AppleShare over IP works just as well going Mac to Mac. I'm not sure what the Windows to Windows options are.
So, regarding that little spot about the cross platform stuff, did you miss the 'cross' part? That's sort of essential to cross platform. What you've descibed is the opposite of cross platform. And then to mention how you don't know how the 'windows to windows' options are is shorthand for saying "I didn't bother to read the question, and I will answer it despite knowing nothing about cross platform solutions. But in any case, here's what worked for me in an entirely different scenario, using two machines with the same OS."
Wow, thank you for clarifying the obvious. I was unclear if it would be more difficult to recycle my newpaper or the computer under the desk. I guess we can close the case on this one, eh?
I really was inspired by the part where you mention how computer contain many little parts. This was news to me. I had always figured they were similar to a large block of gelatin.
Not really, since English is more widespread than [native language]. Yeah, you can hire someone who speaks only English, but what about your local customers? The old saying is "Buy in your language, sell in theirs."

So you pick countries where they speak French, German, Swiss German, [tons] Asia, Dutch, et al. That's quite a lot of languages. Did you consider that perhaps the reason is that you cannot communicate? Lingua Franca doesn't get jobs. It gets dirty looks.
As for French, forget it. Unless you have a certificate from Alliance Francaise, forget it. That's the golden standard in Francophone countries. Get working. It'll take you about a year to get that -- if you pass their tests. It's not easy, the teachers are not nice.
Actually, if you have some cash, I recommend the Institute International de Rambouillet. They're pretty affordable, and the teachers are decent.
Excellent fucking work, my friend. Yes, I failed to take note of the silly fucking self censorship in the original fucking story. I generally just see that shit and say fuck to myself anyway. I'm guess that your average motherfucker does the same -- hence, it really make not a damn difference.
Indeed. I'll file this under the "fire hydrants cause crime" category: since most crime occurs within 2 blocks of a fire hydrant, we can conclude that fire hydrants cause crime. Hence, outlaw those fucking instruments of satan.
Yes indeed poster: it's time to break out the football bats and tennis helmets and dish out some dirt naps to these honkeys.
What you said is completely fucking devoid of meaning. So you take a line of some ESRI box and regurgitate it? Do you have the slightest fucking shred of originality?
Yeah, you work with GIS. Big fucking deal. So do I. Does that make what I say cannonical? No one fucking iota. In fact, looking at sanitary sewer system (poo pipes, if you are so inclined) doesn't make me much of an authority on anything but shit. And you my friend, are full of it.
To sum up your post: having a map helps people know where stuff is. How amazingly fucking insightful!
No, knowlege of past conditions is just as useful in the future as it is in the present. If I want to run some fucking shit under the road, I need an as built map so I can tell if my pipe is going to mince a gas line and electric conduit.
Fuck me man! ESRI has on line courses if you want.
Gradual fucking change!? Fucks man! You completely missed the point of the book. Kuhn talked about how change is rapid, dramatic, and upsetting to the old paradigm. Reread the part about phlogiston and oxygen. There's no gradual fucking shift to the oxygen paradigm. It's all or nothing.
He talks about how if Einstein is correct, Newton is not. This isn't a gradual change. I don't know what kind of shitty instructor you had, but Kuhn's thesis was precisely the opposite of yours: science is *NOT* a process of gradual accumulation of knowledge.
That's due to sigfuckingnificant subsidies. All things being equal, and in places where state's don't subsidize its use, ethanol is more expensive per gallon.
The shitty fucking truck stop here sells E85, 85% ethanol, 15% gasoline mix. That costs about 60-80% more per gallon than gasoline. Factor in the fact that ethanol just doesn't have the same fuel value, and it doesn't look so good. Plus, it takes some fancy fucking engine that few auto makers produce to burn.
It doesn't support the community for shit. For every 5 cent per gallon loss, that's five cents that doesn't go to the state department of transportation, meaning that the funding for replacing shitty fucking roads has to come from somewhere else -- either more taxes on normal gasoline, or higher vehicle licensing fees.
Don't kid yourself. Education isn't funded by ethanol. It's merely a way to placate angry farmers who reward politicans with votes. That's the real benefit. Keeping the trough full for farmers, and keeping incumbents in office.
Fuck that noise. In the aforementioned areas, Verizon is sufuckingperior. You either get Verizon or Cellular One. Cell One PRLs ride on Verizon, since the Cell One coverage is shitty. In areas where the two exist side by side, Verizon is a lot fucking better.
Besides, Cell One uses a highly homosexual TDMA versus CDMA. TDMA is bush league.
I've had zero fucking problems with their customer servivce. It's possible that in New England, where the silly bitches offer landline service, things are different. But I've never waited on the phone ever for a *611 call.
There's no GSM out here. No Nextel. Not even digital in a lot of those areas. You'll end up roaming on PCS for digital, and AMPS with Verizon.
Now the bitching can be more evenly distributed between the Mandrake 9 beta thread and this. It's good to see the potential for a little load balancing.
Oh, but it will break everything! GCC is evil, why does GNU have to do this?
However, I and others are a bit horrified by the high (some might say elitist) entrance fee ($325) which practically precludes students from participating
That might be exactly the fucking thing they wanted. In all honesty, it's summer. If this was a student orientated fete, the thing would have been during the school year. The high entrance fee is merely a fucking insurance policy.
Why the fuck can't people create a simple fucking graphical representation of their data? It would make things so much easier, and make for easy comparisions. Granted, one can fucking manipulate the shit out of graphs to skew the data, but good graphs are possible -- and necessary in this case.
Right now, it's just shitty fucking data. People don't think in spreadsheets.
Oh for fuck's sake, you can't argue that. Why should we have java? Why not code in ANSI C all the time? Why write programs for MacOS or Windows? Why not code straight commandline apps that eschew the GUIs -- which only fuck shit up by making shit platform fucking dependent?
Hell, why have USB? Why not just make PS/2? Why have IDE? Why not have SCSI? Why do we have to use HTML when clearly, XML is a better format?
It's a poor fucking argument. The real reason is that HTML is a shitty fucking file format that cares more about presentation than internal format. If people want to use IE -- so be it. They want more flexibility. For fucks sake: apply this bullshit fucking argument to printing: oh, woe! Why do people use CMYK? Why not use letterpress! It's a long established standard. Damn that proprietary postscript bullshit! Fucking assholes excluding black and white users.
Failure on your part does not indicate a fault of the software. If I pour a shitload of granulated sugar into your car's gas tank, will you bitch because the auto manufacturers didn't properly build their cars to run on sugar?
It's a logical fallacy, your argument. Properly configured, it works just fine. Linux shit gets fucked up all the time. No fault of the OS, but fault of the user. Don't atrribute your failings on the software.
Why is it that when schools save money, they go and spend it on more fucking technology? Like the dude: we are bringing our students into the 21st century. What the fuck? You saved money, so you spent it? How the fuck is that saving money. That money was spent either fucking way.
God dammit, this fucking makes me so mad that there's spittle on my fucking monitor, and that's pretty damn savage. Why can't money be spent on important shit? I don't see computers being more important than quality chairs, desks, supplies, instructors. A computer doesn't teach people shit. Does giving a chef some new T-Fal shit suddenly make them fucking Iron Chef? Fuck no. It was grunt work that did.
Fucking people and their ideas that computers can replace good instruction. It doesn't matter what the fucking OS is. The OS is just some shit that is the vehicle for edufuckingcation. It's not an end. It's a means.

But that was a long fucking time ago, and now it's all about fucking money. Ye, gods, though. How much fucking money does a place need? That's just irresponsible. Maybe I'm just some fucking yahoo, which is most likely the case, but it seems like one has a fucking obligation to be less of an asshole when one has the money to rule the world.

Actually, the AS/400 uses some rather funky proprietary shit -- namely the processors.

Which is a bit odd, considering they're rushing like gangbusters to get Linux on their high-dollar shit, like the 390s, and throwing money to universities ($20,000+ of grant money where I work) if they can fit the words "IBM" and "Linux" onto a grant application. Hell of a deal, but odd duality -- in the Jungian sense.
