The parent poster is Canadian, not European. Let me spell this out for you -- Canada is the large country to the north of you where people are generally well-educated, well-informed, friendly and not prone to swallowing propaganda.
BTW, Eurotrash is generally used to refer to trust-fund kiddies in NYC who spend their days partying, not all Europeans. If you must denigrate us, at least choose an insult that isn't already taken.
Christ, you're full of it. Americans have spent the last decade lecturing the rest of us on how to run our economies, social lives, defense, etc. If you dish it out, be prepared to take it.
Oh, by the way -- your website is crap. Pretentious little twit.
As a citizen of a former British colony (Ireland) I think I can fairly say that colonialism is not the problem. Ireland had it hard under the British, blah-blah-blah, but 50 years after independence the place was still an economic backwater with low incomes, by western European standards. What changed in the last 25 years? People stopped blaming the Brits, the government, anybody but themselves for their problems and started working hard, starting small business, availing of the excellent free education system and so on.
I don't deny that colonialism can cause problems, and I certainly disagree with the tone and content of the parent post, but there's a good deal of truth in. You ARE on your own now. African nations are responsible for their own destinies. Have a revolution if your governments are corrupt, un-democratic and inefficient.
It's unfortunate that you worked with such a bunch of unhelpful people. That was never my experience in 12+ years working on the system in Ireland, the UK, Germany, The Netherlands, France and the US.
The system is quite intuitive -- the verb / noun structure of commands makes it easy to guess at the format of a command you don't know, as does the help / prompting system, and the command completion system.
The AS stands for Application System. The security is in place to prevent you from doing things that you aren't authorized to do -- no different from UNIX or any other secured system.
Your comment regarding security exposes a lack of knowledge in general, so perhaps I should have said ignorant instead of stupid.
Jesus, you poor sod. I graduated in 1988 and worked on the System/36 (the actual machine) for about a year before moving on to the AS/400, and years ago, Java...
As with most sweeping statements, this one is only partly true. The BBC, for example, is commercial-free. In Ireland, RTE (the state broadcaster) provides good value for the cost of those taxes. You don't pay the taxes now because you've moved, so why complain about them?

Wow. You're really tough.

Wow! You are just the man! May I have your autograph?
I feel your pain... is DaedalusHKX a Joycily Joycean reference?
I thought the mice were just an experiment, weren't the dolphins really running things? It's been a long time... so long, and thanks for all the fish!
Axel, er macht nur Spass... MfG, Ray
Too easy. Fish in a barrel. And not the balls to post but anonymously. You have been trolled.
Good one!

WRKUSRMND and choose option 1 against Timothy's mind, or CRTMNDNMB(Timothy).
Perhaps you're just stupid... it's a very user-friendly system.

Mel Gibson seems to be a bit of nutjob Christian fundamentalist.

And you don't? How do you avoid paying sales taxes?
It is indeed an eye-opener in its devastating clarity -- clarity of greed and individualism.
And we're happy you left! You're incoherent.
How ironic! Rumsfeld visited Hussein in the 80s, and this visit was a friendly one. WHat does that say about your administration?
Bah, never mind... I just read your subject line. Colour me homourless.
So what? Value-Added Tax is levied in all European countries on an almost all goods. It's our equivalent of sales tax.
Of course, that analogy only applies if you're a United States Nationalist.
At the commnd line, you can choose between JDKs using the command:
sudo jsettestjdk 1.3.1
or
sudo jsettestjdk 1.4.1
Hope that helps.
