I agree. It would have exactly the same impact as a program dedicated to combine harvesters. We should realize that ppl is not specially interested on computers. No more than they're interested on TV sets, for example.
Maybe this may sound strange to a slashdotter, but if you take your eyes off your computer screen and get a bit of light on your dungeon you will notice that the world is around you... just like the sphere tries to simulate. And yes, your vision field is not that wide, not on the real world, not anywhere else.
I think that it was the driver itself. Recently, nvidia got out their new linux driver and, man, they got a perfomance boost so awesome that I cannot yet believe it. I am getting like 7fps more on Doom3 (from 21avg->28avg on demo1, 640x480), UT2004 goes way smooth and some IO hogging by the card was resolved (noticeable by clippy sound when playing games on certain versions of the kernel).
In fact they're so awesome that I began to wonder if the previous driver releases were a bit fucked up. Still dunno, but the perfomance gain has been brutal.
Konkeror on KDE 3.3.1 draws a transparent table (the one faked on the link) around the link, being both (the link and a small space outside the text link) clickable, but with different destinations. The resulting window (either google or microsoft) has no spoofed url.
...same thing with telco companies... better internet alternatives to shitty 3MB cable (japan has 100MB fiber to house)
Do not forget the consequence of this. Japan is the best fiber-optics maker in the world, because they spent years investing on a national infrastructure of fiber-optics for this to become true. The rest of the occidental world will take a couple or maybe three years more to begin to have this. And guess who are we going to buy the technology and send our $$? just Japan.
Just because the US went from pretty much nothing to something doesn't mean the europeans have anything to goad over us.
Are you saying that the parent post of yours is doing some xenophobe afirmations?
The point is that if you go to US and you're not from the US (I do not say american... cubans are americans too) you have a serious risk of being humiliated by US frontier guards, being the risk proportional to:
Size of your moustach
Darkness of your skin
My brother went to US last year. He has no moustach, but a aggressively black hair and he has a dark skin. He was locked by the airport guards for 3 hours. They even assured that he was on a black list (!!!) only to scare him to see his reaction.
Well, if that is what you call freedom... FIGHT AGAINST THAT, BY GOD'S SAKE!!!. There will not be another opportunity.
Yeah, I own a Elta 8883 that costed me ~120 (like $150) that plays almost every file I've ever encoded.
Well, actually it does not play (although it was promised, such of vaporware) OGG media files (neither vorbis sound nor OGG media container files).
I'm in doubt some hardware player (not PC based) could ever play OGM or MKV (you know, their flashable memories are not specially big even on more expensive players).
I played movies from PC for at least 4 years... I got tired of tweaking visuals to be readable on TV, and of the cables. And noise: the price to silence the Duron 700 machine I had for this is higher than buy a Elta 8883 machine. Last year I was using GeeXboX, a linux liveCD as small as 6 MB with the kernel, alsa, mplayer, network drivers, samba client, ftp server and client and a cute interface. Cool software.

I know the date of Thanksgivin Day!!! - 10^10 movies speaking about that freakin' day and no one informed me.
PS: I'm spanish

Specially from someone with hairy knuckles.
...I'm not so sure about the significance of the content, what did they write/read in 19th Century?...
What they named news at their time is what we call history right now.
It is risky to ask because the game is available for a while but... has been the game cracked by someone?
We just need the basics like opcodes and register addresses. That information is not patentable (they're just numbers)
Yeah, and chemical formula is no more than several letters and digits...
... you only have to put an EULA on your virus to make AV enterprises go illegal by doing reverse engineering.

...since says to me something about a forbidden 503, which is a prime number...
last time I checked, the FCC ruled on things like broadcasting through EM waves... so they also rule on the broadcast's content?
...two men dressed as characters from 'Counter Strike'...
Yeah. Let's kill all those crazy Delta Force bastards, they're dressed almost exactly as the "counter" forces. They must be potential murderers!!!
I was joking! Seems like the moderator either is a religion fundamentalist or has no sense of humour et al.
... I currently use Kazaa to share out a handful of audio sermons from my church's pastor ...
You're tricking a bit the kazaa credit system, eeh? Cool way of having a gig of mp3 available that you know nobody is gonna download.
Ribosomial computers... hmmm I think I should file a patent against this. Thank you, nice idea!

It's not a particular slashdot defection. Firefox fails when dealing with relative sizes (specially table sizes expressed on '%').

It generates color using an entirely new driving method called sub-pixel unit driving methodology
I suppose I got my driver license from the wrong place...
They'll provide GCola test drinks on their first GTravel Airlines trip.
