When you say superglue, people automatically assoicate it with something that sticks well.. Like superglue. remember, the little people need it spelled out in a clear and concise manner.
They still impose heavy tarrifs on American goods.
You should see how much a Mustang GT goes for!
Even though you may speak the language you will never be excepted. You are forever a Gaijin.
We have been exposed to Japanese culture/anime since the 60's, Speed Racer is a classic example.
I aggree with some of the posts above. America is a leader in cultural entertainment. The Japanesse and the Koreans improve on exsisting ideas, American cars for example.
We(USA) can't make cars worth a shit anymore.
How is it that a country with no natural resources is able to make cars cheaper and better than America who have all the natural resources at our doorstep.
So It took another 7 lives to do the most simple thing.
That's the problem with politics/government jobs, if a junior person speaks up he is chastised and told to keep quiet. Or he/she is black listed and never given promotions.
Or they make your life misarable that you quit.
What a damn crying shame. It will happen again. Nothing has changed.
Sears is one of them. They announce a storewide 10% off sale but they are using the manufactures sticker price. So guess what, they aren't loosing any money it's an advertiseing gimick to get you to come to the store. Furniture stores are always having a flood sale.
Car dealers are always having a sale.
hmm if computers have come down in price over the years how come cars have not. Oh well, I guess it's going to take the Japanese and Koreans to force discount prices.
Oh yes it goes booth ways! There are a lot of former flower arrangers who one day realized that network admins were making 60k a year to manage 1 server! So they slammed thier flowers down and decided to take an MCSE class and now they are flower arrangers again;)
Seriously though, I have that running battle all the time and most of the time it's management who shoots down my recomendations to use an alternative product.Yes there are really combative admins out there. I admit, I am one of them at times but I try to be just as pleasent to work with. Security is on the top of my list and if there is any programming or product that breaches it then that product or feature will not be implemented.
I have nothing against programmers. We have two of them and they are a delight to work with, except when they start breaching security protocols because it makes thier life eaiser to transport data or they are given Carte Blanch over servers to do with they want. Trying to clean up after thier mess is a nightmare in most cases.
Just like Wallmart hirring illegal workers to clean the floors and the other dirty work. (Well actually the managers of each store trying to save a buck so that he can get a bigger bonus) They don't want to pay union wages for some guy to clean thier floors and bathrooms and take a 30 minute smoke break on every hour and the floors still look like shit.
In every job, economy and country there is always somone who is being exploited. The Haves have always exploited the Have not's Same shit different smell.
This country (USA) was built on exploitation. The Hoover Dam, The railrods, Bridges and Tunnels.
The IT hirring field is no different, unfortunately most HR departments don't know what the hell they are asking for. If you do get a job it's probably cleaning up the mess the last guy left behind. you can justify yourself by saying "Hey this last admin guy was really messed up".;)
Maybe some IT people are overpaid maybe not. Maybe because they now do the job of 10 Admins. Maybe everything is so streamlined now that you don't need 10 people to administer a network anymore?
I have an IT job, barely. I thank God I am able to pay my rent and buy Groceries.
Linus being subpoenaed should be able to bring the code that SCO says in violation of thier licence.
Linus: "Please show me the code that is in question". "That's it? Fuck here is the fix. Case closed. By the way you owe me a palne ticket and $2000.00 for my time."
Although I don't agree with the $250K bounty. I think it's better to have a bounty than to not have one.
I am not as smart as most of the Slashdot readers here but nobody has come up with a beter solution.
I know investing that money into MS to make the products more secure makes probably the most sense. But if Linux was the most popular OS (even with it's open source nature)wouldn't we be facing the same security problems with Linux now?

Buahha , That was funny. I could never be as witty.

It's not life as we know it.
The Earth has the uncanny ability to heal itself.
The only thing that pushes Apple to produce newer products are the investors that threaten to dump the stock.
Apple has no competition, so naturally it marches to the beat of it's own drum.
(hmm I can't hear anything)
What do we have a virus poster here???
If I ask my Boss for 20 grand I better come up with a list of hardware and what everything does in order to justify that kind of money.

I have a question. Would it be possible for the card to have world band capability?
Since I know nothing about radios I am going to asume that you need some extra components to get this to work?

I wonder why?
You know some people mean well and some people just further the advancement of another terror project.

Secuirty is only as good as if you enforce it and follow up on it.
Buahhah LOL
So true!!!! We have an Idian programmer and some of his translations are quite amusing.
He said Balls!
The Moon is OURS! We have a flag up there to prove it!
That's one beautiful Track Bike.
:(
I am scared of the damn things though.
In Atlanta you would get killed.
I hardly ride my Cannondale
Yeah they want you to know everything.

This wouldn't happen to be a Ensoniq ZR-76 would it??
Those keyboards were so nicley laid out.
I consider them to be the Commodore64/Amiga of keyboards.
To bad they went the they way of the C-64.
They were bought out by E-MU systems.
Most virus writers are serial killers?
That sounds like the description of a lot of serial killers.
I don't agree with her assesment
