Obviously, i haven't been paying too much attention for user comments. But hey, what on earth is the thing behind these "In Soviet Russia.."... "Jokes".
You need your pc and software hardware to do dvd backups.. And you need playstation2 AND network adapter.
Well, there's tons of pvr projects that will eventually do pretty much anything with given media.
This might just work..

If my memory serves my correctly, the most sold game ever in Finland, in the past has been one like this. I dont actually remember its name but it was done for "Icecream truck" company and they sold it as a side thingie from their cars. And, it was quite nice game too. It still is. Oh, now i remember, it was called Dropmania.
Also, people. Even in the old amiga days, i remember seeing advertising in the games. Refresh your memories and start thinking of Kickoff. One of the things i was so fond of it was: "Wow, it even has authentic advertisements!". I guess they wherent paid adds then but putting product placement like this into games doesnt really hurt anyone, quite the opposite.
Where that people who have heard about OSS software and are actually reviewing oss projects to be used in their environment will eventually realize that hey, "If these guys do it for free and things are this good, there might be even better (for them) even if it costs or not when comparing to Microsoft products".
So, it OSS will create competition even thou it might not be gaining market share. Which is good imho.
Yes. It Runs per se. But if you go into php bug database and apache2 related bugs and look into #17868 you will know the reason.
Atleast, this is the case for me not to migrate our production environment since machines im managing are based on ssi based templates and i there is shitload of rewriting unless this wont get fixed.
If things go really really bad (can they get worse?), i bet there's developers who are more than willing to adopt mandrake distribution and continue where the company left off. And, add same kind of businessmodel as Slackware (atleast, used to have) has. Devels are independent and if necessery, 3rd party company takes care of the cd production ?
If you go to the "DirectDownload sites" you will see that "linux X.X" is allready downloadable =)
Not that i have ever visited any of those =) but i bet there's hundreds of websites boasting about latest greatest "LINUX 8.0 ISO DOWNLOAD HERE" allready.
I've been playing Evercrack, on and off, since the day 1 ruins of kunark was released to stores in Finland.
I stopped for allmost a year in same point but have been playing again something around 5 months now.
The thing is, as i said earlier allready, game is what you make it yourself.
I've never had highend character, mainly because of my inpatiance so i dont know how things evolve after +30 levels but before that, all the time its been just mob hunting and exp gaining (far from rpg'ing)... Till now..
After i started playing again, i headed to Firiona Vie which everyone called "Roleplay" server. Well, ofcourse there are d00ds as much as anywhere else and IC is not mandatorying but. Its still there if you go forth with it yourself..
I've now joined one of the respected RPG guilds in FV and since then, (joining took me 3 months because something broke my computer and was offline most of that time) i havent been OOC ingame at all. IC goes on even in the guild boards (tavern) and play is good. Im still *young* compared to rest of the guild but i must admit, as a semiserious roleplayer, things havent been this good *ever* in evercrack..
So, if our EQ experience is lacking, dont make it the truth what you say.. RPG'ing is there and is going on really well.

Friend of my from workplace bought nokia phone with digicam stuff. It seems that this phone can send those images as email to someone.. Well, i set his (hosted) unix box in a way that when ever it receives email from the phone, all attached jpg's will get saved to a web folder..
That folder has some php gallery code and everything runs smoothly.
I didnt really need anything fancy to acomplish this.. ripmime, procmail and and that phpslideshow i downloaded from freshmeat.
I guess i could set him up with "blogging" options too so that he can send email containing just text too so that his blog would get updated too.
I bought 7.3 redhat box for installations i did while back and the box included a rescue cd that was the size of "business card". Well, allmost. The cd was actually few millimeters too wide to fit into wallet's "card compartment" and nice idea was totally useless.
Hopefully FSF gets their business card to the right size..
What i really meant is that Kylix didnt go to be "VB" or "Delphi" fame in Linux platform..
Reason why i didnt adopt it (even thou i had some experimenting with it) is the lack of postgres (way back in version 1) and gtk clix bindings.. I guess it supports postgres now but afaik no gtk/gnome.
Interesting point in that is that now, gnome/gtk is going to be default desktop in Solaris 9 and (my wild quess) linux side is quite big too even if qt might have more users..
So, hell with kylix anyhow, but sad thing if it vanishesh in such purchase.. If it ever will happen...
Obviously, im not the only one to point this out but.. If MS where to buy Borland, that would make life of the Kylix in Linux quite unstable. While kylix is allready in its second phase and we havent seen massive amounts of free and/or proprietary software build with it, its still microsoft acting against certain market..
Also, Borland products are competing with Visual Studio series, and allthou i havent used anything from Rational (nor from VisualStudio), i guess MS has data modelling tools just like Rational... Yey! Good for competition..
Im not sure how gpg key works in rpm's but i would like to think that Noone except accept to redhat's private key could sign them the package. Thus, in conjunction with checksums, its the best choise to avoid stuff like this to happen.
The prochure and the website says its just "GSM". Like, i dont know how things are in US with gsm networks but as far as i know, GSM network can operate on atleast 3 different bands which are 900, 1800 and 1900.
For the hell of it, i might even try to purchase one but before that i need to know on which band it works.
What a f#!"#ing co-insidence! I used to work for one company in Finland who made Pharmacy POS systems for Sco (and Ingres DB it also had other features too, not just pos..) and i helped them to migrate to Linux. And yeah, they are now shipping Redhat;)
My fault, true, i meant Bioware. Somehow i allways thougt that they are same company, where Black Isle is the coding team and Bioware the marketing one..

Something like that: QCast Tuner from boardq. But there's the but.

Anyone know similar gadget that would work in Europe and or in Finland ?

Oh man, allmost christmas.. Im looking out and its allmost -15C outside. Aah and the snow. That wonderfull spongy foam. .ffm! WHAT ! SPONGY FOAM!?!?!
Man i gotta lay off from that crack pipe for a while..
Seriously. I wouldnt describe snow as spongy.. Nor foam. Having lived thru quite a few snowy days down here in finland where polarbears poo icycles.

The Guy that cheesed the last one would then be the Boss himself ? =)Mod this Informative not funny..

Yup, i *STOLE* it but i had that idea allready before i saw it at your messages ;))
The prochure and the website says its just "GSM". Like, i dont know how things are in US with gsm networks but as far as i know, GSM network can operate on atleast 3 different bands which are 900, 1800 and 1900.
For the hell of it, i might even try to purchase one but before that i need to know on which band it works.
Geocities/Yahoo have "Bandwidthquota" that has been used up. That quota is quite strict so its not that unfamiliar.
Or is it just me..
Which means that php would have to be running as a external executable, which means performance drops.
Like, when ever you see any world music in top100 lists ? Never, unless its crossover like Bahamen or similar ..
Wh00t!
