Is there a line in the Planetarium that says 'On this spot is the GMT line' or something, so if you take a photo on the West side of it, you could say," Look Honey I traveled back in time, but only a couple of seconds"
Kind of like the Four Corners I think it's called, that we have here in the US.
I think $6 *IS* the correct price for the declining value of XP considering it's been EOL'ed repeatedly, and ASUS is just telling us what its current street value is.
Oh THERE's my sarcasm tag, it was on the floor all this time.
But what's in Snowcrash? Isn't that the one with the sword brandishing pizza delivery guy? I held off on reading it because I have this mental block that when a sword/light sabre is involved, it crossed that thin line into fantasy aka space opera. Plus the opinions of some that say that Neal S would write and write and the book will end when he decides to stop. (or something to that effect).
Answer me this: does explorer continue to show ONLY windows partitions? I'm sure many of you will chime in, oh you can add such-and-such and it will display ext3/ext4 and so on; to you people, I say Whoosh
I'm talking about out-of-the-box behavior. Does it continue this denial that other partitions (formed by other OS's) are there, and have data in them that I may want to access while in Windows? Puh-lease, if I'm paying for the Premium Edition, I want Premium Edition, not clearance corner bargain bin Norton wannabe tunnel-vision hey-its-the-90's file managers. So Silverlight's got a Windows Bias? Yawn.
My turn: Why not mention their names but not the crime?
These gentlemen were declared perpetrators of a crime a few years ago, hence their sentence for a crime which shall be unspecified, yet the crime DID decrease the population by one, if that detail interests you.
Has the tech caught up to provide us with shows When we want them, Where we want them? Or will (example only) iphone users or wireless users start feeling the crunch as the bandwidth is being hogged by ex-TV viewers? Will it be less information interchange and more of movie watching?
I don't want the creators of the internet to be rolling in their graves. Oh, wait...
I always thought of it as a poor man's Glengarry Glen Ross
And considering that my pick is an all-male flick, which describes most of the close-quarter workplaces we're accustomed to, feel free to chime in.
Has your webcam ever showed up in Yast's Hardware?
on
openSUSE 11.2 Released

· Score: 1
Or will they forever be classed as the gypsies of the Linux universe, shunned by most distros? If your webcam ever ever showed up in yast, then maybe I shall hold my tongue, and instead start singing hosannas to its superiority. In 11.0, 'Scanners' iirc showed up. Almost, but not quite.
They probably have the look alikes and the wannabee movies. Like a Swedish Steven Seagal that kicks arse and gets all the Swedish chicks...and he runs outta chicks...
Listen, I was about to ask the same question. I am glad this guy beat me to it. But of all the solutions posted, yours actually seems to be the best option.
My second, but more important, question: When can I move in to your place? Basement's fine; and I promise not to bogart the nachos.
Let's see, he already did some 'folding' in the bathroom, while browsing an old old issue of FHM, and there were no aliens in his morning cereal (just spaceships in purply artificial grape flavor). Came to work, punched in, and got started. Yup, on time, and right on schedule. boss.
or maybe they just like to violate licenses - it's ambiguous since their latest product - Rebel EFI - is based on an open source one - FakeSMC - whose license doesn't allow commercial use.
Wow talk about niche market of niche markets -- syadmins and network administrators that like to purchase from guys selling these wares from the trunks of their cars in deserted parking lots at night. And frisk you for wires.
Hell it's probably the spec for a Panasonic Toughbook for all we know. Gorgeous on the outside, and it'll take a bullet for you. No net? Talk about a secure motherf***er...
He can smoke cigarettes, have a permanent 5 o'clock shadow, and can claim KGB credentials.
He uses this thing that he wipes across the board to store it in compressed format; out here we normally call it an "eraser". I don't know if he has a drawer to keep them, and I think (like most so-called 'sysadmins') he keeps using the same one over and over.
With sales at an all time high, Walt Disney is taken out of cryostasis (DisneyCorps' best kept secret invention, masked as animatronics all this time) to lead the revitalized company. Lincoln is also taken out of the freezer to be his second in command. The former president just can't stop the hand waving motion that had been programmed into him.
Add another price category where you'd want half to go the indie developer's preferred charity? Now THAT would really make things quite interesting imo, in a social experiment kind of way.
And to complete the conversation piece, add a miniature chalk outline of where the body of the last sys admin was found: " Yup these bad boys run on their own, so we ditched the last sys admin. He was such a Win fanboi, we had to shut him up somehow..."

I think a couple of employees got their heads together and figured out how to game the System to get a Gaming System.
A likely scenario, boss talking to his team, complete with mock responses:
Keith you will be gaming online. We wont tell you when the alert will come, so better play a couple games.
"Damn!" *wink
You, Stan. Yours will involve a multimedia entertainment mode. See if it interrupts your BluRay viewing.
"I'd have to test it with the new BluRays that just came out. Could you put a note saying, Merry Christmas Darling?"
and so on
Better class OS will have better class Trojans written for it
And with this kind of competition, quality improves, and everyone benefits! Win-win!
Oh, wait...
What are you going to do? Get a bald headed guy with a British accent to play him? I got news for you
pal, baldness will be cured in the 23rd century!

In the offices of the Third Party, there is a buzz in the air:
"What do you mean, Microsoft is buying our company? Us?"
"What did we do to attract their attention?"
"This app that they've included from us was worthy, it seems."
"That's great! We can retire early!"
While in his quiet corner in his cubicle, Mr. CodeWarrior reading /. looks up and realizes what no one
else is:
"They're buying us so we can take the fall--we're the patsy!"
( cue ominous music as he spits out his coffee )

Give me slashdot dammit!
I need the f***ing RSS feeds off CNN's news from Baghdad!

What, an article spread out over (insert insane number of web pages here) pages and NOT ONE for popular recipes??
