Now what happens when I am walking at night and spot a landed UFO with an alien in the bushes - Just how am I supposed to run to a store, stand in line, rent the camera and get back in time to snap a pic before the alien is finished taking a piss???
Then I installed Linux at work on a spare server (supposed to be for DRP but what the hey!). The best part is that I set it up with PXE support. I have about 25% of the company running linux without touching their OS on their systems. Just set the workstation to network boot and presto Linux (similar to Knoppix). They like it alot better 'cause they are sharing a 2.8Ghz Xeon with 4GB of RAM. Most were used to PII300's. They can always skip the network boot and boot into Windows but they are doing it less and less now Especially since I have really cool games on the server =).
I hope to have the whole company converted by christmas!
Apparently, the holo-deck emiters are very flakey. No sooner had I put a cup of coffee on the holder when the emitters went offline - cup holder disappeared and I had hot coffee all over the place...
I live in an apartment where a newlywed couple sneaks up to the roof to do something every night. So, I am going to build one using a big yellow smiley-face balloon to find out exactly what these two are up to =).
Obviously...

If you don't feel comfortable opening up a small device like an MP3 player, or don't have a burning need for more space on your Nomad, do NOT attempt these procedures.
WTF? He must be a/. newbie to post somthing that has that kind of disclaimer.
Actually the ping will never traverse the same network. The data will go over the postal network and a single ACK will come back over the telephone network. Data loss will occur at unacceptable rates due to the medium (postal service) and ACK loss will be high too (Telco)
Domino started as a document management product that shoehorned in messaging support
and...
Exhange is a messaging product that is still trying to shoehorn in document management support
What we need is something built from the ground up to handle messaging, document management, workflow and calendar/sched.. shoehorns are great but in a little while your feet start to ache.
I used to work for a clone manufacturer a long time ago who made IBM PC and AT clones. Every time we built a new model it had to go through CSA testing (Canadian version if UL). When we got them back I swear that some of them were still smoking. To top it all off we had to use working parts! If it did not boot it did not pass inspection.
Perhaps a little off-topic but... Is it just me or does the opensource logo look like a green toilet seat? - They need a better logo, I mean really, a green toilet seat?
Mr Bean would use a toilet for a water cooler 'cause Mr. Bean knows that a toilet has aproximately 1.6 gallons per flush which is much more efficient than some old small pissy assed water pump....

The drivers are crap, and the box dies about every week or so
You should call the server "Kenny"!
As in Southpark: Oh my God you killed Kenny!

Well at least the robots would be well greased...
I guess that makes me a proponent of micropayment no?
Windows has everything to loose.
You either meant to say "Windows has everything to lose." or "Windows has everything too loose."
Either is correct since Microsoft is not known for their tight code...
That is where we want to go today!

Not necessarily, a true geek would sleep through astronomy class. Well, most of it anyway - but only upon hearing the words "binary star system"
What about cannibals? Would the AI algorithym automatically call the cops?

When janitors by day get programming contracts sometimes they get confused. That is the origin of the adage - Garbage In, Garbage Out.
How is it you ask that janitors or other unqualified people get these programming contracts? Not to slag janitors ('cause it is nice clean work)
I can think of only one reason. Kickbacks come to mind...

$0.25 a gallon? Wow, where do you get gas from?
I dunno, I think it was at Frank's beanery - only it was $2.95 per bowl. Not as expensive as ink but definitely cheaper than champange!
