In EQ you just have to choose a name with a x at the end and petition when you come up with a good surname
On my current char I started as "Ealarx" and managed to slip "Crackforhead" through the surname filter, then I petitioned to get my name changed to "Moor Crackforhead", it's quite amusing if I do say so myself:)
Since sony had nothing to do with the publishing of EQ until the very end of production. EQ was produced by 989studios, and is continually "patched" by verant. The inital server infrastructure came from Sony, but I have no doubt that Brad et all could have found another buisness to get them off the ground.
IE is about 89% of google hits, desigining your site for IE only would be the type of choice that would cause your company to go bankrupt. Good thing you have a job as a web designer, eh?
It's just a matter of time, AOL/TW would love to be able to cut MS out of the check when people buy thier new "AOL" machine. Remember it's not IE vs Gecko, its AOL/TW vs MS-NBC. If MS-NBC controls the internet, they have already won half the battle.
I've never heard of said college. I just finished my college search in the CS career a few years back, and never once got refered to even look at them. This leads me to believe it's one of those "get a few credits and transfer" schools, not a real college.
The reply to that is actually short but sweet. The crucial point is not to just email webmaster, but find a CxO or someone who has real power, and eloquently express why you have put your cash in someone elses hands.
What would happen if tomorow your Department head got a E-Mail forwarded from the CxO that you had lost a customer due to laziness on your part?
Is your department head going to go "it's ok, no one but this one freak uses mozilla, we can safely ignore him", or is there going to be some extra hours worked by you this week.
I think the later, at least at *every* company I've ever worked for in america.
I've seen a few of those on idoits, er I mean co-workers desks at work. There is really no excuse to not be using Mozilla anymore. It's clearly superior in almost every way, and I haven't found a webpage since 1.1a that hasn't rendered to be honest.
DMCA is about the cesation of the exchance of *PUBLIC IP* that happens to interact with private IP. The fact that it exists to destroy the "marketplace of ideas" that our country was partially founded on makes it reprehensable. The fact that it only affects a certain sector of this market is a nonissue, because the removal of any PUBLIC IP for the good of anything is "Un-American", and I'd even be so far-fetched as to say it's Un-Democratic.
How? Follow this example, while it is the extreme, it clearly shows where we are today. A new law about computer security is being discussed in congress, and they bring in some experts to share the current state of exploits. The sharing of that specific knowledge in order to allow a more informed decision by the congress would in itself be illegal. Not because the information is under a acute monopoly, but because that information is illegal in this country. I repeat, that information (Remeber, this information is PUBLIC IP) is *ILLEGAL IN THIS COUNTRY*.
For another example. Imagine that a diffrent law was under debate, a law that had some effect on "pirating" and "hacking", this law required a complete review of the current laws in the area, and thier usage. If this case goes to court, all of the records pertaining to the security vunerability will be secured legally, not just under the DMCA anymore. Congress would be unable to discuss the specifics of this vunerability, and make an informed decision about what new laws need passed.
In both of these situations, information that is clearly PUBLIC IP has been removed from the reach of our lawmakers, causing them to make less than perfect decisions. This is clearly a hinderance on democracy, and obtains that status by disrupting the free trade of public information. This information was deemed unacceptable to exist, and therefore it became illegal to share it. No other possible subset of information not covered under contractual/patent law is so bound in our free country, that makes this the first time in 2 centuries that censored an idea for being bad to a pattent holder. (ed: sorry weak tie there, couldn't think of a better one)
I believe I have upheld my value of the marketplace of ideas, and shown that by limiting democracy a free marketplace is unable to exist.
The problem with this is there isn't a HL7/type proticol for ticket creation (sorry HL7 stuck in mind, been coding up an interface for past few days/cry). It would require more work than worth getting the programs queries molded into the format of your DB (the best solution would be if you could get the people to send XML queries, it would make them 190% easier to parse).
I'm just saying I see alot of windows distros go to shit after 6 months, and I know I've had to re-install windows more than once for friends.
Even if it is possible to mantain a clean system while running windows, it is apparently significantly harder to keep it at that state than it is for me. I don't feel that I'm a "guru" or that my knowledge of my system is anything above what an average user would have, I mostly just use the ports system and use pre-compiled app's for configuration. I know for a fact a user who just installed programs and used the control pannel in windows would have to be very astute in order to keep a stable system going (as I have created several unstable ones myself).
Also I find it hard to believe your actually really running outlook, that takes some real guts =p.
of the movie for "Signs" where your entire section of the theatre bursts out laughing when one of the "aliens" (or whatever) is supposed to be stalking the guy in the field.
I totally agree, speaking as one who agrees with the removal of forced pledges containing "under" good in the classroom I'll have to say in *most* situations I'm against church and state working together.
BUT, I feel that especially in elective classes there should be no reason religion can't be taught thorougly. Understanding what a religion means is one thing, saying "nation under god" (which has very few alternate meanings) is another.
I think it's a bane to our youth to force schools to be devoid of all religious content, people should be exposed to all types of religions. I happened to be raised christian, so I knew about all the christian holidays and traditions/meanings, but had I not I would have known christians are some "other people" by the time I graduated HS.
It's hard to find one that isn't web-based anymore. Be sure you have them do the demo in Mozilla on Linux though, I've always found having them do demos in a non-native environment lets you see through what the real product will function like.
The problem is gravity is so poorly defined (at least to my understanding) that it dosen't violate per se, more like redefining.
When I see a proof against the posibility of there being anti-gravity in any situation in this universe, I'll believe it. Until then I'm failing to see how gravity can be the only completly immutable force in the universe just "because it is".
I have a FreeBSD box thats over 2 years old and has 5gb of ports installed, it runs just like the day I built it. It's gone through several upgrades and mutiple functions, it has had significant re-configurations on those function changes. It is my primary home workstation currently.
If we are going to bring up single-instance as an example of the norm, I believe mine supports far more than yours does, as what I have is almost impossible for *anyone* who uses IE/Outlook to maintain for longer than a year.
it dosen't make any more sense in polite english =p
"my most memorable moment was when 11 frogs (high level xp mobs, normally pulls are between 1 and tops 5), in sebilis (high level xp place), in chief (one of the harder places to fight at 57 as single enchanter), at 57 (still not overly powerful at 60, but getting there), started at 80mana (which is more than enough when enchanters are concerned for most fights, but this wasn't "most fights"), and no one got taped except the main tank (in EQ you try and make it so all mobs are mezed [stuned, ench is only class that can cast it, it's thier job to control the dmg flow in the fight], and only 1 mob is attacking a single player whom you cast complete heal on once a minuite or so, its the most efficent way)"
I figured if anyone got it that they would get it, it was far to much work to try and explain everything as you can see =p
This happened to me often in EQ, it's what I account my skill to. I often felt I "was" my character. I played an enchanter, and had many outstanding (even amazing in a few situations)
My most memorable moment was 11 frogs in seb chef at 57, started at 80m and not one touched anyone but the MT, when I got done I sorta "phazed in" and felt like I had just been on some sort of "trip". Lets just say I didn't have troubles finding groups with the guilds I was grouped with that night for a while hehe.

You get more uppers from a 24oz bottle of mtn dew. I'm not personally very worried.
Store it in a spring or other resilant form then.
your sig..
not getting
take the out of my sig for email
is not a valid address?
Take the @ out of my sig for email
seems rather odd in todays DNS driven internet
This brings up a good point, is it possible to complete *any* construction/engineering project without any duct tape?
:)
I'd venture to guess negative, but if someone can prove that it's possible to build anything w/o the use of the holy matter, please do so

Of course you have blown your credibility with the above as well.
It can be completly disgarded if the G4 performed 2.5x more instructions per cycle than the P4.
Um, you mean internet explorer theme is inferior to IE, even though they are pixel-for-pixel identical?
Not to mention, I'd love to see some of this CSS that breaks mozilla.. Because it dosen't exist.
Nothing that works in IE dosen't work in Moz, it's been that way since 1.0.
Prove me wrong on the latest nightly build, and I'll paypal you 5$, My email is sfritz@postmaster.co.uk

wtf dude, go to best buy and ask to buy a USB2.0 device.
Oh whats that, they don't exist?
yeah, exactly
Not to mention "earlier this year" (as in feburary) is NOT 1 year ago. All you trolls can go the away, thank you.
