Now what's wrong with the good old 8 digit hexadecimal display with the collowing keypad?
So you say you want a fancy VT220 terminal now.
And then you complains when you have altered the speed on the terminal to 19200 baud, when it is clear that we only support up to 9600 baud on the serial lines to your offices.
Now put it back to 9600 or I'll give you a chair in front of the computer in the computerroom looking at the hexadecimal display, with the AC blowing cold air down your back.
I had some domains there in the past. I guess that any other are better than them.
Would NSI even bother to send at least a email when you needed to renew your domain. The answer is no. At least a email to the contact person would be nice. So I tried speednames.com and they did the job for me. It took me 10 minutes to register a domain. it takes me 3 minutes to change ip's etc.(and 4 weeks to find a available domain). They don't have a lot of features but, they have what I need and it works without having to use a lot of confusing menus etc.
Well, I thought the same thing but then realized that it was a very true to life model, they had choosen. The only one who would be seen wearing a belt like this.
Now that is a good question, the reason I have one I that I work in a company in Denmark that imports them. So for me it was just a matter of typing in a order for myself and then going down to the shippingroom and pick it up.
I just got a SX6000 and I am testing it a bit because I want to put some drives on it and make a RAID 5 disk. I've known people having problems with Promise controllers dropping disks in the RAID, so I have installed 2 Western Digital 80GB and striped them. That way I figure if it's not stable, I am sure to know about it.:)
When I am done testing it, I'd really like to install FreeBSD on it, but sadly there's not yet any drivers for it. Read on Google that Mark Smith is willing to do a driver for it if he gets the hardware and if I could, I'd be more that happy to send a sample.:-)
Anyway the driver status was that W2K was easy to install with the driver disk, but once that was tried, I installed RedHat 7.1 because there was drivers for it. and it seemed to work, execpt for for the extensive many hours it took for the drivers check that the RAID was clean with no partitions.
I then discovered that if I choose "other" as operating system in the bios, RedHat 7.2 install could see it as a i2o controller. Mandrake installed failed for me. But I am also a "new" Linux user since FreeBSD has been my preferred choice but since it does not support it, I install Linux instead.
So before you go ahead, make sure that there's drivers for your os.:-)
The SX6000 is a nice "low end" RAID, but it lacks the features of the "real" ones such as adding another disk to a existing RAID. I was not able to do that from the BIOS or the Windooze Utility(which is not available from Linux, and I don't think that it works from Wine:-) )
Hope you could use my input.
Uhm next weekend I'll get a few more disks and try a RAID 5 setup. And I really like to see how it reacts on different size disks when the time comes where one drive fails and you can't the just that model that anymore. But still if it won't drop the drives on me, I think it a great controller considered the price..
Now that I can talk over the net. Does anyone know the protocol. I'd really like to do some reverse ingeneering on it.
Can you give it a IP address?
Imagine a bunch of these with a IP V6 adr. each and all of them on the internet..
Maybe then that we realize that Cyberdyne systems in real life was Sony.:-)
The patcher is right...modern CPUs (for my industry) have PLENTY of power. What I hate is having to run some third party app for a client (even in a Linux environment) that *might* affect the whole machine. This patch holds the promise that I won't have as much to worry about.
Oh yeah, how come I keep getting those mails from the sysadmin with "overuse of CGI" in the subject line, dammit.:-)
Oh well, maybe they shouldn't host 800 sites on one machine.
Thas is good news. If there's one thing that I don't need it is the choice of two trees.
Now if only I could get Mandrake to work on my i2o contoller, only RedHat72 seems to work for me but it is having problems booting on the 300gb raid after install. fscking disk geometry, it always gives me problems.:-)

I guess someone are lucky, I don't think that I have had a day like that for a year.
Why oh why must I work for a IT company that does not suffer from the downtrend. Sigh..:-)
What would be really cool was if all the "games" could talk to each other so you could have a huge central server which people conneted to. So both from the fighter pilots to the cannon fodder was connected in the same virtual world.
That would be great, and perhaps what we need to extend the life of online action games today. Combine different types of games, you would have groundtroops, like in Counter-Strike but you would also have heli support where the heli-sim is just as advanced as any other sim.
Yummy, oh well, now I know how I should spend the weekend, designing a protocol/server for a game like that..
No I can't verify it as I don't have access to the members database.:-) I have read it on the internet(so it must be true) and from a documentary about the Simpsons that I saw on TV, but then again, they might have been surfing the net too.

Indeed they did, but Diznee did not have Matt Groening, so of course it would have to be a lousy onesided PC story. Would not surprice me if it ended with the words ",and DON'T do drugs!".
Remember he also did The Cartridge Family where Homer buys a gun to protect his family and joins NRA, driving Marge and the kids away from home whith his careless use of firearms:-)
(note that Matt is not against NRA, he is a member)
That show was not shown in some countries even though it in the end displays that the local members of the NRA in Springfield,?? are not a bunch of trigger happy dudes but cancels Homers membership.
This only shows the difference between the two series, where (in my opinion) "Proud Family" is nothing more than a money making scheme, The Simpsons has a lot more substance even though they got hit pretty bad by the PC wave.
No more will we see lines like this from Selma's Choice:

Oh, I guess I got a bit carried away here. What I am trying to say here is that don't forget where the series are coming for and what do expect. C'mon Disney. The alltime fluffy feelgod company? The rewrote the ending of "The Little Mermaid", they would never have made true to the story of Hans Christian Andersen where she dies.

I went by our cinema, mentioned in the piece, last Thursday and saw the first ones camping there. So I figured that I'd rather wait a bit until the queue time for tickets is limited to a voice in my phone telling me that I am number 2 in the queue.:-)
instead of that moneygrabbing monopoly that is Linux! The FreeBSD dæmon would also make a better mascot!:-)
I know it, and you know it, Linux is evil!
.. wait, I might have got something wrong here, but since the post is about a sports page, I have a hard time relating to it. Ah, now I remember, it is Micro$oft that is evil.. almost slipped there...("note to self: M$ is evil not Linux, Linux=good").
