Let them go ahead with this idea, but by the time they complete their literature survey, they will probably find out there is very little that they need to change.
Shouldn't you have included a) Insert Mwahahahaha! b) Insert 'I pity the fool...'
Personally, I'm all for fat pipes to view all that anime goodness. Happy Sunshine Love City for Maximum Joy for everyone!
...and a Tshirt that says I beat Gary Kasparov in 6 games
Seriously, though, I'd program it with the DOOM guy's face so that I'd know when one of my moves would've made him bleed from the nose, Hurt Me Plenty-style.
I think I have found the cause of the so-called elitist attitude that outsiders have so often accused us of. It's in the kernel, and those seemingly harmless comments like the one above whiz by but subliminally plant themselves while we watch the boot messages scroll speedily by. Faster boot times matter not, but the rest of us that go and grab a cup of coffee during the boot process are less harsh (e.g. RTM! F***in n00b!) on IRC and in the forums.
Totally agree with you on the 'settling down' bit, because to me it would seem that Mr Harried WorkerBee was either cramming or in serious need for more planning or organizing in his work. Otherwise, if one does open up the laptop it should be for relaxing or staying in touch with personal friends and acquaintances--THAT kind of catching up, especially on a 12+ hour flight would be some sort of de-pressurization or decompression for me.
To make things interesting though, for those business contacts, I would for my last email before the trip, toss some sort of 'grenade' or bombshell so that they have to really WORK while I am out of touch: BTW, have you finalized those TPS reports, did you see that error on page 7? And then enjoy a Bloody Mary, with all that altitude...
Please. To have to interface well with payroll, and have applicant tracking, maybe even finance and stock or other non-monetary compensation, AND block Zonk's posts is reaallly asking a bit too much of any HR management software, open source or otherwise.
I dunno...are there any interrogators there with him? Brutal ones, like Max, who is blind and goes by the sense of touch, and Bruno, who believes everything he reads in ze New York Post?
We have computer rentals where I work, and once in a while I am horrified when I see someone type in the URL on their browser, then reach for the mouse to click GO instead of just hitting Return.
I have trouble reading code whether it's 80 columns or 100 or even 120 columns. Maybe because I have my Eterm background showing Cindy Crawford looking at me seductively while covering her bare chest with her arms folded.

Uh-oh for some strange reason, the men have come out of their houses...
And today's captcha is 'maleness'
he can always go back in the slammer and have even more restricted access.
Or even a faint glimmer of the remote possibility of getting the privilege of conjugal visits.
Oh, wait. Ubuntu? check. File upload? check. Star Wars movie? check.
I guess he'll be 'shakin hands with the wookie' then...

Why did the NASA test subjects choose to sit in the back all the time? Just because they took the term luxury sedan way too seriously?

It's a geek, and he's got a girlfriend, and she's not pixellated... of course this is major news!

How has the built-in wifi support fared on Linux on Lenovos lately? Were you able to use Linux/OSS drivers, and steered clear of ndiswrapper?
Just curious.
No, no, no...the fact that it *can* shoot back and say, You want some o this? sweetens the deal.
THEY can handle YOU
just to get that out of the way. And for once, the grammar nazis won't even wince.
You must be an American
Damn, that's a requirement for a second PhD?!
Oh wait...
Have lots of isopropyl alcohol handy.
Does the brand of alcohol have to be that specific/repugnant?
Well I believe in God, and the only thing that scares me is Keyser Soze. Standing in front of a rack of servers.

show you the drink holder (I think coke, sorry can't find a link)
You have to show us a link??? Just tell these guys to type 'eject' at the prompt, n00b!
You get to buy a CD with all the crapware!
In case you miss them, or your friends have been annoying you by bragging about all the preloaded sh*t that they got 'in a bundled package'
And an additional $5 for a recovery CD, when you've regained your sanity.
They don't do it for money (or pussy lol)
I guess that's it for me, then. It was nice, guys, but I guess it's time to move on.
If this is the alternative to car analogies, I'll stick with the cars, thankyouverymuch.
Oh, wait we're talking about WMA. Please accept my apologies.

Would like to know if they had something on a board that said:
Projected lifespan/duration (estimated): 90 days
Actual: 3 years AND COUNTING!!
That is quite the feat, and you guys deserve to frame THAT and hang it on a wall. Well done!
(Also, a poster of a sandstorm hanging nearby, with a couple of darts thrown at it =)
