It would appear that Ebola is not "News for Nerds". Geeks are likely only interested in diseases that are contracted other than by human proximity or contact.
- Take home Sun Blade
- Install Solaris 9
- Realize that getting the box to halfway resemble the functionality of your Sun box at work would take two onsite admins...
- Take the Sun Blade back
- Buy an Apple (cause its Unix and media capable)
- Profit$$
Remember, there's a reason that your local Sun admin doesn't have a Sun box at his house... (s)he's worked darn hard at getting the applications working off the network at work. Why would they want have to duplicate their efforts at home on the hardware and network they can afford? For what? It's just cheaper and easier to go Apple with the same satisfaction. Of course, if Linux and OSX did not exist and Windows was the only option... Sun employees would have Sun boxes at home. Even if it was just a Sparc2 running SunOS 4.1.1.
Is it just me, or are others beginning to
equate these two companies? Seems that their business model is based on litigation and nefarious methods. Only difference I have seen is that Rambus at least had some analysts pumping their stock.
SCO has a better chance of finding Saddam in their backyard than surviving this mess...
...with psychological disorders. Virtual treatment for phobias has been shown to have a positive effect.
With weapons, Counter-Strike would be a major downer for these guys. I remember my newbie experience. Went online and got my butt shot off by some guy called "The Pope". Now I'm not Catholic, but... being killed repeatedly by "The Pope"!? Yes, it left a scar.
Without weapons, it will still cause depression. These guys will get stuck in some level and unable to get out, will wrap the mouse cord around their neck.
But it's just something they learned from Microsoft. (go ahead an call it a troll). I'll buy music and software from companies that treat my computer like it is MY COMPUTER! Every piece of software should have a basic and advanced installation so that users can call the shots if they want to.
I rarely complain about the install problems with Redhat or Mandrake because they enable me to go around the problems in advanced text mode. That is just smart programming. Don't mess with your base of knowledgeable users. Give them a way out, and all will be happy.
Google is dead. Microsoft's nefarious plot is to use YOUR Windows box as an arm of the MSN search engine. Every night the cache of all the places you visit will be uploaded to the MSN search engine for indexing. I'm sure it's buried in the EULA somewhere...
To my understanding, Google is the only one that has the old usenet archives available for searching via groups.google.com. What will MSN do for that? I spend half my search time in groups.google.com. Sure, Microsoft can default Windows users to MSN, but the Apple/Unix/Linux/BSD userbase is growing, and they will likely all use Google. (And, every Windows machine I set up for friends/family gets Google as default and the googlebar installed).
I am still waiting for google to come out with the geek matchmaker site.... oogle.google.com
is backed by RIAA. Don't support it either. Made me sick with the dude came out and gave her the gold record.... means she might have broken even. Though I doubt her contract via American Idol gives her much of anything at all.
Agreed. I have only bought direct from local artists for a few years now. Screw these greedy middle men. I also believe ClearChannel is not a good thing for our radio markets. Listen and support your local stations. PBS, etc.
Not only with that statement, but the very means they use to 'calcuate' the piracy rate. They're assuming a 39% piracy rate basically because 39% of people who demand (stated that they want to or will buy or who actually buy) software didn't buy a copy. They're assuming that EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE is a pirate.
The BSA is just measuring software lust. I would have to agree that it is around 39%. There's bunch of crap out there with a price on it that you couldn't give me.
ALERT: The Chinese are planning to take the Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction to the Moon. Bomb the Moon out of orbit! Dig up all the Afghan and Iraqi mines and plant them on the moon. No one else can go there (provided we really have been there...)! We own the moon!
P.S. We plan on taking the SDI lasers and using them to burn large American advertisements on the moon...
When someone says that nothing comes close to their particular weapon of choice, all the boys (and women) with bigger guns will just crawl out of the woodwork. So I'm crawling out with a.300 Weatherby. Yes, it's too big for real hunting...
Load this with a 110 grain bullet, enough 4350 powder to achieve ~4000 fps, (with around 3900 ft lbs at the muzzle), and you can have an interesting experience shooting inanimate varmits (faulty components) or live varmits. You shooting experience is enhanced by saying 'varmit' with a western accent. This load vaporizes 5 gallon buckets of water and animals that are roughly the same body mass.... say like a coyote or wolf^H^H^H^H. Just go pick up the skin and its ready to tan.
Geocities should have put access to the page up for sale to the highest bidder. I am sure their EULA would have allowed for that. Then all the anti-virus companies could bid for it. (However, we know that some James Bond villain would have won the bid.)
unless she signed a release, aren't they technically hers? Or am I wrong about this (seriously)?
Your sentence leaves minds to wander/wonder exactly what you refer to as 'they'! After looking at the picture very closely. I'm pretty sure they are hers. And as for signing a release...(in the case that they aren't hers)... that's between her and Dow-Corning and none of our business.
I knew it, Opteron is the silver bullet Linux needed to get on the desktop. It is the future processor for Apple machines. It is the first processor that is self aware....

Beating a DNA Logic game is not a problem... or so says O.J. Simpson and crew.
I come from the tribe of Smith. We already breed like rabbits...
Y'all raise your hand if you think SCO or Microsoft did this or had reasonable intent to do it...
Torch for you... fork for you... shovel for you...

Did they find any of the Timex watches from the last shuttle ride to be "still ticking". Just curious. Might make a good ad for Timex.

Sorry. My blood was pumping.
The above diatribe is flamebait if I've ever seen it.
