If you hear "Build a user mod of a game" and your response is "I can fix all the spelling mistakes" then you, my friend, may be the most boring person in the entire universe.
"Of course they did." My ass. It existed in RC1 that I recall and it was still there in RC2. What's wrong with asking if they fixed something that bit you in the ass the first time? Do you look smarter when you just assume they fixed it and have the exact same thing happen to you all over again?
That's why I suggested using PDFLib or something free if you can get your hands on it. Anything you want printed you make a PDF of on the fly. This is functionally identical to FileMaker or Access having GUI screens separated from 'reports' which are formatted nicely for printing.
Web based really is the way to go. The tools are there for it (PHP for interface, MySQL or PostGres for the database, PDFLib or something free for reports). I don't know of any packages that already do that though. At work we are replacing our contact management system (in Filemaker presently) with one built in JSP with an Oracle backend. That same app is being sold to clients as well.
Exactly. Since getting DirectTV in January, the amount of TV I watch has plummetted to virtually nothing. You can't channel flip when it takes fifteen seconds for the channel to change. The DirectTV Tivo doesn't even work right. The only thing it has ever recorded for me randomly are Spanish language movies, no matter how many thumbs down I give it. Several times, it has flat out not recorded items I told it to. Frequently, it records from channels I don't even get and then auto-deletes the recording as soon as it finished. I had a normal Tivo before this and swore by it. I'll be hooking it up again when my DirectTV subscription runs out in January and I can go back to cable.
1. Register a domain for $50 for a couple years. 2. Host it on Pair for $8/month including ssh access. 3. You now can securely check your email via SSH anywhere that you have a network connection. Since you own the domain, you don't have to worry about your email address changing two years down the road.
I haven't read the license itself, but my company just purchased 4 licenses for Advanced Server from RedHat. We paid RedHat to build us a cluster of 7 AS boxes. They put AS on all the boxes and we just had to specify which ones the support licenses would apply to.
Only if you define a 'real writer' as one who gives a shit about grammatical rules. If breaking a grammatical rule does not impact the ideas being communicated, it was not a rule worth following. stipe42

Use the 'preview/play' option to watch what you've downloaded so far. You can't fast forward or anything, but you should be able to watch enough to tell if it's the right thing. stipe42
There are physical standards that must be met because of regulations and rules. The Russians would probably be willing to waive such rules for the few million bucks they'd get in return. After all, it's not their fat asses that won't survive and it's not like the Russian space agency will have to worry about law suits the way NASA would.
BART doesn't go to San Jose because Santa Clara County rejected the measure to allow BART permission to do it when the system was being built originally. The original specs for BART were to circle the bay. Santa Clara County wanted to build its own government owned system instead . . . which never happened. stipe42
shrug. I was just working from memory. A google search shows that the twin showed up in ep30 of Voyager also. I was just making the point that the twin wasn't discovered and subsequently killed off in a single episode as the parent was complaining about.
The algorithm was too dumb to realize it's design won't be portable past the lab table.
By your logic, the first cell to evolve on ancient earth was not anything important, just a meaningless accident. That first cell was too dumb to realize that its design wouldn't be portable past the ocean slime. Oh wait, that's because evolution doesn't occur with a masterplan, when life happens it evolves to meet the present environment.
I get 75 channels, of which I pay a monthly fee to get about 60 of them. Gee let me think, what business model would those other fifteen channels have to adopt if commercial revenue disappeared? Could it possibly be that I would have to pay a monthly fee to get them? Am I the only one who thinks that the question in this post was answered oh about twenty years ago? stipe42
Olin College was set up by the same people who originally set up HMC. I remember hearing about it when I was still there for undergrad. In fact, one of the buildings at Mudd is named Olin. stipe42

Great analogy. Music==cocaine. Well yeah, I hardly see the legal difference between the two.
Bought it at Target, you know, ground zero of everything geek-chic.

I just read this exact quote in a post on plastic . . . similar net browsing habits or just plain coincidence?

The average house where I'm at costs around $300,000. Somehow that $3000 to $5000 you quote isn't quaking my financial sensibilities.

That sounds way too much like fixing problems in the bureaucracy by adding another layer of bureaucracy.

The twin did not appear and then die in the same episode. As I recall, the twin appeared in several different episodes, and even a couple for DS9.

They'll probably just do what Harvey Mudd does: require you to take twice as many classes.
