    This ... is ... just ... typical.

    Hmm, you're right, that's slightly more on-topic. I was just being sarcastic :)

    Maybe we should turn it into a competition, then. THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE! :)

    Also, you might want to read this for fun :)
  4. I might even buy it. on PHP4 Web Development Solutions · · Score: 1

    I'm kind of curious about doing XML in PHP. I took a look at some online docs a while back, but it never sank in. Maybe I just need a decent book to sit back and read :)

    Here in British Columbia, our government just signed over an area the size of Sweden to logging companies. Eep! I want that land for ME! lol

  6. Re:I dunno on MA Dept. of Revenue consider Linux · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The UI and file storage concepts have not changed very much at all between Windows 95 and Windows XP. Line, Box, X. Start. C:\. The graphics are weird and the log in screen is meaningful now, but that's about it. Linux is quite a bit different than that - "where's the C: drive?", etc - so it would be slightly more of a change. I'd definately not want to have to teach these DOR employees how to use a "real" computer.

    I didn't say if I was arguing _for_ linux ... :)

    I was trying to imply that user training could, potentially, cost a LOT of money.

    But in the long run, it would probably be a better choice.

    "Linux is only free if your time has no value", the old saying goes. In this case, though, I think it would more suitably be "Linux is only free if your co-workers aren't completely fucking retarded". Sounds about right, right?

    since when does wool come from cows? And in most areas where wool is harvested, it is non-fatal to the animals involved. (Sheep are simply shaved to harvest the wool, if you were wondering). Perhaps you are thinking of Leather?

    "dirty power" is used to describe an unstable power supply, a situation which results in "brown outs".

    Would you want to experience a cow manure brown-out? I thought not.
