Isn't regional code locked devices illegal in Australia..? Does this mean that they'll have to sell a modified version here?
Really should take some time off..

He should just take some leave, then come back recharged and ready to weather the bulls!th from the media. He's not really doing himself a favour in resigning.
Although a 1st world country our education system is very third world in some area's. If you offered this to our schools and their parents I believe you would see a MASSIVE uptake in the devices.
My coffee pot isn't on the internet, and if it needed to be, I'd use NAT, or invent some new multiplexor protocol that sits on IPv4. Don't you people realize this??
I'll issue my usual challenge to the IPv6-fans: If you love IPv6 so much, cut yourself off from IPv4 completely. Don't use an IPv4 address. Don't access IPv4 sites. That's what has to happen for IPv6 to be a reality. If you're running IPv6 on top of or alongside IPv4, you haven't "switched over" yet.
no problem.. I'll just ring all the guys that manage the web sites you need and like to visit and get _them_ to convert completely to IPv6.
Let's see how useless IPv6 is then...
The article goes on to explain that Mirecki evidently sent poorly worded email with anti-Christian sentiments around to people interested in the class, and was subsequently beaten for his troubles.
If Valve hadn't treated me like a career criminal and releases that truly fcked up piece of software "Steam", then things might be different. But I will go out of my way to make sure I _never_ buy another valve game again.

I wonder if that's now a clause in his interview contracts: I will not talk about Ubuntu. Do not ask me about Ubuntu. If you force me to listen to a question about Ubuntu I will stick my fingers in my ears like this and go "LaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLa!":-P
I wonder how long before the meaning of Liff words are entered into it?:-) I'd love to see stuff like: DITHERINGTON (n) Sudden access to panic experienced by one who realises that he is being drawn inexorably into a clabby (q.v.) conversation, i.e. one he has no hope of enjoying, benefiting from or understanding.
and
NAD (n.) Measure defined as the distance between a driver's outstretched fingertips and the ticket machine in an automatic car-park. 1 nad = 18.4 cm.
ohh and without a doubt..
SCRAPTOFT (n.) The absurd flap of hair a vain and balding man grows long above one ear to comb it to the other ear.:-)
You see.. they're taking a $129 loss on every x360 sold.. the reason is that they KNOW we're going to put Linux on it.. and the moment we do you KNOW some well meaning twit will port Gentoo to it. Now if these buggers over heat and die regularly what do you think GENTOO is going to do to it with all that compiling?!?!
It's going to set fire to houses and KILL PEOPLE!! Then MS can sit back and let the marketing dogs of war loose, and Linux will be branded as the child killing OS for ever and a day.
so.. which of you genius Judas will be nailing Tux to a dead tree first??
Sony has already stated that the PS3 will run linux... they'll evevn sell you a hard drive with linux on it for the PS3:-) Lounge Room Linux Super Computer:-)
nope, cause there isn't a single thing you can do about it if there is. Live life to it's fullest.. you got no say in the matter of when your day will come.
Seriously though.. I think I remember reading somewhere about "sowing" clouds for rain.. and that it had unpredictable results, I imagine that Toying with events as large as a Hurricane would be like taming a pit-bull with a cattle prod...
I reckon a Cell Laptop version would rock the mobile world... for starters it would take MS 3-4 years to catch up and develop a usable OS for it.. or they'd do what they normally do.. steal/buy someone else's..

Seriously people.. this does not look cool, neat, retro, funky or any thing other than an ugly lump on the end of an appendage.

What a pity... we could do with a decent contender for the positions currently held by Bush/Blair/Howard.

bloody bible bashers :-P
makes zero sense to me as well.. perhaps the guys on groklaw could explain?
Can someone tell my why a web server of this size and capability is useful?

asshats.
But then again, you could accuratly say the same thing about any other I.T. Dept.
I.T. is a cost center of _any_ business, not a profit center..
