I said I'm NOT trying to start a flame war. I think that learning both sides of the issue is way more interesting. With most local news I get one side of the issue and some of the facts.
I live in the bay area and the only big newspaper around here is the Mercury News. Without trying to start a flame war, it's much easier finding an unbaised article online.
I've had an open source wireless-N router for a while now. I installed dd-wrt on it first day. Linksys makes WRT310N. It's much cheaper than that on amazon.
If hitting your chest and suddenly talking to whoever you wanted to was practical then cell phones would have done it a long time ago. This has nothing to do with Star Trek. They want to find a way to make satellite phones sexy. Plus the communicator wasn't woven into the fabric. The show has communicators working when detached from the clothing.
Pirating is illegal. Pirates are only ones really complaining. Pirates switch to Linux End of problem and it will takes windows out of the Free OS market.
I mentioned eMule to a co-worker. He was fired the next day. I found out when I had an interesting visit from one of the execs asking me if I knew what eMule was. It brought down the entire network. It's been my experience most organizations don't take incompetence lightly. I bet she got fired and I think the IT guy should go too.
OpenSolaris is perfectly practical for the desktop, just maybe not EVERY desktop.
I agree, but I'd like to add another point. Your desktop may have unsupported devices. If you were using Linux about 2-3 years ago you would have a hard time supporting most wireless drivers out of the box with many distros. I would imagine OpenSolaris having similar problems. Many desktops have wireless cards. I'm sure it's similar with many other peripherals.
Wifi doesn't cost much for the end-user because most people already have wifi. Wifi infrastructure costs more money for the providers. At the end of the day someone is paying for it. I say we should invest in the most economic technology, but there will be a lot of people with wifi cards who don't agree.
It's a fishing exercise. They give it to college students. When one of the students makes a viable game they'll buy it from them or charge them a substantial license fee. They may even be trying to get rid of that pesky learning curve on new hires. Plenty of ways to spin this. I agree...Good business sense. Market exposure is key.
The biggest is because Comcast gives very long DHCP leases, and the change doesn't propagate to your system until your access device gets a new DHCP lease.
DHCP lease time is 1 hour for my Comcast. You're probably right about the batch thing.
I understand that the volume is currently small, but they are commercializing the burn-up of potentially hazardous material in earth atmosphere. Circuit boards contain many things that shouldn't be burned. I hope that they screen for hazardous material that shouldn't be put into the atmosphere.

'One thing ARM doesn't have, however, is Windows,'
Who wants windows running on low-end computers anyway? You'd be waiting minutes for your web-pages to load.
Ubuntu has the arm stuff working now, so I want a laptop to install it on. It would keep me from lugging around a big notebook.
It's interesting they don't talk about the palm pre with armel-linux.
I've rooted my pre and I can run stuff like ssh or telnet from it, but it would be cool to have something with a larger screen and a keyboard.
Some IT guys I know don't have degrees. If you have a bachelor degree in anything it would be a lot easier to change careers. Go to school part time.
Is there a potential to use this on a GPU? The current problem with GPU programming seems to be solved with swarm.

The man is criminally liable for sending the e-mail and infecting computers.
The hospital is at fault for releasing the documents.
Yahoo doesn't claim to block ALL threats. Yahoo is fine.
In order to find the woman at fault you would have to prove she is criminally negligent.
I say A and D are in trouble, but I bet you B gets fired.
Hey!!! speak for yourself.

I think Ohio that's still considered an invasion of privacy.

Sorry he beat you. It's just been posted now.
You can have a webserver using python serve up requests that are handled in PHP. The webserver is only the connection piece of the puzzle.
Hmm...what doomsday weapon requires mass amounts of rare earth metals?
I'm not sure my neighbors will be very happy. It seems like a nice way to piss of some real life property owners.
The boardwalk must be in DC then.
Someone needs a new database engineer.
GnuCash can import QIF files.
There is also a KDE app called kmymoney2.
They look very useful, but I've never used them for real money management.

Your opt-out request has been confirmed. We will complete processing of this request within 2 business days.
I wonder if /.ing the Comcast request page makes it take longer. ;-)
