Dude, I'm out of position traveling with my spare laptop. I do not do torrents. I also was asking this not just for my subjective selfishness, but to expose this video to a larger audience.
I expect better reporting from Fox News. What crack are you smoking? These guys are twisted liars to support the neo-conservative agenda. How can you expect "better" from these jack-offs?
On that note, I still think Java Applets is the most secure way today to release a piece of "rich media" software on the web. Javascript is just to vulnerable, I surf with FF 2.0 and NoScript these days.
Ok, so everyone is moving to rich media type clients (Ajax). You think that Javascript is more secure that Java applets? HAHAHAHAHAHA! I admin, Java applets security is just now getting somewhat mature - but Javascript is a big huge gaping hole. What other choice do we have? FLASH? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Disk drives can perfectly accuratly be described as "non-volatile RAM". I agree, but that is quite a large distinction. I'm interested in not having any of my browser data ever hit disc, for both security and performance reasons.
PS: accuratly is accurately spelled "accurately":)
Hmmm, interesting. Are there any browsers out there that could operate with RAM only, and not save files to disc? I have interest in such a product for privacy's (and others) sake.
Dude, I wish I was still building cobol screen-scraping apps for terminals - so easy to code fast. This is the web where HTML, CSS, Javascript as well as service-side languages. The web is WAY more complex than the terminal world. Poor comparison, pal.
I used to teach 5th grade computer class, and please do not underestimate the power of Clippy(tm). I would instruct my students to remove Clippy, as I have done per habit for so long, but they would rebel. I recall at least several classes where Clippy hypnotized my class (and kept them preoccupied and easy to deal with.)
The numbers for console software sales don't lie - the PlayStation 2 is still a very vibrant platform with new, hot titles still being developed for it. You cannot count it out, yet. Its the most popular console in the world and has the most software titles available for it. AND it's keeping Sony alive, they sure are not making $ for PlayStation3 brick crap!:) But still, the horsepower in the Playstation 3 is arguably the best out there now, I am guessing we will see some more sales in that direction in about a year after developers learn to really use the new hardware to its full potential (has need even gotten close to full utilization in current releases yet).
You are looking at the wrong numbers. Sure, the Wii beat the Playstation 3, but the Playstation 2 beat the Wii which is where I was coming from if you read my post more carefully. Most statistic websites do not include the Playstation 2 in their findings. Dig just a little deeper, you will see I am correct in that the PlayStation 2 beat the Wii in sheer volume of consoles this season.
Also take note that on the URL you just posted, the 2nd and 3rd top game sales were for the.... PlayStation 2 : Guitar Hero 2 and Madden NFL 07.
Nintendo has created a frenzy around another handheld machine and the Wii, which is killing Sony thus far Did you not take notice that the Playstation 2 outsold the Wii (and all other consoles) this season? I hate Sony, but the PlayStation 3 is a very powerful platform, and SONY is still making money off of their Playstation 2! This battle has just begun, and the winner has yet to be decided.
Javascript vulnerabilities still exist for unix browsers. Javascript in general is incredibly dangerous. "Lets let anyones website whom I surf to execute arbitrary code in my browser." This is insane, and even the ISC (Linux Fanboy Researchers) is recommending noscript: http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?n&storyid=1999
I live dangerously and leave Javscript on myself. Do as I say, not as I do!
Yea, there is a better way. Take a look at Cosco. They demand that you as a supplier play by a few bulk rules, but otherwise I was SHOCKED to see them pay a very fair price for goods, not to mention they take care of their employees reasonably well; much better than the likes of WalMart. Research Cosco's and others business practices, there is a better way.
It really does behove us to create as much false information as possible to flood those data centres with as much crap as possible Isn't that what DIGG is for? GO SLASHDOT!
No, but it does not make me happy to see Google just leech off of Linux and not respond by posting their code back to the community. Sure, they participate a little in posting fixes to the Ubuntu, but they still essentially leeched Linux with little fixed Linux code in return.

That's so not true! I know of several websites out of obscure Russian countries who sell the entire catalog for pennies... *cough, cough*
PS: Fuck Off

Ok, which brave and just /.er is going to post a link to another copy of the video? Screwtube be damed!
Even better, a clean article-only, non-advertising version of the article here: http://www.computerworld.com.au/index.php/id;86278 6408;fp;;fpid;;pf;1

I praise your wisdom, brother.

Sorry man, I was teaching them VBA programming, but they wanted clippy. Parents rule in private schools.

Database software on a chip would really make patching expensive!
This is only true over time. When you first open and then license a new DRM, more eyes could mean more BREACHES...
I have only one url for you, https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/722/ - Surf with NoScript!

You are correct, this is my mistake. I didn't realize that GPL allowed you to leech code so easily!
