if you just mean the JVM, which I do believe an open source one is in the works, Chungles may be natively compilable with GCJ (i haven't checked)
I find samba (or rather the windows protocol) to be clunky, alot of times it lagged for no reason, shares didn't have reliable announcement cross-platform, and all around not fun to use.
because there was already bonjour (an OSS apple lib I believe) for very nifty fast multi-cast announcement of 'shares'.
well and Java makes it easy to have on most major desktop systems with SWT, so it currently will work on Mac OSX (powerpc) or Windows/Linux/BSD (typically x86/amd64) without really any code modifications.
it's also currently rather lightweight, last time i checked it only used 2megs or so of memory, even though it runs through the JVM.
if you respect your parents and have earned their trust and promise not to do something you don't do it.
the fear of losing that trust and them losing respect for you keeps you from breaking that promise.
if parented correctly, even a 10 year old should understand such a simple concept, and they make break that trust a couple times, but when they lose all privledges because the parents can't trust them and they have to work hard to gain that trust back, then they won't do it again.
there were actually 4 laws, one which the robots made up themselves later on.
it read long something of the lines of like "robots must protect humanity as a whole" and allowed them to kill some people in order to save humanity (though it did result in the robots destruction)
so the phone book should also be made illegal right?
and i suppose a blogger isn't allowed to publish their OWN personal information? as most blogs i have seen don't publish information on other private citizen's addresses, but rather their own.
Dr. Adrivan Melott said, "A gamma ray burst originating within 6,000 light years from Earth would have a devastating effect on life. We don't know exactly when one came, but we're rather sure it did come - and left its mark."
now yes they are just 'speculating' WHEN it hit, but the effects using computer models are probably decently accurate
and since the models show that it could have helped cause such problems to ocean life (both in killing off large amounts of the ozone layer and the upper levels of ocean life) it would make sense it put it around a time that such an event DID happen.
in some states she already does have a legal excuse.
many states outlaw sodomy, which is defined as basically any sex other than standard vaginal intercourse which is mostly oral and anal sex. Of course said laws never hold up in the court, but that doesn't mean they don't exist...
in a perfect world it would, but coins are much easier to lose than bills (oops! i dropped my $100 coin down the drain!) and coins are MUCH easier to counterfit than bills. a bill has all these cools anti-counterfit properties and is printed on special cloth-paper. while a coin is just...cast metal.
most of the equipment looks like it analyzes and stores information from the phones... if you actually RTFA and looked at the pictures would see a bunch of expensive equipment plugged into 4 different phones (one for each different company)
he doesn't have any special external antennas to boost the signal or skew the results.
the only possible thing i could think of is the phones may be getting a WORSE signal because they are all lying down inside of a metal case...
whoever receives a binary licesened under the GPL (and derivative works are still under the GPL) has the right to request/receive the source code.
then that receiver (who could have paid or not paid or whatever) has the right to redistribute that copy but are not 'obligated' to.
basically the company would only be obligated to give the source out to people it gave the binary out to (and possibly anyone who just managed to get their hands on the binary, including theft [accepting cases where it was in-house only and never sold and thus considered a trade secret]).
the only thing is i don't see how that's a viable buisness practice because ONE buyer could just release their version for free. i suppose the only way i see that as a viable buisness practice is selling a) support and b) new versions (and thus not caring if people give out your software and figuring that they'll just buy it anyway to support you)
you have to remember they are a (primarily?) US company... if you want something like that for your country, maybe a company in your country should do it...
they use it as a personal identification number (which it isn't supposed to be used as but since everyone has a unique one it makes it easy for them to do it).
I don't think it will be violating the first admendment, as the list isn't automatically used nor is it forced upon anyone (or everyone).
Since everything seems to be entirely voluntary for the end-persons who do the actual triggering of the blocking it's not really censoring, it'd be like saying ad-blocking software violates advertisers rights to free speech =)
I feel for all the poor young teen males this might effect though (at least the non-computer tech savvy ones)
Slashdot Mirror
Hey, I resemble that remark!
(ok, I just graduated yesterday so I don't quite fit the dropout bit, so sue me)
just a note, last time I checked chungles barely took 2 megs of ram when I used a build from CVS.
the general film audience likes character development?
i thought they just liked explosions and sex.
Just a note, Chungles is pretty much Alpha so the file transfer stuff just got put in, I doubt it'll be as fast as it will be in the end.
if you just mean the JVM, which I do believe an open source one is in the works, Chungles may be natively compilable with GCJ (i haven't checked)

they do get the publicity and, if they go to court and do something big, the fame for being the first real group to openly support FOSS projects.
then there wouldn't be any stories to read!
it's called trust and respect.
if you respect your parents and have earned their trust and promise not to do something you don't do it.
the fear of losing that trust and them losing respect for you keeps you from breaking that promise.

it's called sarcasm buddy.
;)
though insightful is kind of weird. i was thinking more along the 'funny' lines.
and usually it's 12 year olds 'bonking' 12 year olds these days
old enough to bleed
old enough to breed.

i thought Red Hat did fedora...
i thought they just made their 'red hat' distro enterprise-only
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=sodomy
sodomy
n.
Any of various forms of sexual intercourse held to be unnatural or abnormal, especially anal intercourse or bestiality.
which can be a blowjob dear fellow.
i think it's more that most slashdot geeks are also goons.
excepting myself, i've seen something awful devour too many souls to give in =)

from what i understand this is how it works.
whoever receives a binary licesened under the GPL (and derivative works are still under the GPL) has the right to request/receive the source code.
then that receiver (who could have paid or not paid or whatever) has the right to redistribute that copy but are not 'obligated' to.

you are a strong man indeed to be able to live without homestarrunner and albinoblacksheep!
you have to remember they are a (primarily?) US company...
if you want something like that for your country, maybe a company in your country should do it...
they use it as a personal identification number (which it isn't supposed to be used as but since everyone has a unique one it makes it easy for them to do it).
they don't NEED to but they CAN and so they do.
I don't think it will be violating the first admendment, as the list isn't automatically used nor is it forced upon anyone (or everyone).
