  1. Anyone see this site off the list? on Giant List Of Linux-based Live CDs · · Score: 1

    I started looking at the website when I saw that a URL into the website was: http://nwst.de/livelinuxcd/lilinux.phtml?include=h tm/en_about.htm.. So, here I am, being the snoop that I am, and I tried: http://nwst.de/livelinuxcd/lilinux.phtml?include=/ etc/passwd.. It works! ROFL

  2. Re:ITracker - J2EE Issue Tracker on How Do You Manage Requests in Your Organization? · · Score: 1

    Actually, I haven't reached that point yet. There are quite a few Gantt chart components for rich clients (Swing based, probably). More than likely, I'll find someone like PHProjekt (I think) that has done it in HTML and dupe their approach (server side). Either way, I know I have the data, just need the time to generate it.

  3. ITracker - J2EE Issue Tracker on How Do You Manage Requests in Your Organization? · · Score: 1, Informative

    I use ITracker, which deploys on Tomcat, JBoss and other J2EE application servers. I made some changes to my local CVS copy to support requested completion date, est start date, est end date, actual start and actual end. With that info, I can write reports and generate gantt charts to manage my IT and web content requests at church. I hope to offer the changes to the project so that others may benefit as well.

  4. Netscape? on AOL Lays Off 50 Netscape Coders · · Score: -1, Troll

    Netscape? Who's Netscape?

  5. Wow! on Gamers Aren't (Always) Geeks · · Score: 1

    That was short, but pointless...

  6. 3 Things I Want Remade on Bard's Tale Sequel In Development? · · Score: 3, Interesting
    3 Things I Want Remade:
    • Bard's Tale (yay!)
    • Mail Order Monsters from the C=64
    • Starflight - there are way too many fantasy RPGs out there and not enough Sci-Fi ones
  7. Re:Wow. on The Ultimate Gaming Table · · Score: 1, Insightful

    You had a table? What about sleeping bags, pillows, an old tape deck playing cheezy soundtracks, and dice amuk due to the random monster attacks of your cat? Tables - Bah I say!

  8. Solaris is $$, their hardware is free on Solaris 9: Sticker Shock · · Score: 1
    "People say you buy a Sun server and get Solaris for free. No, you don't," Zander said. "The hardware is free as far as I'm concerned; we just charge $200,000 for Solaris." -- Ed Zander, transitioning COO for Sun talking about their N1 strategy.

    So, how about giving me one of those E10000's and I'll put Linux on it.. Total cost: $0.

  9. This happened to me last year on How Not To Ship Computers · · Score: 1

    I spent many hours putting together a desktop for my mother-in-law. Time spent setting it up in a "bullet-proof, they can dial in and have have fun with it Christmas morning". I even purshased a new case to remove power supply problems and shipped a 17" monitor with it. All screws were tight, and I even made a Norton Ghost backup in case Windows crashed hard in the future.

    UPS decided to play football with the machine. I had it insured, but they rejected it because "I didn't pack it according to their requirements". Course, I shipped the machine in a box that the case was shipped in! You would think that if they can ship a case in a tight box with packing all around, I can ship the same case in the same box with components inside! In the end, my in-laws' Christmas was spent picking up a video card, sound card and power/ribbon cables from within the case and trying to reassemble it with me on the phone.

    Lesson: Use FedEx! UPS won't take responsiblity for their holiday hires that seem to like trying out for the NFL with my packages than doing their job!
