First Looks at Linux DA PDA
e1en0r writes "My Linux DA PDA finally arrived yesterday. It's a great PDA for under $100. I put up a review of it here. It's very similar to the Palm OS, with a few more interesting features. The most notable being the file manager. You can see where everything is and view all the files in text and hexadecimal mode. It also appears that you can overclock the 16 MHz DragonBall CPU up to 25 MHz. There are some screenshots on their site, which include the CPU Speed application. Unfortunately that application is lacking in documentation." The review is a little thin, but its still cool seeing these in the wild.
french toast!
Ants do it well. Bees do it better. But the society of Homo Sapiens is a sorry example of colonial structure. This is good however - that structure which, through the Darwinian lens, we see has obviously served the class Insecta well for hundreds of millions of years, is the worst of all possible "life styles" for bipedal intelligent apes. Despite the best efforts of many evil goons (Hitler's SS, Stalin's NKVD, Clinton's ATF, etc.) human beings do not respond well to serious attempts to collectivize their behavior. To be sure there are occasional success stories - high in a crumbling tenement tower the welfare queen spewing forth her gangsta larvae while down below in the streets her 11 and 12 year old drones are buzzing with criminal activity - even if they happen to be micro-environments supported by AFDC. As the 20th century draws to a close we can see the cumulative effect of these state-of-the-art equipped goon squads ever more frequent and intense attacks. The resultant deadening of creativity and suppression of the individual insure that the main legacy of this century will be appalling vomit like Auschwitz, suburban shopping malls and the Lawrence Welk show - dead games for dead players.
To liven things up a bit I suggest legalizing all drugs, maybe a constitutional amendment asserting the right of each citizen to eat, smoke, inject or shove up their own asshole, any chemicals, plants, or invertebrates that they so choose. Think of the fun! Each evening gaily painted vending trucks roll through the neighborhood, bells-a-tinkling. At each stop the vendors (all retrained former narcotics officers) are greeted with welcoming crowds of eager customers. Next morning the same trucks, driven this time by work-release inmates, roll through the neighborhood collecting the corpses of overdose and suicide victims. The week's bodies could be burned at half-time at the local football stadium, or maybe reprocessed into fertilizer for marijuana and opium farmers. Society could rid itself of its most stupid say those unable to read and comprehend an LD-50 in a PDR, instead of being guaranteed that they join the already swollen ranks of state and federal civil service.
The art scene in America today could also benefit from rampant drug use. Picture this: Seiji Ozawa is guest conducting the New York Philharmonic on Christmas Eve, a special program of holiday music broadcast live. With his back to the audience he raises both arms high poised to begin the first number. Instead of a baton in his right hand though, both hands are holding small Uzi machine pistols with 30 round clips. In an unannounced change of program the orchestra strikes up a turgid, obscure atonal piece by Arnold Schoenberg. Just as the audience's impatience seems ready to erupt into riot Ozawa empties both clips into the orchestra and turns to face the audience, grinning with demented joy, an erect penis protruding from the unzipped fly of his tuxedo trousers with a strand of jizm hanging precariously. As he's hustled off by paramedics, Connie Chung manages to ask him "Mr Ozawa, can you tell us what happened here tonight?" Ozawa just has time to reply "Connie, just my very, very best performance." Later in an exclusive interview with Montel Williams at the Betty Ford Clinic, Ozawa reveals that he had been pretty fucked up on sake and scopolamine for several years.
Oh my shit shit, this is big two time fuck fuck for family and pet cow. I am having graduated from India Institute of Technology (New Delhi campus) with degree in Physiological Gonzo Marketing Nuclear Gymnastics with minor in Oracle Java J2EE Informix eCRM XML Datawarhousing Programming so I can have come to America to work for $3.95 an hour at Motorolla in Shuamburg Illinois or Oracle in Redwood Shores. They were not having me because 2 weeks before I received my H1B, this fucky indian bodyshop was offering bluelight special - 2 H1B's for price of 1, and of course Oracle and Motorolla hit the 195,000 H1B limit on this. So what I am having then was job at VA Linux.
I was having done exceptional work for VA Linux. My responsibilty was to design an Oracle database J2EE compliant application that would make sure slashdot would crash enough times each day. It was what you white marketing/sales guys would call - "killer app". Nerds at work didn't have to worry anymore about slashdot being up all time - it was great, and I felt I was helping out most graciously especially after September 11. I was even having american flag in my car window hanging under my ganesh sticker. What else could an H1B ask for?
Today what am I having - big pink slip on desk next to american flag and dilbert cartoon that I thought would help me fit in to "american corporate culture". I am so pissed pissed - after the "formkeys" killer app, this is how they treat me? I blow you white fuckees now - you always snicker behind back and I thought it was nothing - I know now - I blow you assholes. I no even have money for plane ride home to New Delhi because I sent my last check home and they refuse to send any back to me - they say "screw you fuckee fuckee, we spend on atari and shitty movies where 10 guys dance and sing around one girl".
I am so screwed - maybe someone else will have use for "formkey" killer app. Email me at prabhakarakadeshasima@weneedmoreh1b.com if you know anyone who could be having use for this app - it has oracle and j2ee and wap enabled too.
Is anyone using the latest Mozilla and noticed the icon in the URL flicking you the bird on elenor.net? That's a nice way to greet your readers.
Yeah, well fu2.
