How we know that Matrix doesn't run on Windows XP (Download Squad)

Nov 10th 2008 6:32PM And if the Matrix ran on Linux, Neo would site at a terminal and type something like this:
matrix$ wget bullets.tar.gz
matrix$ tar -zxvf bullets.tar.gz
matrix$ make bullets
matrix$ make: *** no rule to make target 'bullets'. Stop.
matrix$ ls
matrix$ bullets.tar.gz bullets/
matrix$ cd bullets
matrix [/bullets]$ make bullets
matrix [/bullets]$ kernel panic!

So... you want to be a web developer? (Download Squad)

Oct 20th 2008 4:10PM Actually I don't think these tools would help anyone become even a basically competent web designer, let alone a "great" one.

If that were the case, buying a full set of brushes and a box of paints would be enough to make me van Gogh or picking up a fancy guitar would turn me into a Jimi Hendrix.

On the cutting edge of geolocation with Mozilla Labs' Geode (Download Squad)

Oct 12th 2008 10:04AM Are there privacy implications to this? Will this enable any website or web service I visit to pinpoint my location?

Acquia: Commercially supported Drupal (Download Squad)

Sep 30th 2008 7:34PM Any webhosts offering the Acquia Drupal yet?

Datapresser is d(ata)epressing (Download Squad)

Sep 29th 2008 3:10PM We may not be doing so well with artificial intelligence but we've clearly made some breakthroughs in the field of artificial stupidity.

Spolsky's cross-platform password management method (Download Squad)

Sep 22nd 2008 10:28AM I have lots of respect for Joel Spolsky, but I'm not sure that I'd be so keen to follow his example and put my PasswordSafe file on a web-based application. If I did, I'd make sure that BOTH my DropBox account and the PasswordSafe file have VERY strong passwords: see http://www.securiteam.com/windowsntfocus/6C0022AEVQ.html

ArtWeaver: a Viable, Free Photoshop Alternative? (Download Squad)

Sep 15th 2008 9:39AM This appears to be a *painting* program *not* a photo editing program so it's more of an alternative to Corel Painter than to Photoshop.

Is HP building a custom Linux distro for home computers? (Download Squad)

Sep 12th 2008 3:51PM Of course HP has a long history with UNIX (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP-UX) although not on the desktop.

Dropbox Opens Its Online Sync And Backup to the Public (Download Squad)

Sep 12th 2008 1:31PM Lee Mathews: Moving the Dropbox location doesn't do anything at all. To get stuff into Dropbox, I still have to move the file *into* Dropbox. For example, if I want to share a photo, it has to be moved from My Pictures to */My Dropbox. Or am I missing something totally obvious here?

Dropbox Opens Its Online Sync And Backup to the Public (Download Squad)

Sep 12th 2008 1:22PM TylerM, I downloaded the latest version last night and I did look at their website tour again before I commented and as far as I can see there's no way at to get stuff up on Dropbox unless I put it in My Documents\My Dropbox. If they've updated the software, they haven't communicated that fact very well.
