Compiz shifts most of the work for the window manager to the graphics card from the CPU, which probably explains why it got such good performance. Perhaps he should limit his graphics card too and see if he gets such good results before we all start championing how great KDE 4.0 is.
If I remove DRM from a file on my computer such as a MP3 I'm also breaching the DMCA, this isn't very different. Can we have less knee jerk reactions from slashdot over anything that remotely looks like we can complain about the DMCA? Articles like this just make us look bad and uninformed.
By viewing child porn online he would have either have to purchase it or view a ton of ads which then pay the owners of the website, both which support future child porn being made.
0day isn't a some recent made up word, it's a very useful one to distinguish between whether the bug that the exploit is leveraging is publicly known or not. It is used alot by anyone in the security industry on both sides of the trench.
I have a friend whom I played WoW with (he still does) and he used to buy about 1000 gold each month.
He didn't buy gold to get better gear (except for his epic mount but thats another story) but rather he put that gold into his guild every time by buying Fire resist pots, healing pots and mana pots and giving them out to everyone for free so they could push forward in one of the end-game instances. He also passed on alot of gear (in the end game instance) to give to other members of his class if he felt they needed it more.
Not all gold buyers are greedy jerks trying to get the edge on you.
You still have to suffer like that because your only paying $15 a month as you said. What can you buy for $15 that lets you have an awesome online experience with countless others, make new friends there, battle giant monsters solo or with a team of up to 39 others and generally being able to kick the ass of others.
$15 for a month of play? Seems like you can put up with a bit of waiting and slight lag for that price. Anyway, if you think you have bad lag, try play it from anywhere thats not in.us or.europe.
Not only all of that, but if you flatten them out and roll em up you can smoke them! The bufotoxin is a powerful hallucinogenic so if you don't die you'll trip pretty hard. Apparently.
Just out of curiousity, please reply to this comment stating which game console you are going to buy and if this rootkit has changed your decision.
I initially was going to wait for PS3 but now I am boycotting Sony and will be getting a 360 in a week or so.
Oh definatly get a 360. Microsoft has such a flawless history.
"Critics heralded the bulk of the existing law, but said the sunsets were wisely inserted amid the inflamed passions following the September 11 attacks, and should be retained to assess the long-term impact of the law."
So when did 2 weeks right after terrorist attacks in London killing 56 people, and a couple of hour after four more attacks (even though they were dud's) didn't count for inflamed passions or at least some biase. If you ask me, all the people that claim there will be a terrorist attack before X because it will help push things along for party Y don't so sound crazy any more.
I'm pretty sure i'm not going to me making a load of cash when I finish my CS degree. Infact, my girlfriend doing fine arts majoring in textiles is probably going to me making more than me in the future being a clothes buyer for a major store.
But money is definatly not why I got into this field. I love working with computers and i've really been enjoying my degree. It's one of the few degree's that has a broad choice of subjects, that you can do since it is primarily a science degree majoring in computers. You can have a second major in physics or maths or any other science related field. My broad 3rd + 4th year subject choices are also very cool, from ai and neural networks to robot design and microcontrollers. No other course lets you choose from such a broad range of subjects making it an extremely flexible degree, which is also excellent if you are doing a double degree. If I wanted to, I can tailor my CS degree to almost exactly mimic whats in the Software engineering degree or Computer Engineering degree offered by my uni.
"Most of these attacks are against fringe industries -- online gambling, online computer gaming, online pornography -- and against offshore networks."
"it is quit amusing to watch what seems to be one kind of filth devouring another."
Gamer's arn't filth! Well, maybe there are a little filthy from not showering *every*week, but not actual filth!

How can they possibly be serious? Judging from the average weight of people at a LUG...
Put it like this, if they didn't come back with anything because they ommited the 'molehills' and just said "Your network is fine, nothing to report" do you think they would keep their firm going for very long? They have to make mountains out of these things to make it look like they are actually doing their job.

Necessity if the mother of all invention, and what greater necessity is there than life and death in war or disasters.

Gives another meaning to 'Penetration testing'.
I didn't know that we were fighting back those aliens still, especially with the help robo shark and his laser eyes.
Well at least they don't have to go to insecure.org anymore now that slashdot has posted the url for nmap.
