2.) There are some companies who are doing better now-a-days (like mine) than they were a year ago. This is often a result of hard workers within the company. Reward us.
Not to flamebait, but if your company loses money next year will you be writing a cheque back to them?:)
I'm your average semi-competent geek. I've used various machines for 16 of my 22 years. I've used every windows since 3, amiga, spectrum, you name it.
Yet Linux confuses me.
I like bits. With a tiny bit of help with the hell that is the samba server config I have a linux machine in my cupboard which sits there happily indefinately performing that function. I admin everything via SSH/Webmin.
Joy.
But. SOME sort of sensible config file structure, or more GUI bits would be great. Without borrowing someone else's and having help, setting up a samba server that needs no authorisation whatsoever would have been HELL. I couldn't get it working.
The common GUI isn't so much of an issue. I happen to use KDE because it works. briefly stared at enlightment, got confused.:)
What IS an issue is installing. apt-get upgrade is superb but it's never entirely obvious where things are going. Even if there's no choice a little explanationary dialog saying "I've put this here. Start it this way" is great.
Other thing, auto hardware detection. Everyone should use knoppix for this:)
They have systems they have to reboot every sixteen minutes
My XP box doesn't seem to need rebooting any more than the 2 linux ones... FUD like this has no place in a serious article, especially when the *nix using community is trying to achieve some sort of credability here.
And yes, I agree with the above. I drive a Vauxhall Corsa. It's a car normally owned by old ladies with blue rinse hair. I'm not united like them, I have one for my own entirely seperate reasons.
Weirdly I saw said film on a rare visit to London. That's definetly some real station, and too clean to be a disused one.
Incidentally during the reason strikes by the UK fireman, they closed 22 stations (i,e - the ones that rely one lifts (elevators) for safety reasons. If the film had comne out 6 months later I'd have assumed they "borrowed" one of those stations to film that segment.
I'd be very surprised if that was a set, it's damned convincing. Anyone know a concrete answer on whether it was all/part set and if any of it WAS a station, which one?

Certinally the "Friends" DVDs sold in europe have this.
Or at least my copies did.
Amen. The world is hardly underpopulated.
A child these days is a luxury not unlike the big car, the house or those 20 lattes. Accept it.
You already have it cushy with child benefits etc. I don't seem to see any government handing me innurmerable amounts each week in "xbox benefits".

The way I've always been told you're fine using things like this once you're at altitude.

I've always been asked to turn off electronics for takeoff and landing.
Or yes, they're money grabbing sods
And you managed to read every link about THAT?!?!?

My story is similar to yours.
Got a Yamaha 8x, it recently died so I held off. At UK prices, a reasonable DVD-R is now the same price as 2CDs. Or well under half the price per gb.
The DVD-R drive I bought is less than the CDR was 2 years ago.
You'd think we'd stop being surprised by technology by now wouldn't you.
I've got money on OS/2.
.com idea of mine ;)
In that case, you'd probably be interested in Venture Capitalising a

It might as well go here.

I feel so dirty.
Yep, they even get TV advertising in the UK.
but I wonder if he thought that we were just a group of a dozen pimply faced nerds not very far removed from Trekies/ers?
You mean, you wonder if he had it right?
Yes
I would assume not since it was just luck that you got the "good" datalump.
Hang on, does this finally mean i don't need to plug the tivo into the phone socket? It can finally go into my network?
The Master System 2 didn't have the card or 3d glasses port, let alone the 3.
Maybe not in the USA but there were no less than 4 Master System Sonic the Hedgehogs in the UK
- Sonic 1
- Sonic 2
- Sonic Chaos
- Sonic Spinball
of course.
I always assumed they followed the star trek model and the books are not "canonical" anyway
Check back, see how long it took the Playstation divsision of Sony to make any money.
DTT has 3 channels marked "BBCi" , they're usually used to cover the sports events. They were ch 701,702 and 703 a while ago.
Oh, and very few need new aerials. Hell, I'm in an area with "no coverage" and I get perfect DTT from my little internal aerial.
BBCi has 3 TV channels on Freeview, and presumably at least one on sky. They can broadcast it in audio there too.
And that would be CD quality.
True, it won't match Baker.
Which is why it's actually kind of good that's it's an audio drama, it doesn't really have to.
