I have yet to find a Linux email client that supports it, although my Android phone does it just fine. I tried Evolution once. Initial setup was most interesting. It wanted me to fill out fields with single character labels (???). Googling yielded little more than instructions that were years old and outdated for the newest version. I still don't know what it wanted and it crashed as I was guessing. It was immediately deemed worthless and uninstalled. When I'm using Linux, I'm using Thunderbird, but I can't access my school's email server because Thunderbird can't do Exchange.
... it doesn't appear completely bad that Google should react to take down notices for images that are not even being shown by the original site anymore.
So far, yours is the only comment that I think actually makes a good case in favor of the plaintiff. Google caches thumbnails of images that are no longer hosted on the original site. Their servers have a lot of such broken links. I wonder if they use spiders to occasionally go back and validate these links. Such a check could only help Google: 1) their search results become more accurate and 2) they free up space that was used to store thumbnails that no longer go anywhere.
The discrepencies so far have been in favor of Obama. I've seen two distinct stories about voting machines registering Obama when people tried to vote for Romney. Poll workers blame it on "bad calibration". How the hell does that happen? I can write program in about 10 minutes for something as simple as "choose A or B".
I don't trust electronic voting of any kind. As long as a loosly-knit crew like Anonymous can hack the DOD, I prefer paper ballots whether it be in person or by US Mail.
The same excuse we always get. If Bush were still in charge, the/. readers would be cursing him. But since it's your guy, it's the lame "well they're ALL corrupt".
Android is secure enough as it is. My HTC will check with me and double check before it installs any apk. As long as there are people who can be suckered into installing unknown software, we will always have viruses.
Exactly. Windows 7 is still very new and works wonderfully. I was happy with Windows 95 until 2001 when I finally got XP. Windows XP worked well until I replaced it with Windows 7 in 2010. There is nothing Windows 8 offers that make me want it. I'll pass.
What they used to give me at no extra charge (tethering/hot-spot) they now charge $15/mo. I don't even use it very often but I DO use it. Most of the time, I don't even come close to my high-speed data limit (5 GB) either.
Makes sense. I have analog cable now but when I had digital, the STB fed an analog signal to the PC's tuner card via RG-59 coaxial cable just like a STB feeds an analog signal to a TV. The tuner card was always set to channel 3 (like a TV). Once that signal is analog, it's recordable. If you subscribe to an encrypted channel, the STB decrypts it and the resulting signal to the TV is just as analog as the Weather Channel.
To post to which you're responding was mine. I guess I wasn't logged in.
ANYWAY...
I don't know what an HTPC or STB is but I built my main PC and included a Hauppauge tuner card (readily available at Fry's or anywhere else that sells internal hardware) and Media Center records whatever I want. Never had a problem.
In other words, to answer the question: you teach sales people the same way you teach anyone else. Some can do it, some can't. You'll find out soon enough. But salespeople, who understand the sales process, will be the ones you want if you're developing software that salespeople use in the field.
It's true for any industry. Designing software for airline pilots? Hang out with them and see what they want and need. Go back and code it. Done.
I learned BASIC when I was 10 years old in the 1980s. I'm no master, but working on Java and C# now. I've also been a salesman for 15 years.
I've hated every minute of it, but I was good at it. That's because a good salesman "feels out" his customers for what their wants and needs are. He then presents his product in such a way that the customer would feel like a fool not to buy it.
That is sales, in a nutshell. ANYBODY with a personality can do it. It just takes experience.
The same can be said for software development. It takes experience to make a good code monkey. Anyone who applies himself to learn the ways of the binary machine can can learn learn to write code. Some are better than others, but we all depend upon each other.
In other words, I don't give a shit if you've pushed an accountant's pencil or washed cars for the past 10 years. Can you make a computer do what I want? Can you UNDERSTAND what I really want? [a good salesman can...] Then you're the man for the job and I don't care where you spent the past 10 years of your life [as long as it wasn't in prison for ID theft, etc....]

Ever since they kicked out the consumer.
This whole discussion is about as ridiculous as the flying cars we were supposed to have 20 years ago.
MS Sync does this very well.
He doesn't deserve this attention.
Very interesting, thanks!

Must.
Not.
Offend.
Anyone.
(unless the target is conservative Christian white males)
FTFY.
I hear the Borg are looking into this.
This is true. I've worked in advertising and $3000 ain't bad. Sounds like a temper-tantrum to me.
"The Mavs are considering moving to Tumblr or to new MySpace as primary site."
That's like going from primetime TV to midnight re-runs.
Another great reason for patent/copyright law reform.

A good platform for Unity.
I'll gladly take that over 4 more years of Obama.

If your company agrees, that is.

Here's an example of something easy to remember and hard to crack:
Take any sentence with 8+ words that includes one or two numbers. Just use the first character. Thrown in a CAP or two.
Example:
My 9 inch Cock is bigger than your puny pecker.

Testing now. If it syncs with my computers, I may be switching from Dolphin.
