'make clean' better trash the configure cache files, or someone didn't write their make files correctly. I've been using the same source trees for apache, postfix, ssh.com's ssh2, and bind for years, along with FreeBSD stable sources. Never once have I had a configure problem that 'make clean' didn't resolve.
This is great. The last class I took for my bachelors was a COBOL class, and I know VB like the back of my hand. I could get paid to do this. Maybe that class wasn't a complete waste of time afterall. Who knew?
Actually, since most COBOL is data processing crap, PERL is a better candidate. And it takes a ton less code in PERL. I wonder how many COBOL jobs are open. PERL on FreeBSD/Alpha would be a decent replacement, much more reliable than MS junk.
This would be great. As a paintball junkie (hah!), and an ex-firefighter (working nights doesn't afford any training time, that will be fixed soon so I can get back in the action), I'd love to do this. I'd even pay for the paint. I'd have to convert to compressed air (no money, I'm still using CO2 on a Spyder Shutter), but the air would be free. If only I had a spare Scott 4.5 and some fittings...
The general consensus of most conservatives is that government should be as small as possible (same with libertarians. Conservatives (capital C, big difference: I'm a conservative, but not a Conservative) tend to think slightly differently on the whole big government philosophy.
I use RR business class for my home connection. $109.95/month for 2 statics in a dmz, 1 meg down, 128k up. It's the cheapest service they have, more bandwidth costs more money, but it is available. I run mail and host for a couple domains (one being the URL above.)
Other than some problems with shit Cisco routers, which they fixed this past Saturday (weekend tech trip to my apartment, for free, can't beat that for service,) I haven't had less than 3 9's downtime in more than a year.
I'm using a model M with a ps2-USB adapter right now. I bet pckeyboards.com would make a USB native version of the model M with enough pressure, considering they make both AT and ps2 versions.
I'd even give up the rj-45 ports, thats what the PCI Express bus would be for.
And I haven't had a floppy drive in a machine in 5 years (no, I don't have a Mac, yet.) Boot with a CD, man.
Seriously, if a company would dump all the legacy ports from a board for an "extreme-geek" line, I'd buy 10, maybe more. I imagine there's a market for it.
Let me guess, you want ISA slots on an A64 board too? I can send you a buttload of usb->ps2 adapters, all you pay is shipping. Hell, you could probably rig a USB keyboard to work with an AT mobo. I should try that with parts laying around here.
On a single proc board, using a couple 4 GB sticks would be ok (I want one for $100, please.), but on a 2+ proc board, you'd want the extra slots to take advantage of the multiple memory controllers.
Can't they leave off the serial/parallel and ps2 ports? Removing the floppy connector, ata-133 and on-board audio would be great. They're totally unneccessary in this day and age for me, probably many others too. For those who need them, they should be an option. Even Abit's KV8-MAX3 has ps2 ports, which is a shame.
I'd probably drool and swipe the credit card if I could get an A64 board with 8 DDR slots, PCI Express, dual Gb LAN, 8 usb2 ports and 4 FW800 ports on the backpanel. 8 SATA connectors would sweeten the deal.
Sorry about the really late reply. The alarm system is used to preplan unit assignments for response. A quick google search for "box alarm" will get you some relevant links. The system is in place to make the best use of limited resources, as you wouldn't want the entire borough of Manhattan to respond to a car fire in front of city hall. It's used more for individual units than entire stations, as that would not be very resourceful.
Am I the only one in the world who hasn't had to go through a clean install of Windows while going from 95A, through every upgrade including betas of 98, to 98SE - current patch set? This hard disk has been in 3 different machines during that time also. WTF is up with people that call themselves nerds and can't keep Windows working?
Most of the ROC is dead. All of my machines are down, I checked in at home on my lunch break. Luckily, I'm at work at EK, and we have our own power plant. Too bad my servers aren't here...

why, oh why they don't they remove the most fucking stable thing in my fucking PC...

If the PS/2 port on your board is the most stable part of your machine, you have serious issues. Send that machine to me, I'll fix it for you.
I bet the PS2 keyboard I'm using is older than you bitch.
IBM released the PS/2 connector in 1987; that keyboard is definitely not older than I am.
A little history lesson
Who's the bitch? Anonycow

I don't want shit on-board sound when doing real sound work. Why waste the board space when a firewire link to a MOTU unit is so much better?
Where do they sell SATA CD burners? (I'm serious)
Good question. For now, I'd either use a PATA-SATA converter or go with fw800 for optical drives.
I'd even give up the rj-45 ports, thats what the PCI Express bus would be for.

Go search your favorite law database for "freedom from religion," SCOTUS has ruled contrary to your assertion in the past.
Why use TweakUI or regedit at all? Turn auto insert notification off in the system properties. I bet it requires a reboot though.

Sorry, couldn't resist. That's one of my favorite scenes in The Rock.
Your kernel is probably tagged as 4.9-PRERELEASE, as all of mine are.
Real Networks makes the world's worst software. It is not allowed on my network. Ever.
And of course, those are worthless without number 2, but You may have implied that. :)

uncomment the
/etc/make.conf
NO_MODULES= true # do not build modules with the kernel
line in
I don't build modules on my production machines, there is no need. This prevents that.
