  1. Re:This is very bad design on VMware Causes Second Outage While Recovering From First · · Score: 3, Funny

    Sounds like they could benefit from a virtual environment to test things out in.

  2. Re:what id like to see on US Couple Arrested For Transmitting Nuclear Secrets In Sting Operation · · Score: 1

    After this last year, I might not be as amazed as you think.

  3. Re:Next step: on AMD Hates Laptop Stickers As Much As You Do · · Score: 1

    Yes, I see. This make perfect sense. What I want is a better way to partition my drives so I need to follow the 'encrypted' path. Can't imagine why I missed that...

    Ever heard of LVM? Well, OK, maybe *YOU* have... but the Ubuntu folks sure haven't.

  5. Re:Rockstar is the evildoer in this situation, but on Rockstar Employees Badly Overworked, Say Wives · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The problem really isn't R* or EA (not that they're faultless here), it's the employees. If you LOVE games so much that you're willing to sell you soul to a studio, then who's fault is it? It's like the battered wife that LOVE the man so much that she'll keep going back no matter how badly he beats her. Is the man faultless? Absolutely NOT! But it isn't he who continues to go back for more abuse.

    Hey Devs, wake up! Stop putting up with the abuse! No need for a union, just stop taking it.

    Oh yeah, and if it's true that studios hire 20-somethings and expect them gone by 30, let me tell you something... your 20-something. You have you're whole life in front of you. Quit. Move. Stand up and say, "NO!" Whatever you want, you're 20-something. The night is still young!! Once you get to be 40-something, you'll understand what I'm saying here.

  6. Would you people make up your mind... on Reintroduce Megafauna to North America? · · Score: 1

    So we've got the global warming crowd shouting about how we're ruining the planet by warming it up... but there are peat bogs in Alaska and evidence that the planet was, at one time, much warmer in currently cold areas. Bringing back this 'warmness' is bad and evil -- regardless of the fact that it once was.

    Now we've got scientists (no doubt some of the very same that are on the global warming band wagon) wanting to repopulate North America with long departed species because... well... that's the way it used to be!!!!

    What a crock the whole way around.

  7. Re:You're getting ahead of yourself on E-Mail Clients That Support X.509 Digital IDs? · · Score: 1

    Tradeclient does this very well... I've been using it for quite some time with multiple accounts (recieve and send).

    What happens if we were to all join up ...

    Not much unless your willing to become a corporate member ($100 minium fee)

    Snipped from the ACT Membership agreement

    Voting rights and all other benefits priviliges of the Association are restricted to those members of the Association belonging to the "General Membership" (ie - corp. member) category.

    Individuals or businesses applying for membership in the "Supporting Member" category acknowledge that no special benefits or privileges are conveyed by such membership except as may be specifically accorded by the Board of Directors according to the Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Association.

    So much for that.

    I believe that Tandy (AKA Radio Shack) sold a unit (Tandy 2000 I think) for a VERY short period of time that used the x186... could be wrong though.
