Because the domain is icio.us and www.icio.us looks stupid. Are you only able to type URLs or select bookmarks that start with www? Del.icio.us has worked fine for me in IE, various Mozillas, and both FF 1.0.X and 1.5. No reason to go to Opera or Konqueror.
Yes, but I'm betting there are more than a single one of these posts. With proper time management, if the article submitter is truly serious, 30 minute chunks can be invested into the beginnings of real jobhunt. And don't forget that you can take a day off to interview. Otherwise, you're just not serious about finding a new job.
Your problem is you never learned to say "no, I'm sorry, I don't have the bandwidth for that." Now that you know, what are you going to do about it? Are you going to make the same mistake of not applying limits at the next job? If not, why not start at your current work place. Take a peek at Time Management for System Administrators for tips on what you can do to make your job more comfortable and relieve stress. Looking for a new job is just one way of saving yourself.
Bring back Firefly!! Please! I'm begging you! Do you see what they have on TV these days? Talentless people singing and ice skating and rehashed shows with the same 50-year old wife jokes!! Save me... make it shiny again.
I for one welcome my new Sino masters and their wonderful cuisine! Now, exactly what SPF should I be wearing to survive an Artificial Sun being dropped on my city?
There was a patch submitted a couple of months back for a tabbed view of email messages. I understand that it was probably too close to when the RCs where being published, but what are the plans for this? Is there an extension or possibly a change it will be in a 1.6 version? It just sounds like it could really make the view pane usable for me. Since I am taking care of so many issues at once, I generally have all sorts of email reply windows open. This would make things less cluttered.
On the other hand, when Mozilla browser would crash, it would go down taking the email client with it, and possibly any open messages I was still composing.
Mine crashes consistently when using Yahoo Mail or Google Mail. For everything else it's OK, but there seems to be a memory leak somewhere. I wonder if there is a debug mode that shows mem stats for extensions.
Oh, I'm definitely all for great support contracts, but most places think short-term (to the end of the current quarter) rather than long-term, so they short-change the company on support contracts.
Google Desktop caches a lot of these things for you. It's the fastest way to find old web pages, email, files, or chat logs on any given topic, giving me a complete picture of the events surrounding something I was doing a few months back. Can't live without it now.
We don't use standard parts. Almost everything these days is a single board with ethernet, video, and sound, plus all the other I/O ports you could want. When the board goes, you need another around. We are buying high-end Intel Server boards, so it's not likely that any mom and pop shop will have it.
Today's alternative is to make sure that critical services are functioning in either clusters or farms. This means that the loss of a single machine is not noticed by anyone not wearing a pager. Any other services are not critical and thus not worth the immediate sweat... they get overnight support.
Certainly, you can get 2-hour support, just ask the salesman for a quote next time you're renewing a service contract - but be prepared to pick your jaw up off the ground and possibly suffer from a lifetime of TMJ.
And you are such a big percentage of the DVD drive buying population, that Microsoft and the drive manufacturers should just abandon their plans. Just playing Devil's advocate, since I definitely believe you should be able to play whatever the hell you want in your player. Your concerns will not affect them.
Realistically, you know there will be a patch or some other such workaround for this from the user community. As with any other technology, don't upgrade to Vista until all the problems are resolved for you. Or just don't upgrade at all. As many have noted, there really aren't many benefits left to upgrading from XP to Vista. I'm very comfortable where I am on XP and will be until Microsoft forces me off, at which time one of the open source OSs might finally be on par, or Microsoft has corrected these mistakes in judgement.
Or, you could just trim down the number of blog you're reading. Nothing substitutes RSS' ability to inform you on the spot about new releases or security alerts. Email is such a mess these days that I've removed myself from as many mailing lists as possible. With RSS there is no spam.
Yes, when you are going back and forth editing a document for things like contract negotiation. You do no collaboration with your customers? PDF doesn't lend itself well to that.
Or how about... watch how you tag things!! If you go tagging files "my secret romp with Goatse dude" AND you might be embarrassed about it, then _don't tag it_. However, if you're one to shout that kind of crap out to the world, tag away. I think the old adage still applies: "don't do anything you wouldn't want everyone to see in the news."
It has everything to do with human behavior and nothing to do with computer security. As it is, desktop search tools are opening up whole avenues to quickly find the secret smut on your desktop. Do you have a Google account AND search history enabled? Go to google.com and do a Search History and see what stuff you've been searching on that Google knows about. You shouldn't have done a search on "merkin".
We don't touch this OOo crap lest some incompatibility creep in and embarass us with our customers. Interfacing with customers is one area where I expect business does not play as fast and loose as the open source world would wish. Business is just now getting around to adopting Linux as a server platform after it has been out for over a decade. Don't expect OOo to be adopted any quicker. I expect in seven years to see articles in IT trade rags exclaiming about this precious new free office suite Open Office 10 that they have discovered and how it is so 5VV337 and better than any other. While Firefox is young and popular in the IT world, its rate of adoption seems to have hit a wall.
Another alternate path... take a vacation. If you're the only one there, they will appreciate you so much more when you return. When you do come back, make sure you don't take care of all the issues in one shot. If you try to be superman, you will be treated like superman all the time. Administration takes time and things get prioritized up and down... just make sure you keep a todo list and don't let anything fall through the cracks. Keep track of your time and you'll be able to show that you aren't able to keep up with all the demands.
Of course, I also have to stress that you need to make sure things are as automated as possible. Software install, etc, should be as hands off as possible. Ideally you should be able to do administration of that site from any location, even home.
Of course, percentage wise, he can give whatever the fsck he wants, regardless of what you think. Considering that he is giving 90% of wealth over his lifetime, makes him a good donor. I don't think any of us can come close to that, percentage wise. So maybe STFU.
Oh, wait, ignorance never stopped anyone from posting an anti-Gates or anti-MS rant here on Slashdot.
Way true. I'll be waiting on the sidelines to see which ones work with 3rd party apps like Trillian. I need to talk to people on all sorts of IM networks, but I refuse to use their standalone tools and have 5 different ones running simultaneously. They need to get their act together and work on a unifying standard like they talked about so long ago.

The thing is, FF 1.0.7 was extremely stable. I NEVER had a crash. Now with 1.5 the thing crashes if I ever go near Yahoo Mail or Google Mail.

PFT!... I WISH I had a 50:1 user-admin ration.
I keep asking for a life preserver and they keep throwing cinder blocks.

Ah, unfortunately our engineers receive no such shielding so it's one Office suite for all, and all for that one.
Exactly, nothing really interesting there...just bills. Not much more use for the post office.
In other news, comets actually found to be spreading plagues!
