I've got this ancient Pink Floyd tshirt, actually I got it in '93. It was an Animals theme shirt. It had the cityscape background in black and grey with a pink embroidered pig in the middle. I've drawn and redrawn it several times in black and white. I thought it would make a good branding if done right. I want to put it on my inside left forearm. If things went well with the first, I would also like a coiled rattlesnake, ala the Gadsden flag, on the opposing arm. Maybe include the latin too.
You will not be able to stay home, brother. You will not be able to plug in, turn on and cop out. You will not be able to lose yourself on skag and skip, Skip out for beer during commercials, Because the revolution will not be televised.
The revolution will not be televised. The revolution will not be brought to you by Xerox In 4 parts without commercial interruptions. The revolution will not show you pictures of Nixon blowing a bugle and leading a charge by John Mitchell, General Abrams and Spiro Agnew to eat hog maws confiscated from a Harlem sanctuary. The revolution will not be televised.
The revolution will not be brought to you by the Schaefer Award Theatre and will not star Natalie Woods and Steve McQueen or Bullwinkle and Julia. The revolution will not give your mouth sex appeal. The revolution will not get rid of the nubs. The revolution will not make you look five pounds thinner, because the revolution will not be televised, Brother.
There will be no pictures of you and Willie May pushing that shopping cart down the block on the dead run, or trying to slide that color television into a stolen ambulance. NBC will not be able predict the winner at 8:32 or report from 29 districts. The revolution will not be televised.
There will be no pictures of pigs shooting down brothers in the instant replay. There will be no pictures of pigs shooting down brothers in the instant replay. There will be no pictures of Whitney Young being run out of Harlem on a rail with a brand new process. There will be no slow motion or still life of Roy Wilkens strolling through Watts in a Red, Black and Green liberation jumpsuit that he had been saving For just the proper occasion.
Green Acres, The Beverly Hillbillies, and Hooterville Junction will no longer be so damned relevant, and women will not care if Dick finally gets down with Jane on Search for Tomorrow because Black people will be in the street looking for a brighter day. The revolution will not be televised.
There will be no highlights on the eleven o'clock news and no pictures of hairy armed women liberationists and Jackie Onassis blowing her nose. The theme song will not be written by Jim Webb, Francis Scott Key, nor sung by Glen Campbell, Tom Jones, Johnny Cash, Englebert Humperdink, or the Rare Earth. The revolution will not be televised.
The revolution will not be right back after a message bbout a white tornado, white lightning, or white people. You will not have to worry about a dove in your bedroom, a tiger in your tank, or the giant in your toilet bowl. The revolution will not go better with Coke. The revolution will not fight the germs that may cause bad breath. The revolution will put you in the driver's seat.
The revolution will not be televised, will not be televised, will not be televised, will not be televised. The revolution will be no re-run brothers; The revolution will be live.
They don't block Monster. They've actually encouraged people to go out and find other jobs. It helps them in not having to report laying off so many people.
These are not the latte drinkers you are looking for. These are blue collar, contract, warehouse workers. Minimal education, even less motivation, but a whole lot to complain about.
A somewhat obvious option for when they block webmail like yahoo, hotmail, AOL (I'd block them just for spite.) and gmail. Some around here pitched a little bitch when they would no longer be able to check their email, work being their only access to the internet. I still have to SSL into my webmail client as they seem to have blocked the port it uses. Regardless, I can still check my mail.
I think the bigger question is how the hell this article made it to Slashdot to begin with. If Time wants to get exposure to the geek community, let 'em buy an ad. I'd hardly think of them as an authority on anything except selling hardbound books on crappy subjects. Remodel your entire home with alien technology using Time-Life's Unexplained Home Repair. Available in 52 easy payments of $9.95. And if you act now, they'll personally send Elvis down from the mother ship to shove an electric screw driver up your ass.
I don't know. I'm quite good at the very little I do. As a matter of fact, I'm one of the few who have gotten a raise every year for the past three. Must being doing something right.
They still have servers. And Lucifer Gerstner is still rich as hell. Satan Palmisano is on his way. Not to mention, they are about to settle with the pensioners they screwed six years ago. Hell, I got a $63 settlement from it. But I'm not bitter. Pffft!
1. I have a motherboard with a bad keyboard connector. I want to swap on off another bad board and figure I can use it to practice. 2. I search for hardware and tutorials on the internet, finding similar links provided in these responses. 3. You Ask Slashdot about soldering. 4. I find where my company is gearing up to do chip level testing on failed ICB's.
We could also add team member selections like in fighting games where you select the strike team. A resume and general description could be used as specs. You possibly could use more, but that would violate some EEOC rules. Plus, it adds a bit of chaos to a otherwise predictable system. Bob has 5 years experience in Win2k3 Server and a meth habit. Jenny knows all the latest languages and must pick up her kids from day care by 4PM every afternoon. She also cannot work weekends. Eugene will work for $5k less than everyone else and 55+ hours a week, but he smells bad.
Why don't you write a development simulation to do this. Call it SimiDevelopment. They can manage the various aspects of the project, hiring more coders and consultants, having the network turned into a botnet ala Godzilla in SimCity... How meta would that be? Have them play this game that incorporates the real world issues between developers, managers, customers and stock holders. It would undoubtedly have an anti-management slant, but I think that a good thing.

Remember when IBM Clone or Compatable meant something running DOS or Windows on and Intel chip? What irony.

Sometimes you need the pain.

But where the hell do you go to get branded?
I don't want a piercing nor a tattoo.

This would appear to be the case as I can't get to the mailserver otherwise.
Tell me about it. My friends all say I'm a nice guy despite the fact I've offered to eliminate a few individuals for them.
Don't you mean he should cut off Balmer's head with his lighsaber?

FuckifIknow. I just couldn't get the damned thing to work right. And nobody here verifies anything anyone else posts.
I tried it in FF and IE.
I didn't like it that much anyway.

I think I may pursue this further.
Perhaps Windows is giving you a false Outlook on life.
They want their business model back.
They were probably working on it before 1997, but that sounds like a good year.

Can you run Darwin on something other than a 440BX yet? I couldn't find any documentation.
Why don't they just knock Boston down and then build the highway?
Buyer beware.
I can't sue IBM because they soldered the procs into their early mother boards.
Most users want to play cards or surf the web. If that means they have to do some work, they'll consider it.
