If software developers wrote code in C, and included compile options for all operating systems, it wouldn't be a problem either. Those same shrink wrapped boxes would work on all computer platforms. However because M$ was able to corner (yes corner there's no way out) much of the market Software has been developed using M$ Winblows only code.
It would not be possible to get an accurate reading from this. Because the operating system would have to be compiled for each hardware platform. Also to keep it fair we would have to do the same for the benchmark software. I am aware of no OS that will go accross all platforms. BSD comes close (since OS-X is BSD based) but doesn't quite get all architectures.
However, most of our (Canada's) Research has gone into underwater exploration. This only makes sense since over 80% of our border is coastline. This is where to look for examples of canadian robotics.
Other examples of advances from canadians is some of the more advanced Meterology satallites that have been designed and developed here in our humble country.
Most times... people who create such political works do so for the response it gets from those who see it.
All this fighting is exactly the response they look for.
BTW: from what I've seen all politians are lying @$$ holes that don't deserve to be in power, and are usually un aware of the real issues that people want addressed. That said I guess we aren't allowed to talk about them on the news either because everything they do is a skrew up and it makes them look bad (like this parady)
You never met a Canadian I take it... "who in their camp is crazy enough..." we're all crazy... "Canadians were beer drinking mellow hockey guys".... we are.
"they got some cahones in the great white north." Damn straight we do:D
Don't you see. Mars once had water, life, and a more protective atmosphere. Then over time the beings that lived there released gasses into the air that reduced the protective layer around the planet. During this time they were exploring nearby planets to go to in order to save the species. Then when they found one that was habitable, they sent as many of their species as they could to this new planet to start all over again.....
While I knew the site had been updated a while ago, the confirmation of the ship date is new news. This means a Doom 3 Lan party for my birthday on Aug. 19th.
Yeah, and we have real beer, that actually contains alcohol in it. Not that Near Beer that you guys try to sell as beer
Seriously though, part of why it's 40% cheaper is the exchange rate, the rest is cost of living is lower. And I for one am glad to hear this, I'm a Software Developer that's working at best buy because no one is hiring fresh college grads anymore.
I made a deal with the school... Don't expel me... I'll help you fix it. Also admitting through an anonymouse hotmail account helped... especially since every time i logged in it was from the school IP address.
That was kind of the point of the article too. The cashiers shouldn't have to know. If there are some circumstances where seeing that information would be useful then by all means continue making it available, but discretely and out of the standard flow.
But since both sections use the inventory system, which part should be the used by 90% of the time?
And yes games do detect hardware, but you have to install them to do that... and he wants to run them off CD. Also most games have maps and stuff compressed to fit onto CD... I can't wait for DVDs for everything....
Slashdot Mirror
do this for linux, windows, bsd and others.... and only SOME libraries are platform dependendent
Why must everything be compared to Boulder, Colorado?
Because were talking about rocks... and Boulders

I would, but I'm afraid that they'll make me pay for reading it after I'm done. 'cause somebody probably copyrighted the copyright laws.
You're welcome to come in (we let everyone else in anyway) but leave your security holes in comunications software in your own country.
;)
There's an igloo up the street that a family just moved out of.
Here's a better system for $374.97
Good ISP for parts of Canada This totals $35.40/yr
Or get any ISP that's $9.95/month = $119.40/yr
Grand total of $494.37 (374.97 + 119.40), it's much less then this AOL deal and a better computer.

Umm.... Getting a Mac is choosing a third type of CPU... So essentially, you're still making a Choice.
Open Task Manager, and sort by Image Name.
:(
Open "My Computer" and type "slashdot.org" beside where it says "Address" and hit enter.
Note in Task Manager "IExplore" (aka Internet explorer) still isn't there.... hmm.... same program just with a slightly different name..
Next Word, and Publisher will be the same program with different toolbars enabled..... Wait... they did that already.
The vast bulk of programming is just repetition. It's skilled repetition, but no more so than drafting or car repair.
Um, just one question... Where would computers be without hackers, and software devlopers?
Answer: We would be here

:D
All are invited
Let's all speak Elvish
Repeat after me....
"I am an Individual"
the Astro-physics event? We'll combine them for a duathalon...
The only word I don't understand :(
(Written on a AMD 3200+. But you knew that already, I'm sure.)
was detained in Japan for an apparent passport violation and will be deported to the United States.
So they stopped him from going home, so they could then send him home???
Beer == Good.

On the screen cap, the title bar said "Ameya Glui", this just sounds scarier then GUI... It sounds.... sticky :P
I hope the breaks work good!!!!
How long of a runway would you need to stop from a speed tha fast??
