  1. Re:building a? on Building A (Serious) Home Network From Scratch · · Score: 1

    Finding a female...in a computer programming class? Surely you're kidding. This must be one of those deals where the funeral director finds out 60 years later she's actually a man.

    What, after she's had a kid?

    Her hole is so wide I'm afraid my head will fall in and I'll have to call the paramedics to pull me out. Besides wives aren't very interested in sex after the first few years of marriage.

    I hate using framemaker. Poorly-ported Mac software is always the worst. Or maybe I'm thinking of pagemaker. Who cares, it sucks.

    Hey, don't be picky. There are lots of folks out there that thinks Microsoft made Halo, and Close Combat.

    You only need a bare level of hand-eye coordination to whack off while watching Japanese cartoon women. It's not like it requires a specialty.

    BZZZT wrong. This project has already been budgeted. If the project manager fails to spend the entire budget, how will he justify more spending in the future? And if no further spending is justified, what does that say about the job security of the project manager?

    You have to work in education for a while before you get these things.

    Funny, being irretrievably AWAY from U.S. television is one of the things I like MOST about going overseas.

    You have a lot to learn about trolling, young one. This effort gets a grade of "W", for Weak.

  9. Re:How does mozilla handle old caches? on Netscape 7.1 Released · · Score: 1

    No, it happens everywhere. It's just the problem is much worse on pages that take forever to load, for obvious reasons. I can go to any page, click on a link, and go back to the preceding page, and IE will load the entire thing again. Been there, seen the logfiles.

  10. Re:How does mozilla handle old caches? on Netscape 7.1 Released · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I have the opposite problem. IE loads every page, regardless of whether it has the page on hand already or not. Especially irritating on those 360k-per-page web-based discussion boards, going back and forth on threads. And you can forget keeping any text you type in a text box if you go forward or backward in history.

    You might save money initially on the price of a bunch of old PCs, but as soon as you turn them all on you will notice a new monthly cost in the form of expensive electricity bills.

    Commercial advertisers are doing a terrible job. According to this site, commercials are a dead place.

    Some choice quotes:

    "All the 'watchers' in my front room agreed that Budweiser should NEVER be purchased by any self-respecting woman."
    "These advertisers and their ad agencies' personnel apparently do not include this consumer in their demographics, for they failed to communicate with me at all."
    All in all, a stinging rebuke to the commercial producers.

    How about a requirement that all staff members must shower daily?

    Obviously, this would never work for the customers.

    You have the Intellivision confused with that other piece of crap, the Atari. The Intellivision in 1981 was fully 16-bit. By contrast, Microsoft sold 16-bit operating systems until 1997 or so.

    Er, that was B-17 Bomber, with the objective of the game being to bomb Europe. The B-52 bomber version of the game would have been far more fun :). In addition, in a rare display of good taste, B-17 Bomber was not released by Mattel in Europe.

    Raise zealots? I was under the impression that Mac users weren't exactly growing. It's just the same people who have always used them. Sure, there have been a few people who define their personality by what they purchase and display to others (trucker hats, iMacs, new VW bug, etc) but the average user really could care less.

    Which skill will serve the students better later in life - familiarity with Microsoft Windows, or the ability to write research papers in formal English with footnotes?

    If you said footnotes, try again. Nobody in uses footnotes after college is over.

    You poor thing...did you have a good job during the dot-com boom, and now nobody will hire you because you're the only one that thinks that "we don't need to buy new software, a linux box can do that!" Hint: get a haircut, and start wearing a shirt with a collar to job interviews.

    Wow, a beer snob. I thought the rest of those were gone with the close of the microbrew era back in '99. Get a life man, there are better things to do than knock back $6 glasses of beer while contemptuously sneering at the underclass.
