I never said refuse to use a timesheet. I'd bring the issue up to management until they fixed it though. Cross-platform and cross-browser compatibility is one thing that almost everyone has got now, and something that shouldn't be overlooked, especially if it sticks you to one OS, one you wouldn't use even if a bear threatened you.

That should be shot. And programmed properly. If I'd come across one, if it was not vital, I'd refuse to use it. On accounts of it forcing me to use an insecure browser. If it was vital, I'd complain loudly and demand to use someone else's PC for it.
Sound disrespectful? Not as disrespectful as the programmers.
I hear the Spanish have this already. Their policy is to add a premium to MP3 players, phones, computers etc of a few euros, so that they can download any copyrighted music to it and play it for free whilst paying for it using the premium! Clever, huh?
Is there a Linux port? I'd love some malware. I miss having people trying to install software on my computer without permission! Maybe I should go get a Mac.
I've found that iTunes is very slow on XP with 1 gig of ram. On VBox Hackintosh, it's a lot quicker, and even dare I say it, smoother. It's nicely linked into the OS (though syncing to an iPod is slow as hell). The problem is making a Windows version - lots of different OS code, probably a load of UNIX code they have to replicate and convert badly into windows syscalls when it already has the same calls but incompatible. This is probably some of the reason why they didn't want a Linux version - it'd have to be another version to maintain, plus Linux is quite different from Mach. But the userspace stuff is not surprisingly similar. I think they just couldn't keep up with the flak. It's slow enough already.
As not a fan of Apple or iTunes, I'll give them that their products work well together, just not with anyone else's. And as for iOS updates? Asking Apple if that's okay? Not allowing downgrades? I think not. It's MY iPod after all.
I hope you've found my speech useful. Yours sincerely, the guy who wrote it.
They complained you had to click Start to shut down.
They said it took too long.
Why do MS want it? They just want everything. They probably want everyone to hate them, too.
If they want everything and want everyone else to have nothing, they want to force everyone to use their system. Seems a bit anti intuitive to me. I don't like companies that piss about like that, that's why I'm fed up with them, and won't buy from them ever. They should innovate, not shut everyone else down. They think they'll get money, but the real way to make money is to make something better, something more competitive. something more likely to make people actually want it, not to force them.
Anyway, how simple is... terminate tasks, sync disks, unmount, send shutdown signal? I can do it in 5 seconds.
I think Oracle are jolly rotten. I wish the very best to the Illumos team the very best of luck, and the continuation of development.
This is pivotal, as ZFS is just spiffing although its license is less than optimal.
I'd join in if I could program in C.
What are we counting here? A lot of people are behind routers, are we counting individual computers allowed to access the Internet, or just the routers? Are we counting VMs?
Hey, by the title of this story on my news reader, it looked like the Earth was going to have a massive disaster, like that asteroid. I thought we were screwed. Instead, it's just about him saying we should get out more. Boooring.

I suppose the researchers were happy, then. I suppose they were government funded? Who else would pay for that kind of research?
I've said it once, and I'll say it again: MONEY CAN'T BUY YOU HAPPINESS. You just need someone to love.

So... how will putting phone-scannable barcodes on stamps actually help? And what do I need it for?

I'm as surprised as you. I think only people who have no idea about security use it. And not even more of them.

Sorry, wrong convo.
But they can never fix the design. Damn symmetrical-looking connectors.

Good day!
At least we don't have to wait for four Tuesdays' time for the fix...
You're holding it wrong.

P = NP only if N is 1. BS! So therefore for most cases, P != NP. Chew on that, maths.
I was... but then I gave up, because I don't really care. Especially about names and IDs. Hmm, I wonder if I'm in there?
Debian's PPC port works well, I used it on an iMac G3.
Well, I have 6 cores in my processor, and that's jolly nice. Means I can do make -j6 and game and virtualise. Isn't that nice?
Could y'all stop it with the penis jokes, I think you're all jolly immature. Now that's not so nice.
Incidentally, I appear to have turned into Ardal O'Hanlon. What do you think of that? Do ye like it? I hope ye do. 'Cos it's a lot of effort, y'know?
Are there any OSes that don't support this? (e.g. really old?) Also, first post? :P Possibly.
someone stealing my cookies. They're MY cookies. -_-
Yeah, but who would? They're just bored kids.
No, should be cracking more than anything.
"LULZ OWNED" is all we'd see, and we'd laugh, and life would go on.
Gosh, I remember half of these from the 2.6.28 days. You're not still running that, are you? Dear, dear me.
