The mechanism of voting must be ethically secure from all forms of fraud. Currently, there is no standard voting mechanism. Paper voting machines, long the standard, are cumbersome and inefficient. Electronic voting mechanisms are prone to fraud from outside interestes or from internal corruption.
To solve the problem of voting fraud at a mechanical level, many would seek to improve the mechanism. These voting machines are, at their core, computers. From touchscreens to punchcards to beans in a hat, voting machines are all computational devices. There are limits to the security/infallibility of any secret voting machine. The mechanism can be tampered with at too many levels. Any mechanism installed to monitor another anti-fraud mechanism could be tampered with as well.
The only solution that comes to mind is public voting. Public voting would be the case that you let your vote be associated with you. No more voting anonymously. This may seem like a great loss of freedom, but consider the increased power it gives the public. Votes could be counted and recounted by several independant parties after and during the vote. Being responsible and accountable for the vote that you make might seem like a liablity, but it may be a small price to pay for equal and accurate representation.
Not completely perfect, but you get the idea. Make user_root specific to each user and chroot them to it at login. Maybe make apps only contain a couple of links (like to browsers, music players, gimp, etc.) If you don't like the fs layout, symlinks are way easier than recompiling everything to a new layout.

Although the original auto-complete passwords idea was pointless (Mozilla already has username/password autofill on a form by form basis), this unstarring program would not have much luck with Mozilla. I'd bet the unstarring prog relies on MFC. Mozilla does not use native toolkits (at a form level) and I'm sure the unstarring prog does not have a special case for XUL/XBL.
Ensoniq AudioPCI ens1370 works great for me with multiple sound sources and everything. Under ALSA, it even supports full duplex (recording on line-in and outputting on speaker-out at the same time). Also, the line-in can be switched to another speaker-out, giving you four distinct sound sources, it's not 5.1 but for a card that cost $20 in 1998, that's pretty good. None of this is specific to ALSA 9.x either, I've been using ALSA and this card since ALSA 4.x.
There were ~20 people in Denver. We protested in front of the Federal Courthouse on 19th and Stout. I think there would have been a better turnout if the EFF hadn't unofficially canceled it. A lot of people were really responsive, but it's a hard issue to explain on the sidewalk.
Finally there will be some competition among tv providers. In my area this will mean Qwest versus AT&T. This was needed to match the cable phone service that AT&T is going to be offering soon. Lets hope they stay balanced, those are the only two signal-quality wires that go to alot of peoples houses.
Right now it just looks like a 3d chat enviroment. This could have a lot of potential, but it will be very difficult to approach the productivity of the command line.
A lot of people have never even heard of such a tld. Even among those of us who have, the procedure for acquiring such a domain name is not widely known. Perhaps clearing some of the red tape would help?
i live in colorado and as far as the local papers have reported, this law has never seen an actual court case. it's pretty likely that it won't work (but if it did... ). and bwt, not trying to defend a republican or anything, but it's Gov. Owen_s_.
Depending on the license they released it under, I doubt you would want to reuse any of it. Not to mention that it's pretty old and there are lots of GPL'd equivilents (that don't use cold fusion). A quick search on freshmeat turns up 17 different web based forums and I'd bet that's only a small amount of the ones availiable.
Am I missing something? does this Allaire system have some special feature?
I have a deskjet 812 and it works (only with ghostscript), but the color looks like crap. My dad has a lexmark that looks better (under windows). I have always assumed that deskjets look like crap in unix because there is no photoRET-type layer in the drivers. To use photoRET would involve some image pre-processing (nothing the gimp couln't handle) and some special subset of PCL. Hopefully this will change. As a side note: the gimp printer plugin has support for a lot of deskjet printers, I have heard that they provide much better color quality than the ghostscript drivers (unfortunately they don't work with my printer so I can't confirm this).
...I've had one of these boards for a year and a half, they support any socket 7 chip - from a p75 to a K6-3/600. Also includes support for SIMMs or DIMMs (DIMMs are much faster though). Bus master DMA and AGP 2X are supported as well.
Neither corporate nor government nor church intrest is for the people, but as you have pointed out they can have the side effect of helping us on occasion. The WTO has never done anything to help any of these groups except for the corporate. Corporate interest will quickly anger the people if it is not kept in check by governments. The WTO has the authority to override government interest (which is at least in a small part, the peoples interest) in the name of corporate profit. It's just bad news.
>>I can't even imagine a society that didn't operate on some having more political power than the majority.
That's really too bad. True enough it has never happened, but please try to imagine a truly socialist society. We all need something to strive for, regardless of the difficulty of actually implementing it.
The gap between the rich and the poor is ever-widening.
The WTO has the power to override national governments. That means that your precious Bill of Rights is out the window as soon as it gets in the way of profits. Enviromental protection laws are completly overrided as well. The WTO encourages child and slave labour - anything that keeps the rich of the world wealthy is encouraged by the WTO.

PI is working with the Xfree86 team on a hardware accelerated GLX module for Xfree 4.0. The support wasn't in the pre-release 3.9.15 but they said that it would be in an upcoming pre-release. The stuff that suse is working on is called MLX and it hasn't been updated in months but it still works(sorta, full screen only) on my Diamond FireGL 1000 pro.
