I think that the PC gaming industry has showed that self-regulation can work. It's really in the sites' best interest to let interested adults find them easily, while enabling other venues to block them.
Perhaps if there was a gradation similar to the one used by the ESRB, different locales with their different mores could set different thresholds.
Google's not the end-all. It's the best at finding the most informative pages on a certain topic, but when you're trying to find a specific page that you've been to before, it's not so good. Searching for words you remember on that page won't work so well since Google mostly indexes by how other pages link to it.
But their main argument, that file swapping is obviously decreasing sales because sales have gone down, has no legs to stand on when sales are increasing.

I mean, when with full sound you can't get good dictation, the possibility of eeking it out of throat twitches are fairly low, methinks.
Perhaps, instead of Fedora defining the market, they author is using it as an indication of how distributions are moving, hmm?
It's a fairly obvious step, anyway. Nearly all the major distros have rejected Xfree 4.4. Unless they want to stagnate with the status quo forever, they're going to have to switch to Xorg.
What? Nobody has ever said that the GPL prevents forks. That would be the exact opposite of the "freedom" that the gpl is supposed to provide.
However, it's culturally discouraged, so it doesn't happen too often. But the GPL exists to ensure that you can always fork if software isn't going the way you want.
The Sci-Fi Channel announced quite a while ago that they were making a Myst miniseries. I haven't heard a peep about it since.
Does anyone know if that's still going forward? How many planned miniseries actually come to completion -- if Myst was silently cancelled, are the chances of this one being finished questionable?

GTK 2.4.0 Released

· Score: 1
I'm fairly sure netscape was done in motif...
mozilla uses gtk, though.
Never had any problems with nvidia drivers. I have a dual-monitor setup, I run ut2003/4, enemy territory, neverwinter nights, all that stuff, nary a hiccup.
perhaps something else is causing your hangs. I used to get that from heat problems, before i switched to an aluminum case.
Really, I've never understood why distros don't take advantage of the GPL and use the easy-to-use installers with magic hardware detection from the likes of Mandrake.
Everything mandrake does is gpl'd, so there's no reason that debian couldn't keep their crazy "hard" installer for traditionalists and setup the mandrake installer to install debian easy-like for newbies. why duplicate effort?
The services that were successfully changed by boycott had a majority of black users.
For instance, the famous rosa parks bus boycott -- blacks were a large majority of bus riders.
It's really not possible to harm things by boycott on the internet. unless you pay for an ad on google that says "don't go to this site" whenever a search turns it up, there will always be interested users who will hear about it and go. It's sort of a variant on the axiom that "the internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it."
How could the free software resurgence of Unix be "much to the surprise" of Stallman when he made it his life's work to create a free software replacement for Unix?
I guess he just doesn't pay much attention to what he's doing...
Huh, I was just reading "The Defenseless Dead" last week...
In that case it's not really a silly term for a sci-fi concept, it's an example of how language is propaganda, and the spread of the demeaning term "corpsicle" helped to justify breaking up the cryotank inhabitants for organ transplants.
If gpl violations are only pursued when they seem to be "important," companies would see that as a go-ahead to use gpl'd code willy-nilly in commercial apps, and only cough up source if they get called on it.
That would completely defeat the purpose of what the gpl is supposed to accomplish.
Hmm. I'm using mandrake, but with a 2.6 kernel. It's also helpful to not run a window manager -- moving/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc to xinitrc.old and creating a new one with just
exec/path/to/ut2004demo
Doing that, I get a frame or two better than windows normally, but nothing noticeable. This is with nvidia drivers, a geforcefx 5900, and 64-bit mandrake on an athlon 64.

And if you haven't tried kdevelop 3.02, I suggest you do. It can't do quite everything visual studio does, but it's REALLY nice, orders of magnitude less bloated, has a good ui and some auto-completion. It serves all my needs quite nicely, but then I'm not a professional developer.

At first blush I would consider this a good idea, but seeing that Lieberman endorsed it, I'm forced to knee-jerk the other way.

No. Intel is not better supported than AMD under linux. Specific chipsets do not a rule make.
Huh...that was also Linus's pre-bitkeeper manner of kernel management. If the patch was important, they'd send it again.

Now it's freeware, available from the scummvm people, and it's a great game. Highly recommended. It worked perfectly, no crashes or anything.
Congratulations.

He means the curse ON amiga, that such a superior machine was mismanaged into the ground, not that Amiga is a curse.
