These are construction workers we are talking about. They don't care about a 3 pound plastic camera. They will end up tossing in down on a desk, just the way they would thier disposables. They will end up putting them in their tool bag to move it to the next site with them. Construction hands aren't as nimble as a geeks. Dropping it from sholder height would be common. Not to mention, leaving it on the ground for some one to step on.
The original poster might need to think about the use of these things too. It's not like disposable cameras, where the forman tells one of the hands to take the whole unit into the local drug store for 1 hour development. What happens to the camera? where does it go from one use to another? are you going to install a new pouch on the toolbelts? Does the immediate access to photos affect anything? does the insurance company deal with digital?
It sounds liks a great Idea, and if you could have a thick rubber jacket made, then cannon's line of ~299 cameras are very rugged. I've dropped my cannon dozons of times, and the only thing that has happened is the CF card door is broken off... that could have been prevented with the use of some kind of rubber jacket.
You have to tie a CC or Bank Account to your accounts... how often do you change those? They would know it was you trying to come in again, unless you opened a new banking account. Same thing AOL's been doing for years...
Correct!!! Women, and men are designed differently. Every one knows this, and designes around it. Tests are run all the time to make equipment more gender nutral. There is not problem with ladies that keeps them out of CS, the problem is more along the lines of the design of the machine, and the logic that was designed for the machine.
If you want more women in the field, you much first slightly alter the way we interact with the machine. So far, Microsoft and Apple are light years ahead in research of this subject.
Now I am sitting here about two days away from serving her divorce papers
Is she hot? Hook a Bro'da up with some digits... Come on man... I realize you too are getting a divorce, but I'm not really looking for a relationship. So tell me... Is she hot?
That's a great Idea, my wife and I struggled for years to improve our credit, and buy a house, then once we got the house we broke the bank again. Now we are geting dinged with a couple of late pays, and one or two NSFs a month, because we didn't save enough. I say that, because we worked for five solid years to repay all of our debt, and get things in order... the last 16 months of our credit looked great, but then then wall hit. It has taken two months to distroy our credit file again. We will eventually work it out again, but we can't get credit now if we secured it. Kids just don't know how important credit is.
Spiked.. dude, really... Just give up... It's better for you to take the high road, and not follow this thread anymore. Let the/.'er(s) work over your comment, and just go about your business... Anything else risks you looking more and more like a karma whore, and that's bad. Karma isn't worth what it used to be.
Okay, it would seem to me, that 'j4ck50n' was trolling, and 'Spiked_nightmare' couldn't help but start the flame war. So both need to be spanked, but Spiked really shouldn't have tried to defend himself. Especially if he was going to leave huge holes in his reply. If I was Jackson, and I'm not, I would have responded like this...
Its a retorical question, im expressing that its an old piece of hardware and may not implement the whole of most recent opengl specifications or standards
yeah I caught that, but still, it supports enough for him to do his work... as per the screen shots
it was meant to be a joke/sarcastic comment
It was stupid, and uncalled for. I'm sure it made you happy to click on the submit button. Do please get over yourself.
but dont flame me because u got up out of the wrong side of your bed.
At best, my post was a troll, yours was the flame... check it out, and you'll see that I'm right.
BTW, it wasn't my bed I got out of this morning... it was your mom's, and I did get out of the wrong side, because she was so fat I couldn't reach the left side... so here we go
but by and large if parents know if they have a "good kid" or a "bad kid" and know how much to trust their kids
Fact, many parents think they have a "good kid", but reality says they do not.
I rarely use name calling as a form of debate, but you're an idiot. I never implied in my previous post, that you had to monitor your child like RIAA on a college campus. I merely suggested that parents are responsible for the action of their children, which you agreed with. So I guess your rant was about the fact that I put "there are no good kids". In retrospect maybe I should have put a smiley face after it to show that I was jok...Oh wait! I did put a smiley face after it. So I guess you just ignored the humor in that statement.
Fact is, if you don't occasionally help the kids 'clean' their room, you might just miss a dime bag of pot. And then one day when you get a phone call from the school, don't think their not going to ask you how you missed your child's use of illegal drugs.
Trust is implied with family. If you can't trust family, who can you trust. Just ask Gambino Family:) **NOTICE USE OF SMILEY FACE**
If you give your child "privacy", and then they do something stupid, because they've been doing something you didn't know about (because you didn't want to invade their "privacy"), you are still held responsable. You can't just hope that they are doing everything right. You can't control their every move, but it's my responsability to society to find my son's new handgun, before he takes it to school. even good kids miss up really big. ie: there are no good kids:) I should know... i was one once.
Each cpu dissipates just under 50W which is traditionally air cooled using a large heatsink and fan. This is fine for a stand alone computer but when multiple computers are used, eg a Beowulf cluster, the rise in room temperature and hotspots are an increasing problem. Normally air-conditioning is used but this is very inefficient. Cirocco directly cool the heatsink with water which can be cooled remotely and recirculated.
well said... but I also agree with the comment before you... we really can't let this become a place where people get information... Like those useless Usenet groups...:)
You haven't been marked at troll yet, so I'll tell you why this is a great ask slashdot post. It boils down to the fact that not everyone knows as much as you, or about what Linux can do for them. It would seem to me that if you could answer this poor guy's question, instead of trying to make yourself sound powerful and mighty, the world just might be a little better place to live. If you don't think what I'm saying is true, then check out the little culture of open Source Developers. And if you don't believe in the Open Source philosophy, then why are you wasting your time with Linux anyway? Why don't you just use some other UNIX? Please stop the high and mighty crap. No body cares that you have more geek'sperince, and the people who might care, can't because your to busy trying to tell them how stupid they are. There was a point in time that you didn't know about serial terminals. There was a point in time where you got introduced to the concept.
It would be interesting to see how RedHat is going to provide security to me. The original poster was talking about enterprise level Z/OS machines, not a farm of x86 boxen. The world doesn't revolve around the hordes of college geeks and the ubber fast 'leete machines they run. Your bank can't afford to be caught with their pants down, and that is why they go with the IBM flavor of Linux, which is bastardization of SUSE. But, for all who care, IBM offers the exact protection the original poster is requesting. I know, cause there is a Z/OS mainframe box on this floor that we run linux on it. While this one isn't in a development role, the shrink wrap wouldn't have made it into the building without our in-house legal department's approval first.
That's not really the point... Having cops doesn't stop crime from being commited, fire fighters don't prevent all fires, EMT dont... They know that can't stop file sharing, but stratigicly, isn't a P2P the first place to attack? I don't agree with what they are doing, and I don't really agree with why, but stratigicly, I think the front door is the one you want to close first.
Save on admin costs? You think they will be saving on admin costs?
I assume that you have never worked on a software product that was distributed world wide to a bunch to dolts who don't know anything about their computer, but can load a P2P client. Trust me, if the company wants this to work, they will offer a 24/7 support line, and it will be full. It will be full all the time... with idiots... just like the ones every software mfr has. It could be cheeper to have that PC inhouse on a 10Mb network.
The real question is, "How many people that frequent arcades have parents that have actual money?" BTW, Malls all over america host or are next to arcades. Again, this is not to attract people of incomes in excess of 100k. This is because teenagers hang out at the mall, and they bring their mommies credit card with them. Arcades today are a social club for the console owners.

Oh, well... no, but I did do a google search on "who is John Galt"... that was the response I got.
The question cannot be answered and is a symbol of objectivism.

It's that what companies like EDS are for? You just lease CPU Time, and they crunch the numbers for you?
