TCP is still on the transport level, so you can still snoop at the bottom half levels (network, data-link, physical). If they wrapped at the IP level, you still have the data-link and physical levels to snoop at. Nobody is going to successfully deprecate TCP/IP just to support some encrypted protocol that only helps DRM, so you'll always have a lower level to snoop network traffic at.
You could always start by collecting existing documentation from tldp.org, Debian, the Gentoo forums, the Ubuntu forums, howtoforge, and other sites and wikis. After that, you only need to cover more specific problems.
With the not-so-recent ISO/IEC standardisation of OpenDocument Format, where's the support for.ods (OpenDocument Spreadsheet) files? Or support for.xlsx (OpenXML Spreadsheet) even? If you can include support for a binary and proprietary format such as Excel's, why not include support for the standard (OpenDocument) or even the bloated may-become-a-useful-standard (OpenXML)? They're both based on XML (which I'm sure the developers at Google are quite efficient with), and they both use simple and established compression formats (ODF uses a.zip file compatible with PKZIP and Java's jar, don't know what OpenXML uses). Even MS Excel supports several different spreadsheet formats; what kind of spreadsheet application can succeed without at least half-way decent support for legacy formats?
Of course, CSV is much simpler than any XML format, but for that exact same reason, you can only store static data in a CSV (unless your static data happens to be formulae that can be executed by your spreadsheet program).
Just wait until GCC makes a native.NET port that compiles them to standalone executables. Mono exists, but I don't know if that compiles to native assembly or MSIL.
For one, JavaDocs include a no frames version, so you can use that just as easily. Also, why are you using the 1.4.2 docs when the recent version is 1.5.0? As a matter of fact, 1.6.0 should be coming out soonish (they're on [weekly] build 86 or so), so I'd recommend that you get with the picture ASAP.
I'd write my representative, but she (Jan Schakowsky) already supports most (if not all) the reforms, changes, and future ideas I would write about anyhow. I can of course write her giving her my support for her support, but more reps need to be replaced by people like her.
Just to say, Cygwin and PuTTY are both open source programs. Cygwin implements a Unix environment for Windows (including the ability to compile and run POSIX-only programs), and PuTTY is typically used for SSH, SFTP, and SCP.
Well, most FOSS is free of charge, yet those developers seem to be able to continue to add new features without charging you for it. Those same developers still get by and get paid to do so, so why can't Microsoft do that as well? Companies like Red Hat, Novell, Sun, and IBM are able to employ people to work on FOSS without losing money, so Microsoft is obviously doing something wrong.
Nobody links to something like that in Vista reviews, so people continue to bash it like so. Maybe if it were included in reviews, people would criticise the changes more accurately.
Since the Pirate Bay is indeed a tracker, there would have been a lot of small traffic pinging the tracker for seeds and leechers as the protocol describes. Only clients supporting DHT (such as Azureus) could get away with not needing the tracker.
Perhaps America and Britain were fascist states during WWII, did you think about that? The difference between the "Allies" and the "Axis" is that the Axis had their powers stripped away, and the Allies (except Soviet Russia) returned back to normal as well without requiring force.
Sure, but it's the job of the Judicial branch to interpret laws as Constitutional or not, not the Legislature's. Something should be done to discourage Congress from even passing blatantly unconstitutional laws in the first place, but going as far as what has been suggested won't help anything.
And people who want a fully supported 64-bit operating system out of the box go with Debian Stable, but of course there's the "it's severely outdated" argument. Good for 64-bit servers, tends to require many backports (or risk using Debian Sid) if you want more cutting-edge desktop packages.
Ubuntu may have put more effort into modifying GNOME, but most KDE users will tell you that the KDE developers put more work into make KDE more polished and usable than GNOME. Not to troll, but after using KDE for so long, going back and trying to use GNOME (e.g. via a LiveCD while demonstrating for a friend) is crippling. Also, for Windows users, there are themes, settings, and whatnot for KDE to feel just like Windows (except more stable, all the benefits of using Linux and a Unix environment over the Windows kernel and its degrading environment which tends to cancel anything good about the kernel). For example, the level of integration you may have come to expect from Explorer/IE with the desktop environment is reminiscent in Konqueror and the usage of KParts, but it's been done far more securely and sensibly.
Halo 2 might be using DirectX 10 for technical reasons, but Microsoft's inability to release DirectX 10 for its other operating systems that actually exist in an arguably usable form is purely not technical.
An attorney's job (as confirmed by the American Bar Association's Attorney's Oath) is to do his or her best job possible for every client to win the case. It's their job! You need to blame the person who hires the attorney for malice or idiocy typically.
Better yet, don't learn assembly until you have a good grasp of fundamental computer science concepts (like the aforementioned design patterns) and can program efficiently in a couple languages (e.g. C and Java, or a procedural and object-oriented language). Learning some assembly is generally interesting as it teaches you the inner workings of processors and computers in general, and you can see how it relates to how languages like C were structured in order to get the best performance possible without writing in assembly.
Then again, I'd only recommend learning a bit about assembly and compiler theory if you're interested in computer science and not just learning the tools necessary for programming.
Schedule the scans via root/Administrator, then don't worry as a virus will have to gain elevated permissions to infect the machine, and if it can do that, it's probably a trojan anyhow, so you have worse things to worry about.
Maybe that's because to do any "real" audio work, you'd get a sound card? There's only so many things you can bundle in a motherboard...

I don't know about you, but in my experience, production Linux servers tend to use the 2.4 kernel.

Oh yeah? I'd call that Jabber, but that's just me.
`du /Applications/iDVD.app/` on my sister's Mac Mini says iDVD takes up 1.5 GB of space. I never knew that...

Dude, I'm not an electrical engineer, and even your explanation clarified that weird statement all the much more. Thanks.

Actually, judging by the somewhat recent news of DNF nearing completion and Vista being delayed once again, I'd think it'll be the other way around.

Back in my day, we had to walk uphill both ways...
