I overheard a help desk guy where I work have this happen to him about a week ago. He was doing password phone support, and he heard over the phone "Honey, where's the any key". They also used Google as a browser.

When I was a kid, a long long time ago, I asked my mother if they had bikes when she was a kid. She said of course they did. And I unthinkingly said, oh yeah, they had them in the 1800s.
I've seen computing go from such as IBM mainframes (still relevant) to the Commodore PC to the IBM PC to Compaq, etc. And software has been doing the same. I didn't have enough money to buy an Apple when you first came out (I remember and dreamed lol), nor did I have the money when MS or Google offered up their stock. What area of future growth would you advise investing in? And yeah, I was advised circa 1999 I'm older than dirt;)
If I owned an amusement park, I'd design a ride for you. Completely safe, but rusty looking, broken down looking, and staffed by people acting clueless;) And delays before boarding due to "technical reasons". Maybe a few press releases about past accidents being settled out of court. Sort of like some software projects.
I've lost track over the past 40 years or so, all the OS's I've used. Sort of like programming languages. Windows popularized home PCs. Didit/does it suck for security? Yes. Every OS has holes though, even if it is social engineering (as you know). Hate Windows? Nope., preferred Desqview when Windows 3 came out. Hate MS? A bit. MS business practices? Absolutely hate. And I have friends who work there (and others at RH)
Anyways, I vote for a pink unicorn with a rainbow out it's butt for a logo, sorta a Linux on the desktop theme.:)
I did that sorta, for a few years about 25 years ago, avoiding an ex-wife (no kids). Move a thousand miles away. Change career (I did Dirty Jobs type stuff for a few years). Accidently give a wrong SSN when opening a bank account, or have a good friend cash paychecks like I did. Then got back to my career. Real easy back then actually. My ex is now an RN and MD far away, and I don't have suddenly have money out of my bank accounts.
I wish I had not just used up my 15 modpoints on other articles. People complain about moderators, but I sometimes wish I could moderate a comment as -1 stupid, or in your case, -5 juvenile.
Well, I live about two miles from Paul Ryan. I've never voted for him or met him. The two major bills he's had passed involved repealing some minor tax on arrows, and renaming the local post office. He does have a lot of support from rich outsiders and local rednecks. Janesville back in 1992 had a KKK rally, and there are people who ride town with Confederate flags fling from their pickup. If you go to www.gazettextra.com there are the usual Tea Party shills, trolls, and astroturfing going on since the failed Walker recall started. Well, maybe since Obama got elected. I consider Ryan as a nice guy personally based on his local rep, but a Palin clone who knows grammar.
Sorry AC. We are talking about first level support, Yes, IBM sometimes, usually, does good support after the call, I know if it is critical, i will ask for the national duty manager again (if such still exists), Anyways, after 30+ years, I'm finding Oracle better then IBM when it comes to service. (I was told I'm older than dirt on irc in the 90s) I should point out IBM's rep: until 999 out of 1,000 report a problem, it hasn't happened. See 3rd party documentation such as for GSERV FLEE/FLIM from the 70s.
Anyways AC, IBM will have any problem solved because we expect our uptime to be 100%. And we get real close. Topic though is call center.
Hello, my name is Debbie (yeah, right lady). Welcome to 1-800-IBM-SERV (said in a thick accent over a scratchy VOIP line). Even Oracle does better, with world wide call center support. I deal with support vendors every day. IBM has had the worst call center support for years. Oracle is even better than IBM. At least all the local support guys are usually good. I just have to get the ticket opened, then layer explain to the CE (old terminology) or FE, what the issue is. Not that Oracle is so great. Our platinum contract means they call every few hours, to "verify" information they were already given. That way they keep in contract compliance. But Oracle second level support is pretty good in my experience. I've talked to people from Ireland, India. and Rumania iirc, and gotten way better phone support than IBM. Debbie: Z as in zebra, O as in oscar, S as in sam. Dang. I think my wife has better luck talking to Charter than anyone at work talking to a vendor.
99.9% of TB cases are treated as an out patient. When i got sick, I was put in a pressurized room for a few days while they confirmed the diagnosis. Once I started on the TB antibiotics I was allowed to be around other people. Having a dedicated hospital just for TB is unneeded.

I knew there was a reason for having a low UID here! (Pity my kid isn't tech savvy despite using Apple laptops).

Now that would have been epic :)
I'd mod you up, just for the irony.
A better question is, would Mark Shuttleworth do a joint space endeavor with Elon Musk, Paul Allen, Richard Garriot, and John Carmack?

Don't worry. The article will be re-posted tomorrow ;)

Where I live it's an automatic ticket if you slide off the road in a snow storm. It's proof you were driving too fast for conditions, even at 5 mph.
Nope. Just dating yourself ;)
AK-47 and ammo over in the fridge ---> ;)
