Gates and Jobs are both ruthless entrepreneurs, who basically stole total control of their companies from their co-founders, Allen and Wozniak while they were sick/injured. Though Jobs was kicked out for around 10 years.
Don't forget that both Apple and Microsoft of them are in the BSA, which fines companies millions of dollars each year for licensing issues.
I consider Jobs to be far more principled and innovative... and by that I mean totally insane with his war again buttons.
I do like the rest of the OS X interface though. Apple has been kinder to the open source community than Microsoft, but that is probably due to the fact that Apple has far more open source code in their system than Microsoft.
They should make the Latin translation of GPL and BSD licenses the standard. It's a nice old language that no one really adds words or meanings to. I think that'll fix the gratis/libre issue. If it worked for the Catholic Church, it should work for the rms...
OpenBSD was using GCC as their default compiler until just a few years ago. They, however, wanted a BSD/ISC licensed C-compiler, so they got an ancient open-source one and started hacking it to get it up to modern C standards. They also wanted a secure compiler, since OpenBSD is all about security, and GCC is way too complex to figure out all the possible security issues that might pop up.
Things like converting glucose to ATP in the body achieve ~70% efficiency.
Glucose to ATP using glycolysis followed by cellular respiration using the electron transport, the most efficient process, is only about 40% efficient. The rest of the energy is released as heat, which is good for warm blooded creatures like ourselves. In babies, the brown fat makes cellular respiration even less efficient, which keeps them warm.
Read the bolded text over there to your left. It says Apple, not OS X. Safari is made by Apple, and is needed for the attack. Most Windows users didn't even know what Safari was until it became part of an Itunes update, which was decided by... you guessed it, APPLE.
Don't forget, Firefox/Gecko penetration is a lot lower on Windows than in Mac OS X. Windows users generally don't change their browsers from Internet Explorer.
This project will come out to be like 300 billion dollars in today's money. I'm pretty sure the sand isn't good for the maglev mechanisms either, so it would need high ridership just to cover the maintenence costs. On the other hand, this is probably the only area that this project would be possible. The Boston-Washington metropolitan axis is too densely populated to support maglev construction. Just buying the land here to build it would cost in the tens of billions, and I'm sure most towns wouldn't want it passing through, and wouldn't zone it.
If you have it compiled into mplayer, all you need to do is type -vo aa for black and white ascii art using AAlib, or -vo caca for colored ascii art using libcaca. Personally, I find the black and white ascii art to be more watchable.
VLC subtitle support doesn't follow the SSA/ASS specifications at all. It essentially converts it into an srt file, and tries to play it. AAC audio with high-profile h.264 video in a Makrosta wrapper with ASS subtitles is the current standard in the anime fansubbing world. VLC not only renders the subtitles stripped of all styling, but since it is optimized for video streaming, it drops frames like crazy. The combination of these two issues leads "n00b leechers" to complain to the fansubbers, which annoys them greatly. This, and other encoding issues lead to the formation of CCCP, which attempted to standardize what people use to watch fansubs, and also provides a single location for fansubbers to send leechers for encoding support. I believe that CCCP only uses Free software, making it somewhat unusual in DirectShow filter packs.
Anyways, last year, an anime fansubber found that VLC would not render lines with more than 256 characters. Therefore he created a script that would put hundreds of characters into bracketed comments after each line. VSfilter, the DirectShow subtitle renderer on Windows, and libass, the renderer that is part of mplayer, would ignore bracketed comments. VLC, however, tried to render the contents of the brackets, and the bug was triggered, and no subtitles were displayed.
After the script was tested in a GIANT ROBOT ANIME, much hilarity ensued. Eventually driven by complaints, a VLC developer came by and claimed they lack the developing manpower to implement a subtitle renderer. However, the "excess length" bug was patched within a week. Maybe TI money will provide them with the developer resources to actually implement a ASS/SSA renderer.
I am an Archlinux user right now... but if you listed all these on the IQ test from yesterday, and asked me what doesn't belong in the group, I would right Archlinux. They compared X booting live-cd distributions to Archlinux. Maybe he should try FaunOS?
I'm too lazy to google or read the article, but have they ever cloned a EXTANT marsupial? Marsupial have a very weird development scheme compared to placental mammals, which have been cloned successfully.
This is so websites that embed the "illegal" video in their website don't get stuck with a broken link. This allows Google to make more advertising revenue off of the video.
Over 50% of desktop Linux users use a Debian-based distro. My virtual hosting plan at Dreamhost uses Debian. Dell sells computers with a Debian-based distro installed. I'm pretty sure there are many companies that will support and administer Debian installations, as I know there is for FreeBSD, a slightly older operating system.
I don't use Debian on my computer, but it's definitely not dying.

Verses of Quran and Hadeeth prescribe punishments for various sins that are also crimes to society. Islamic lawmaking scholars interpreted them to expand punishments to crimes that were not directly defined in said texts. The Quran has about half the text of your average college textbook, and largest unified collection of Hadeeth is about the size of Encyclopedia Britannica, but has a high level of repetition as it documents differences what people heard the Prophet say. Neither are totally about sins and laws. People major in this stuff in college, so its grossly outside of the scope of Slashdot, especially a Scientology post.
Read the original texts objectively or believe what you want. Islam freely gives them to you, unlike Scientology. Or believe the hearsay, if you want to.
Not Quranic in origin. It is found in the Hadeeth, which a compilation of things that Muhammad said and did that were not the words of God directly given to him via the angel Gabriel. It has a similar route of transmission as the New Testament.
Volume 1, Book 2, Number 17:
Narrated 'Ubada bin As-Samit:
who took part in the battle of Badr and was a Naqib (a person heading
a group of six persons), on the night of Al-'Aqaba pledge: Allah's
Apostle said while a group of his companions were around him, "Swear
allegiance to me for:
1. Not to join anything in worship along with Allah.
2. Not to steal.
3. Not to commit illegal sexual intercourse.
4. Not to kill your children.
5. Not to accuse an innocent person (to spread such an accusation
among people).
6. Not to be disobedient (when ordered) to do good deed."
The Prophet added: "Whoever among you fulfills his pledge will be
rewarded by Allah. And whoever indulges in any one of them (except the
ascription of partners to Allah) and gets the punishment in this
world, that punishment will be an expiation for that sin. And if one
indulges in any of them, and Allah conceals his sin, it is up to Him
to forgive or punish him (in the Hereafter)." 'Ubada bin As-Samit
added: "So we swore allegiance for these." (points to Allah's
Apostle)

And if any of you Turn back from their faith and die in unbelief, their works will bear no fruit in this life and in the Hereafter; they will be companions of the Fire and will abide therein. Apostasy laws in the Sharia are a bad interpretation of this. You are basically damned to hell by the basic pillars of Islam, so punishment in this world won't lessen the punishment. Most punishments in the Qu'ran, if accepted as the will of God, will lessen the punishment for the sin in the hereafter.
So Firefox is going to get Microsoft Bob or Clippy? I already hate awesomebar, but now they want to either save important private information on 3rd party servers or integrate itself with my OS?:\
Good thing I'm using Konqueror4 to write this... If the Mozilla people are reading this, give Firefox better KDE integration.
Sunni Muslims lack any religious organization outside of the local level. And the Imam is just some dude (never a dudette) the community paid to study religious books and guide the community on religious matters. Shi'a Muslims do have complex religious organizations vested with power supposedly from divine law, which is why Sunni Muslims think they are weird.
In the end thought, both groups focus their worship on Allah, who is very not human.
