    How do you know I have a soap server?
    And what's a soap server anyway?

  2. Re:For the love of $DEITY on Google's Blog Search · · Score: 1

    Please let this mean that blogs are now excluded from the main google search?
    That would be cool, considering that 99.(9)% of blogs use some recognizable publishing script.

  4. Re:I wonder. on Titan Occupies A Solar System Sweet Spot · · Score: 1

    most of the star systems we've been able to watch closely have superjovian planets in orbit around them
    I suppose that's the reason we discovered them. And 'watch' is not an appropiate word for describing 'supposing planet when star is wobblig'

    Yeah, wrap libaa or libcaca into a Display Device Driver and switch to 132x80 Text Mode!!

  8. Re:huh? on Bulky System Requirements for Windows Vista · · Score: 1

    Right.
    Pointers will double their size. Ints will not (at least not for MSVC, where you have LONGLONG).
    Now, the reason we use pointers is that we do not have memory to pass that info "by value".Therefore the pointers are a shorthand. Therefore are shorter. Much much more shorter - compare 100 pointers against a texture!

    Then again.. the texture will be the same on 64 bit machines.

    WHat the hell are they talking about?!??

  9. Re:640 GB should be enough for anyone... on Bulky System Requirements for Windows Vista · · Score: 2, Funny

    I wonder what this will do to gaming..
    256 MB Video ram for the game..
    256 MB Video ram for the MessageBox that says 'Cannot initialize DirectX'
    4 GB of ram so you can see the messagebox the same day you ran the game.. priceless!

    I can run Doom3 at 1024x768 at pretty high quality with my 128MB card
    Windows 95 had the same requirements of Quake 1. Need to generalize this??!

  16. Software-cut features on Itanium Will Only Be Partly Supported by Longhorn · · Score: 0, Troll

    Longhorn will run three types of higher-end tasks on Itanium including databases, custom jobs and CRM. However it will not be able to do fax server, Windows Media Services, Windows SharePoint Services, file and print servers, and others.

    Looks like Vista Home Edition to me.

    When were the software makers first allowed to abnormally cut features based on arbitrary critera? It's a real shame.
