Wouldn't you have to bribe the demon for BSD, and the penguin for Linux? Not sure where virgin sacrifices comes into it, but I'd watch out for that hand of God... I read The Stand.
Hey - I ran CP/M on my C=64... didn't have the cool speech synth, but I did have an acoustic modem (till I moved up to the 1200 baud model - yowsa!). Even now, most screens are still made of glass... 6510, Z-80 - bah! --
I signed up for the Discover card on campus a few times (even though I already had one). Free t-shirts, candy, they already had my info, and a month later I'd get a "sorry, but you already have a Discover card, you don't get a second one" letter. The best of both worlds.
At my former school, they firewalled the campus network (no incoming anything...), then relaxed it slightly (ok, incoming HTTP on 80, but no ftp, especially on 80, and alright, ident) and fairly actively scanned any webservers up for material. They did state that they would NOT scan net 'hood (SMB) shares - no that the firewall blocked direct connect and scour from them, they didn't care (scour is, of course different now, but hey).
People will always have local lan content search engines, too - pretty nifty. I can still find everything that is shared on the campus net at my alma mater, I just can't get to it (directly from my cable modem... still have that cs account, though;-D )
of course, each card has to be individually activated at the register (like the gift cert cards at many places, prepaid phone cards at checkout line impulse areas, etc...)... that would take a long time...
Thanks for being more understanding than the moderator... I thought it was a decent point, after all - Rochester, MN is a fairly techie town (big ol' IBM site with a several thousand people, bunch of doctors at some Mayo Clinic thing...)
Sure, and since everything eventually reduces down to assembly (for the purposes of this discussion), everything is buggy. That explains Windows.
So - all microcode (instruction decoding kind) must also be buggy, so there has never been a good chip (I suppose that a 74LS000 might be ok, or even a bitslice ALU)...
Well, they don't have the time/resources to track everything in the Visa/MC/Amex/Discover/Diners/etc realm... they are pretty understaffed as it is (the percentage of audits has dropped each of the last few years). Even if they have them, they don't know they have them, or can't get to them as easily as they'd like... upon request (for audits), I'm sure they could get them (not sure if that is legal or not)... now some other Agency... --
That's why the different plastics (on containers, etc) have the type listed (by number and short description: PETE HDPE, etc). They get sorted, and all is well again.

GPG vs. PGP?

And, of course, Eudora/PGP works fine on Windows, too (my solution of choice - still the best mail client out there).
Ugh... 60Hz... for any real work, I can see flicker under 72Hz (with incandescent light) - up to 75Hz with fluorescent... 60Hz drives me insane... even if it is the only light source in the room I get a headache...
Try telling them they are imagining it??? Only if these people have never heard of refresh rate and are easily swayed...
The Dixon Ticonderogas alway won these for us... of course, you had to hit and defend with the wood grain oriented properly - you could almost never lose that way. Same as a baseball bat... one way will hit the ball 400 feet, the other... 40 feet, and the rest of the bat will fly further than the ball. I had one pencil (Dixon Tico #4) that won something like 30 straight games... of course, you never recover from that first loss..... --
Yeah, there were the particle-board pencils (that's what we called 'em - very solid, but didn't sharpen as well as 'real' ones), funky rubberish pencils (no good for anything... pencilwars, writing, sharpening... they just sucked). There was a superior pencil, of course... the Dixon Ticonderoga - real wood, a good thwacka sound, good leads, erasers that didn't just smear the lead and leave an orange/red mark on the paper... those were pencils.
Funny, I don't remember seeing that the first time I looked... I went to that page specifically to find that - funny. Maybe I just missed it. It would be nice to see something on the front page, too... --
He's not competing, there is no product, and it isn't that similar or confusing. It isn't commercial. The services he provides to his resnet are NOT AVAILABLE on linux.com, nor will they be. I don't think anybody that is smart enough to get into a college (omit glib remark about texas) would really think they were on linux.com or even go there for any of the same reasons.

Yeah - I wrote a symbolic algebra program on my C-64... that ran out of memory, so I took it over to the C-128... ah, sweet fast power.

You can do more with logo than draw little spirals on an Apple ][ ?! I thought it was invented for 5 yr. olds!

Southeast MN - One bigish almost city - Rochester. Big IBM site, Mayo clinic... that alone helps skew the results 8^)

I see 8 of them wrong with 4.72 on AIX 8-bit (the 66FF00 is really close, you can barely tell)...
No, the scraper doesn't properly do CSS (not a big loss, really - this is the web we are talking about)
