The latest LTSP (which we recently upgraded too) supports locally connected USB devices (mice, thumbdrives, scanners, etc), and they can even be shared by multiple users! We have 45 users running off a single LTSP server (dual 2.4 ghz, 4 gigs RAM), providing OpenOffice, running Mochasoft through Wine (dont ask), Evolution email, firefox, etc. Runs really nice, and so easy to maintain!
Its just another crutch for people 'Oh, I am fat because of a disease'
That is typical of people these days, you never want to take personal responsability. All I am saying is that you should look at yourself before you try and jump on the bandwagon of blaming others, or a mythical disease.
evolution will take care of this too
Are you saying all the fat people will die?;)
On a side rant, just eat less and do SOMETHING physical on a daily basis. We all know WHY we are fat, now take a moment to train yourself to not get that way.
Sheesh, depression is not an illness!! Get outside, hang out with family or people, do some exercise! Doctors want you to medicate for depression, when all you need to do is try and make a lifestyle change. Do you really think that the human body is meant to sit inside watching TV and stuffing food down your gullet 7 hours out of every 24??? Dont take medication just to accommodate your sedentary lifestyle, try jogging or even walking around your block. You will feel a ton better, and not have to pay a red cent for a doctor bill or a prescription.
Of course, most people will scoff and ignore this, and go get their pills anyway. Enjoy a life of continued depression and dependency on drugs.
the war on terror is just an excuse for those in power to gather more power to themselves, and to control the masses. Its all bull-shit meant to scare people. Vote for someone other than a GOP.
Some geeks have attempted to hijack
Bullshit, there is no hijacking involved! Frikin walk up to the curb, open laptop, and use it. Do you need permission to turn on the TV and watch open air TV shows? How about 'permission to view' the flowers in front of my house? If people are too ignorent to use a piece of hardware, they shouldnt purchase it. Read the frikin big printed poster that shows you how to secure your access point. Otherwise, you deserve what you get.
yea, but when you are deploying an internal only app for a network that you completely control, you can develop for whatever you want. Personally I make sure by apps work with Firefox and IE 6, then we made sure everyone internally is using one of those. Piece of cake.
Well thats fine, why would we want to take an awesome user supported OS and 'dumb it down' for the masses?? As soon as linux is 'accepted' by those masses, us geeks will just find a new elite OS to use and it will start all over =)
Windows was never thought of as 'easy' when it first came out. You still had to learn how to use it, what to click to close a window, the concepts of using a mouse, right click, etc. Linux is just different enough from a window PC that there will be a learning curve. Frankly, I wouldnt want another OS that was exactly like windows.
Anything worth doing is worth some effort. Just sit down with linux for a bit and you will find it can do everything that Windows can do, just a bit different.
Much harder than DM'ing is trying to teach a new player how to play. Trying to get across that a new character isnt rolled each session (most love the character creation, but suck at roll playing) Does anyone have suggestions on reading material for a new D&D player that goes over the basics from a higher level?? I tried to get my wife to read parts of the Players guide, and she got a bit glossed over at all the statistical tables.
Well, historically it has always been a supply / demand economy that dictates pricing. When bread is common and crops are good, it is cheap. when its rare, its pricey. Software changes all of that, because once it is written, it can be copied as many times as you would like, and it never 'goes bad', gets corrupted, etc. It is hard to see that as stealing, when you didn't physically take something. I know music companies love to say that somehow you downloading the song made them 'loose revenue', but in most cases, I just wanted to hear a song right then, and I will never listen to it again, and I didn't plan on buying the CD in the 1st place.
Posted by an AC. At least I have the balls to post what I really think instead of karma whoring it up. And I really do get sick of the same "I'm kewl because I answer either 'Linux, Notepad, or Vim'" to every darn question. You should read the rest of my post, maybe you would learn something.
Ghey Ghey. You dont sound elite when someone invariably sais 'Vim' or 'Use Notepad', you just sound like an elitist ass.
Dreamweaver is great, lately I find myself using Eclipse IDE with the CFEclipse plugin, and I am loving it. With the proper plugins it does any language you want with code suggest, color coding, shrinking comments or code sections (I LOVE this part, and missed it from Homesite), and it runs nice on any machine I have loaded it on (did I mention its free?)
The only downside to Eclipse vs Dreamweaver is that Eclipse doesnt integrate as well into a FTP, SSH, or RDS server like dreamweaver can. Otherwise, Eclipse can do all that AND a bag of potato chips!
oh come on, bull shit. Do you remember the newbie days of 'trying to find pron' online??? Sooo many popups (many of them damn nasty, close quick!). You cant use someones internet history as a 'moral ruler', can you say you have never had anything nasty pop up on your screen that you didnt intend? Remember searchign early search engines? 'britney spears' would pull up so many crappy celeb porno sites its not even funny! And really, you would want someone to go to jail for 'viewing' a web site? Since when is knowledge illegal? This kind of thing would put wayyy to much arbitrary power in the hands of people who dont understand the internet.
1) Palading paladin
I have fought paladins too many times when they just start their 'invulnerability' aura, then insta heal, then insta full heal. Dont bitch about paladins, thats bull-shit. Just because they dont have the highest DPS doesnt mean they are not viable. People try and play a healer class an expect to whoop ass, get over it.
Yea, like a friend of mine who said 'the hissing/chittering sound my computer is making is from the Ram. See, its new DDR 3200, and it switches so fast it makes that noise'......

The REAL WORLD is in the woods, in nature.
Eric Cartman put it best: Hippies.They're everywhere. They wanna save the earth, but all they do is smoke pot and smell bad.
Probably not 'free', but with all that people will come to rely on the internet, I see it becoming a 'utility', like gas or electric.
Enjoy it while you can Comcast, you price gouging suckers. Its gonna be cheap soon!
