Combined with an Open Source/Forkable license, what more could a Solaris Geek want?
I would like an LDAP user authentication client that works without needing patching out of the box.
What? Solaris 8, 9, and 10 offered no such thing? They made my Solaris admin job a living hell?
God, I'm glad we use Linux here at my new job, where things work upon installation, and upgrades add new features, not promised ones that weren't originally delivered.
It does, however, strike me as odd that this remarkably full-featured 3D graphics program is in capable of properly importing/exporting MD2 models.
It's not Blender Foundation's fault, since the plugin is maintained by someone else, but maybe it should be; am I mistaken in thinking that this is a very popular format?
I really like Blender, but until it can properly export/import Quake MD2 files, it's not suitable to my purposes.
For plain ol' prerendered CG, though, it fucking rocks the house down.
You are phenomenally ignorant. The difference between all the OSes you cited and OS X is that OS X is user-friendly to the point where you don't need to be a geek at all to use it. That's why it's the first x86 OS that could actually compete with Windows for market share.
For the vast majority of non-technocratic computer users, OS X does everything they need, and then some. Safari, Finder, iTunes, iPhoto, Microsoft Office, Adium X(or official clients), Flash...when a personal computer is nothing more than a means to a technologically illiterate end, Apple fits the bill perfectly.
Probably not, since QEMU can't reliably run any non-free OS out there (well, I guess it runs DOS okay). Stick with VMware until they make their next release.
If you're as technically competent as you're making yourself out to be, I bet you get requests to "make the Internet work" and whatnot all the time.
My advice? Charge those people for tech support. Even if you charge half of what the cheapest shop in town charges, you'll be making mad bank, and have uber-happy customers.
At least, that's what I did before I got my internship.
Which I didn't get until my junior year of college after four years of applying, even though I was qualified for all of those four years. The truth of the matter is that it's just damned hard to get an internship as a high school student.
In summary: Charge for tech support, make mad bank, and hold off on the internship until you're an undergrad.
For the average Windows desktop user, what is "eth0" and "eth1" supposed to mean? For folks with multiple built in ethernet ports and only one connected, this is a hassle trying to figure out which port has the cable hooked to it.
You're right, on my Windows box, I have a "NVIDIA nForce Networking Adaptor" and a "Marvell Yukon Gigabit Network Adaptor." That way, I can tell which port is which.
Or, rather, I can't, and you're an idiot.
I won't even touch installing software not already included with a distribution. (And yes, I'm quite aware of yum, apt-get, and emerge.)
So, you're not touching the subject because it's not a problem? To me, Synaptic on Ubuntu beats the hell out of "Add/Remove Programs."
While I'm aware there's no way to prove you actually know what you're talking about, I'll pretend like I believe you./It will take the wind from Sony's sails./
Because the PS3 will be selling like hotcakes then? Wait...no.
It must be to get rid of that artificial hype that the PS3 has because it's weaker than the 360. Wait...no, that's not it either.
If it's going to be $269, it's because the 360 is going to be the "DreamCast" of the next-gen systems; more powerful, but not able to keep up with the state-of-the-art after a couple years.
Uhm..."propagates to everything?"
Surely you don't mean everything. The benefits of multicore-whatever are obvious, but having two keyboards on your laptop solves nothing.
Perhaps elucidate on what you mean by "everything?" IMO, any processing unit can benefit from distributed/multicore design.

Yeah, those are the ones I'm talking about. Broken. The files they export don't load properly in Quake 2, among other games.
Well, I could do that.

Somehow, I doubt it; that torrent was added on April 26.

"in light of the clothing company's embrace of nanotech in its recent line of stain-resistant nanopants"
Stain resistant nanopants? Sounds high-tech, sign me up.
Not only that, but "there isn't much aesthetic values," either.
I think you mean herpes.

Damn, I've got to get me some of that.

But what's he's getting at is that it's from Utah State University! That's why it will replace guide dogs.
...hmm.
...when my eyes aren't busy bleeding profusely.
They made major changes to the plot. That cannot be excused away...
...Except for the fact that he wrote them in there, when he himself wrote the first version of the screenplay.
Yeah, like that whole Humma Kavula thing and the POV gun. I bet Douglas Adams is rolling in his grave over that.
Why don't you use a real shell environment, like Common Lisp?
Well, I hate to present your trolling with these pesky facts, but Apple Automator will definitely help with improving productivity.
Yes, exactly. Except for not at all, but barring that detail, yes, you're right.

I concur. Those Legend of Zelda comics were weapons-grade good.
AFAIK, many Ubuntu packages are old. In fact only the ones on the CD are newer.
Yeah, I mean I can't stand using X.Org 6.8, GNOME 2.8, and on a 2.6 kernel? OMG, that is so this week.
Oh...wait...
What's tragic is the stranglehold she has on our nation's news media at the moment.
