Something worth noting is that women have always been more social. Has anyone heard the metaphor that men hide in caves with problems whilst women socialize over their problems? Also, the stereotypical image of a "gossip" is almost always female.
Men just prefer to deal with their problems alone, while women will team up and fight them with synergy.
People who want to do this are possibly suffering from a legacy complex where they are worried about what mark they leave on the world. Maybe this will satisfy you and maybe you'll make your kids experience these but it's not going to change the facts--there's a low probability anyone but your offspring will remember you. Hell, I don't even know any generation prior to my grandparents and neither does history.
This is definitely true; the people being referred to believe that storing one's life onto a disk will mean they're remembered, but that is definitely not the case. Memories are only part of a person, with thoughts and uncountable other pieces making up the rest. Besides, if someone were to do this, then why would anyone care to read the disk? I doubt anyone really wants to know everything about someone, or even anything about anyone. It's just a waste.
Besides, it'd take up far too many resources to have a unit filled of memories for each person, not to mention space.
I would think that people who want interactivity would play the video game based on the movie. Why would they want to have influence over the movie that they only want to watch, rather than have full control of a simulation in a video game?
I would think that APNG would be supported first; it allows non-animation-supporting clients to view the first frame, and treat it exactly as a PNG image. APNG just adds more data, and more chunks, to the PNG format, whilst MNG is something almost completely different.
My Toshiba Satellite has never had any issues with the Linux drivers. Hibernation with the Suspend2 patches has worked flawlessly for years with Gentoo Linux. Everything from the Atheros wireless card to the TV and VGA out have worked without issues, as well.
Maintaining binary compatibility across releases is only desirable if you wish to support closed-source code, and even then is still doomed to be sub-optimal -- unless you are 100% certain that there is nothing that could ever be done a better way, but would break compatibility if it were to be done that way.
This reminds me of something I read on Slashdot months ago: Windows is being slown by being backwards-compatible with nearly everything released for any version of the operating system. I suppose this is a good example of how binary compatibility impacts a system.
Back in the day, when I used the good old ZIP-100 drives, I had to use a SCSI version due to my having no IDE channels free. However, the cheap Tekram card's WinXP driver resulted in the drive being detected, then dropped. I had the "new hardware" dialog pop up every few second, and ended up giving up on it. The same card installed in my Gentoo box works perfectly, and only required my changing one option on the kernel compile.
I've been programming since seventh grade; starting from the TI-83 and moving through XML and related markup languages, to PHP, and eventually moved to C and C++. Just now, I'm working on a simple pseudo-database for the members of the new Programming Club at my college.
Actually, I tend to prefer FreeBSD, but have never gotten gst-ffmpeg (for GNOME) or mplayer in ports to compile; and since I'm on a source-built machine, it won't let me fetch a package.
Other than this one instance, FreeBSD has been great as well as fast with the proper optimizations in make.conf.
I like building things from source because I may want to have as few things built as possible, and because certain options set by default may break a system. I also like compiling because it offers the user a chance to support anything from a Pentium 4 to an AMD K6 (or lower), along with MMX, MMX2, SSE, SSE2, and 3DNow!.
Another advantage in my eyes is that it is possible to get the newest features without a long time before passing into a stable environment intended for a server on my home PC. I use X11R7 and the CVS version of Gaim on Gentoo, for example. Even SourceMage, with its far fewer patches and the slightest older software options, has met my needs.
The last plus is that as long as the originally installed version from the CD (or otherwise) is new enough, it'll be able to be updated to the newest, as Gentoo, NetBSD, FreeBSD, and SourceMage show -- though NetBSD and FreeBSD have their system sources located outside of their Ports and Pkgsrc systems, respectively. This contrasts from when I was using Red Hat Linux 8; it fell out of support for a while, and the structure of the system was dated enough (compared to now) that upgrading was a hassle.
This makes sense, since David A. Wheeler has had a lot of good things to say about Linux servers. Plus, I've kept a Linux server/router working for a while elsewhere.

The only true way to have a secure computer is to not connect it to any network and not have any media connected to it or put in the drives.
With this adware, users will be able to enjoy ad infestations both while on and off MySpace.

I wonder if this "intelligent" robot were to gain writing capabilities, would it make spelling and grammatical errors.
What about ELinks? It supports an amazing 256 colors and tabbed browsing?
What about a Boeing 747 loaded with DVDs?
This could express Debian's feelings over this whole debate towards the Mozilla Corporation.

Usually pedophiles are hired as teachers before their employer knows, so you never know about those teachers.

The Tab Mix Plus already provides this, along with a little bar on each tab showing the loading progress.

Are you referring to the old joke reguarding the ``OS Beers''?

I use GNOME on one of my installs, and never realized what Ekiga was until I clicked on it.
