look at all of the links to the post at the bottom of that blog - they're like snowflakes or something. it really has improved since i started to use it a year or so ago, nice job google news team.
I'm using a Belkin 802.11G adapter with ndiswrapper. Works like a charm for me - just be sure and have the ndiswrapper sources around to make for when you do kernel upgrades...
So looking at this I can't tell what happens in a dual boot situation - it describes setting up 'autostart' - does this happen at the os level? What i'm wondering is, since this things looks like a windows utility, will the changes stay in effect when I boot into linux? Is there a linux solution if not?
using thunderbird's filters and gmail is as close as i've gotten to a manageable situation, of course the gmail account isn't as old and grey as the last account i retired due to unmanageable spam.....
yeah, this is kind of a weird place to be reading this kind of misguided question - almost like ' oh, here's a good story for the slashdotians to wax sage and feel good about themselves'. wacky.
I guess Gilliam bailed out - funding I Imagine.
But wee free men (and maurice and a hat full of sky) would be nice, they are fun offshoots from the discworld series that would lend themselves well to film - for that matter the bromeliad trilogy (truckers, diggers, and thieves) would be great as well.
Seems like the main discworld strain would be spottyish - I think that all the guards and the witch books would do well, as well as some of the standalone ones, especially small gods..
While this sounds like a cool gizmo it's strange that they shut down their zire operation, which had some success, and are going in a pretty much unproven direction like this which will likely not do much in retail.
So now I'm wondering what this rumored google cube is going to be be like - if the os will be dynamically branded, and I'm also curiouser and curiouser about tv ad opportunities they're sure to persue. Y'know, they could save tivo's butt - what if there was a google ad that popped up when you were pausing or fast forwarding or whatever - tivo should have tons of the kind of data that google is basing their contextual ads on. I gues what bugs me about the radio thing is that it doesn't seem to lend itself to the contextual advertising they are good at, it would have to be more 'just ads' as opposed to contextual. Or maybe they're after the ad sales force they get with this purchase more than a means to get in the medium itself.
That's weird, I had been curious why it was recommending things like reo speedwagon and kenny rogers in the music store - I have no idea how it gets this based on my musical taste. It comes semi-close audiobook wise.
What an underused word heft is. I got to use it talking about a chefs knofe the other day and it was the perfect word to use. I love this idea for mice - I wish there was a keyboard that had some kind of control over how much resistance keyboard keys offered, and even the control over the key acoustics when depressed, clicky or mushy or whatever.
I love my ipod, and listening to music on it is great, but it has definitely made me an audiobook junky - it somehow feels like I'm pulling one over on The Man at work when I'm listening to a book that is actually interesting and possibly sucking my atention away from the job at hand. I realize that this isn't really specific to ipods, but getting one for some reason made me willing to check them out - kind of thought they seemd like a corny idea before. installing linux on it and playing doom was definitely fun, but the audio on the nano in linux is still [retty glitchy, so it's just kind of novel to have. what i'm really looking forward to, or hoping for at least, is the rumored video support for nano in a possible forthcoming firmware upgrade. the nano is just small enough to sneak by veging out on videos all day at work - the laptop is a bit sore-thumbish. hooray!
what is the record for the most google stories at the same time off the slashdot homepage? right now there are 3... wonder what the record is for any single topic having the most slash-share at a given time...
Wow, this 'kid' is 18, as in he's an adult legal record wise, so if he's found guilty, and then say gets deferred adjudication he will still have a felony arrest on his record for life. Pretty whack.

Either they changed that 2 minutes later or you were looking at browser cache.....

I agree - better to strive for 'love what you do'.

I lack the patience to use my reading skills when reading a credit card application - eyes glaze over, hand it to my wife and ask her what it says.

"The funny part from the Post blog entry is that Microsoft helped author the RFC for link local."
Now that is comedy, can hardly move thanks to the side-splitting gut laugh.
Reality check - this is based on revenue, not desktop/server seats.
Could grub or lilo be built on the osx side to handle this?

Wonder how long it takes before we see the retail osx these ship with running on various non-apple intel based products....
this story was just an ad for slashdot!

right now there are 3...

what with filing suit and more than likely spending a good chink of the day figuring out whether or not to sue yahoo over the dashboard thing...

Pretty whack.
Apple is just going to love this. The should have just called it iDashboard to avoid the whole apple litigation this is sure to provoke.
survival of the species is everybody's business.
