I live there, but what a typical European move, they have one so we've got one. I'd bet that if the manned Chinese flight had fucked up, we be hearing "Oh! Well, we have a non manned flight policy!"
Secondly, which Briton in his right mind will volenteer for a manned Brit spaceflight, the last unmanned one we sent up (first in like 20 years, my god the hype they made about it), The Beagle, just went wrong! Not one part worked...
i hate to double post but look here:
Multiple cards: The kernel implementation of VirtualWiFi supports multiple cards. However, we have not incorporated this support in the user level code of this release.
Meaning its going to be, if not already implemented in the Longhorn kernel. They're definatly aiming this at something, and since there's a user level implementation being created it means that whatever it is will probably be out before Vista has fully taken hold.
Its very strange that Microsoft would be doing this, totally out of chatacter for them which makes me think that using multiple wireless networks is something that going to play an integral part of a future product.
Ok, I'm sure its secure and everything, but i'm not carrying a keyring the size of a fucking brick around with me to use my online banking (I do actually bank with Lloyds) and it really dont think it'll catch on (or people will simply stop signing up for online banking).
To be quite honest i think this was a very good decision by Yahoo!
Let me explain, when i go use chat (IRC) it's always "on topic" (for instance i'll be on #php or #cpp) Yahoo! chat rooms are much more socially driven (ie. people saying "Hi, im Fred, whats ur name?") and I strongly believe that isn't what a child needs. Children should be outside making real friends, experiancing life and learning new things. Not in a small room staring at a screen communicating with people ALL over the world who probably arn't who they say they are, which of course brings us onto the "grooming" arguement which i wont go into becuase i think we've all heard enough on the subject
Good decision Yahoo! I hope other companies follow suit.
Wow! Very clever! Before now (for me anyway) XSS has just been a "bug" rather than a "vulnerability" and apart from the odd phishing attack or sneaky password stealing i never really saw a practical appliance for it until now.
Oh, and just to get in the oblicatory M$ bashing session, who's fault was this entire thing?? MSIE!!! Owing to their clear disregard for HTML standards. MySpace (who never asked to be browsed by IE!) had to take their site offline because of the care-free people.
I leave you with this: If this is possible, what else is vulnerable to XSS+AJAX?
If humans had such pads they could leap 100-storey buildings.
I dont beleive it for a second. Take scale into account! The force needed and the required energy could not be stored in a bit of rubber between you're legs.
How many people in this topic are going to make the points that powered flight has already evolved several times. I see sombody posting "Actually, powered flight evolved a number of times, birds, bats and insects" and then 2 comments down i see somebody else saying the exactly same thing in a way to make out that nobody has brought up this point before and they should win a nobel prize for slashdoting. READ THE COMMENTS BEFORE YOU POST THE MOST OBVIOUS THING POSSIBLE.
you're right, i used my own personal abridged version because i care so much about it that i'd bother would correcting even the tinyest mistake i saw on slashdot. oh look a flying mongoose...
Modified Kernel? Bring on the heap! Big up the stack and overflow every buffer they throw at us! lets see if we can discover vulnerabilities before its even been on beta:p
This a VERY bad thing, and I'm and in the UK. I couldn't care less about the slanted American views on Politics, but i'm going to be bombarded by Ads all the same.
I'm my humble opinion (also horrifically slanted) these kind of donations are a kind of regulated bribary (perhaps not quite as direct as bribary) and I do not think it is a very good idea to have a system set up allowing corporations to give large sums of money to political parties! Anyway, i'd be prepared to bet that there are a good number of very wealthy people holding their breath for this to come through.
I never heard about this, pretty underhand! No doubt Verizon took a nice cut from selling those handsets before they mentioned that most of it would work:p
I great idea! Really and it does address the issue of well, i suppose you could call graphical bloatware. Marcus Ranum said it best:
"If the designers of X-Windows built cars, there would be no fewer than five steering wheels hidden about the cockpit, none of which followed the same principles -- but you'd be able to shift gears with your car stereo. Useful feature, that."
HOW PATHETIC! Two major ISP are willing to piss off thousands of people just because they've thrown their toys out of the pram. Back at school they'd get told to shut up and get along, now it'll become a legal action. GET A FUCKING GRIP!!! I thought the world was too sensible for this kind of thing. I was wrong.
I'm a criminal. i've been running from the law for years, and now i make my final stand! I was young and foolish! i didn't know that when my friend left the country and gave me his CDs i was breaking the law. But now, after years of running, i shall hide no more!
My heinous crime will be made public and I shall face what is coming too me. I can never take back what i did that fateful day! Why oh why did i ever get into music! I knew it would be my downfall, but my young mind was corrupt by the evils of this world!
People say this like is a surprise! What do you expect from the largest, most powerful tech firm in the world? Just sit back and watch all the technology pass them by while they twiddle their thumbs? It always gets to me when people refer to Microsoft like an open source group, news for you: They're Not, they're a big fucking all consuming multi-national company, and when you're one of them, you can afford to pay people to cover every angle of the market with innovation after innovation, but it doesn't mean they shouldn't allow other companies.
I only really realized this last night but its a very good example, e-media and streaming is coming, no doubt about it (The BBC are beta testing a way to stream ALL their shows to users) and of course this new technology need a control of some kind. BANG! In step DRM, and who made that? Microsoft, any other sililar tech? no. anything that could do its job? no. anybody going to make one? no. You see, this is what 10 million bucks will do for you, Microsoft saw this coming and they made sure that they didn't drop the ball, and now sure as fuck, every bit of equipment i buy will be riddled with DRM.
Monopolies commission: How fucking corrupt can you people get??? What ever happened to "We're Splitting Microsoft into 3 separatly managed parts"???
I'll leave you with this: It won't be open source beating Microsoft. It'll be somebody, with fewer morals, with better marketing skills and a lucky break. Fight fire with fire, only somebody who plays them at their own game and is in it for the money will have a chance. God...i hope it isn't Intel!
Slashdot Mirror
Looks like we're getting jealous of the Chinese.

:p take a look at the differances
MultiNet Logo = Nice VirtualWiFi = Word Art!!!

Watch this space.
Flash is definatly going down in price. I remember seening here that Samsing got fined £500 million for trying to control the market prices.
Sounds great, but is it one of these "break-through" which apologies for wasting our time and crawls back through?

IMHO: Swing, and a miss!

Hear that? He's not completely dead!
Not completely dead?
No.
*Inflates Slightly Dead Man - Dead Man Says the word Love*
Hah! He Said to Bluff! So you must have been play cards and he lost!
Thats quite a few useful things :D Give it another 60 years and they'll have their own small planet for research purposes only :p
