I know this situation all too well. I think it's connected with the fact I started work just over a year ago.
Don't worry, Bush'll soon solve that problem.
Oh, and for the love of Eris take "Metroid Prime" off the pile and play it. Best damn 3D action adventure game I have ever, ever played. The bit on the space ship is quite short and dull, get past it and down to the planet and you'll love it.
That's where cheat codes come in. I use cheats to skip the stupid, boring or repetitive parts, and get back to the experiencing new stuff and exploring.
If you don't follow procedure, if you act based on their own initiative, then you take all responsibility for your actions. If you follow the rules, no matter what those rules tell you to do, then the responsibility for what happens falls on those who wrote the rules and made the list. The agent is not responsible.
These guys are more accurately described as anarchists.
Perhaps you could explain the logical connection between a political system favoring self-government by individuals (no rulers), and DDoSing web sites?
You may think that it was clear from your reply, but it wasn't.
Oh, sure, Bush is slightly worse. But if you put two lying two-faced weasels against each other, you get a 50/50 split, just like in 2000.
To achieve a convincing win, the Democrats need a candidate with charisma who actually seems to believe in something and who has been known to take a stand during his previous political career. Saying "Well, he's not Bush" isn't enough to get people to get out there and vote.
Damn right. If they'd picked Dean I'd have been sending money and probably campaigning out on the streets... but Kerry's a lying two-faced weasel and fully paid for with corporate special interest money.
I'm sure I'm not the only one to read that story and think of the movie "Phase IV".

EJB 3.0 in a Nutshell
·
· Score: 4, Informative
One of the biggest failings of EJB 1.x and 2.x was that there was no standardization around deployment descriptors. This made a mockery of "write once deploy anywhere", because every different combination of application server and EJB container required a different mess of XML files before it would accept your EAR file and deploy your application. Naturally, all these files had completely different tools for generating them, and sometimes the tools weren't driveable from standard build tools like ANT.
Now with EJB 3.x they're promising to make a half-assed attempt at solving the problem. Now you'll annotate your Java code, and the vendors will supply tools to turn the standard annotations into their proprietary deployment files.
So, you'll still have to deal with a mess of different tools, and you still won't be able to deploy the same application EAR anywhere, but at least you'll only have one set of syntax to learn to specify the deployment information, and you'll be able to keep the info in the same place as the actual code. So, a minor improvement.
Other stuff looks to be just as muddle-headed as before. Yay, a new syntax for EJB QL, to make it almost exactly the same as the SQL it was supposed to be a simple alternative to. Of course, nobody in their right minds uses entity beans anyway...
Of course, while Hitler may not have been voted in in a Presidential-style election, nevertheless Hitler's NSDAP got the majority (43.9%) in the election of 1933, as well as 35% of the vote in the Presidential election of 1932 (coming second).
The point the poster was trying to make was that things get worse gradually, and the history of Nazi Germany and Hitler's gradual rise to absolute power clearly bears that out.
Right, what happens if you do this is that the bozo that has tabs=4 sometimes uses tabs and sometimes uses spaces, and then when you try to load it into an editor with 8-character tabs, the indentation is all screwy.
Yeah, I'm amazed at what can be achieved on the GameCube, considering it has less power than my ageing Mac. Just shows what software developers can do if they really put their minds to it.
You got modded +4 Funny, but there's a serious point here: Solaris is entirely dependent on UNIX System V intellectual property, which is the code at the heart of the SCO lawsuit. SCO could pull Sun's right to distribute Solaris, and they'd have a very strong case, far stronger than their case against Linux.
Given that we know SCO is rabid and will do anything to try and extort money, I think you'd have to be insane to switch from Linux to Solaris and put yourself at SCO's mercy.
Yeah, I don't think this is really about Linux at all.
Rather, I think Sun has realized that SCO could potentially blow away their ability to sell SysV systems, without warning. And that Novell owns the IP that would protect them against attack by a rabid SCO.

IOP: Input/Output Processor, which since it's basically a PSOne, *does* count.
SPU2: Sound processor.
VU0: Vector processor #1.
VU1: Vector processor #2.
GS: Graphics processor.
IPU: Image processor.
FPU: Floating point processor....the "Emotion Engine" being made up of a bunch of processors. Sony have gradually been reducing the chip count by (for example) integrating the GS, VU units and IPU onto a single chip instead of separate chips, allowing it to cut prices without losing money.
Point is, the architecture is very unlike a PC; I don't know of any PC that has two VPUs and two GPUs. So just talking about the CPU speed in MHz of the EE core is misleading.

Why not? That's how MINIX was used, and Linux was originally intended as a replacement for the MINIX kernel.
Yeah, once Ruby has at least UTF-8 everywhere, I'll be all over it.

"Ja, I vos only following orders..."
Dean signed civil unions into law in Vermont because he said he believed it was the right thing to do, even though it was a very unpopular move.
Kerry, on the other hand, has never done anything that he didn't think would ingratiate himself with the public, as far as I can tell.
...and which party is trying to intimidate "get out the vote" campaigners in Florida? http://www.thismodernworld.com/weblog/mtarchives/w eek_2004_08_15.html#001700

Not to mention that he voted for the frickin' Iraq war.

Some reasons why home users might want to switch to Linux:
It never crashes.
It doesn't need daily patching.
Patches can easily be applied without logging out or rebooting.
It'll save them a couple hundred bucks (once you factor in Windows plus Office).
It handles multiple users properly.
It's faster.
Of course, while Hitler may not have been voted in in a Presidential-style election, nevertheless Hitler's NSDAP got the majority (43.9%) in the election of 1933, as well as 35% of the vote in the Presidential election of 1932 (coming second).

So that you can help support SCO in their valiant fight.
OS X is BSD-based, whereas Solaris is SCO-IP-encumbered System V UNIX.
And this, in turn, is why I won't touch Python.
Scheduled reboot overnight?
Hahahaha!
I guess the idea of an auto update system that doesn't suck dog balls is still too much for Microsoft to deal with.
Yeah, I'm amazed at what can be achieved on the GameCube, considering it has less power than my ageing Mac. Just shows what software developers can do if they really put their minds to it.
Depends on the ThinkPad. Works on 600X, yes. Doesn't work on T23.
Plus, who wants to run SYSV when the intellectual property is controlled by a rabid SCO?

I kinda feel the same way about The Sims. I've tried to get into it, but it just doesn't work for me somehow.
