i guess it depends on the judge. what i was thinking was that if the test returns true for both machines, the judges will assume there's something wrong with the test and go back to the drawing boards.
but back on topic, i totally agree. and best of all, i think this is possible, simply by adding a setup.sh file. and having packages come with packages of their dependencies (or, at the very least, the ones most likely to be missing).
it would probably still have to be CLI, but it could have some rudimentary ncurses-based GUI (think "Press Enter to Continue" rather than "Click Next"). and, of course, it would have to be compile the source if we needed a one-size-fits-all install package, so it would be slow, but at least it's something.
well, they couldve kept the blockquote tag and just added css to it. this is what blockquote was meant for. div is meaningless, and shouldnt be used in place of blockquote.
unlikely. i'm pretty sure in an earlier article, someone posted a link to some guy that compared the media portion of the same file purchased twice, with two accounts, from iTunes plus (anyone have the link?). they were identical, so there's no steganography involved. the only other way is the metadata, and people looking at the metadata will find anything else that's hidden there.
it's pretty easy to check. diff file1 file2. if there was anything else fishy in the files, i'm sure we wouldve heard about it by now.
i've got a question though. are the 3 atoms (apID, cprt, iods) visible in iTunes? i'm pretty sure they're not in XMMS and Winamp. if you got to view/edit the details, only a small list of hardcoded atoms are listed. if not, then out in the open is a bit of a stretch, since no one who wasnt looking for them would ever know they're there.
aieee, the stuff in the exploits section is barely even related to linux. it's all third-party stuff. and by third-party i dont mean GNOME, i mean XOOPS. there's even Microsoft exploits listed here.
Blue Gene/L Compute nodes use a minimal operating system supporting a single user program. Only a subset of POSIX calls are supported, and only one process may be run at a time. Programmers need to implement green threads in order to simulate local concurrency.
POSIX, so you might be able to recompile linux apps onto it.
if it was done for some legitimate reason other than greed, it would be different. if, for example, it was DX10 only and/or a PIA to port to XP, that would be understandable. unfortunate, but understandable. that's not the case here.
the only reason it's vista only is because MS want to sell more copies of vista, which has nothing to do with the game. that's despicable. they may have the right to do so, but we have the right to complain.
that's a pretty extreme scenario. if the power goes out, you leave the building. same is true pretty much anywhere except your own home. i dont see libraries having an adequate supply of candles lying around.
and if you RTFA, all they're really saying is that libraries should be easier to use, even if you've never set foot in one. it's not about digitizing them.
i'm looking at it now. i dont see anything flash couldnt do (though i've never developed a flash app myself). it's just a well designed interface and a video player. am i wrong, or couldnt this same thing be done in flash? anyone with flash experience want to take a look?
Overclocking a modern CPU gets you mostly nothing nowadays.
not always true. certain things will be greatly sped up with an overclocked CPU. ripping a CD or DVD, for instance. and if you dont have the latest and greatest video card, your CPU may be the bottleneck in games, and overclocking will help.
yes, for the most part you're probably right; overclocking a given CPU wont make a whole lot of difference most of the time. but the same is true when going to purchase a CPU: an E6700 vs. an E6400 wont make a huge difference in day-to-day usage, and the price difference is very significant. but, if you do want a higher clock speed and are willing to overlock, it makes more sense to buy the much-cheaper E6400 along with an aftermarket cooler.
when they say "alcoholism," does the actual disease have anything to do with alcohol, or is it just merely a "susceptibility to addiction" disease? if the latter, how is that any different than videogame addiction?

i guess it depends on the judge. what i was thinking was that if the test returns true for both machines, the judges will assume there's something wrong with the test and go back to the drawing boards.
but then the whole thing would moot, since she wouldnt be following the rules. any results would be meaningless.
any speculation that the price is simply to get you to back down?
anyway, let us know when Joanna responds to your response to her response.
true, but get still shouldnt be used for actions, not just because of CSRF.
i'm thinking we should at least discuss the option of having browsers prohibit any POST from one domain to another.
i was joking mostly.

i cant even find the option in preferences. anyone?

that's all well and good, but i cant seem to find any unpatched vulnerabilities on that site. anyone have a list of ones that actually need work?
install.sh: you're welcome.

it sure is
this is great news, since i know all of us are using silverlight apps on a day-to-day basis with windows, and we really need to get them onto linux.
except, not.

my guess is, if you need a telescope in space to see it, you'll be fine.
