Newer TVs have knobs - except instead of being mounted on the front of the unit, now they sit on the couch and complain that there's nothing decent on.
And then you tell the user to bugger off if their input doesn't match what the database allows. Point being, just because the DB doesn't error out when you try to insert data that is too big/different, doesn't mean you have to accept that at face value.
I've programmed my backends to deal almost exclusively with MySQL, but I'm not in denial that other solutions exist. I just haven't played with them. From what I've heard of PostgreSQL, it has some features that I'd really like to play with. However, the whole point of FOSS is that you have choices. You can go with whatever you want - whatever's easiest, fastest, most featureful, any combination of the three, or (if you're lazy) you can just go with whatever's winning in the usage numbers.
So I guess my point really is that I'm lazy. But I already knew that.;-)
Movies need somethig bigger than life and whole point of Enterprise they're just learning how to get there.
Right. Because "Sideways" was bigger than life. Broad generalizations are never entirely applicable. A series of low/mid-budget trek movies that were simply situated in the universe, but not focused on the Military, would be rather interesting IMO.
Like, maybe they could have a movie (even a tv movie) based on the Moriarty holocharacter? Maybe after the events in Voyager, he could be released from his cyberjourney to become a Preacher for the equality of Holograms (one who also happens to be running a massive galaxy-wide crime network, perhaps).:)
Star Wars Episode 1 had security balls. Instead of tentacles, though, they had portions of the sphere extend in triangular patterns to create a mounting point for stability.
George Lucas really embellished his balls in that one.
Geez, I wouldn't want to be THOSE horses. Nothing more insulting than being a 'pet' project (pun not intended - I tried to avoid it, but failed) for a TV show:)
Slashdot Mirror
Well, I'll tell ya one thing - that air ain't fresh any more.
Some Linux installation. Pfft.
I would rather call it "BeebDot".
Does the noble chip lead directly to the noble gas?

Just make a necklace out of USB thumb drives.
You can call yourself Jeannie Mnemonic.
Or you could buy one, and make it build 10 million.
All valid points, well articulated. You, sir, are a model for exemplary slashdot-posting p0w4rZ.

*shrug* You can query the table structure and use that to dynamically monitor for potential data loss/incompatibility issues.
IT Nihilism.
they have never done anything really stupid, for no reason, just because friends were doing it too.
;-)
That's not true - they went to MIT.
You're thinking of "The Inedibles".

Pray tell what is a 'sex year', and where can I get one?
A holodeck SEX fantasy, no less, with Riker as T'Pol and Troi as Trip.
As long as the movie has a completely original cast, that would be a cool plotline for it.
Maybe a cameo by Enterprise, but PLEASE not the main focus.
Yeah, like Vengeance Unlimited :(

That's not true. According to the commercials, the dome design will improve structural integrity and prevent worm-robot-SUV-flattenings. ;-)
Glue?

I smell Googlebomb!
No it doesn't. "htmlarea" is free and released under the BSD license, and it works exactly like a regular text area.
Why code yourself what you can leverage (legally) in five minutes?
No, but I bet I know a tentacled beast of the deep who could tell you.
TREMBLE BEFORE CTHULU!
