respect. After all, if it weren't for them, I'd be in a Nazi country.
But mixing this with the current War On Terror is stupid, and frankly I believe it to be disrespectful to the WWII veterans fighting an actual existing evil.
Please explain how pocket, portable computing would have been possible even ten years ago.
Allright, then, I'll share with you the delights of the HP100LX. My dad got it as a company gift (He was a Dept. Mgr. at HP Norway). It had full CGA, clamshell design, full PC compat, and it was basically one sweet machine. I still sweep eBay for them - you could connect them to the net, you could do anything. It even had PCMCIA. Ah, the memories.

The Lins and Chung could not be located at any of the addresses or telephone numbers listed in the court documents.
...all one hundred thousand of them.
This may be the first technology where yelling at a piece of broken equipment really loud makes it work?
Oh come on, you retard (here we go again)

apt-get install mplayer mencoder, retard.
Actually, on some legacy Unix systems the reply from ping isn't "64 bytes from lil-johnny (...)" but "lil-johnny is alive" or "lil-johnny is dead"! :)

Not for long.
I had to print out your post to validate your footnote :)

how the hell did you get that around the posting filter with all the caps?
Because the warranty part of the GPL IS CAPS.
Now they are nearly universal, in more than 98 percent of homes. And, increasingly, in cars.
Now Americans can combine their two favourite passtimes, polluting and watching TV!
BS - Dos 4 had 99.9% market share on clones back then.
Yeah, well, this has been reported all over the place, NYT isn't exclusive. (Not that I trust Markoff)
