I borrowed a simple 5 Mega Pixel camera from a friend 3 years ago and it had a built-in flat picture taking mode.
It was one of the common brands probably a cybershot (though not really sure).
In other news, Slashdot is doing a way with moderators. With the motto 'Unmoderated is moderated', the idea is that when faced with unmoderated posts, readers will naturally read all posts. Then again, they may end up with posts in other languages like Hindu and Chinese and not labeled as trolls.
It looks like they will soon send messages to parents informing them that their kids are engaging in filesharing amongst themselves at their homes using the home network.
I do not believe that to be a valid poll. Most of those clicked to take it are most likely in the "click hungry" category. This category of internet users visit websites and the first thing that catches their eye sight is a huge banner or pop up with phrases like
"Take this poll to win an ebay gift certificate"
"Shoot the rabbit and get a free ipod"
....
Or worse still, those found the site already had a spyware problems and where looking for solutions so they took the quiz. You just don't wait outside a creek to find out about the memory capabilities of the residents of a city.

A number of years ago it was My Computer, then My Zombie. Atleast I still owned the damn thing. I guess the zombie is going to be formally taken away .
Even if it is taken away it will remain My Precious.
Looking at the situation a little deeply, I do not expect microsoft to let it happen without a fight.
Usually students want to have the same kind of operating system as that used at their school.
If not that, it is a better/newer version of the same brand.
What happens when they leave school?? Go back to microsoft?? I don't think so. After that wherever they go or work, they will push for what they use. If it is open source then open source it is.
Microsoft's strategy is like that of the tobacco companies. Get them hooked while they are still young.
NewScientist is running story about NASA's plan to put small, heat-resistant black boxes that will transmit data back to Earth when future space probes break up during re-entry to the Earth's atmosphere.
Why don't they make the whole damn space craft out of that heat resistant material.
Trying to design a $100 dollar laptop for starving users or kids who still go to schools where blackboards are mounted on trees is not a feasible idea.
I do not think AFP looked that far before they filed the law suit. Or maybe they did, I cannot be sure, but I bet what they surely looked at was the money they could extract from the successful search giant.
Actually, they could even have facilitated this in one way or another, ok I am not a website king, but isn't there a way one can block the google web crawlers from indexing the material on there websites?
If AFP are successful in extorting even afew dollars from google, this could lead to an avalanche of suits against search companies.
Think about it, set up site -> register with search engines or use the right meta tags -> claim the search engine went beyond the limits -> sue and get rich.
ipchains? I lost mine several years ago when iptables came out. Come on man, UPGRADE!!!;-)
The latest version of the ipchains is the iptables. Come on man, don't loose track of versioning
Trust me, watch which wheel you re-invent.

I took a Java course in college and the first chapter in the Course Text was all about not re-inventing the wheel. But when I got a program off the internet and handed it in for my assignment I was penalised heavily.

No fish and chips here. Please move along.

You are a hard core criminal dude. Not committing the crime is not an option.

Ok Mr poster, I admit I have not RYFA. But if you played with it and it still does what sony intended it to do, then you don't know how to play.

If the human package came with this feature.
/.ers would boast of being family men too.
Oh lord, why us?
Is it just a coincidence that the RIAA President is called Sherman?
