The original ritz/walgreens no-lcd camera has been thoroughly hacked. Download programs/drivers exist for both Windows and Linux.
The newer no-lcd camera has not been completely hacked, but you can add a memory card slot and download your pictures using your memory card reader. IIRC it's "smartmedia" memory cards.
The newest lcd cameras have not been hacked, nor is it possible to add a removeable memory card. Progress is ongoing, but of course it depends on the free time available to the hacker(s).
The LCD is a known device and the datasheet is available, so the possibility of using it in projects is high.
Personally, I am eagerly awaiting the debut of this in my local CVS,
My DC280 died about a year ago (refused to power up at all). I went so far as to take the thing apart and check all of the battery connections with a multimeter, but no luck. Put it back together, gave it to my 4 year-old daughter. She was kind enough to whack it on the ground a couple of times. Lo and behold, it now works perfectly.:)
A child *fixing* something by using violence? You should be receiving a visit from the entropy police soon.
...unless you have the resources to maintain it yourself.
You will find gaps in the utility of any set of tools you use, but a maintained project will be likely to have a community of people who can verify any patches you submit and provide tips on using the software in the most effective manner.
Professionals and/or busnesses who have the money will pay to get the support.
Folks too cheap to pay will either run this without support (and thus cost SUSE/Novell no money) or switch to another distribution which is suitable for their purposes.
Of course if SUSE learned that some big corporation was using the evaluation version they might be able to pursue legal action.
It certainly must be tempting to either add features that only EA games will be able to make use of, or to slow down development of the version they liscense to others while adding features for their own games.
Then you'll love mailinator.com. Send mail to an arbitrary address (Make it up on the fly!) and they hold it there for a couple of hours. Retrieve the mail without passwords or any other pain.
It's great for registering for NYT articles, forum accounts, or anything that will quickly send you a response.
Mine also. Realisticly that's all I'll ever use, even if I start swapping family photos with it.
One feature for Yahoo! (or any other webmail service) that would be nice would be the ability to detach the attachments but save the text of the message.

Filling all of them with resin would be expensive.
If they were smart they would only fill the ones sold to hackers with resin.
I'm not going to reveal how they will tell which potential buyers are hackers.
Unit for Cold anyone?
The Fonz?
Anyway - Motion looks cool but it's Mac only so.... ...we'll have to run it using PearPC?
Except then we would have to call it Slow Motion.
Does the "2" in Dracula 2000 count?
Because that was the worst movie I ever saw, even worse than "The Monster that Challanged the World."
...so is it worth buying a new box just to run the test_boxstack map?
JBOD is also good if you have multiple systems. I've got large drives in each of my computers, and they regularly exchange data as a backup.
Of course this won't help if a tornado, thunderstorm, fire, terrorist, or exorcism wipes out both of them.

Is there a video game version of A Modest Proposal ?
It's almost certainly set up on the honor system.

After two hours of getting creeped out, eaten alive, ass kicked, munched on. pulled down the ever so trusty in-game commandline, typed in the words:
spawn monster_boss_cyberdemon
Holy mother of God! Is that...omg!!...
Yes, that is Bill Gates' head in a jar.
Was it a pr0n DVD?
It appears that the flagrant use of obscenities is good karma on Slashdot.
It certainly must be tempting to either add features that only EA games will be able to make use of, or to slow down development of the version they liscense to others while adding features for their own games.
Slick. I was wondering if something like that existed for mailinator.
Thanks!!

Have they tested the translation capabilities of these little critters?
Very interesting and informative link. Thanks!
What the heck is a water bullet?
Won't the terrorists make their coke-can IEDs look like these cans now that they know that they'll look alike in X-rays.
Confuse the heck out of the prize team, press the button in flight.
