    No, drinking to excess is *not* sufficient to define an alcoholic. Necessary, yes. Sufficient, no. And the AMA, and so the rest of clinical psychology, agrees with me.

    No, I'm referring to people who intentionally drink to excess. Those people are drunks. And no, I don't care if you disagree with me. I already know I have more experience than you in this matter, so your opinion really is quite irrelevant. The fact that you keep replying to me is more evidence of you denial than anything.

    Habitual drinkers do NOT get sloshed. Those people are called drunks. But yes, by all means, do continue onwards here. I am *NOT* trolling. I am giving you my real world experience. the OP asked if employers care that prospective employees drink too much, and I replied positively, "yes we do". Go ask your own HR department if they would hire someone who drinks to impairment on purpose.

    So you understand there's such a thing as "too much" but for some reason, intentionally drinking "too much" doesn't throw up a red flag for you? Fine. Give it a few years. I'll be patient. And yes, to the world of clinical psychology, it does matter. Having said all that, you REALLY need to learn to read. Go back and read that definition a few more times. Pay particular attention to the last sentence.

    I believe it took the scene about an hour to work around the official patch.

    No, but during my stint in the military, I did get to serve as a counselor for a while. As you can see from my troll moderations, there's quite a bit of denial taking place here. They will learn soon enough.

    Thanks, YES, I read it, but apparently, MISread it. Most people complaining about the ad are doing so cause their profile says they are married and not looking. I misunderstood the point the post was trying to make in his ambiguity.

    I hate to tell you this, but they are drunks, and reality will catch up to them soon enough.

    EMI is BIOS. Same shit, different name (and implementation).

    Oh, perhaps you were referring to the fact that they were completely different technologies, but, serve the same function?

    Sorry to wake you up to the real world, but yes, only drunks with a real problem get sloshed. And no, I don't mean having a few. I mean getting sloshed. Yes, I am serious. Welcome to reality. Go visit an AA session sometime. Find out what happens to people who think getting sloshed is ok.

    I have been in the hiring position several times, and I can honestly say, I would never hire someone who gets sloshed. Drunks are *not* reliable workers.

    another shameless slashvertisement. Just because someone does something stupid with the wrong type of hardware, that doesn't mean slashdot needs to feed hothardware more ad revenue.

    Everyone in the sane world runs kernel 5.1, build 2600 of course! But you do have an excellent point there. Since windows only has one distribution, I often associate the distribution number as the "version" but with linux there are so many distributions, that the kernel number becomes more significant in establishing a common... something. (train of thought has been derailed at the station)

    That is precisely the type of logic and reasoning that prevents end users from thinking linux is something they might be interested in.

    The problem with the "large number" is that 2.6.26 is extremely bad for market perceptions. It's about image with the end users, not the ability's of the programmers. That said, Linus does not care at all about perception with end users. (and never has and never will)

    Linus... has... jumped the shark. The number versions... his version control insanities... He's no longer Linux's greatest advantage. He's now doing more to hold back the community than anything else. (dear god this is going to hurt the karma)

    Republicrats is just not a useful word. It is way too easily confused with republicans. I know what your intention is with the word, and it achieves that goal when spoken, but in written language it just fails miserably.
