    OKie doke. Thanks a bunch for all the typo catches. I fixed all of em, even the Scuzzy, movie, and wishlist page.

    OK, thanks for the heads up. Fixed all those dead links.

    OK, first of all just because we don't use M$ doesn't mean your browsers aren't made by M$.

    Secondly, what are these dead links you people keep refering to? I think our server's just being crushed under the weight of all you slashdoters.

  4. This place is just as cool as it sounds. on Reduce, Reuse, Recycle · · Score: 1

    Well, i've been working at the ACCRC For over a year and a half now. It's a terrific place. Most of our volunteers come from the homeless shelter next to our building. It's amazing how much people can leanr when they're immersed in technology so completely.

    A couple of answers to previously proposed questions. The Athlon 850's and motherboards for them were graciously donated by AMD for use in our cluster. They also gave us a good deal of PC100 dimms to help us expand the cluster. 3Com donated all of our switches and ethernet cards.

    Microsoft has never contacted us, nor are they likely to. I find it highly unlikely that they would attempt to shut us down because we distribute Linux. SuSe Gave us 30,000 boxed copies of 7.0 in its various incarnations, and this is the OS we distribute. We'd love to get any other distributions we could, but for now, we will use SuSe because we have a buttload of it.

    Now, some related links! Webcams In the Ministry of Truth, AKA the media lab at the ACCRC.

    Buy Shit from the ACCRC here. Extremely disorganized, just like the warehouse is.

    Anyone in the bay area is invited to come by and check us out. We are open from 10-5 weekdays and 12-5 saturdays. We invite anyone to volunteer, no matter what your skill level is. Also, if you would like to send us your equipment for a donation and a tax write-off, send it to our street address, not our post office box.

    Thank you ve5ry much for all your enthusiasm. We need volunteers badly! Volunteers get digging rights!!!!

  5. High School is Horrible on Voices From The Hellmouth · · Score: 1

    The way I see it, if you enjoyed high school, you probably have a job pumping gas or doing data entry right now. The only people I can imagine enjoying high school are the creatines who used to beat us up and forcably exclude us from EVRYTHING. Adolecence is a time in our lives where we're so unsure of ourselves we need constant approval and attention to show that we are OK, that we're normal. I see absolutely no question as to why those kids went and killed their classmates. If people tell you you're worthless for 4 years, you start to believe it. Hang in there kids, trust me, it may sound bad, but the less popular you are at the bigining of life, the more successful you are at the end, and you can bet on those odds.
