The first thing I noticed when using Opera shift+f11 was that the adds on slashdot and my websites are gone. If people can't see the ads then i'm not going to bend over backwards so they can view my website on their tiny screen. I have no idea if this applies to all mobile devices or if this is something that google, amazon, ect. just don't care to address.
don't worry, we aren't gonna bend over to watch your fucking ads either.
I looked at my website's logs for that day and found over 50 instances of a request for "HEAD / HTTP/1.0" from a single IP address. What made this even more suspicious was the fact that they were all made with "Wget/1.10", and that IP never requested any other page from my site, not even the image/CSS files used on the main page.
So 50 hits/day is a dramatic spike? A whole lotta business you're running.
And the last time you wrote a program did you just say int or uint32? I highly doubt that majority of programs specified the size of their memory requirements and just let the normal word size of the platform dictate it for them.
With the majority of the structures using the default word size, going from 4 to 8 bytes is going to increase those memory requirements.
sizeof(int) is 32 bits both on ia32 and amd64, using gcc at least.
Yeah, until you try to ctrl-tab while using KDE. That's the main reason I hate KDE. Of course, I doubt IE will be available for KDE anytime soon anyhow:)
Because sure as hell you cannot rebind the next/previous desktop keys. Not.
It is just a matter of time before this is implemented on the OS level (in linux, macOS, and longhorn)
yeah,/proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode and associated acpi scripts are sure a long way into the future. not. it has been present in 2.4 linux kernels for quite a time. when longhorn comes out, it'll be *years* behind schedule
Well, sucks to be you (or anybody owning a cell in the US). The *only* time I have no coverage is when I'm in a pub in some deep cellar (and that's *good*:), otherwise I always get 5/5 signal strength, whatever the building is made of (like a 50cm thick brick wall with generous steel reinforcements) and regardless of being in a city or in the middle of nowhere. It may be a tad expensive (getting much better recently) but it just works(tm). I'd be surprised and pissed if I didn't have coverage just because I'm in some building.
I ended up spending around 3k for a machine with Monarch/NewEgg and did some of the assembly myself but my wife now has a computer that I won't have to upgrade for quite some time. That includes the 3 year warranty from Monarch.
Man, for $3k I'd settle for nothing less than a server-grade machine (2-way, RAID and stuff). You got ripped off. Sibling post has a very important phrase - point of diminishing returns. I upgraded my machine (AMD64/3000+ BOX, 512MB, 450W PSU) for about $400 (while the USD exchange rate was hitting the rock bottom). Sure I could go for, say, 4000+ but what would be the point? It's not noticeable except for benchmarks and CPU-bound work and would increase the price about 2x or 3x. I don't plan to upgrade for the foreseeable future anyway.
Don't know what it looks like over the pond but a vendor offered me a desktop-grade machine for $3k, I'd laugh him to hell. A local vendor came to offer my father a box for $1500 (two nice mothly salaries here), they heard a hearty fsck you and we rolled our own (90% of the spec, unnoticeable under normal work conditions) for about $550. Warranty? Laughable, the service guys are morons anyway.
Granted, I do support and service a few Dell boxen but we only bought them because they were dirt cheap (bought on online auctions) and it's a PITA too (burnt PSU? broken motherboard? everything is non-fucking-standard).
Your dumb, self-centered and retarded comments make me think you're American. If so, I feel really sorry for you as you'll probably never meet a woman who could even compare to Polish girls.

whoooosh!
What? fucking too much will kill you?
:P
That's what I'm researching with my GF at the moment. Envy me
Mod parent up to heaven :)
I misread that as "recursively".

when our dad got home he would thrash us to sleep with a broken floppy.
so, is a 5.25" floppy better than a 3.5" hard?
Maybe we shouldn't, as bandwidth is measured in standard SI units (1Mbps = 10^6bps)
Whoooosh!
Yes, completely different, because companies are more important than people, everybody knows that.
If the police gets money from speeding tickets, the _offender_ pays, if they keep stolen goods for themselves, the _victim_ pays.
I really wish there was a -1 Moron tag.
Yes, with Apache you have to run multiple instances of Apache to run it under different user credentials
No, you don't.
Well the /. community doesn't seem very sophisticated either ;P

best of both worlds?
I'll come over to your house and install it for free. If you want me to shower first, that costs extra.
In his house? Eww.
And at some point during signing up, you have to enter those values in. Via the keyboard.
Or via phone.
How about hardware based encryption built into the keyboard itself?
It needs to be decrypted somewhere, unless it's the keyboard that talks via https to the bank server
If people won't use the open formats already available to them, will they use this new one?
.gov will require all documents sent to them to be in the OASIS format? That would be a pretty strong driving force IMHO.
Because a
