Variable framerates are one thing I hate in games. The crap level/model design that causes it is another. When you only have a low-end card and 30fps is as good as it gets, even having something walk in front of you on screen can be fatal. Not to mention bloody annoying.
Basically it works this way: If you're involved in the demoscene, you don't have to worry about stealing because your colleagues will happily mob lynch thieves like this for you. If not then you'd better have a big fanbase.
In my last years of my old school they'd just finished throwing out around 300 perfectly functional 512K Macs and 2 rooms of Acorn computers, for a few hundred Pentium 2s running Win2k. On a good day the Windows machines "only" took 10 minutes to thrash their way to a login screen, 5 to get past the login screen and another 5 to go quiet. Until you tried to move the mouse. And the right mouse button was permanently disabled in explorer.exe, apparently for "security". When I'd left they were already halfway through replacing all the hardware because of constant complaints that apps like MS Office took 10 minutes (not kidding) to open. And close. Most people didn't bother logging out because of that, and you can imagine the fun that resulted.
Then I got dumped with more of the same in college... *sigh*
Dmix only works as long as you don't have a braindead app that accesses the hardware directly. Flash 7 does this, and it's going through the alsa OSS emulation...
I got two LED spotlights a few weeks ago, and I have to say they are better. They may be expensive for the light output, but they use next to no power at all (these are 1.4W each) and they look damn cool.

INET_ATON/NTOA convert between ints and IPv4 strings. You can use it in a view if you're really that lazy, and I guess you are since you didn't do your fact-checking to begin with.
As for CIDR blocks, they're just a bitmask on a u32 int. You do at least know what a bitmask is, don't you...?
Congratulations! You just outlawed anything capable of running a CGI script.
Or is it like PC console emulators, where they use some fancy algorithm to round the corners of the pixels? Or maybe they do nothing at all?
They've been taken out of AMD64 native mode, and they expect people to just use the NX bit for everything now.
No, DRM is the equivalent of passing a law that says all new roads must be built for cars with hexagonal wheels.
That's based on the assumption that home electricity will cost exactly $1500 and car fuel will cost $1000 each year until 2032.
I'd say the benefit of having a full-home UPS is worth the extra cost.
Tried Ubuntu recently?
IMO, you're right with all three assertions. Especially the last one.
What may seem obvious to you may be an alien concept in American society.
Maybe that'd explain why the analogue stick on my Wii controller's turning blue after just three weeks...
Might as well finish the series given that they've spent more than $20 million to make the first two.
Hopefully then they've fixed the regression in the betas where sound just didn't work at all.

You mean IKEA?
C gives you enough rope to hang yourself with.
PHP gives you lego bricks. Most PHP users, for some inexplicable reason, try to eat them and choke.

A Linux alternative to the Mac Mini, with just enough extra bits to run AIGLX while still on a 12V adaptor.
I'd buy one. Hell, I'd buy ten and give them away to people.
The closest thing I can think of that fits that description is Postgres.
I had exactly the stability problems you describe... until I replaced my GeForce FX 5200 with a Radeon 9250.

Threading, pages, correctness, code that fits on one screen.
Pick three.
They released a next-gen Sega Saturn here, hardware, marketing and all.

Maybe the people operating the bot caught on that people had noticed the "read more" repetition, and changed its output.
