As an asian I have often found it to be an advantage t be an asian, since many people have this stereotype of the dedicated, hardworking, smart asian (boy, where they wrong with me.. just kidding!). Even here in the Netherlands I am sure it gave me an edge. On the other hand, a moroccon friend of mine, also very diedicated and smart, does not get invited for an interview because of his moroccon name. And that's bad.
I had some bad experiences with sis chipsets, on asrock motherboards for socket a AMD and for socket 478 for intel. Running FreeBSD. Avoid like the plague, especially if you use freebsd. Most annoying problem was that activating the serial port killed the network connection.
Actually this could be part of a new business model. We have set up a small record label where all music for our artists are freely downloadable under creative commons license. We also accept donations for the artists and sell cd's. That way, it is fair for the customer (they pay what they want, no drm crap) and for the musician (they get all the procedings, instead of major labels where artists get NO money from cd sales). Check it out on http://www.dyinggiraffe-recordings.com/ We also want to encourage other people to do the same! With minimal investmens we could start a network of cc music, fair for musicians and customers..
If I zoom in to a certain magnification, the labels of Belgium and the Netherlands are switched.. if I zoom further in, it's correct.. I do wonder what plans google has with their expansion to europe..
Obviously, I don't mind the competition making good or better products. What I do mind (but of course, everyone does that) is that companies bring out so called ipod killers, who don't live up to expectations. They are too big, too ugly, do not have a refined gui, do not intergrate that well with itunes, some of them do not work with a mac etc. And I find that more important than the ability to record, to play ogg, to play video or whatever.
I knew Hans, the guy who died in the accident. I was very shocked, I met him only recently, and I just discovered that there was a picture of me on his site. Last time I spoke he told me he wanted to join geekcorps or something similar, to do something useful for the world. It pains me that that won't happen.
As a logic user I am very happy with this news, but since I use logic express, I have been dissapointed several times with logic express not getting the bug fixes that logic pro has. I really hope apple improves on this.
I do. I have a large cd collection, and when I still had a discman and took de c'ds with me, many of them got scratched. I have even bought several cd's serveal times because they where damaged. So now I just backup my CD's. Same with DVD's, some dvd's I play again and again, I like playing a dvd in the background while doing ome work. And me being a little sloppy, things got damaged. So some of my most often played dvd's I backed up.
So I thought, ok, I am an apple user, I have an ipod, there is a valid point about companies opening up their platforms. So I thought, let's try to buy a 50 cents song on the real site. "Mac not supported". Wankers.
Don't worry about it, this machine has no wireless and no routing, which the wrt has. And oh, I killed my WAP54 (similar to the wrt) while flashing... talking about aaaagh.
Very very true. As a MTA, I found the combination of postfix, courier imap, amavisd, anomy, procmail working very well. Central contacts might be done with ldap. But I still have to find a solution for central calendering, preferably one that works with a webinterface and outlook, and preferably a single app, instead of something intergrated with the mta, contacts and kitchen sink. Any suggestions? Most of the groupware solutions I have looked into were monolitic intergrated apps.
I don't believe in voluntarily. I see a future in which people who did not "voluntarily" gave up information are harrassed and automatically marked suspect.
Wether the dropping of the atomic bombs on Nagasaki and Hirsohima was right is open to discussion. What I found wrong is the total lack of care for the people involved in the testing. Also quite disturbing: I heard that in a museum (was it Los Alamos?) you could buy silver jewelry in the shape of the first and second atomic bomb. Now that is tasteless, I guess the next phase is Zyklon B jewelry.
One thing which was nice about xfree86 is that is was very crossplatform, so it ran under linux, *bsd, solaris (etc) and on i386, ppc, arm etc. How will this be with x.org? Any plans?

Exactly my experience, lots of problems with 3com nics, very low performance, and bad at auto negotiating. Replaced them with intel pro 100 and pro 1000 and since then, performance and stability has improved dramatically. No more 3com crap for us.

Why would you want to run *nix on a ppc when you can run it on a cheaper amd64 machine? I like my powerbook, but this is also because it runs os X.

Great, so now I would have to download this massive .net runtime environment just to use the ati control panel. Tell me how this is a good thing?

"the company now says that portions of eVACS's codebase will be released only to approved analysts, and in encrypted form, to enable viewing"
Jay! The analysts get to see the encrypted source!

On garageband, you can recover only 3 songs. If you want to recover more, it will cost you $ 6.99 per song..
Have been's, like Mozart, Bach, Mahler? There's some pretty good music that isn't new you know...
