That is not what the description in the article says(though it could be wrong). The article says that it puts bad blocks on the cd, standard audio cd players play rigth over them, but a computer will think the cd is very very scratched and unplayable, or at least that is what they hope. If your description of the system is correct it could be described as having a monkey do the redbook mastering.
um, actually there is, at least in the USA there is, Title 17, chapter 1, section 107, "Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use". Here is a copy online http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/17/107.html.
I think you slightly misunderstood the comment, it had nothing to do with artists on MTV being crushed by lawsuits, it had to do with artists and lables filing lawsuits over things like napster and mp3.com.
exactly, with the applications it is meant for, there is no need for a video card, it is meant for embedded systems, if there is any display attatched to it, it would proably be a 4x20 char lcd attatched to the serial or paralel port.
These are usefull in things like netwokr attatched cameras, vending machines, it is not meant for use as a desktop machine, it is for embedded devices.
The cpu is a"100 MHz 32 bit RISC CPU with a peak perfor-
mance of 100MIPS." thats straight out of the data sheet.
and as for what you are saying about pricing, i can get an ethernet controller for around $1, thats not a pci card, thats a controller. I imagine they get rid of a lot of overhead by not using a pci bridge. Also, it doesnt have a video card.
a tablespoon full?!?!
I hope it wasnt pure caffiene, because when i have seen pure caffiene it is in powder form in baggies(looks like coke), and my guess would be that a table spoon full would be about 10 grams, enough to kill some poeple.
OTOH, if you like that but want something milder, try adding 2 shotss of espresso to 10 - 15 oz. jolt, and chug it. I was told the carbination in the jolt causes the caffeine and something else in the espresso to be ingested into you body faster. We uasualy refer to this as joffee.
yes, it veyr much is is possible, redhat does(or at least did with 6.2) provide RPMs or gnome, and not just the ximian ones. But even still it is a large number of RPMs. Why so many RPMs you ask, because there are a lot of sperate components, and you may not want want all the compontents, for instance, i dont want gmc, or gdm installed, and if it were just one package, i would have to install those. With many seperate packages it makes it so you only install what you want, the problem with that is that if you don't knwo what components you want(which im guessing by your desription is true in your case), it makes it more difficult, so you should proably just nmake it easy on yourself and install them all, and remove any that you later find you dont want. The other solution is to build from source. The source is available on gnome.org. But i would recomend that unless you have a strong reason not to, use the ximian packages as they have gone through more QA than most of the distro packages. oh, and just as a note i am using non-ximian gnome-1.4 packages that are a part of debain GNU/linux(http://www.debian.org).
remember dsl is "the consumer internet" it is designed forpeople who are non-technical, the most advanced thing they know how to do is look at porn. maybe with a buisness dsl you might be able to get mcast support, but for buisiness dsl is is 2x the price.
i use 2 diferent prompts, one for normal use, and one for a little 4x80 transparent Eterm i keep in the bottom right of my screen. The one for normal use is boring, its just [user@host pwd]$
the one for the eterm is not really a multiline prompt, it only has text on one line, but i tends in \n,m so here it is:
#!/bin/bash
blue='\[\033[0;34m\]'
red='\[\033[0;31m\]'
original='\[\033[00m\]'
PS1="\
$blue($red\u$blue@$red\h$blue)\
$red-\
$blue($red\t$blue)\
$red-\
$blue($red\w$blue)\
$original\n"
that produces something like (r00t@fluffy)-(10:33:15)-(~)
and yes, my username is r00t and my machine name is fluffy.
im not sure if it is still true, but for a while the scans all originated from authorizedscan.security.home.com.
the purpose of them is to see if you are violating the AUP by running a serer.
One of the big free hosting site(i think it was xoom.com) did exactly what you are suggesting, lot of people started to use them just for image hosting, that cost them money for bandwidth, but they didnt get any revenues for ad views. So when the http refer was not from there domain name, you got there logo, instead of the image you wanted.
In some areas yes, the most visible Hams are the old ones, but there are lots of others.
SO exactly how many transistors did you use to build your PC. When i ham talks of building a radio, they arent putting premade cards in a box, they are soldering things onto boards, winding coil, that sort of thing. That last part was a mistake on my part. So lets pretend i said 300ghz.
not all hams are old or fat. Some are, and the ones who people notice frequently are, they are the ones who are at club meets all the time, and have 60 antenna on the roof of the car. But there are also alot of hams who are neither old, nor fat. Ask your friends, i'll bet at least one of them is a ham. About the bleeding edge of tech stuff you mention, it might not all be bleeding edge, but i'll bet you didnt build your own pc. ANd some stuff is pretty bleeding edge, try telling the guys running data over 30ghz links with hardware that they built themselves that what they are doing is not bleeding edge. Also, not all hams are guys, i know at least one of the biger 10 meter stations on the west coast was being opperated by a female this weekend.
24 hour is a long stretch, but in an emergency... anyways, yeah, i only 18 hours, could have made it the full 24 if i started working as soon as i got up, not spent several hours setting up.
for a long time intel had a "minister of algorithms".
i recently saw "Web Master", but that wasn't a joke, the boss just thought it was supposed to have a space. I also saw "Porn King" recently.
Some of the funniest ones i have seen were at trade shows things like "code monkey" and "marketing weasle".
some of the ones i have used include "master of all time & space", "Social Engineer" and "Big Cheese". The social engineer one was the funest to have, once after convincing a marketoid at a booth to give me a t-shirt, he asked me what i social engineer was, i said "I convince people like you to give me things like this" and held up the shirt.

from what i could tell by looking at the site, they are not just marketed towards the natives, they seem to be amrketed towards missionaries.

don't be hating on the top hat, the king of hats.
to bad that doesnt set the prompt.

they need a book from a series that has been joked about for years, TCP/IP for complete and utter morons!
This is not a reasonably unbiased forum, this is slashdot.
os7, and i think 6(not sure though) did the exact same thing with icons.

I dont know about you, but i rarely get calls trying to get me to buy a new PBX.
He's talking about ssh, open BSD didnt remimplement ssh, they improved upon it.

a few nickels? last time i played DDR it cost me something like $1.50 USD per game.
