Then, one week a space capsule could land, next week Wrong-way Feldman. Send some cannibals their way another week. All they have to do is hope and pray for a hurricane to get them home.
And that is one of the biggest reasons linux isn't making more headway. The designers aren't customer-driven. They are designing for what they are looking for. And this is why some of the other distros have some of these neat tools, because they are focused on customers.
Is it time to get some *gasp* marketing people involved in Linux development, to nudge developers into putting features users want into the distros?
Instead of asking Slashdot the question you did, why didn't you just ask for a solution to the problem. Maybe there's an open source answer out there for you already.
Just because ebay is offering group insurance to this group of individuals does not mean that it's costing ebay anything. Other groups, such as owner-operator truckers have plans available to them for being members of a group.
Chamber of Commerce plans do the same thing for small businesses. The group buying power is what helps lower the rates.
So this insurance still ends up costing the Power Sellers more per month than most plans they would get as employees, because ebay isn't pitching in the 50-70% that many employers do.
who is going to check each machine to make sure the employee using it didn't crack it open to swipe some RAM?
Just install Windows XP. Everytime someone opens the case, the machine will have to be re-registered with Microsoft, because of the major change to the system.

Another piece of interesting software is Furthur. Though still only in beta, Furthur has cool features like allowing a user to piggy-back another user's download to reduce the load of the uploader.
So, now the RIAA can piggyback on my download and prove that I was downloading illegal content?
You CAN fire an alcoholic, if it affects there job performance. They are protected if they are in treatment, and are not still abusing substance which affects their performance.
This is about changing someones JOB DESCRIPTION so they can do the job with carpal tunnel.
While Carpal Tunnel may not be a disability under the ADA, which says the problem must affect life activities, OSHA has been cracking down on repetitive stress injuries.
If her condition is work-related, it's covered under workers compensation. In that case she would be eligible for _Workers_Comp_ disability benefits.
Short and Long-term disability insurance is for illnesses or injuries, usually not work-related, which cause someone to miss work. Birth of baby/Pregnancy, for example, is covered under short-term disability benefits, but is NOT covered under the ADA. Same with broken arms, legs, pneumonia...
There are different definitions of disability depending on which laws you're talking about.
So, I was xeroxing a bunch of resumes the other day to send out to company, when my [non-Xerox] copier got jammed. It seems that every time I try to xerox a bunch of stuff at once this problem happens. Does anyone else have problems when they're xeroxing items????

That's what it sounds like to me, redundant storage of DNS info and content
Rotary phones numbers are listed counter-clockwise. When you dialed, you turned the wheel clockwise, with "1" being the shortest.
The number here just aren't in quite the same position.
You are so right. I agree 100 percent.

People living near the windmills have complained of the humming noise they produce. Drives them nuts.

Hardly pays to post this article. I think we all know what the slashdot readers' viewpoint is.
It's everywhere you (don't) want (it) to be.
I read the headline as "Anonymous Will" awards $200,000 for Xbox Linux.
Anonymous Will --> Anonymous Bill --> Bill Gates.
It's a pretty easy conclusion.
I got dibs on the Six tubes of assorted Tinker Toys. Haven't played with those in ages.

Actually, it was...it was... "Soap Poisoning". No, No, No. It was: Be sure to drink your ovaltine.

Doesn't the record industry realize that a good portion of blank CD's are used for other things? Like illegally copying software??
