HEY, that research grant money is for actual research, not for taking pictures of your friend smoking a bong with their anus and trying to hide it later. Thorough research takes lots of time, even though this could have been implemented in a week or so. At that pace the grant money would dry up. Like with IT budgets; you HAVE to spend every cent, and spending less means you get less money the next cycle.
I think it's weird that they used Farmvile as a reference. Single brain-celled organisms have been playing Farmvile for over a year now, with no effect on anything. Other than wasting time, and posting updates to the uninterested. Try Harvest Moon instead, and keep it to yourselves. Rice is yummy though.
Thanks, Ballmer! I'm going to run down to the computing store and purchase a safe, closed source, expensive, fear based product right this fucking minute... wait, I'm going to finish my coconut juice first, oh then I have to fiddle with some linuxy bits here in Solaris land. Oh crap, I forgot I need to get a van and move some other junk tonight. Oh, then I need to get some medication for my royal wedding fever... Perhaps next week, FOR SURE!!1!
YEAH!!1! Those fuckers probably want a phone line, cable TV, gas, electricity and mail service too! Why do people move in the winter? Shit, they're lucky to get DSL in the first place! Why can't people just stay where they are for the rest of their lives? This is just ridiculous. If the Tea Party were in power, this would be done RIGHT the first time!
Unless you consider the massive waste of these multimillion dollar devices being turned into dust. Go for it though, I'm sure the base cost will be so low for the few consumers on the outer edges of CA will be able to afford this wonderful service while the carrier absorbs the cost of launch, lunch, and reentry. Makes good sense, and should be up and running SkyNet in no time! Damn the jitters, just drink more to cope!!1!
It's both, you pinheads! When are you douchebags going to wise up to the fact that the Democrats AND Republicans are both full of shit, corrupt entities? The right vs. left "fight" is only a diversion to keep you from noticing that the corporations continue to bribe, I mean, lobby their point home with tons of cash for anyone willing to vote their way? You think your vote does anything useful? You're fooling yourself. You think the Tea Party is going to be any different? Good luck, citizens. The corporations call all the shots in this "democracy." Nothing has changed, only the leanings to garner your waste of a vote. Whoever controls the house and senate are meaningless, because they vote the way the corporations tell them to vote. Period.
I like to go where the science is being done, rather than the claims from either side on what I should think based on a dare, er, I mean bet. Not a dare, a bet. That's so much more scientific.;)
It's been done already, though I rarely check it: http://uncyclopedia.org/ . There's probably others as well.
I still like snopes for urban legends, but other than the occasional hoax, vandalism, and interested party injected misinformation. The wikipedia is where I like to pull info from for my own use, and it does a great job for that. Of course it should still be disallowed for true academic and scientific uses, based on the aforementioned issues.
And Fox News complained that this does not fall in line with their version of reality which only goes back 6000 years or so, and does not include dinosaurs. Praise fucking Jesus and be sure and get your Glenn Beck Survival Backpack with your Cash For Gold money! And stop posting pictures of Sarah Palin with a target on her face and a caption reading; "Dump your load here!" That would not be fair!
Qt "is a cross-platform application framework that is widely used for developing application software with graphical user interface (GUI) (in which case Qt is referred to as a widget toolkit when used as such), and also used for developing non-GUI programs such as command-line tools and consoles for servers"
Not in a way that makes it a security violation. You must be new here, so let me school you before this slashvertisement gets anymore stupid...
1) My REAL enterprise uses a fake honeypot wifi with a visible SSID.
2) The "convenience" wifi has a hidden SSID and it is NOT connected to the internal networks, you have to VPN back in for that.
3) My wifi capable laptop has it's wifi shutoff with a nice switch in the front and I only use the wired ethernet.
So, go back you your closet of a data center, take all your servers and place them in the parking lot like I suggested earlier, because:
YOU FAIL!!1!
Nice try, but you're talking to Data Center Jesus here, not some Windows Admin ding-a-ling. No charge for your schooling today, sonny. Use more Linux and less Windows, and you might start getting a contact clue.
Because it's a security violation for any real enterprise. Forget Faraday, you're broadcasting, and accepting lightwave-carrier connections right through the air and the nearest window. Why not just put your servers in a parking lot with a "free" sign on it and call it a day? Mr. T laughs at this protocol; "I pity the foo who thinks this is a good idea!" -- Mr. T
You lucky, lucky bastard. I only WISH I could afford a sweet chunk of iron like the DEC VAX 4K! I'm on a Commodore Vic 20 connected to CompuServe and I can't search shit! In my day we'd have to use our HP programmable calculator connected to a dodgy barcode reader the size of a small aircraft to parse through the pages of a phone book, and we LIKED it that way. Darn, whippersnappers on my lawn, gotta get the rake...
Consider the source. This is the WSJ. They know tech savvy like your grandma knows Katy Perry tunes. Which is, not fucking much. They can't see the "This is Open Source, you frickin' dolts" when they use their Android phone to get a Google search.
Reminds me of the jackasses who say they've never used Unix... Which I beat them down with; you've never picked up a phone? Every central office ESS5 switch is running Unix, and now the phones themselves are running Linuxy kernels to prop up the silly GUIs. The WSJ can't see the forest for the trees are all in the way! 8^) OH NOES!!1!
Having to login to facebook is a waste of time, when you can get the same info from roadside display systems, or via free SMS. It's nice the FB is participating, of course (good for them), but this info is already available in a better to digest system, without the FB GUI getting in the way.
Why? What the hell are they doing out there? List out the state workers "on a road trip" all the time? I can think of CalTrans, but they have a radio network to use, with the ability to call through it, if need be. I can't think of one state agency that needs to have cells phones. NOT ONE. Stop the wasteful thinking. Make a note, then make a call when they get home, or to the office. Perhaps if they made more calls from the office they could cut down on the unnecessary travel too, or pay for the cell phones with their own money, then get reimbursed for the calls each month that are business/state related. No way they all need cells phones.
He bills and is listed as a democrat, but in the real world hardcore left or hardcore right is not going to get any job done. Unless that job is gridlock. I don't think for a second that Meg Whiteman (I spelled it that way for a reason, smartasses) would be able to cut the budget as well as this state's budget needs it. The way she pissed away $140+ million dollars speaks volumes for her wasteful lifestyle and lack of experience. I'm glad to have voted for Obama and for Governor "Moonbeam." THIS is exactly the type of thinking we need to keep California within its budget and an example the red states need to stop the useless political bickering and get the FUCKING JOB DONE.
More budget cuts and more openleaks/wikileaks! Obama did fail in making our government transparent. The "leakers" have fixed this. Brown also is slashing the salaries of many state agencies. More of the same is needed, and this is a step in the right direction. Stop the waste and fraud committed by both sides of the equation.
There's never been a Mac III though, since that number was deemed bad luck after the ill-fated Apple III. I have an Apple III keychain though, it's not yet disintegrated into a pile of dust like the traces on it's namesakes motherboard.:)
The coolest Apple series was the Apple IIc. Portable and a built in floppy drive. I ended up getting into Commodore 64, so I missed out on the early pre-Mac Apple gear. Good times!
I AM and snob, son! I am Data Center Jesus too, but that's a story for IT people. The games on their own are hardly entertaining, and yes, as a real guitar player I find it comical that someone who is not thinks GH/RB are the shit, when their just shit. Play away though, if you love the game, love it! Don't take my word for it, as I've never played them for more than two songs because the idea of tapping a few buttons to pretend to play guitar karaoke is offensive to me. The new midi-controller ones make sense, but the market is dying on these types of over-priced controllers that do a limited job of controlling. At least with a standard controller you can play other games, the guitar/drums controllers are just silly to me. This is an opinion, so get over it, sonny.
You would not believe how many custom controllers I have from Sega and Nintendo that are overpriced and play only one title. When I see a GH/RB guitar controller it reminds me of other wastes of money that I regret. Still, have fun with it, don't listen to me; I only have 2 dozen different handhelds and consoles dating back the Golden Age of Atari and close to 1000 titles on carts and disc. Frankly, I'm surprised these games were as popular as they were and for quite a long time.
Not me. I'm looking forward for this genre of games to die a horrible death. Viacom is bailing on this over-hyped format of useless, overpriced controllers with a marginal game. If you have PS2 Amplitude and Frequency, you don't need a single RB or Guitar Hero game. Of course, it helped to actually be able to play a guitar when I first witnessed this genre. I knew from the moment I saw the five coloured buttons that this was a waste of time and a shallow game experience. Patapon laughs at GH/RB. I feel sorry if you spent more than $8 on a controller or any of the "games." Very sorry.:( Perhaps; You won't get fooled again?
More bullshit from an A. COWARD. Sit down, shut up, and read a fucking book, you turd. I'm a middle of the road, ex-military, type. So, be careful with your claims of "hate speech", son.
This is blue site, for science, technology and making the USA a place for progress. Not a site for your fucked up views on how you need more automatic weapons to save yourself from the "dangerous liberals" who threaten your ignorant view of the world. The mouse and computer you're using to spin your pro-Palin agenda were designed and coded by wacky, left-wing, nerds. Not gun-loving, tobacco chewing, hillbillies. Like I said; read a book, red-tie douche. I'm not very liberal myself, but I served in this country's military so they, and you can spout off using the freedom of speech that now causes real violence when mixed with guns and ignorant thoughts and pictures of public servants with overlaid gun-site graphics. Also, use another login. AC is low-brow, like your forehead. You have a Score of 0. FAIL!!1!
If you're not pro-science, pro-embryonic stem cell, pro-choice, or anti-automatic weapons consider yourself not an American. Period.

Oh, about 6 seconds for that security travesty, I reckon. 4 seconds, if setup by faulty Windows Admins.
HA! Mr. T is still laughing at you, only harder this time.
