Ignoring the names you called me, my point is that this isn't a technology-related topic. I suppose if it is a topic of great interest to tech guys it would make sense (like Star Trek or something), but even then it seems like a stretch. Also, noting the USA flag behind the "Politics" banner, it seems quite USA-centric.
I have chosen to block "Poltics" stories because I have no interested in them, but their is a bug and I am still seeing them (I submitted a bug report on it just now).
If the guy had chosen not to vote for Kerry, would this story have appeared on Slashdot? I think the whole "Politics" section is strange as a Slashdot section.
Listen to Old Time Radio Shows

Listen to old time radio shows (OTR). They offer drama and excitement, and you don't have to take your eyes off the screen. You can download MP3 of shows from many places.
I find it is great when coding, but not as good when reading text like emails.
I agree with the church/religious institution idea.
Pennsylvania has the highest ratio of native residents of any state (80%), so most people have friends they have known since they were kids. It is hard to plug into a network like that, but religious institutions are good for getting to know people because there is a shared set of values, and they have all sorts of events to attend.
If you are lucky, you will find someone who takes a liking to you, and you can go there for dinner all the time.:-)
The computer game idea was good too, but that gets boring after a few weeks (for most people).
I have a Linksys WAP11, and had a similar problem when I moved the WAP11 to my attic. (The signal strength is much better when it is projecting downared.) I was getting inconsistent signal quality during the day (when the attic is hot).
I have a Linksys signal amplifier too, and had that originally on top of the WAP11. I separated the two of them, then proppsed each up so there was air flow above and below each unit. Since then, I have had no problems.
Yes, I am familiar with the Columbia tunnels, though I never saw a link to the 116th street station. There is also supposedly a tunnel under Broadway to Barnard, but I never saw that either.
Most of the tunnels are for heating, so the massive boiler under the Business School can heat all the campus buildings --- quite efficient.
Just as a data point, my official Koyaanisqatsi VHS copy is 4:3. I was going to buy the DVD, but now that I hear they letterboxed a non-letterbox movie, I will stick with the VHS.
Good question. LyX is great. I wrote a book typeset directly from LyX-LaTeX-PDF.
Judging from the screen shots on the web site, TeXmacs is more oriented to mathematical writing while LyX is more for general typesetting. The TeXmacs icons on the tool bar also suggests this.
Wow, good memory. Yes, we changed from two to a few and decided we needed to keep an eye on this. As it turns out, the three of us never agreed in many cases anyway, showing we were still making company-neutral decisions.

Let me guess --- you are not constantly told how humble you are.
PostgreSQL runs on the PS2 too.
I had that problem and fixed it by adding sendmail rules to check the host that sent the mail to my MX.
Check here for the script and my general spam article is here.

This guy is talking TeX DVI output format for documents. I am not sure who else got the joke --- very subtle.

It is amaxing how little security there is.
I have a sendmail file that does this at the bottom of my spam article: http://candle.pha.pa.us/main/writings/spam

This inserts 1 million X's into a text field:
This feature has been in PostgreSQL since April, 2001.
PostgreSQL stores its long column values off-row too.
pg_dump already does live backups. We don't have point-in-time recovery yet, though. That will be in 7.4, due out in six months.
I actually use gocr with great success. It doesn't have a user interface; strinctly command-line, but it works well.
I use sendmail and .forward to forward email messages to my cellphone. It allows me to leave the office during the day and not miss important emails.
I can filter which email messages are forwarded. It is the best feature of my cellphone.

There is a /contrib/pg_upgrade in 7.2 that I wrote. It needs more testing to be bullet-proof but feel free to give it a try.
Actually, the content of the book is at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/awbook.html and there is an article talking about the book-writing process at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/momjian/bookoneyear .html.

Gee, thanks.
The PostgreSQL mascott has no name. We are too busy coding to be taking polls for mascot names.
Why do they have to advertize "free" fix, like they are doing me a favor by not having me pay for it?

Everything Great Bridge did was BSD licensed, just like PostgreSQL.
