Assuming that the hypervisor technology in the xbox360 is really the IBM hypervisor, than the linux community could have access to the patents involved in this technology, making it a lot easier (as in really tough job to in just a bit less realy tough job) to get linux running on the xbox. Maybe it is possible to run it in a VM under xbox windows (I guess internally in microsoft this might be called xwindows).
Dutch pot I think. It is the closest place where they can get the stuff legal, and as long as they smoke it in the smoke zones on Schiphol, nobody will stop them. Oh, wait a moment: UK is not in Schengen, have to pass douane before entering the airport lobby. Better smoke it at the trainstation adjacent to the airport then. No problem, just again, stay in the designated smoking areas.
And yes, being happy with a computer virus is complete madness.
Enterprise editions are effectivily free too. Redhat, SuSE ea just have to keep the GPL. The software on the enterprise editions is mainly GPL software, or other opensource license software. The idea behind the enterprise editions is not the software, but the support model.
The non-free response was a response on the/. article header.
Some, notably SUSE and Ubuntu, also worked well on our test notebook -- which might surprise those who think of Linux as purely a desktop or server OS.
I have used several laptops with several linux distros (Slackware,Debian,SuSE), and they all worked OK. Definition of OK is: You are able to tweak your kernel and your X server, and you are totally OK. New versions of the distros pretty much install without a glitch on any of the systems I have standing around here (dual PII, PIII, PIV, laptop). So that remark about the laptop is pretty redundant in my opinion.
I am using SuSE 10 with KDE. Hardware support is great compared to v9, configuration works great, and downloaded it all for free from the SuSE ftp website. So where does the non-free part come in? Support? Also for SuSE there are user forums, not much different than Ubuntu, or about any other linux distro for that matter.
The legislator clearly left the enforcement in the hands of the companies in this case. It is a bad law, but you will need a revolution to get it taken down. There is no real democratic proces in place anymore to stop companies requesting and getting this kind of law. Early American governments and presidents are turning in their graves in shame for this kind of actions.

How about predators who live on mosquitos. Malaria and westnile can be killed by just taking away the Tiger (? Only this one, or also some others) mosquito. Other mosquitos might be annoying, but they do not transmit diseases.
They will most likely suffer all from the same (protocol) bugs, be vulnerable for the same attacks and ultimately be virus compatible. Diversity is good. Lets just have two or three major operating systems in the future, probably running the same applications, but not on exactly the same code base on a nice interactivity layer.
I meant weapons which are easy to find like in Doom your fists or the simple handgun. Never able to find the rocket launcher to do some real damage, because people like Fatal1ty will already have that weapon before I am ever able to get near to it.
Anyway: I just get dizzy from the way he plays that kind of game. Never standing still. I think the game makers should make it impossible to keep jumping and bouncing around all the time. Make it a bit more realistic. Maybe than I will stand a small chance again (small I said, not real chance, small chance).
I think the mental problems is partially an excuse invented by the people with normal intelligence (100) to 100+2x standard deviation (about 136). IQ is a standard deviation test afterall. For the last decades the 100 line has been shifting up compared to the previous years. The general IQ is rising. That means people with an IQ above 140 2 decades ago, now with recalibration of the tests will score about 5 points lower (stats out of memory). Thus being considered a genius is relative. Most of the associated mental problems come from non-understanding the high IQ people. In general higher IQ does not only mean you can do the test good, but also that reasoning works on a higher level, so you will take bigger logic steps and people with lower IQ will loose you along the way.
In a way people with an IQ of 100 look really intelligent from the point of view of a person with an IQ of 80 (definition: Still able to care for him or herself, probably even having their own company and not really get noticed by others), let stand from a person with an IQ of 60, for whom the world is a big miracle all the time. They can not follow the logic of this IQ 100 people, but they are gullible enough just to do what they are told. People with an IQ of 100 are just not as gullible as people with an IQ of 60-80. They rather claim that you do not communicate well, it is easier than trying to understand, and than coming to the conclusion that they can not grasp the concepts what you are talking about. Cultivation of people with high IQ is important for science. And science contains all possible directions from politics/management (Average IQ of a CEO is 150, do they communicate so bad? (Ok, Enron did)) to quantum physics (Stephen Hawking is pretty understandable).
I think in short that a person with normal IQ who communicates poorly is just considered an ***hole or just considered dumb, while a person with high IQ who communicates poorly is considered socially inept. Same problem, just the IQ is different.

If the mouse is daring enough, some cats do not know what to do with it. It has to do with the way they are programmed to hunt. The same pretty much goes for wolves too: If the prey faces them, they will be put off for a moment trying to decide what to do. Once the prey starts running, they act again as they are programmed too: Follow it and kill it.
According to his Software COmpany, they are still going strong. Just remember, they already demanded the 2.7 linux kernel code from IBM. They will soon go after other companies working on this secret code branch:
- Novell, you know, the compagny who actually owns the patents SCO is sueing IBM about.
- slackware: Infringing on it since the previous millenium, so more than 1000 years already
- Users: What the RIAA can do, we can do too! You run linux at home, we will sue you!
The old and the new server both run linux very easily, so the transition from one CPU to the next is getting easier and easier if you just switch OS first.
Using SuSE with KDE on daily basis, sometimes somebody notices it, and then just does not understand how I am able to open all the Microsoft documents and how I can mail them MS docs. I have worked like this for 5 years now, no problems at all (ok, some tweaking needed in the past, but nowadays it is really boring, everything just works).
This is very usefull. Suppose you have a system where IE is heavily infected with spyware, but you do have a firefox installed. At least you can leave IE unused to get some of the necessary service packs for your windows system by using this alternative browser. Everytime I use firefox on windows to help somebody out, I still have to start IE to use the Microsoft tools to update a part of the system. The rest of the Microsoft site always worked very good in mozilla anyway (at least, I never ran into any problems, then again I am running linux fulltime since 2000, and before that 50% of the time, so I am probably not the most representitive user of the Microsoft website)
Small amounts of coffee just do not do the trick. With about 5 cups of coffee in the morning, I am active untill 16:00 in the afternoon. With about 8 cups, I make it till 19:00. Decaf is just for the taste of coffee with the cafeine effect. Drinking coffee just for the taste is pretty useless. I think people like coffee because of the caffeine. For me coffee is certainly an acquired taste, mainly through the way to sweet frapuchinos/frapiatos from Starbucks et al..

It has to do with the hot air for sure.....
Feel worse! I never make people feel better.
You are correct (-: However, install SuSE 9.2 and you will get the absolutele feeling of unintegrated for once (-:
Luckily 10.0 is good again.
About trust: Add "I trust Patrick Volkerding" for me to the list.
