Either floppy disk or CD-ROM. You need no operating system installed.

Posted on 02-11-07 06:24 AM, in N64 High-Level Emulator Source Code/N64 RSP Info? Link
that's exactly why I prefer the term Free Software; both of them have their ambiguities (at least in English), but non-free sounds so much better than calling something "closed source" when the source code is released under restrictive licenses (Microsoft goes so far to call their thing "Shared Source", even though you're required to sign NDAs and never actually share it; doublethink at its finest).

I'm getting ahead of myself. I'd just call it non-free software, sounds so much better and easier to describe.

PhotoRec is filesystem-independent. It wouldn't matter if it's in HFS, all that would be required is access to the sectors and hopefully the disc was burned correctly.

Not only is the tutorial pretty dumb, why is it just a large PNG file? It's a pretty ugly font on it, too.

I haven't seen a K-Mart in years.

btw, something makes me doubt that those DVD+Rs were reasonably priced. Fry's ftw ($20 for 100 DVD+Rs; and Las Vegas Fry's has a casino-type thing for the entrance)

Posted on 02-12-07 01:52 AM, in will an 'update' to vista soon be necessary? Link
spiroth, you post has a few flaws or incorrect implications:
1. You're assuming that all the BSDs are similar. Actually, if you look at them, you can't really tell that FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Mac OS X all shared some ancient codebase. OpenBSD and FreeBSD might only be recognisable as siblings by name alone if you didn't know the history.

2. Similar to point 1, you assume that the *BSDs all use the same package manager. This is also untrue: Mac OS X uses something with Finder iirc; OpenBSD uses a ports/packages system that was based on FreeBSD's, but is now very different; FreeBSD also has a ports/packages system that is really only similar to OpenBSD's by name now; NetBSD has pkgsrc which aims to be portable between different operating systems (it has versions for the other BSDs (incl Mac OS X), Linux, Windows (Cygwin or Interix), Solaris, HP-UX, etc); and so on.

3. You claim that Apple can't compete technologically against Microsoft. Mac OS X is some hybrid of NeXTSTEP, Mach, FreeBSD, and who knows what. It's inherintly superior to Windows NT (features, stability, security, etc).

4. Although I'd consider the *BSDs to be mostly superior to Linux (I can't say much about FreeBSD, that damn installer is scary), there's no real indication they're being adopted over it. I will attribute most of this to the legal battles in the early 1990s over weather 386BSD had illegal AT&T UNIX code; the settlement was eventually that only a portion of the kernel was illegal (which was quickly rewritten), however by that time, Linux had already developed into a pseudo-usable form desktop users were adopting. If it weren't for the legal troubles, I have little doubt that the *BSDs could have prevailed at least on the level Linux does, if not more.

5. On a smaller implication, you sound like Unix is still around with its original corporation. Actually, it's out-lived the original corporation that developed it. There's several reasons for this; let's just give an analogy, MS Windows will die when Microsoft does unless they decide to free it

It's usually that some hotpluggable device (USB, Firewire, etc) hasn't fully initialized yet. But it *would* really help if you listen to Xkeeper's protip.

Posted on 02-12-07 03:18 AM, in can anyone point me to a TOS for RoadRunner in NY State? Link
Most ISPs won't give a damn unless you're having some neglible effect on the performance of everyone else. Even then, they don't usually shut you off before giving you a warning letter, unless you are a real bandwidth killer.

Have you tried calling Roadrunner for another copy? They probably won't refuse.

I feel guilty now for having two Wiis Both in December.

But yeah, it's surprisingly easy to find PS3s. With the short stock, you'd think that PS3s would be impossible to find, but nope, almost every store has plenty of them; people aren't buying.

The second one is in use, and isn't even technically mine, so no you can't have it

However, it might not be so bad if you wait long enough for a price drop !!

Somehow, that's a scary thought.

Conclusion: LT2 needs more staying the same.

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `threads` WHERE `forum` = 255 AND `threadby` = 2;
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `threads` WHERE `forum` = 255;
(hey, LT2 isn't on the index, so I can't magically see the number of threads )

I DARE YOU

Also, the conclusion wasn't made to make any sense. If sense were made out of it, you probably belong to Ingsoc.

I don't really have any weird places. Maybe from garage sales and thrift stores, but that's hardly weird.

The original thread title was "Xkeeper probably has half of the threads here" or something like that, then it was changed with his post. Two new threads have been made, one of which is Xk's, so 65/224 is about 29%
