Yes, we need to backwards see more of shipping with shipping with a DVD burner and shipping with backwards compatibility. But shipping the backwards compatibility may hinder a shipping.
Looks like his server was made out of wood. Too bad his server's wood because I think we just set it on fire. In Soviet Russia, veneer knows YOU! Despite being "EXOTIC WOOD," none of the pics are NSFW. Yes, apparently computer cases are capable of getting wood. No, he box is not called "Woody"; he does, however run Debian Woody. Yes, he did get high off of the finish while working on the project.
The thing I don't get is why people do these competitions. As far as I've seen, people can easily estimate the amount of time necessary to produce a collision in any algorithm (obtaining an actual result seems like a waste of time to me).
That and they're only finding collisions. Collisions are next to useless unless you want somebody to accidentally download a file with seemingly random bits instead of something they wanted. (That's just one example, but collisions are not very useful a good 99.99999999% of the time).
Ah, yes. The "we're not evil" label. I forgot about them. Unfortunately, they just look like a bunch of poorly made trance albums (I've only looked at a small amount of music from there). Besides, no rap. where is the rap?
Still, the vast majority of independents are demanding $15 (see CDBaby). Magnatune is the exception to the rule as far as I know.
Of course, since she presumably doesn't use the Internet (I'm basing this on her lack of knowledge of said Internet), someone could just tell her that it's been removed from the Web completely and she'd be less angry.
My point is that something being on the Web doesn't necessarily hurt anyone involved in it (though it most certainly can).
Artists usually want their music to be heard and aren't so concerned about people copying their stuff. Businessmen (a lot of whom are "musicians" and on big label CDs) just want their money.
Since the former doesn't care and I don't want to support the latter, I see no reason to pay.
I don't see how independents are supposed to be the music industry's saviors. They charge just as much (usualy more, in my experience) for their albums and never drop their prices.
The loss in production quality of a lot of independent artists is enough to justify not wasting $15 on their music. If they'd drop their prices, I'd certainly buy independent, but everybody seems to want to get rich off of music.
So why do independent CDs cost $14-18? Seriously, I might be willing to buy them if they were in the $4-7 range. If their prices were that much lower, I could see them making gains against the current RIAA regime. I mean, a lot of RIAA CDs can be had at Best Buy, et al for around $9-10.
Yeah, South Milwaukee. The bad thing is that neither tied candidate wants to have to live there, but people were doing write-ins just to spite people they didn't like.
My guess would be a lot. I prefer to not have to run file on something to determine it's type, although in the end, whatever application I'm using usually recognizes files by their magic numbers anyway.
What kind of OS X user would be caught dead using such ancient, PC-originated technology (and I use that term loosely) as an MP3?
It's bad enough that they'll be shunned by all their iPod-wearing, dual-CPU-owning, Mac cabal member friends, but now their computer get pwned? Talk about kicking them while they're down.
No kidding. This is probably some secret attempt to create a reality show based on office politics. Or Candid Camera, perhaps? Maybe a Klondike Bar commercial?
I guess my point is that you can never have too much stock footage of people acting like retards in everyday situations.
Wow, you're either a troll or an idiot. Some people can't afford Windows, so they install Linux. Seems pretty pointful to me.
(For the record, I think the post was a joke, in which case, my subliminal insult is directed at the moron who modded the parent "Interesting" instead of "Funny")
Sounds like a troll, but "make xconfig" has always used QT. "make menuconfig" on the other hand, uses nothing more than your non-proprietary curses implementation.
I personally don't use xconfig since it uses QT (IMHO, an annoying toolkit).

No calls.

But how much does it cost?
I don't particularly care. I just know when I get a brand new one with gigabit ethernet and RAID, it'll be a steal. Wink, wink.

Yeah, they should have put it up in Real Video format so no one would want to watch (thus satisfying the guy's mother).

I think this post has considerably more Interesting and Insightful aspects that Troll ones.
Whoever modded this Troll has some 'splainin' to do.

You do realize that it's easy for spammers to forge the From address, right? So you might be spamming innocents.

Not seroius and not a troll. A little of both, actually; I like to call it "humor."
Let's see, .tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .png, .jpeg, .sh

Have fun eating your words when they release a Rodney King-style home video of the developers getting beaten by MS's hired goons.

Kool-Aid Man: OH YEAH!!
Just like how they monitor your cell phone conversations and send you ads based on that?
I think encrypting the wireless signal would be pretty simple. Otherwise, don't wear it.
Really, I think we've all heard these arguments before. Any new pro-P2P developments?

No, really, that was funny. I'm just a fan of crazy subject lines.
