If he is running Linux on a G5 didn't he already have to have looked at the kernel from this point of view... so as to make it available on the platform?
This is the same old song and dance we have heard about people killing/commiting suicide b/c of music, movies, tv and even D&D (tho after 12 straight hours of D&D I might wanna kill someone:P). The only reason the issue of video games is becoming more apparent is becausee video games are too. They are becoming more and more pervasive in our society and as a result get more attention from the news, etc.
Wait so this is basically a contest to see who's life is so devoid of content that they never miss a day of logging on and updating their cartoons... sounds like whoever wins is really the biggest loser;)
haha my *mail password is still 3 characters, no caps and no numbers, it is only a matter of time now before some spammer finds it, exploits it and sends out thousands of emails under my name... somewhere a cs teacher is cringing... 1997, how i do miss thee:D
so does that mean windows users are now more computer savy than linux users?
And more to the point of this article, why why why would windows want to run linux out of town and start getting the feds up their asses for a monopoly again? Whats next, microsoft buys lots of non voting shares in linux just like it did in apple and eventually ends up owning good portions (albeit non voting) of it's two primary competitors - in the os market???
I know lots of people still using windows 98, sql server 2000 (instead of yukon), oracle 8i (as opposed to 10i), etc. Being 1/2 standards behind does not (in my mind) = legacy. Legacy would be like getting windows 3.1x or mac os 9, something so past standard that it will not function with new technologies - IMHO.
How many of you actually think controlling Google.de is really going to do anything while google.com, google.net, google.tv, goggle.us and even google.fr exist!?! (not to mention others I amsure i missed)
This plan seems like taking a knife to a gun fight - sure to fail.
"dark matter is five times more abundant than the ordinary (baryonic) matter that makes up everything we can see and touch." - FTA
Ok so this sounds to me then like it is saying that dark matter makes up 5/6 of all matter in the universe five times more than baryonic:
Since 5x + x = 100% of matter where x = baryonic quantity -- so 6x = total matter matter so there fore dark matter is 5/6 ~ 83% and baryonic is ~ 17%.
This seems like a disproportionally high amount of dark matter in the universe to me. I mean, Duh, right you look in the sky at night and you see little stars in huge mass of black but I still just can't fathom that only 17% of all matter is not dark matter... dose this seem odd to anyone else or am i just totally mis redaing this?
So wait, it works withe wine if it is set to xp? Does this mean the registry is handled differntly b/t the different versions and as such window's downloads check doesn't work?
It's the latest in technology! We can get movies before the books are finished...
"What the hell am I looking at?"
"You're looking at now sir."
"What the hell happened to then?"
"We passed then."
"When?"
"Just now."
"When will then be now?"
"Soon."
Haha, ok i've had my fun, slap the -1 troll up there:P
Something being owned (not pwned:P) -> It can be stolen
Stealing anything that belongs to someone else (even if they are a company) is still illegal and if you recieve stolen goods of any kind I am pretty sure you can get into legal trouble in any state in the U.S.
The sources are the ones that are breaking the confidentiality agreements and leaking the information to the media. The journalists are then doing their job and reporting the information to the world.
So if I go steal a song off the internet and hand it to a radio station disc jockey and he plays it and is therefore not paying for the right to play it he is not guilty of a crime becuase I'm the one that broke the law first and he is just doing his job?
Well I cannot say for China as I have not been there but I have been to Ireland. And while there my primary means of communication with people was aim and email in internet cafes. From my experience there was some guy working there who could care less what you did as long as you paid and he would usually marginally know how to fix computer/network issues.
It was pretty free in terms of what people could and couldn't do on the internet but I don't remember ever seeing kids in the cafes. I want to say I remember there being an age restriction like 16/18 that seems to have been enforced pretty well but I had quite a few pints over there so my memory might not be 100%:)
Just like everyone is saying, cellphones are providing many of ther services that PDA's do for cheaper with the cell phone capability. This, in theory, reduces the ammount of demand (thus lower sales). What will be interesting to see is if this does follow the standard model and drive prices down.
And for the record, I liked my old non-flip phone that I could smash on the floor, drop in a toilet, etc and it would still work... and the batter lasted twice as long....I still think the answer is to combine all these things into mini chips to put into peoples brains and then you don't even have to worry about carrying anything around!
"...potentially infringing copies of motion pictures and other copyrighted material'...users have noted that the software is not accurate; 'tagging' virtually every audio or video file it finds based on file extensions."
How is that not accurate? it says "potentially infringing". From a blind look on any computer I think one would be wont to consider any media file to have the potential to be a copy rigth infringement.
And not only that, but as law makers struggle to decide how many copies (if any) you are allowed to make for yourself what you can and cannot have becomes vauge and as such the potential goes up, that is from the point of an objective ystander... the RIAA would sue you for the copy you bought from teh store if they could
Those idiots? I was going to try and become a member back in college but my cc failed. They kept sending me things asking for my cc # again to get the purchase done so I could be a member and I just ignored it because I decided I didn't want to join.
So they stop eventually but then start sending me emails and newsletters like the sale went through anyways, I asked them to stop sending the news letter and they still send it to me! Let my email address go!!
worm holes, if he could open enough at once he could theorectically deliver all the gifts at once! though, he would nee to keep all the gifts in one spot...maybe a tempory black hole, then they would be a infintely small ingulairty and he could retrieve them whenever... or maybe I'm a programmer who knows nothiing about physics:P (though it would be awesome if santa used worm holes...)

and scroll down to the spiral development model for an idea of how testing/qa can be a part of every phase/round/version/whatever of an entire project
QA is not equivalent to 'testing'
... at least in my experience ;)
No 5h1t, QA is production
First ya find the computer running the wireless then you win 200 euro, then you can buy lots and lots of Guinness ... BRILLIANT!

seriously ... what a surprise, the french don't like competition ...
... you know I'm right!
yeah yeah I know, -1 Troll
... now you hackers have no excuse why you can write equal opportunity worms/trojans/etc for Linux as well as Windows
