NO NO NO! Billy Boyd! Apple has to redeam the Pippin name in it's lineage. "The new iPod, hobbit sized.":: Cut to scene with Pip and Merry::
Pip> Whatcha got there Merry? Merry> The new MiniPod, 800 songs and it's mine, my prescious. Pip>:: Sees a human pass with a regular iPod:: Wait. It comes in Pints? I'm getting one.
I have no sympathy for the kid at all. As someone who started opening his iPod at around 90 days (Hey it was out of warrenty I'm 'fixing' it) I've got to say if you can't handle replacing an iPod battery you probably couldn't handle replacing the battery in a SonyEriccson phone.
I'm sorry but the battery connector here is just slightly bigger than an IDE drive jumper, and about as obvious as a fart in Church. If someone can't figure out how to replace this on their own they need to have their geek card pulled. This isn't drilling out pins on your Celeron to get SMP, it's replacing something that's about as difficult as a newer Cell Phone battery.
You ask me these kids are about as bright as a sack full of hammers.
It's quite easy to see that this is not a rip off of an Apple ad. The anouncer most obviously isn't Jeff Goldblum. Feh. You Apple obsessed people will see Apple in Apple everything (oh yeah... Apple)
That's what I usually tell developers that want some crazy stuff, like applications running as root or some other assanine thing. Go over my head. If you can convince the CIO that our customers absolutely need the functionality that your hackneyed application provides, along with all of the problems to the system that it creates, I'd be happy to put it in for you.
That's what it's all about, providing functionality to the user. If there's a business case to do something wrong, then of course we'll do it. No question. If you can't make a case to the CIO that they're comfortable with then you'd better be thinking of a different way to do things.
I've been watching this as a SysAdmin that is looking to move from Solaris for an Oracle installation. With RedHat's decision yesterday to drop the free portion of it's operation on Fedora, and today Novell snapping up SuSE I've got to say that Linux has come of age. It's now no better really than any of the other 'open systems' constellation of UNIX-a-likes. Sure there are more developers for Linux, sure kernel patches happen faster, which probably makes Linux the most desirable of the 'Open Systems' crowd, but for me in my application it's really just become another *nix.
I now have to pay for licenses for my test and development servers (where before I could get away with RedHat 9) and I have to stick close to something that will certify with Oracle. It's not a terrible thing by any means, but I think that the golden age of Linux is over.
How about a much easier solution. PRINT A MARKED BALLOT! (With a barcode) Then if there are discrepencies you can re-count by hand if you REALLY have to, or can just load the ballots up in a counting machine and scan all the barcodes.
Started playing with iTunes, hit the volume keys on my Microsoft key board and iTunes intercepted the call and changed it's volume. I didn't even install the drivers for the keyboard (it's plugged into the PS2 port at the moment) tres cool.
Ladies and Gentlemen I give you Copeland, Microsoft's newest Operating System that will make our previous outtings appear uncouth. It's Insanely Great! What? Longhorn? You're kidding right? Listen the script doesn't say that. You didn't have time to update the script? How could you not have time to update the script, this OS has been in development forever! What? Cut My Mic!
No, they're saying this cluster is twice as fast as the other one. You can't boil these numbers down to the processor level. Doing so is overly simplistic.
It doesn't sound like a Southwest 737 getting ready for take off, is that a good thing?

Actually.... with the revelation that Berners-Lee uses Safari to brows the web you probably aren't far off the mark. (Oh and the fact that he developed the Web on a NeXT machine probably doesn't have anything to do with it either....)
Whatever your opinion on Ascroft and Rumsfeld is; the fact is that they are person's you can trust simply because they are consistent in their policy over time, not jsut in a short glimpse of second.
What you mean like "We're going to rid Iraq of Weapons of Mass Destruction" to "We're liberating the Iraqi people" to "We're taking the war to the terrorists on their turf" to "Iraq is the primary front in the War on Terror"? Please. These people change their policy more often than most Slashdotters change their underwear. And not to single old Rummy out Ashcroft goes from protecting us from the terrorists to protecting us from internet porn, to protecting us from Tommy Chong's Bongsite.
The qualities we need for homeland security are the same that they can deploy in our research and development sector.
You mean like pandering to corporate interests and doing research that increases the profit margins of large corporations that fund the research?
It's a free world and we still can't controll their behavior as much as we would like, but blaiming DHS becasue of others people misery is a bit naive and "conspiracyish".
If you'd get your head out of the sand long enough to look around you'd realize that the DHS and Justice department are fighting Congress for control of our behavior.
The founding fathers newer intended that our intel should be perfect or our state leaders shoul be a genious, all they wanted was someone that tried to protect the constitution.
Bravo! I agree, which is why we need John Ashcroft, attacker of the constitution, out of the DOJ as soon as possible.
Imagine, that an ISP DOES start filtering as part of it's normal service. Then suppose that an additional attack vector is found that circumvents the ISP's 'firewall' who's at fault? It's like ISPs that try to filter usenet, are they then responsible when porn gets through? It's a slippery slope that would probably be better not to get into.
And if they start what's to stop them from taking a payment from Microsoft to block Yahoo Messenger, AIM, but not MSN?
While I haven't looked at current proposals I do seem to remember that the USAF back in the '60's was actually rather close to developing an Aerospace plane, in fact you COULD call the X-15 perhaps the first of these. There is no need to make an Aerospace plane that rides into space atop some huge rocket. There's no reason you couldn't design some sort of hybrid air-breather/rocket that could get to altitude via an air-breathing system and then achieve orbit via a rocket system.
Okay, if we do decide to go with an orbital space plane what is going to ferry the huge Hubble sized spy sattelites into orbit? I've got to thing that the KH series of sattelites is at least in part the reason we still have a shuttle.
In other news Theo De Radt (the shill of OpenBSD) today announced that he was moving to Japan to adivse the tri-country coolition on security matters. The West sighed in relief.
Ummmmm.... PowerPC 970 is a decendant of IBM's POWER4, which is WHIPPING SUN'S ASS! Suns have been loosing the speed race to IBM and HP for a while now. I wouldn't be surprised if the G5 system spanked any 'Solar' system.
God no! Why wait, it's already started and I see IPTABLES entries in my syslog constantly (logcheck runs once/hour) with this crap from Dorm Machines. Good thing they're all in one IP range... which I have blocked.

Damn, now I need to go look at the text in question. Maybe I can use it for comps rather than Lorum Ipsum.

Ummm, we've got that here in Iowa too. Why take a different countries example to use when you've got one in our own United States that works?
/.ers that we use GIS systems to re-draw the districts when it's time to.

Oh, well. No one ever accused the Bush administration of having a collective brain cell.
But they do. His name is Karl Rove, unfortunately this intellect is currently directed at keeping Dubbya in the White House.
