So when I go through jabber.orgs servers I can access any presence on those decentralized servers and be a part of the decentralized network? Last I checked (last month), that was still a pipe dream of the architecture and was still being developed.
When I log on to an XMPP server I have access to exactly what is on that specific server, not any of the others.
Herein is the rub. Sun didn't open up Solaris so people could port the useful bits elsewhere or feel free to violate the patents in other products - they opened it up so people could better Solaris. Their intentions are entirely self-serving in this regard... but there isn't anything particularly wrong or evil with that.
Export the Design template to HTML and Word. You will have to go behind the exported format and completely adjust it to something that is even remotely close to the original source format.
Take the family newsletter template. It will convert parts of this that has user editable text into one big image, while simultaneously splitting up some single columns into several columns. It will dump background entirely when they could become table backgrounds and it will use fonts that aren't likely to be present in many other places.
I've been surprised at how many people glaze over the flaws in Pages when they are fairly significant and wouldn't be glazed over in Office. While I do use Pages the problems with are very pronounced, especially from an export perspective. Unless you're exporting to PDF or raw Text, the export is just poor.
Stop using every product in your inventory as a "political" statement, we just don't care anymore. Give customers what they want at a reasonable price and just shut the hell up. If you want to make a statement - make better products.
No I'm afraid you're wrong here. A mac uses a normal USB keyboard and mouse just like EVERY other PC out there. You can even go buy Microsoft's latest expensive mouse/keyboard combo for $80 bucks and it will plug right in and work without you even installing drivers.
The memory upgrade will cost you $77 bucks if you pull the 256 and replace it with a 512 as the Mac uses the same mac that you use - PC2700 which is both plentiful and cheap.
Well all I can tell you is what is in the log of the cable modem each and every time this happens. There are a variety of people experiencing this problem
with a variety of different hardware, router, and OS configs. The only thing that seems to be common across them all is a LARGE portion of people experiencing the problem are using Comcast and Motorola cable modems.
Actually no. Your cable modem can be told to update via remote commands from yoru cable company (as well as other things). When it crashes, take a look at your cable modem log and see if it says its trying to perform a remote update with no matching response from the cable company.
I have comcast in my area and Bellsouth. Since they can't offer me HSI at 3+ MB/s since I have fiber coming into my house I had to dump them and move to Comcast. Comcast has proven to be mostly reliable at my location in Atlanta - I'd put them in the 99% group, but they have some issues with things like cable boxes resetting suddenly for no reason:)
And Mac users too. There is also a problem that Blizzard won't acknowledge where upon accepting quests the client/server pair send packets that reset cable/dsl modems disconnecting you from the internet.
While very different in nature and purpose, the potential gain that makes an employee share option valuable is similar to the potential gain that makes a lottery ticket valuable. An individual buys a lottery ticket because it gives the holder the right to potentially receive valuable assets (generally cash) in the future. The payment for the lottery ticket is similar to the option premium paid (cash or employee services) for the share option. Even if the probability of winning those valuable assets is extremely low, the lottery ticket still has value until the winning number is known (at which point the winning ticket's value increases, and a losing ticket's value decreases to zero). In contrast to a typical lottery ticket, which is valid for one drawing only, a share option is valid for multiple drawings (that is, each day a share option is outstanding can be viewed as an independent drawing because the value of the share can change, making the share option more or less valuable).
When I can start writing off my lottery tickets, THEN corporations should be able to write off theirs.:)
If you get drunk and beat up someone as a first offense and then repeat that action, that's your own fault IMO. You chose to enter a drunken state where you know you've assaulted people for certain so I would say that you can't hide behind "no intent". You knew that the outcome was both possible and real as it happened once before already.
Companies shouldn't be allowed to expensive giving an "option" to an employee. At best they should be able to expensive it ONLY when the employee excercises that option. When a company gives an employee an option to something that the employee may not want nor ever use, the company is getting a dumping ground write-off where as the employee STILL has to expend money AND pay taxes on the speculative venture.
The only thing that businesses should have the ability to write off is actual tangible stock grants - not options. The value of an options is $0.00, so unless they are getting nothing in their writeoff it shouldn't be allowed.
One of the principles of business is the maximization of profit. That's the nature of the animal and that's not going to change. What people call 'greed' is most times 'successful execution of business strategy'.
The only relevant question here is whether or not broadband should be a delivered service like 'mail' and 'garbage pickup'.
That's fine. I just wonder why they can't just get to the point where a city decides it can put in a fiber run to the home and lease that to the Bells. In this way the city can own the infrastructure and license it out to multiple carriers. This seems to serve all interests IMO.
I detest the idea that I can only get Comcast cable at my home. I hate the idea that I have to use the same people (who suck and steal city funds) for water, trash, recycling etc. I want there to be more people competing in ALL areas.

There is something very very wrong with that at an ethical level and at a legal level.
Costa Rica is ripe for regime change! :)

To see it running in person on a phone that I already own and then have a place where I can order it :)
Download the TIVO SDK http://tivohme.sourceforge.net/ and then you can put in functionality that you want that they haven't provided.

Amen to that. If you can give me more than that for a fair price that's fine, but that's really all I need.
Sounds a whole lot like many of our municipal utilities and telco/cable situations.

First you need to make sock puppets. That's when the real bucks roll in.
