At last I will be able to expense beer.
Quick overpriced beer in the airport lounge, and my phone is back to a full charge.
How is that not a legitimate work expense?
Possibly interesting side note.
I was in a really bad mood, when I received one of those "You have won" calls. As I said I was in a bad mood, so I thought I would take it out on a telemarketer. So I stayed on the line, waiting for someone to yell at. No one came on the line, and after a few minutes they just dropped the call.
Not sure how they make any money when if you don't hangup on them, they hangup on you.
I am always unpleasant and abusive to telemarketers. I figure I am encouraging them to go look for another job. (It's just one of the public services I provide.)
My girlfriends dog loses her shit when she sees the dog in the mirror. It is really quite entertaining.
This happens often enough that we have given the mirror dog a name.
I have one, and it is pretty good for what it is. I think I am going to pass it down to my mother.
Just about no effort to admin the machine, fast enough, and simple.
I see Ballmer as the captain of a large, very slowly sinking, rudderless ship.
Someone needs to patch up the holes, find a pump, and build a rudder. I just don't see Ballmer doing any of those things.
I just heard last week about HIV being used in cancer treatment as well. It seems like HIV is turning out to be a very useful virus. Interesting that something so destructive can be used for so much good. Perhaps a metaphor for something.
Have you ever tried to cut away one of those wimpy little Kensington clips? I had to do it once. It took forever, and the heat generated melted the plastic on the side of the laptop. CFO lost her key.
That wimpy little Kensington clip is tougher than it looks.
I agree completely. Enough sequels, updated versions, rereleases, 3D versions, reimaginings. reboots, reloads, and blatant knockoffs.
Do something original!
I believe a water gun full of liquefied vegemite, would qualify as a weapon of mass destruction. Most people and countries would be afraid to go there.
You bastard! I had blocked that out! I had completely forgotten about that horrible movie, and you brought it all back! I curse you and your progeny for a thousand generations!!!
Back to therapy for me.
I have heard a few people doing a "broadcast" but they usually stop every few minutes to see if anyone wants to reply. There used to be this guy I would pick up on my HF rig from time to time ranting about the government. He was rather entertaining. He never made it clear which government he was bitching about.
There is a flea market near my house that sometimes has some interesting old tech items. It also has the CoS people giving 'personality tests', I occasionally think about taking the test, treating it like a game going for the high score.
I would have them running in fear from me.:)
Then i come to my senses.
I was going to order one, but with the early reports of problems with controllers, and wireless. Then thinking about summer coming soon and wanting to get outside and enjoy the nice weather. I decided to hold off, and think about it again in September.
Maybe I will get myself one for my birthday.
Slashdot Mirror
So what is that is Linux Servers?
What, about 6... Maybe 7.

Heard of them. Never see one.
I don't think they have got out of the POC stage, yet.
I prefer Reverse Phrenology. The science of changing behaviour and personality by changing the bumps on the head.
You make this sound like a bad idea, but you have never met my accountant. ;) Probably a lot safer than fucking a Bangkok prostitute too.
I prefer DBAN personally. I have never seen a virus or malware that could survive a good hard cleaning with DBAN.

That is not a rudder. It used to be a chair. :)

I think they should outsource the CEO job. I hear Carly Fiorina is looking for a new challenge. :)
You are my crumple zone. :)

Just like ebay ratings.
The machine that convinced me programming was a fum hobby was a Timex Sinclair 1000, with a Zilog Z80A @ 3.25 MHz, and 2k of RAM
486, Bah humbug.
I ran Lotus Symphony on a 286. It was the job that convinced me to go back to school for a career in IT.
Also, get off my lawn.
