  2. SMS/MMS and disconnects on New Attack Can Disable Phones Via SMS · · Score: 1

    A lot of phones(including Androids) have issues when receiving SMS and MMS, the other day we had a problem with a certification made by a carrier that failed. Our software was getting disconnected when a MMS arrived(not even downloaded), turns out the phone connection was getting completely locked for more than 1 minute and that only happened with said carrier, with another the issue only happened when the MMS was downloaded. The whole thing is a a mess, both from manufacturers and carriers.

    you simply cannot do it without learning a LOT about GNU/Linux at a very low level.

    In my first Gentoo instalation i was using Linux only for one month, i had no problems, it was annoying but not hard.

    Now, one year before, i still can't say i know a LOT about GNU/Linux.

  11. Re:Not suprising; I hope the book's good on Dive Into Python · · Score: 1

    From the article I noticed one interesting thing - his world didn't quite work out until that company chipped in some money for him to finish the thing.

    For what i understood his world works, he's giving the book for free. If someone is paying or not to he finish the book doesn't seen to be the question, he said that maybe he would make money but giving the book for free, he doesn't said that he would not make money.

  12. Re:Too much like MS? on Gnome 2.8 RC1 Released · · Score: 1

    what would I call the ones to Opera, IE and firefox?

    You can create another folder, i do almost the same the guy you quoted... but i have something like: fav apps, and there i have: web->opera, music->xmms, video->gmplayer, IM->gaim, etc

    I use E, the first apps that apears is the ones from the first folder, so it is quite convenient. Other "alternative" apps i put in other folders.

    I've also shortcuts to launch my apps, control+alt+w for web, ..+i IM, ...+m Music, so i can open my apps with convenience, if i change my Browser or IM i'll have the same shortcuts and in the same place in the menu.

    Sounds strange, but works nice, did you already tryied to do something like this?

    How do I convert from kilograms to pounds?

    Yeah, i know it's offtopic, but i will show something i like :)

    Search in google:
    Nkg to pounds
    N = the number of Kilograms you want to convert to pounds

    One simple result:
    http://www.google.com/search?q=2kg+to+pounds
    And the google calculator will say to you:
    2 kilograms = 4.40924524 pounds

    I love google :)

  17. Re:Alternative Idea on ESA To Study Human Hibernation · · Score: 1

    That's one of the reasons i've questioned the source.

    Hibernation is diferent from Torpor state, a Bear enters in Torpor state, you can wake up a Bear, you can't wake up an animal in hibernation.

  18. Re:Alternative Idea on ESA To Study Human Hibernation · · Score: 1

    How can someone believe in a source when it says things about "winter", it's isn't a question about a time of the year, it's clear about hostage climate.

    Yeah, i've said wrong things, zero and somethings that tends to zero are diferent, anyway i was only trying to explain a simple thing, that a fucking bear doesn't hibernate.

  19. Re:Alternative Idea on ESA To Study Human Hibernation · · Score: 1

    Finally someone that not says that Bears hibernate :)

    I think if the metabolism tends to zero so everything will also tends do stop, ain't this right?

    Anyway I've made the wrong definition, thanks for correcting me ;)

  20. Re:Alternative Idea on ESA To Study Human Hibernation · · Score: 0

    Your sources are wrong:

    'hibernation

    n 1: the torpid or resting state in which some animals pass the winter 2: cessation from or slowing of activity during the winter; especially slowing of metabolism in some animals 3: the act of retiring into inactivity; "he emerged from his hibernation to make his first appearance in several years"'


    In Hibernation the metabolism doesn't slow, the metabolism goes do zero, everything stops, an animal in hibernation doesn't need oxygen in the brain because the brain stops.

  21. Re:legal issues? on Don't Nurse Old Hardware - Emulate It · · Score: 1

    Emulation comes out with the first upgrade of a CPU.

    If they have total rights of emulation(this isn't true, already mentioned in other replys) then they could stop the hardware industry.

    An emulator is something wich does the some output or imput of the emulated hardware, all these videogames emulators are only "true emulators" if they output the same as the real hardware and receive the imput from acessories.

    A more detailed view:
    You will have an Super Nes emulator for the point of view of your TV if you output the grafics in your TV using the TV-OUT from your GPU.
    You will have an Super Nes emulator from the perpective of the joystick if you adapt your joystick to use in the computer, then the joystick can send the same data to your computer that it sends to the real console.

  22. Re:Alternative Idea on ESA To Study Human Hibernation · · Score: 1

    That's the point, you can't wake up(by normal metods :D) an animal if he is hibernating because his heart is stopped -> this is the main definition of Hibernation.

    No, bears can't hibernate.

    In hibernation the animal will have the heart stopped, this doesn't happens with the bear.

  24. Re:What about QEMU on VirtualPC 2004 Versus VMWare 4.5? · · Score: 1

    I never heard and never seen this, maybe you are wrong or is something in QEMU roadmap.

    If you look at QEMU FAQ you will see this:

    "Is QEMU a virtualizer or an emulator ?
    QEMU is an emulator. It means that it converts each target CPU instruction into host instructions. Therefore, it emulates any supported target processor on any supported host processor."

    Anyway using dynamic translation you can get good speeds at the cpu emulation, not the same as doing total binary translation, but you can get something usable, but not productive(only in special cases like using DOS in QEMU -> you can get better results than DOSBOX and Freedos+DOSEMU)

  25. Re:What about QEMU on VirtualPC 2004 Versus VMWare 4.5? · · Score: 1

    QEMU is an emulator, not a Virtual Machine.

    An emulator is too slow compared with a Virtual Machine, so many things that you can do with VMWARE you can't with an emulator.
