Huh? All you need to do is write a cgi script that grabs the random number from a bank login page and displays it as part of a fake login page, then uses the response the mark puts in while redirecting them to a "failed" page.
Well, I wouldn't expect my CPU to be doing 640x480 either. Higher resolution would give a better approximation of real life. No hardware acceleration would make it more of a pure cpu test, which should make the effects more obvious. (Part of me's surprised they saw any changes at all at 640x480, unless it was an ai-heavy game). The 640x480 benchmark is neither realistic nor a good test of CPU.
You asked "why not use them as the basic frame work for 3 movies." I know it's possible to get something good from bad source material e.g. the chronicles of riddick game, but it's a lot better to start from something good.
Not that I condone not paying for medical care, but there's a huge difference between deliberately killing something and not giving it expensive medical care.
If apple sell the OS separately, it could kill the paid-for friendly linucies like xandros, because you can buy something friendlier for the same system. Of course, we don't know whether apple will do that or not.
I don't think so. At 640x480 the vid card can probably handle everything all by itself. You need to put a big load on it so that the work has to run on the cpu since the vid card can't do it all itself.
Best thing would be to use a card with no hardware acceleration at all. Not sure where you'd find such a beast though. Perhaps you could use a game where you have a choice of renderers, and make sure it's switched to software?
But either way, you're not any worse with a bigger res, and might well be more accurate.
There was that "open source detector" program featured on slashdot recently, but it's fairly expensive for an individual developer. I'd say leave it up to your users, if people care then they will report the violations and you can tell the company to stop. Most of them will since they haven't a leg to stand on if it goes to court.
Yes, there is a reason for it. The original MS-DOS didn't have directories and used / for command-line switches where unix uses - (e.g. copy/b or dir/p). When MS-DOS 2 came out with directory support, they wanted to stay compatible (so you could use batch files from DOS 1, etc.) but with the primitive state of the applications back then, using / as both the command switch thing and directory separator would confuse them, so MS decided to use \ as the directory separator instead.
A good prequel (and they do exist) always does that. Like with Romeo and Juliet, just because you know what's going to happen doesn't mean there can't be a good story about it.
Not with KDE. If it's a KAction (which if it appears as a button and a menu item it almost certainly is) it's available through DCOP for you to script it.

So you wouldn't allow a robot to try and save someone's life if it hadn't been designed to do that?
The website may well just be some zombie home computer.

Cuba is "vegetating" at a better level than the countries around it, and that's with an enormous embargo in place.
How do you know they would still have collapsed if they weren't busy fighting an underground war and overt big-weapon contest?
Obviously some people, otherwise they would have gone bankrupt.
But then /b could legitimately mean you wanted to copy the file b in the current directory.
Point, but in your typical FPS the graphics are the biggest chunk of the processing (though the physics is getting more and more important)

I was just going by what I'd read in the jargon file.

Hard disks break much more when spinning up or down than while running

Because A) they're not that good B) they're not really conclusive.

OMG plane rush lamer

If you're always with them why do you need yahoo to get rid of the chatrooms?
I think it just means all children are entitled to not be deliberately killed.

That's what distcc is for. Compile stuff for your P-90 with the faster boxes on your network.
