Please define underage; Discovery Channel was pretty clear on it. Every man likes a girl between 14~16 with an optimal nose chin distance around that age. And why they like it, it seems to be a fertility indication. Fertility means reproduction, a good thing.
Now what is culturally defined as underage in the west has clearly nothing to do with: nature, or the personal feelings of the girls.
Since underage would be defined as anyone below 18, just shows the absurdity of it. If you don't believe girls ready for this at that age, please look at for example Africa, especially the life expectancy.
So when site owners can make their own rules/laws on their website, you are unable to browse anonymously we are going to make internet free. What a great coincidence.
In the paste I was not very impressed by things as http://www-graphics.stanford.edu/projects/brookgpu/ because of the latency that is involved in actually transferring data back and forth from CPU to GPU memory. Thus I observed the same thing.
But now it seems to the actual latency for transfer is reduced because of PCI-e, one might wonder if decent compiler technology is able to optimise 'normal' code for GPU instructions.
Now the fun of ZFS is that next to RAID-Z* it also has some nice snapshot send and receive features. So you could plugin your laptop and upon leaving, leave a snapshot of your work at another ZFS system has has many drives. Now that seems quite cool:)
Another reason could be just using the features of the filesystem such as quickly sharing an NFS export for a presentation. Or making a snapshot of your latest work. ZFS like for example GIT as versioning system bring very interesting 'offline/on-the-road' use-cases.
The integration that ZFS has to offer with xVM/Zones just proves the point that virtualisation is also available if you want it to. So yes you can use KVM/VirtualBox/Xen/VMware on your laptop, but as far from integration with the base OS, OpenSolaris has nifty features.
Personally I run Linux on all but one system. That one system runs my cluster storage on OpenSolaris.
England is a part of Great Britain, which is part of the United Kingdom. Like 'Holland' people probably use 'England' because it was the most important province for trading.
But then again, so does every 3D program. I suspect it has something to do with 3D artists wanting job security or something...
Maybe you were joking, but if I think about this comment for more than one second you might actually have a point. But, the amount of architect/civil engineering students switching from *CAD to SketchUp cannot be ignored. Not because of the price but actually because of the ease of usage. So not every 3D program sucks, but maybe programs try to do all in one. Like Blender with all its modi, now you can produce a complete movie in one program... I saw the demonstration of this I love Sketch, and really, if this can bring SketchUp for Free Hand design, it actually has a good use to replace/enhance something. Things that were done in Illustrator, Xara, (Inkscape) in vector graphics can now be done in 3D, that sounds really cool to me.
True, but only a capitalist way of thinking. First they want contracts really bad. Then the artists are going to wine about those same contracts. If you don't like your contract break it up, and act like it, don't give away your rights for quick fixes. Or act like an employee, like any other employee get paid once for your work.
Basically what they want it to act as entrepreneurs for their own music and try to grab more crowd. While the label might be carefully planning the releases of different artists to get them as much exposure on the old fashioned, time sharing media, like radio and television.
I really find it hard to accept that a company that around 5 years ago copied GPL code in many of their stuff made such a 180 turn and is now with full commitment in actually supporting the stuff that they have been copying for so long. The motives behind it and better: who was able to make this shift possible from inside the company, hiring an OpenSource devver is one, but the process before that is much more interesting.
400kbit doesn't say anything. Are we talking about video bitrate, total bitrate or what?
Lately I was sending my holiday video (very much motion) and it looked so poor, blocky, in WMV and likes, while in SNOW it was smooth.
The idea about wavelet is that with highres input you can scale. So there is not really a thing as 'target resolution' as there is with non-wavelet variants. Xiph has Tarkin as experimental stuff, I just thing SNOW and Dirac are both more suited to be placed vs H264 than Theora will be.
It is old technology there are better alternatives that were free earlier. I would even support Ogg Tarkin more than Theora! Dirac (BBC), SNOW (Michael, FFMPEG) are by far better alternatives (wavelet) and they support lossless coding. That is what we want, especially for future generations.
Theora has always been overrated. Now with the C implementation of Dirac and the hardware implementations that existed before there is no reason to still use Theora. Next to this anyone having directshow filters have Dirac or SNOW embedded (I think they are both enabled now), likewise for ffmpeg/avcodec users.
I think the point is pretty clear. Atheros realises that it might be cheaper, in the long run, to add a memory chip to the chipset that contains a firmware, than actually uploading it everytime or using a wintel solution to control the hardware in a way that the FCC stays happy.
Then why not use a good handscanner? When I played with them 10 years ago the only issue was the data transfer rate over the LPT port, not the 'poor image quality'.
The person that gave its opinion did nothing more than broadcasting this into the world, under freedom of speech. The only group who took something was the Chinese government, the freedom to gather information. Don't turn over the world because you think censoring any information is the right thing to do so.
Other governments currently have nothing to hit China with because of economics, I wonder what we could do to actually put an embargo on information going to China, this will end up in a flaim again, but I agree with the commenter above, just block all traffic to China if we really have to, to make people care about censorship.
Thanks for the flame A. Coward, I hope you can contact me under your normal account, I'll send you the mailinglists that get my special attention, and where I base my (bad) judgment on.
You say that the entire AXIS2 libraries are maintained by INDIAN coders, now I don't want to be a smartass but looking at the team I see some pretty non-Indian sounding names out there. (It is probably pointless to say that I am avoiding Java as much as I can, and didn't notice this effort. It might also be true that I'm avoiding Apache as much as I can, but that is offtopic here)
Refering to the 'funny' characters that was refering to footnotes and 'names' in the from field. Now you mentioned a project an Indian university works on, do you also have a big sourceforge project that is ran by lets say 'a Chinese university'? Just to add them to my radar...
Who is "we"? If "we" is the Slashdot readership, then clearly some of "us" care, since some portion of Slashdot readers are in China, and/or use/contribute to Sourceforge. We are the users that don't have governments that limits this particular use of encryption technology or information exchange.
I'm sorry if I've misinterpreted this question, but on the face of it, it seems racist. It is funny how factual difference in culture and expectation always be banned with racism. That sounds like FUD. Please inform yourself by reading at least 10+ mailinglist every day and the questions asked by our 'fellow' open source 'users' particularly coming from the east. It isn't difficult to recognize Chinese letters (the funny characters), or an Indian/Pakistan name. Western individuals usually ask 'smart' questions, now sadly, the amount of 'smart' questions I saw coming from Asia in these years can I count on one hand. I receive every day around 150 emails worth of mailinglist mail. Now that becomes statistically relevant over the years. So don't flame me because I comment something that more people see.
"Chinese projects"? You do realize that Chinese people use the same kinds of software as everyone else, right? And that Chinese coders can (and do) contribute to the same open-source projects as everyone else, right? I'm talking about Chinese founded projects. Open Source that it. For @$@($&*@ I'm even the author of the SpeakGoodChinese project, why am I defending myself?! (The amount of volunteers living in China to that project was 0, zero, NULL... and not because we didn't ask!)
... but why should the open-source community be happy that a government firewall is fracturing the community? I cannot be bothered anymore by patent issues from the USA or the great firewall in China. If someone doesn't like it, please get your migration card or vote for another president... Time is better spend in coding something useful. If the government things that I cannot access my favorite site anymore *HELL YES* I would move.
Why would we care if a utility site like Sourceforge is blocked? These kind of things influence the China based companies that want to use open source utilities directly. People get annoyed, annoyed people complain. It saves us the hassle of providing the network traffic to that country, and do we really want to answer 'Chinese' informed questions? I wonder how much Chinese projects are hosted on Sourceforge...

The mechanics of the above can be done very easy in clutter toolkit :)
I know them only from a much bigger thing: Clutter.
Is the MMX version already ported to AMD64?

Workarounds are no solutions.
