Actually, I'm looking for hotsynch for it for an IBM 7040/7044. I can probably port the Fortran version from my SDS 940 though.
Truthfully, I never actually worked on an AS/400, just screenscraped from them on OS/2. That was enough.
As far as I could tell, what looked like rude ECMAScript is in fact Flash. Geez, I remeber when the Macromind stuff used to only trouble you if you happened to run a "Windows Multimedia presentation" or courseware authored with Director. It didn't end up inserted in the middile of your Internet traffic.
Yes, it *is* a Nixonism--actually attributable to his flack, Ron Ziegler. I remeber it from the first time around.:-) The core message is "We lied" but wrapped in an implication that the lie is the *statement's* fault, rather than the speaker's. "Those naughty statements, we had to declare them inoperative." What *Nixon* said was: "I was not lying, I said things that later on seemed to be untrue." I guess "It's a poor craftsman that blames his tools." That applies to wordsmiths too...:-)
Operations cost is *far* from irrelevant to amateur radio satellite operations. Even with "free" labor the cost of ground-based support systems are a *very* significant factor. There has been a lot of weeping in the amateur community about $5B of LEO comms satellites getting smoked, considering how we sweat blood to get stuff on-orbit, but no serious proposals to take the Irridium birds over. For more about satellites and amateur radio see AMSAT
Another issue is that I understand the Irridium birds are a serious problem to astronomers, especially radio astronomers.
The amateur satellite community has it's attention on "Phase 3 D", which is an amazing, sophisticated piece of engineering, 100% ham radio. It's slated to ride an Ariane 5 to a highly eccentic sun-synchronous orbit, perhaps as soon as July.
Is PocketAPRS. Ill be interested to see if anybody else comes up with anything.
With Kenwood having introduced the TH-D7A handheld radio with integrated APRS and simple packet function, there are other choices for compact packet operation, too.
Well, I've always thought of my sex-reassignment as being the ultimate body mod. My tongue's not split though...:-)

I hauled out a copy ot "Titan". The characters I was thinking of were August and April, the Polo sisters. The "no-hands" rule for zero-gee sex was on the same page as a veiled allusion to the Polo sister's relationship, but actually referred to lovemaking that Cirocco was doing wth Gene, (another crewmember of DSV Ringmaster), not the Polo sisters--whatever they were doing took place behind closed doors. There was also some discussion of ejaculation as a means of propulsion.:-)

They were crew members of Rocky's ship. And as I recall one of them died early on.

"Most interesting microgravity sex scene in fiction I've read" award goes to the opening scene in John Varely's "Titan". The fundanetal rule, introduced to make it interesting: "No hands". Think about it.:-)
Of course, the fact that it's insestuous lesbian sex between identical twin sisters spices it up, too.
Varley does go for your attention at the opening of a story...the opening sentence of "Steel Beach" comes to mind, ferinstance.
Well, the audio signal came from my mouth. The microphone picked it up, the radio amplified it and frequency-modulated it onto an AC radio-frequency electrical curent. But it wasn't EM *radiation* until it got to the antenna--in fact the *driver* element of the antenna, if I'm using my satellite Yagi...since the other elements are merely reflectors, and thus unworthy of mention.
Any radiation that occurs before that (like leakage from the cabinet or the feedline, ferinstance) doesn't count.
Who cares? As long as they're either Windows or Linux boxen, use VNC to network them and you're done. It's free, it's open source, it works like a champ. Done.
Perhaps they were thinking of who commissioned the study. Who *did* comission the study? That can influence the survey design quite a bit, as we have seen way too much lately. Too many of these "pundit tanks" seem to be able to offer "identified trends" for sale...
Maybe you'd have better luck if you weren't so territorial?
I certainly understand your willingness to compete with women if they're 100% of your solution set; that just creates more of a "target-rich environment", as Maverick was wont to say in "Top Gun".
But the bi girls will like you better if you don't chase the guys away. If you wanna ignore half the race as playmates, that's *your* problem:-)
We need games and articles that (accurately) depict programmers as sexy, desirable, stable mates to young women.
Speaking as a bisexual female programmer, I can but agree. But I don't think that's what you meant. I think you meant to imply that programmers are male.
The typical action video game is going to have to stretch a bit to make a programmer character, though. *I've* never seen Lara Croft sit down at a keyboard.
Good luck with your search for the intellectual skills needed to keep technology moving forward.

...that this thing hotsyncs only with PCs so far? Seems kinda dumb. OTOH, Palms synch only with Windows, as shipped, so I guess I shouldn't whine.
Perhaps that more of them are women than you think?

That would be the first one to come to mind, but their names are legion. Take a look here and here.
Because that's not how it works. If your computer is so powerful how come it doen't program itself? :-)
Ranma is very cool...transsexual martial arts. I like it. It's not the only martial arts anime with transgender themes though.

I hate false misconceptions almost as much as true ones. ("That theory is worthless. It isn't even wrong!" --Pauli)

I hadn't realized that EM radiation is the property of the body that originally radiated it, and that everything else is a derivative work. :-)
I'll have to start talking on ham radio about "my antenna's signal" now, I suppose.

Quite an *interesting* sandwich. Where I come from, LBT == "Lesbian/Bisexual Transsexual"
..really well. After all, trafficing in warez completely stopped after "Rusty'n Edie's" BBS was busted in 1993.
I want a huge hot tub, and a runway for my airplane though.
