Two of the required packages for Oracle 10g on RH Linux are xscreensaver and control-panel. These two packages pull in the following additional packages and dependencies:
Oracle front line support will not escalate until they are satisfied that your xscrensaver is properly installed. This means that it is required for hicolor-icon-theme and cdrecorder to be installed on your production Oracle server. I'm not kidding here folks. This is what Oracle requires to support their database on RH Linux. Absolutely pathetic.
Whereas it would seem a designer would point the photo cells towards the source of light with the wires leading back to the brain, it would be poor design to have the photo cells pointing away from the light with their nerve processes departing on the side nearest the light.
Oh dear, I must debunk the debunker, even though I generally agree with his position.
The most common CCD design is the back-illuminated CCD. In this design, like the human eye, the photocells are on the back side and the electrical traces that conduct the signal off the chip are on the side facing the light source. Only very high end research CCD cameras use front illuminated designs. Obviously a CCD is designed, and most have us have personal experience that the design works pretty well for its purpose. So I can't agree that it would be a poor design to place the sensors on the back of the detector array.
The new curriculum mentions that theories of life arising from similar building-block molecules through purely random processes can be challenged by recent findings in the fossil record and by molecular biology.
What theory is that? No one proposes "purely random processes" are part of the origin of life. Elements, molecules, radicals combine in certain well-defined ways. You don't just bump molecules together and they combine "purely randomly." What was that commandment about bearing false witness against your neighbor? Looks like Lying For Jesus is still very much in style.
You don't need to hack a satellite feed to get that information. It is available on the web at AISlive.com and several other services. Commercial vessels broadcast this information on a reserved marine VHF channel using HDLC packet protocol. Receivers are cheap, around $250, so all you need is a notebook, a VHF radio, and charting software that can plot AIS data.
My GF who is also an Engineer uses windows because of her daily work, but she uses my mac everynow and often and she likes it a lot... im sure she will want one once we move in toghether.
Windows and Mac, living together?? How will you exchange... uhhh... files? You think you can just mount her volume?

Just drop all the pretense, and yell "Go Team!" If they do the NFL in HiDef, why not C-SPAN?
I have no love for Microsoft whatsoever but they're just a big corporation marketing a product that they just want to sell lots of.
Of course! Now I get it. I did not realize that made them immune from criticism, but now I understand. Hell, it may even make them above the law, for all I know.
That works great until some asshole breaks dependencies. My install of K3b in my MEPIS distro was busted for weeks while the Debian guys rearranged the furniture.
Not only does it interfere with scientific terminology...
Which termionology is that? Are you saying that there is a widely accepted definition of a planet that is not in the center of a controversy? Please, do tell. What is it?
(there isn't one, don't bother trying to find it)
If it were as cut and dried as referring to the definition of the term "planet" there'd be no controversy. Pluto would fit the definition, or it wouldn't. But there isn't a definition that has gained enough acceptance to settle the controversy. Many have been proposed, but none have become The Definition.
Has anyone stopped to consider that what hinders linux migration the most is the linux community itself and gaming industry?
What does that have to do with this article? This is about Linux in the data center, not on the desktop. Did lack of games hinder VAX/VMS in its heyday? Did it hinder AS/400? I think not. Go sit in the corner and read the article.
The popular games like The Sims, Battlefield, Total Wars, Doom, and Madden 2k6 are not developed on Linux.
The audience Ballmer was addressing doesn't give a hairy rat's ass about any of that.
It's not going to be ugly at all. IPv6 has so many addresses that it is possible for large organizations and ISPs to have to themselves an allocated address space the same size of the entire IPv4 space, and smaller orgs can have an address space equivalent in size to a couple dozen IPv4 class A networks. Customers can retain their exisiting IPv4 equipment, and maybe even the same IPv4 address. The ISP's IPv6 border routers merely adds the proper IPv6 prefix to the customer's IPv4 address as it egresses the border. NAT occurs on the inbound side too, stripping the prefix and routing via old-fashioned IPv4 protocols within the network back to the customer's endpoint.
This has all been thought of. Endpoint equipment capabilities are not a stumbling block. IPv6 can be implemented at the core or backbone, without affecting the end nodes.
I must admit no such thing. There are not millions of people who feel that way, except in your imagination. You can refute me easily: show an example of someone saying those things. Go on, it must be out there and easy to find if millions are saying it. So show me. I'm not asking for a link storm, I want a specific citation of one instance of one person saying those things you claim millions are saying.
I mean, yes, Casto doesn't allow his people to access the internet except with government permission, and even then content is filtered, but that is a reasonable man simply trying to protect his people from harmful ideas... BUT DAMN THOSE EVIL CAPITALIST FOR OPPRESSING THE CUBAN PEOPLE BY SELLING CASTRO FILTERING SOFTWARE!!!
Your post is the only one I have seen that says that. I find it common that people on the right avoid addressing what is actually said, and instead attack a strawman charicature. It's easier to find a place to use all their buzzwords and talking points that way.
Geez... why can't people just admit that they are reactionary whankers with no real ideology...... But please, GET AN IDEOLOGY before you start your self-rightous preaching! Enough of the self-contradictory, reactionary drivel that passes as "political correctness" nowadays!
Wikipedia is just a bunch of people posting their opinions online, while the open letter is just a bunch of people posting their opinions online. Does that help?
I mean, come on. Why King Kong? Was the world really lacking yet another King Kong adaptation? This movie will make Gozilla look like Independence Day.
I'm sure we'll see lots of dirty tricks like HD films having lots of extras and the normal DVDs being left as essentially bare bones to "encourage" people into upgrading.
That's no dirty trick, that's exactly what I want: just the movie please, no filler. They aren't offering this on DVD, but if HD makes it so, then bring on HD. It will make DVDs more appealing (and hopefully cheaper).
I thought IKEA was the Oracle of furniture stores.

However, the OSS movement if successful (and I doubt it will be in the long run) will end up making it very hard to make money in software development and maintanence.
This is very true, so long as you define "successful" as "makes money." But OSS defines success as "still here, still available to be used at any time by anyone, for any reason." By that standard, OSS is already successful and cannot fail until the last computer fails.

Then you should stay on your private LAN. That is the only way to accomplish your wish.
