A CD is lots easier for me to carry around then a thin client is. Kind of hard for me to put a thin client and central server at my friend's house, my dad's house, and the kiosk at school.
We used to use the same trick. Except, we would pull the cable of the cute girls and then wait for the call. We would then have to make a visit to the workstation to meet her (I mean, to fix the problem). We would then patch it back in at the comm closet and look like a hero. It worked great.
Actually, in most states the speed limit is a suggested value for safe travel. Unless the sign has the word "max" on it, in which case it becomes an absolute speed limit. p? Yeah, right. Tell that to the officer when he writes you up for exceeding the speed of a posted zone.
As you can see at the Miss Vermont previous winners page, the winner in 2001 was Amy Johnson, not Katy Johnson, who won in 1999 and is the subject of the article.
Furthermore, it just doesn't make sense for someone to be able to compete twice. Did it not occur to anyone at the NY Times or other papers to check this?
Recently it seems not a day goes by on slashdot without a few Microsoft stories. This supposedly linux, open-source focused site seems awfully preoccupied with Microsoft for some reason, and it's not good.
What is it about "News for Nerds" that means we can only talk about Linux?
I've been looking at buying the DirecTV/Tivo combo, but was under the impression that you could only record the satellite feed. Are you able to record anything from the local antenna as well?
Please explain the popularity of these systems. I can get a emac 800Mgz/256MB/40GB for $849, and it comes with a monitor and better graphics, and the operating system.
How upgradeable is your eMac? How important is that to you?
Why do people feel compelled to point out that NY Times requires a free registration? Just post the URL with the tag '&partner=GOOGLE' at the end of it and be done. It's not that hard, is it?
seriously,./ editors should get their shit straight before posting something like this. if they can't be professional about stating that this guy is an editor of the book, then they should just shut the fuck up so they don't look like totally incompetent asses to the rest of the world.
And this is coming from a person who goes by the handle of "Horse Cock (548609)"?
This is all fine and dandy. The problem with this attitude is that workers in China and India don't share it. They will gladly do your job when your company closes down your plant for cheaper labor.
You know, I should have sympathy for the victims of this, but I don't. The solution is simple; don't use IE! Countless security holes and other problems have occured with IE in the past, yet people still use it.
Geez, no kidding. How hard is it to install Mozilla?
Right. And I'm going to hand my phone over to the pimply 16 year old behind the movie counter and then be laughed at when I ask the theater about these long distance calls on my bill.
Does anyone remember those mats that you could use on Nintendo with games like Track and Field? I had one of those as a child. It seemed like the same good idea that this bike is.... until the second minute of playing the game. Then, it was more work then fun and my friends and I quickly resorted to using our fists instead of our feet. By the second day, the entire mat was stored in the closet never to see the light again.
I think this Reebok bike will become a clothes hanger just like any other exercise bike... unless they figure out how to require it for GTA Vice City play.
It all comes down to what one thinks to be a good reward for their work. If it is good pay, quick career path, and a Porshe by the time you're 30, then being a sysadmin is your dream job...
Sweet, I assume my Porsche will be delivered next year.
Sure, that is easy. And it will work for the first paying customer. Then, all the next guy has to do is sniff his IP address, reconfig my card, and I'm a paying customer too!:)
Well, excuse us for caring. Had it not be for Slashdot, there would be a lot of people who didn't even know about your little mishap. Even Google News lists Slashdot as the major source. So, please forgive us for showing interest and wishing you well.

This is so true. My wife is an Apple fan. When deciding between the mini and the full size iPod, she wanted "the pink one."
throw together a Postgresql/Apache software package?
Sure, it's only 2.8 million words. I'm sure you could throw together a solution quite easily. Here you go... http://www.fourmilab.ch/uscode/26usc/

Uh, couldn't the person with the bad job just wake up a little earlier?
Forgive my cynicism, but we all know that the prices won't drop. There will just be a little added profit for the corporations.

NY Times isn't exactly known for their accuracy these days. http://www.time.com/time/columnist/poniewozik/art

Okin indicates the strategy may take 5 to 15 years
15 years? What M$ product is around today that will be around 15 years from now?
Thanks, but no. That blue stuff always stains my teeth.
