I think you misunderstand me. What I mean is, at what point do you become confident what you are saying is in the public interest enough to take it to a newspaper regardless of the NDA. Someone somewhere else raised the suggestion of a company getting its supplies from cheap third-world labour, but making its employees sign an NDA about it. That's the sort of thing I think the public ought to know, but with this ruling, would anyone be confident enough to take it to a paper?
Have you seen the Mars rover pictures? A lot of them are VL with near-infrared, if you look at the "colour wheel" on the rover you get a reasonable idea of its effects. Basically it makes things look redder, with a few things being surprisingly a lot brighter or darker but mostly the same.

Real player is the only one out of real, windows media and quicktime which is available for Linux. So you're not likely to get anything better.
They weren't open source is why they went under. Gnutella is still out there and going strong while other networks from the same era are collapsing, because the source is available. Napster and Kazaa both got in trouble when they started filtering things, because that showed they could have filtered out copyright infringing stuff. That can't happen with bittorrent, because the software is open source and there is no central server.
I could get an old G3 iMac motherboard for $75.00. It wouldn't be as small and it wouldn't be as fast. It wouldn't have as much memory or anything like that. But it would be cheaper.
With hard drives and stuff to make it a proper booting system? And would it be nearly as fast or nowhere near?
So I'm a little lost. Are you saying that you can get less machine for less money? I think the proper response, in that case, is "Duh."
He's saying he can get almost as much machine for 1/3 the money, which is worth saying.
Doesn't look so good, since it relies on a user-specified password and doesn't seem to hash it, making dictionary attacks too easy. In theory it should be secure enough, but in practice relying on the user to pick a random password isn't enough. With user-specified passwords like this known plaintext attacks, particularly on the first message sent, are very effective. Since "Hi" is likely to be the start of most instant messaging conversations, I don't think this will be secure enough for casual users.
I'd have thought she could look through the menus. On my system the kde menus give a description of the app first, like "CD Burning (K3b)". So she doesn't need to know she wants k3b, she just needs to look for a cd burning program. And really, how hard is it to learn? Other than the qt look and feel, which can be set to look pretty windowslike if you select "windows" in the friendly introductory wizard, it's laid out almost exactly the same way as nero.
Well, early in my copy of the manpage, it says "The cdrecord utility is a utility capable of burning an actual disc. The latest version of cdrecord is available from ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord". I thought the entry on -I was pretty clear, especially since the entry on -J just a few paragraphs down explains that that's the option to use for joliet. And if I look at the cdrecord manpage, it tells me pretty early on to use cdrecord dev=HELP to see how I'm allowed to access devices.
Is saying this the new way to get a cheap +5? I see at least 6 posts like this and yet I can't see any of the posts they are complaining about. Maybe they're all at -1, but even so, by this stage aren't they redundant rather than insightful?
Not really. They're equivalent to a guy who will give any brown box you ask to someone else you ask with no questions asked, just charge you a bit for it. They were slimy and evil (they actually had the nerve to takedown Kazaa Lite for copyright infringment) but I don't think they were necessarily doing anything illegal.
They earn it from all the bundled spyware. So they do have quite a bit, and the RIAA will get as much of it as they can. But the execs are probably safe, yes.
But where are you confident of the line? Are you going to risk being sued by saying anything at all to a magazine? Unless there is a clear and present danger to the public, I don't think you are.
No, but it means your anonymity is at risk where there is immoral practices going on under an NDA. After all, you are technically breaking the law, and your employer technically isn't.

Yeah...because no one would worry about someone pointing a telescope into people's apartments.
Well, gnome's even uglier :)
So, in another age, were the writers of many of the FTP utilities we use today.

Well, and replace it with one to block visible light. But yes, that's about it.
It did. It's only alive because it comes with every CD burner sold. Seriously.
There's a rule over here that conditions have to have equal prominence, which means the same font size. It's rarely enforced, but it does exist.

wxWindows is lgpl, remember?

Yes, but if you have already paid for it, *you don't lose your money by migrating*. Which should make it easier to migrate people.
Really. It doesn't matter that k3b looks nicer and does the same thing, they're more comfortable knowing it's the same program available on linux.
Not really, but it's one less thing for new users to worry about. I welcome this in the same way I welcome realplayer on linux.

How can you prove that this scan does not remove some spyware from some people?
No, they just didn't defend themselves well enough. Or were wrongfully convicted.
