They want linux not hurd, why? because linux is/was the next big thing. linux is everywhere, everyone jumps/jumped on the bandwagon, there's a lot of support and effort put into linux, unlike hurd. hurd is promising, but sleepy. most vendors don't even know about hurd, who is using hurd anyway? i'd try it, but i'm not motivated. maybe if linux gets too mainstream i'll switch to hurd. i don't know how good is hurd in executing linux apps, that would boost its usefulness. but otherwise i don't see a point for big vendors to support it at this moment.
this is my opinion, not based on much reallife experience, but still mine...
to me it seems like they're reading/. and wanted to generate some profit you

well clever, i should patent that idea. maybe as an antipatent?
in one of the recent phrack releases, an ubervirus with AI capabilities has been discussed, but the phrack website seems to be down at the moment. check it out, it was quite frightening stuff...
it's indifferent, if you use sendmail or exchange it depends on the os, if your os is capable of running vb crap, and you e-mail client is configured to run it, then you suffer, i can imagine pine running on window, with a mailcap entry for vbs files... but most nobody is that stupid.
I really wanna buy a 3d card, but i can't decide what to choose. I would buy a GeForce, but the drivers are immature. I don't wanna start a flamewar, but what would you recommend for a linux system?
The freenet team (check it out at SourceForge is working on such a solution, you post stuff totally anonymously, and once injected in the network, nobody is able to remove it, it's cached all over the place, but nobody knows exactly where...
I don't agree with you, but that's a matter of taste! i mostly use lynx, it's fast, reliable. i use w3m if there are too much frames or tables, but that's rather rare i use staroffice when i'm interested in the eyecandy, because it's less memory consuming than netscape, try opening 20 netscape windows at once! staroffice consumes much less memory in such cases! and i also use wget sometimes!
Here as a plain coder you get between 15k USD (300k HUF) and 24k USD (500k HUF) netto a year. As a sysadmin, or webdesigner expectations are around the lower mark. I know that's a great interval but it depends on who your employer is, 24k is already very highly paid.
Whenever some "noname" company announces a new app, and i want additional info, then i'll do it your way:
Check the Website
Get some staff info
whois domain, and get the registrators name
check dejanews, for staff members and registrator
This should reveal a lot of info, otherwise hidden. Maybe, next time, we should also nmap the server, and neighbors, for additional info, also whois-ing relevant neighbours... We could also finger them, websearch (google/alltheweb) for staff webpages, and additionally query peoplesearch or similar searchengines, which may provide additional info.
Does anyone have other ideas, for getting background infos?
I'm also in Europe, but i have strong crypto! When using netscape i rely on Fortify. This is a fully automated patch, just type install (or whatever) a few stupid questions, and voila... then you can repackage it and even distribute... When using IE, then there are strong versions on replay.com (Even a 128 bit WinCE IE is downloadable here).
don't moderate it down, somebody had to say it, i propose, that rob should automatically generate a few standard posts like: 1st post, beowulf, ms sux, etc. so i don't have to bother sending them in.:)
Actually it doesn't really wharf apps, just like wm itself doesn't. both arrange wm* apps along one or more lines, and E recognises wm* apps automagically and arranges them along the left edge of your screen. sure, this is the default, you can change where these are aligned. but unfortunately there are two problems.
you can't define more wharfs, so you have to align them along one line, and it may happen that some apps are not shown, since their position is not on your screen.
some wm* apps are not recognised, 'cause they're not fully wm conform...
I hope that answers your question, if i missed a point regarding wharfs, co(rr|nn)ect me.
Slashdot Mirror
this is my opinion, not based on much reallife experience, but still mine...
how do the still existant american cryptoexport regulations affect this announcement? anyone wanna lighten me up?
dont't make another licensig problem out of it, please! i haven't read the licensing info yet.
what's that? sounds cool to me.
sorry i mean, "*not* too well documented"
well, winword is to extensively documented, maybe you can evade that "prior art" thing in this case...
no, there's prior art, commenting on slashdot has been documented ages ago... ahem, where's your patent filing anyway? on a winword converted html?
whoa, hmmm, browsing with w3m sucks then, i never see banners, even if there are no..
to me it seems like they're reading /. and wanted to generate some profit you

Phil you were great! I'll miss you! what a waste!

__ACTION __KEY is an E feature, but that's already covered by the Subject of this posting. I can only recommend, what the previous posts say: xmodmap!
I guess the term "slashdotted" is obsolete, it should be now: "someone yahooed (at) it"

With 20k a year you can get along quite nicely...
hope this helps
Is it possible to let eCos run on my Handheld instead of WinCE?

Yes, you can also add/sub virtual desktops on the fly, you should check out e-0.15.5 at least, if you don't wanna play with CVS and snapshots.
