Im a big GNU fanatic and i must admit i could do with a shower.. busy working,actualy don't have time for one right now , i compare the stench level directly with the ammount of work i put in;)
Protest with you skill , if i find an advertiser who uses any type of ad i find abusive on a site , i inform the site admin and use ad-block on firefox to block objects from the ad-server (for the worst offenders i have my router redirect traffic) till the situation is sorted.i get many many faviourable responses from the admins,naturaly.
Not that i am so convinced that this is fraud , i imagine it would be a contract issue as i cant for the life of me think where else this would be coverd in the law, so it is rather daft of them to do it if the contract specificaly states this is something they should not do .
i was hoping they would name the next OS X after me or atleast 10.6 i can just see it now OS X 10.6 Fidel-CATsro,my fans know i deserve it... cough dillusions aside . i wholy expect that by the time microsoft get around to releasing longhon that we will have long since evolved beyond the need for files or filesystems
if they are labeling them as samsumg memory then it is clearly illegal , if they are marking them as tested memory when it is not then it is clearly illegal. My understanding is that they are sellign these chips as untested memory and making no false claims about , there are only rumours that they are doing it.
if you go into a shop and pick up a chip like this that has been marked to deceptivly apear to come from another manufacturer, then please complain and bring it to the attention of the industry ombudsman and authorities.if you buy one of these chips it should make clear it is untested
your missing nothing , your only confusing the rumour with a fact
BeOS , it had file metadata support years ago and worked well with it. not to mention the other companys that have since been making products of this nature.in an MS vs apple fight since Tiger comes out in 10 days and longhorn comes out god knows when, its pretty one sided and apple wins hands down
wow , did you miss my point , yes funnily enough spouting the hackney RTFA dosn't work as i clearly did read it , what witht he quoting from it and arguing against it and all that , and was questioning this womans credability . and if you will notice i made it very clear that i disbelive that this is realy going on.

Futurama is another great example of a show that was canceled well before its time,season 4 was one of the best seasons.but it just cost too much aparently... god i hate fox...
;) i could play all the music from about every sonic game on keyboard if you give me 5 minutes to work it out , i didnt notice sonic was on the list .

Opera 8 Released
·
· Score: 1
I find it disgracefull that they would misrepresent opera like that. We all know opera has a far larger users base.. I think its up to around 12 or 14 now..
Ok seriously though , it was only a joke. Opera has a smaller comparitive user base , that dosn't take away from the fact that it is an excelent browser and is extremly efficent and fast(feels quick). It read to me as if it was a freindly ribbing not a dire troll from hell
Could have been many reasons , but i think they are probably right to do so. give star trek a rest for a few years and bring it out again and make a killing in the market (too much of a good thing.. you know). Im a long time Sci-fi fan and as much as i tried to love enterprise is was turning me a bit sour towards star trek , fair enough i respect the fact that alot of people did really love the show , i just thought it was worth the chop. So in about 5 years we can get a new , truely inovative star trek show that will shine to not only the hardcore fans but to the masses aswell.
That and i doubt they would want to hand star trek production over to a subsiduary news corp.
if you think monster cables are funky,You should see how fast firefox renders webpages on my 64 cpu cray machine , and my word procesor is really snappy.
That is very true , its also works the other way , i know alot of people who belive Just because something costs more that it will instantly mean its better , and don't bother to look for bargins(as in good/"aceptable for the task" quality for a good price. Its the same old problem of people being ill informed and stuborn.
I was about to say the exact same thing , This is capitalism in action.
If these chips sell to people under no false pretense about what they are and there is a market for them then what exactly are they doing wrong. If they are mislabeling them then yes that is very much illegal , but mostly they make no claim to this , If you want to risk buying these chips then fair enough. They are mostly not pirates though and labeling them that because they are undercutting other firms sounds like a dubious marketing ploy.
The major risk as I see it is a batch of modules gets into a major user (think IBM, H-P, and/or Dell) and fails (probably in Asia). The user goes publicly ballistic over the combination of faulty material and the supplier's inability to control the quality of its material. The press runs with it and the unlucky DRAM supplier's stock gets hammered. Some time afterward, it emerges that all the DRAM suppliers have this risk and then they all go down.
If this hapens then its the fault of the companys such as IBM,HP or dell for not testing these products before shipping , i very much doubt that IBM would fail to run a memory test before shipping a server though.
If as she says they are being sold as tested moduals then this is illegal and the practice can be stoped fairly easily and is no threat to the Semi conductor bussiness.
I think you sufferd a logical lapse , They never mentioned time indeed they both mention ammounts , it transfers at the rate of one million bites(or a megabit) at a time ( or transfer rate) not transfer speed,how long is anyones guess. Rate can mean ammount , IE the gouvernment rates or im on a middle tax bracket so am charged at the medium rate.
Actually last time i checked they were , At-least in the EU and the USA. They have two court orders(atleast) demanding that they open up there formats and APIs so we are all free to use them.
I loved the light cycles (and still do) but i can't for the life of me remember any of music from any tron game... I loved metal gear solid games too , again another game the music totaly slips my mind The same goes for warcraft and halo (except i didnt think halo was nearly as good as the other) These are almost all exceptional games with forgetable music. Im not saying they didn't have exceptional scores (insert pun here later about overrated scores as in points) i just don't really remember them. Games like The legend of zelda on the other hand are cemented in my memory alongside the music , Doom aswell and mario gamesetc
If you'r putting beta software on an enterprise server with 100000 served customers then i would fire you on the spot if i (were your boss) and noticed/had a system crash because of it.
Since when has it been aceptable to charge people money to beta test for you.. Im sorry but if you want me to beta test either a free beta with no obligations or pay me to test it for you. I am not paying for a product that is clearly still in the testing phases. To be fair i wouldnt normaly buy a microsoft product anyway , but that is not the point .
