    That's why you should use ctrl-z or the backspace key. They always works.

  11. Re:Poundfoolish on United Makes Plans to Drop 'Baggage Neutrality' · · Score: 1

    You've never flown swiss air, I take it. Swiss is only a little better service, but better nonetheless. On british, we flew into heathrow from Charles-de-gaulle, and they had moved our terminal across the airport. I literally had to run a whole mile from where our scheduled terminal was to the new one, and they had the nerve to slap a surcharge on me for holding up the flight. On top of that, mine and several other passengers' bags didn't make in on the plane and I arrived in JFK with just my carry on. Good thing i was coming home. I would have been quite annoyed starting my vacation with no clothes.

  16. Re:so do you really get 1.5 or 7MBPS? on ISP Guarantees Net Neutrality, For a Fee · · Score: 1

    All of these people complaining that they aren't getting the full advertised speed of their residential lines. Why is this so shocking? These lines do not guarantee any amount of bandwidth or even uptime. Am I the only one around here that knows that the only way to guarantee bandwidth availability is with an SLA of some sort?

    And I don't wanna hear a word about the price of a t line with an SLA being too expensive. This is the US, and our broadband sucks. If you don't like it, STFU and GTFO.

  18. Re:does i run windows? on In Search of the Cheap Linux Laptop · · Score: 1

    Yes i have tried it, but clearly i haven't tried every device in existance. There may be exceptions, but I'd put a large sum of money that any device with a shred of complexity to it would not work. Can you imagine installing windows 98 catalyst drivers onto xp?

  19. Re:does i run windows? on In Search of the Cheap Linux Laptop · · Score: 2, Informative

    It's tough to tell if you post is just profane ignorance or flamebait, but are you fucking stupid? NT based operating systems have this little thing goin on called Microkernel Architecture. No way a win98 or older driver will work as well, if at all on one of these newer OSes.

    to recap:
    NT 4.0 driver on 2k or xp - maybe
    98se driver on NT 4 2k, or xp - NO FUCKING WAY

    I remember seeing a while ago a device that you can program with a passcode. If you know the passcode, it lets the call through, if not, it emits a fast-busy signal. Damned if i can find a link to it, though.

    Though I seem to remember reading that it was an OEM Sample from dell using 200 GB platters, and that by the retail launch they would be using larger(320 GB?) platters. That is why they posted it, right? Retail launch? It better be, otherwise, they're in for (more of) a flaming.

    exactly. Transporting it there is one thing. Reading it back is an entirely different animal. The beauty of networks is that theyre so goddamned direct. it's just disk>network>disk instead of disk>disc>car>disk. And what if you've got wikipedia in the trunk? What do you do when someone edits a page?
