but what monopoly?
i see macs, i see red hats, i see real players and firebirds
they are dominant, but in what way am I even inconvienienced for avoiding ms?
not that ms isnt culpible for its crimes, but thanks to creative and intelligent and bored middle class programmers, we finally are able to overcome and avoide monopolies....
or im just a moron
Man, you can always use macromedia flash and a web browser... that's what I do. hell even basic html and some good images are basically the same thing as powerpoint... and more compatible...
Powerpoint is like AOL, its just very very easy to do
but if you need a better presentation, do what the big companies do when they present to you, use a flashy sexy flash animation
or alcohol, alcohol could sell a dead llama to a empty jar of butterranch
Newsflash, they have made a lot of mistakes and set the tech industry back quite a ways by destroying innovation with subpar crap, but they also did a great deal to advance us. Sometimes the world needs a hegemon.
so many programs written for Dos and Windows. Could any programmer have made as much money without that large compatible market?
Its too bad they have been and become concerned with competitors rather than innovation...
but it isnt a joke, its just too bad for you and me and billy g
Im submitting this from my gitmo cage right now!
It's not so bad really, though this tablet PC is just junk. I mean seriously! Damn thing only gets 12 fps on counterstrike.
OH you certainly can do better than that, kiddo.
Microsoft has done some serious stuff here, and I'm honestly disapointed. I'd love to see a large company not go down in flames, we certainly don't need to see MIcrosoft need to lay off anybody, the tech sector is suffering enough.
They have it sooo good, is it so much for them to enjoy their position and just innovate, have fun, and compete? No, I guess 800 billion is better than 80 billion, but I don't really know pragmatically why.
Why be so cutthroat, i ask, and remember that's probably how they got where they are in the first place.
And then I come in here, depressed, and the trolls arent even slightly creative?
Dont be too hard on AOL, if it weren't for that sore thumb '@aol.com' it'd be a lot harder for me to identify dummies out there.
dumb people are simply a fact of life, and they deserve to get some internet access. a spoon feeding paternalistic service is great for them, and worth the money, and they give a lot of their money (more loosely than most) to a lot of internet businesses, though i have to admit they arent really much effect on the Linux community
they just keep going and going, it's not like they even are right or harmed by anything, and they almost certainly know they are going to lose, but they just keep harassing and harassing... on principle.
What is it that these people get for scamming all those people? a pittance? They're a common stock company! not some spamming script kiddie in mama's garage.
I hope, and even beleive that you are right, but that is irrelevant.
It's hollywood that makes these decisions.
The US hasnt had a new Nuke reactor in decades thanks to hollywood, though they are not really that dangerous.
I disagree. Whatever system offers such freedom will be in my and your living room.
Whatever system gets on MTV will be in everyone elses. Think about PS2, its got the most revenue potential for game producers becuase everyone bought it, so all the games come out for it, causing an infinite loop.
One company just has to become the hip system that gets the headstart.
The company that spends more on advertising and endorsment versus development will come out first.
Sad state of affairs, I suppose.
Can you imagine a nuclear space vessel going columbia on us in the atmosphere?
accidents happen, but that accident could be ugly ugly.
I think if we devlop nuclear vessels the nuclear part should be assembled after it launches and it should never reenter.
i understand what you are saying, but i still disagree. the clicks themselves are part of the problem. If I were stalking a girl, my talking to her on the phone would be illegal speech invirtue of what they were a part of.
obviously speaking to others is not a crime, though when it is part of a pattern of harassment or extortion each action is a crime.
and it is fraud, it is an attempt to impersonate a clickthrough human when in fact its a bot.
This may not seem like much, but it is fraud in the literal sense
exactly
driving a car is not a crime, but if you drive a car over a person or away from the bank you robbed it is criminal
clicking is not a crime, but threatening to click a bunch to ruina business unless they pay is criminal
He didnt click on banners and is not charges with doing so.
He is charged with threatening to harm their ability to make money, the means to which are clearly wrong.
He said 'gimme some money, or i release a nefarious program'
that request is the crime, not the actions themselves.
Great, sad, point.
But remember that as these devices get more complex, the time when some smart fella or lady throws linux on it get more near. Eventually, it won't matter that The Man doesn't support OV. As technology improves, the open source community has more places to innovate and use the best compression music among other things.
It's only because of open sourcers creating such things as OV that arent the most useful now that we will ever have hope of such things being useful ever. I'm just glad they are ironing out wrinkles before I need their stuff to work.
I noticed that the Northwoods and older Anthlons were reasonably close in speed as well. And those medium range chips are getting pretty cheap! Plenty of great double proc. chipsets out there. If you want to blow the doors off of a prescott (that sounds do preppy) just get a double processor northwood for less.
OR go with AMD, of course.
Maybe it is cheesy and annoying, but commercial plugs sometimes make ends meet.
I appreciated the content, and chuckled at the plug, but really, it didn't hurt anything. I assume that someone reading such an article would need more info than that to actually select corsair.
my university could use this telescope. I go to Texas Tech, and our observatory is now in the middle of a lit up parking lot. The other one fell off of its artillery mount.
We have a few reflecting scopes, the kind you carry around, but this would be a neat monument/useful tool.
Bah' It seems all my school wants to improve is its 256 billion $ football stadium...
Still, perhaps the right place for this is a non elite school
The problem my friend is that we will discover dozens more in that size range. It is terribly inconvenient, and pretty inaccurate, to momorize the list of 30-50 planets when clearly there is a difference between merc-neptune and the rest.
we need to chance the way we picture the solar system. it isnt a defined planet of ten spheres that suddenly stop. it goes on and on and on and thins to the point where its just arbitrary to define the end.
no problem naming the solar orbital objects sedna and pluto and etc, but its impractical to classify every such thing a planet just to make scientists feel warm
No it wont work with FFXI or any other proprietary game.
You cant boot up w/o that memory card with the other hd.
Sorry buddy, that's why that linuz hd just plummeted in price
No offense buddy, but I believe that PS2 games are like 640 by 480
might look better on a blurry TV set.
And I don't think you can use the system with a monitor practically. Remember, it boots and operates from a memory card, you have to switch that out to play games....
Anyway, there are better ways to get RCA to VGA.
By better I mean cheaper. Run Linux on your home box... novelty is an expensive passion
My friend, a great way to save money on games... if that is a problem for you (it is for me) is just be a year or two behind reality.
It isn't hard to do. I play on my dreamcast, and I play quake2, those are ancient, but my computer was 300 bones and runs like a champ..
games serve the purpose of entertaining, and with limited means, you get better entertainment by playing something maxed out on an old machine than trying to get that adequate system to lag along.
And the games are never more than 10 bucks.
Marx was wrong about almost everything, but his effect on our country has been great with social welfare reforms. This middle ground may be a tense one, but most great relationships are tense.
The world will not go to hell. Everyone will not be kinda poor. There will always be something someone else wants, and thus we will always compete for it. Capitalism is really just nature.

Soviet Russia? she sure gets around. You could save the trip and just go to Florida, she'll do it there for a pittance.

I'll ask the prof. to look into this, it sounds promising, and that observatory is going to waste as it is.
I know, I did read the article, i just am incoherent. The clicking itself is only fraud in virtue of the threat
Maybe Linux Today can ask for money from major media outlets to prevent them from linking.
He didnt click on banners and is not charges with doing so. He is charged with threatening to harm their ability to make money, the means to which are clearly wrong. He said 'gimme some money, or i release a nefarious program' that request is the crime, not the actions themselves.
