Republicans are bad. When will people learn that supporting the people instead of the businesses is good for everyone.
I can forgive the stupid people for voting for Bush in 2000 because they didn't know better. However, if anyone votes for Bush in 2004, they need to pull their head out of their ass.
War, recession, tax-cuts for millionaires, cut benefits for military & federal employees,...
Sad really. The only justice is every military dipshit who bitched about Clinton can now reap the rewards from their ignorance.
Most CS people have a very difficult time working in most businesses because their limited busines fundamentals. With an MBA (it was designed for engineers originally, which you technically are) you will have the best of both worlds, and with the finance classes you may actually know what to do with the millions you make.
Or you could just hit on the new freshman and drink beers. Either way you win!
For example, I'm the SysAdmin, DBA, Resource Planner, Disaster Recovery Manager, in addition to my actual title of Software Developer. I also am the liason for all communications with our parent company's (billion dollar company) CIO.
We have 1 manager (VP), 3 developers, 3 support/admin assistant positions. Our company has around 1 million a year income for our office but our clients (which we help our parent company land) bring in over 250 million to our parent company. We are a very small niche, but successful none the less.
I have my own company as well with 2 other individuals and we all work in all areas of the company (except financing which is my bag). Not all businesses are straight "This is your role, do nothing more."
Unfortunately the genius refuses to run antivirus software and has trashed our internal servers 3 times and his own computers several times more than that.
Lol, he still cannot figure out why he is no longer the lead developer. Dumbass.
Boomer sooner, boomer sooner,.... (this continues for a while).... oku

Is in the first Thief game on the first level. If you knock out the first citizen you encounter with the blackjack. He makes this effeminate groan "Ooooooooooo". I play that level for a laugh now and then.
I never had allergies until I was an adult (Oklahoma is a bad place to live if you have allergies), it took me a while to figure out what they were. The worst onset caused migraine headaches twice for me. Both times were worse than any other pain I've experienced (except that one time Keri dumped me:(
I found that taking contac works as well as claritin and it's a hell of a lot cheaper. Just be careful because if you take it too many days in a row it can be addictive (from what I hear).
" Those concerned that it's not a good idea for computers to track their belongings and whereabouts are advised that they may ultimately have to fragment their identities, keeping multiple IDs and e-mail addresses."
Who isn't already doing this?
With the advent of spam most people I know abandonned their first email address years ago. I have one for each service I use (including slashdot).
If you skip setting up standard users (which most grandmas would do) you can ONLY log in as root. Same goes for every distro I've used (Slackware, Debian, Redhat, Suse, etc...)
It's not an attack on linux it's a fact of who is using the system and who is setting it up? IF it's the same person they are significantly more likely to use ROOT. This is the reason Linux has almost zero likelihood of being successful on the Desktop, it requires conceptual understanding of security and the how and why you should(n't) run as root. Grandma doesn't care.
Plus, most users of computers learnt the Windows-Way. All Admin, All the time.
If we could just get rid of the hackers there would be no security issues. BURN THEM AT THE STAKE!!! lol, j/k;)
I have several people who use a web based service from my company that runs on Windows 2000 Server. I check for patches daily and install them as soon as I do a full backup (in case it shits out the whole system).
My users kept calling saying "You have that Blaster Worm on your system because every time I try to connect my computer dies!". So I explain to them my systems have been patched for that exploit for over a month and I have run all the proper testing software to verify. I then ask if they have AntiVirus software installed and their reply is "I don't know.". Lol, I don't know, so it must me my server! I immediately tell them to invest in a copy of Norton Antivirus and Norton Firewall.
Ah, the world of windows.
The funny thing is if these same people were running linux they would be logged in as root and still execute whatever script someone sent them. I'm not too sure Linux would be any more secure than Windows because in windows you can also run as just a User. However, when doing that a significant number of poorly designed programs will not work.
If you go to downtown and avoid the "glitz" casinos you have a much better shot of winning. They have single deck blackjack, craps where 2, 3 & 12 are point bets (only crap out on a 7), and the Stratosphere has single 0 roulette.
They should add a regulation that if a casino is going to offer a game, they cannot add any "rules" or ban players that are successful. If they do so then they can no longer offer the game for 5 years.
Yet another example of Businesses (casinos in this case) having more say than the people. This is one of the many reasons I just avoid Vegas and Atlantic City altogether.
I'd sure hate to be paid millions of dollars for playing a game. Damn the luck. Oh well, put me on the front of Madden 2005 and SI. I'll take my chances.
You just like paying 5x as much for a 650MHz UltraSPARC.
Ever wonder why you have to email them for a quote? Because they are extremely over priced.
PowerPC 970 Apple Powerbook. That's what I'm waiting for. Until then I'll stick with what I've got (12" 900MHz iBook, 1.13GHz PIII Inspiron) and be happy.
#2 The amount of work performed supporting dual networks is usually less because when worms like slammer, etc hit you only have to patch 1/2 the computers instead of all. Checking for the minute by minute patches comming out of MS makes administrating a Windows network exponentially more difficult than a Mac network or a partial Mac/Windows network.
I am the sysadmin for my small company (in addition to being a software engineer and dba) and we run Windows, Mac, Linux and Solaris boxes. Guess which ones I have to check daily? Guess which ones have 180+ days of up time? Guess which ones have a better TCO.
Maybe next time you should do your research. Or learn to be a better admin.
Apparently he makes $10 million in licensing for his name and a set amount per copy sold.
I remember reading all the EA people hate him because he won't even go there once a year for a release (all the voice over work is done at a place of his chosing).
EA should consider moving away from Madden for two reasons. One the guy is like 300 lbs and is likely to die at any moment from any number of weight related issues. The second is the game is excellent independent of this jerk off shouting "Boom, that had to hurt". Most people I know who play these games turn commentary off (as I do).
Who cares about simply shooting monsters anymore? Doom, Doom II, Doom III, Quake, Quake II, Quake III Same old shit different graphics.
Thief series and Half Life are better because of the story. How many times can you kill the same bot with a Railgun without getting bored? For me it's around 100.
Soundblaster has garbage drivers for windows and every other platform as well. I used to work with a couple of guys who did device driver programming for them in creative's Stillwater offices (BFE Oklahoma) and they said the drivers were almost exclusively written by someone without proper experience (ie, new CS grad).
Funny really, best cards available with worst drivers available.
The only tangible difference I've seen is the ability to run self hosted IIS for local web development (which I don't use).
I have several Mac's and there is nothing I can do on the Mac I cannot do on the PC. However the opposite is not true. I prefer Macs to PCs in general because I like the stability and interface better. But typing in a window is typing in a window, clicking on an icon is clicking on an icon. They are so similar that it's almost pointless in arguing which is better.
XP Home is more than enough for me to do software development on my laptop (I have an MSDN subscription and have 10 licenses to XP Pro). In fact I have not even bothered to reinstall the XP Home that came on my laptop with XP Pro.
Show me the differences. Oh and by the way I said XP Pro was $14 dollars more, so that was the one I was comparing.

This book is excellent. It's the best I've read on the subject and it has surprisingly good content where you're not bored out of your mind.

In a small business you do more than 1 job.
For example, I'm the SysAdmin, DBA, Resource Planner, Disaster Recovery Manager, in addition to my actual title of Software Developer. I also am the liason for all communications with our parent company's (billion dollar company) CIO.
We have 1 manager (VP), 3 developers, 3 support/admin assistant positions. Our company has around 1 million a year income for our office but our clients (which we help our parent company land) bring in over 250 million to our parent company. We are a very small niche, but successful none the less.

My hard drive must be dead.

Just like the last 4 years.
Come talk when Texas actually wins the Big XII championship. I'm more scared of OSU.

2) I don't want the people at the local Chinese restaurant spitting in my food (yes they are from vietnam).

Seriously though I agree completely with your statement. However, common sense has long since left our government.

Have you used XP Pro or Home?

Did you read the parent post dumb fuck?
129 for OS X
143 for Windows XP Pro
The difference is $14 or are you a complete moron?
Next time read the posts before making yourself look like a dumb fuck (or confirming the truth that you are a dumb fuck).
