Traditionally, the first move to create a "capitalistic" economy is to take away the posibility of subsistence farming. It has happened in the west too. If you allow me to bring Marx here, this is part of the "primitive accumulation of capital"...
Easy solution: the scientists should agree to undergo an interview in which they would be asked if they have proof of what they are saying. A lie detector provided by this Nemesys Co. would then detect if they are lying or not.

Just run apt-get update && apt-get install acpi-support.
BS. That blog article you mention starts with: "JavaFX for Linux and Solaris is coming. Chill."... Chill... take it easy... they have released what they have and they'll soon release the rest.
More BS: You don't need anything to see the JavaFX demos, of course, you need at least Java 6u10 (I think). But JavaFX runtime is downloaded automatically.
For a great many of us, Slackware is in the past, a nice and good past. Don't close your eyes to reality. And... Slashdot is a coffe table for chatting friendly among tech types... You came here to learn? You must be new here... =)

Slackware 12.2 Released
·
· Score: 4, Informative
I started with Slackware, from my memories, Slackware is from a time when "distribution" had another meaning. The idea was: "here, I compiled the main stuff for you", and from that point you were alone, compiling almos everything (gcc, libc, making the ELF transition by hand)...
You should have just create a BufferedImage, you can then call setPixel on the "WritableRaster" you get from it. Then you render the whole image to the screen at once.
Not an interesring question here because both answers are right in a way, and here we all favour one of them. This is a question that would be more interesting in a survey, to see how different ages/professions/genders/etc correlate with the idea of copyright, or even the meaning of "the law" vs "the sensible thing to do". It'd be interesting to see such a survey...
Yes, the thing is that the more we "progress", the less there's to do! Less and less people needed in all fields, more and more productivity and goods being created, but nobody can buy them because they are unemployed. The basis of Marx's description of the fall of capitalism.
The US is so right-wing-conservative that a self called "internationalist, socially leftist" can be so to the right! I hope Obama is a step towards fixing that for them...
Why are you being moderated as "informative"? You clearly don't know how the <tag> is used. You don't need to know the plugin beforehand. The pre-acid2 browsers era, many browsers requested that, but it wasn't a design issue in the <object> element itself. You can just put the content in the "data" attribute and let the browser take care of finding the plugin!
You still don't answer. They could just have specified some standard parameters. And of course it's part of HTML5, I knew that. So what? Can't someone make comments about proposed standards now?
What API? Tags do not have APIs, and the <object> can be extended with "params"s... This "video" tag looks a lot like an old Netscape HTML "extension" to me.

In soviet space, you can hear no one screaming...

The fix is already included in the accepted updates:

I think you should check the Java port of Quake then: http://bytonic.de/html/jake2.html

I don't think you quite understand what JavaFX is... JavaFX is an alternative way of creating Java applets, which will run on Java Plugin.
So the proof that the newly released JavaFX will fail is that you haven't been using it for building applications? Uhm...
It's not easy to find things that stop working with new Java releases. Those must be very crappy applications.

Even without that "quick start" applets will start faster and won't block the whole Firefox process while loading.
Uhm... but... I looked it up in the docs and found out how to do that in less than a minute! =)

Applets slow starting was supposedly fixed in Java 6u10, if you have an older Java install the latest (http://www.java.com) and try again.

I misread this as "Researchers getting laid..."

Does anyone know the rationale of not using <object> for including video? It would have been perfect for that usage, and completely standard...
I'm sure they are after targeted advertising... as in Soviet Russia, Google searches you!
(Be kind, this is my first usage of a Slashdot meme =) )
Wow! You shouldn't be making recommendations!
CVS fine? and SVN just the popular new kid?
Naming conventions? Do you really think that is one of the most important things to have?
Useless comment with revision history in the top of the file?
Find a mentor? What for?
Don't make waves??
All this sounds as a recipe to be a mediocre programmer... =)
