most people (ie, non-slashdotters) take the RV to get away from the constant barrage of tech and telecom, to see sights not (web)sites, to look out the window and not at Windows.
ok, slashdot's allcaps filter wouldn't just let me post the JENKINS so i'm doing the lame thing and explaining that i'm referencing Leroy Jenkins. sigh
i can kinda sympathize with charter (shudder, omg did i actually type that?!). ok, i can feel for their admins.
for eight months, i worked for a small-town isp with dsl and dialup customers. we had old equipment and no budget for upgrades. we had an autoloader that would occasionally snap tapes, old drive arrays that would fail with no replacement parts on hand ("whuddya mean, we got harddrives right there" "those are ide, i need scsi3"). backupexec would report completed jobs but find no restorable data. our dhcp scope was too small to serve all our customers at once (meaning I would hunt down inactive leases and free them for people trying to connect at that moment).
i did get a new tapedrive after six months of empty promises from my managers (and two catastrophic domain controller failures). i left them a year ago, and they still have my job posted on their site. (don't bother asking for the link, you do not want to work there.)
Read the story, and note who filed a police report. They put themselves on the public record a long time ago. Just to clarify, they filed a police report for the broken foosball table. They had asked the suicide girl's parents, the Meiers, to store a foosball table for them for Christmas. When the Meirs learned what their neighbor did, they tore into the table with an ax and a sledgehammer, and dumped the pieces in a box in the neighbor's driveway. They filed a police report for property damage, not to reveal their own culpability.
After all, the stream has to be buffered somewhere on your system. It doesn't get deleted until you navigate away. For example, with YouTube, I just save the/tmp/Flash????? file to watch later with xine. Maybe this only works with linux...
I don't pvp, I'm not into that style of play. But every time I run through STV, I stop by Gurubashi Arena just to watch players beat each other up over that stupid chest.
I wish Blizzard would develop a facility by which one could simply be a spectator at in the new arenas or the battlegrounds. Maybe create a special portal into these zones so you can see the action but not affect it.
Bermuda serves as a banking and tax haven for many corporations and individuals. It would be a shame if a big sum of money were to vanish into the ether because a Bermudan computer refused to accept a wire transfer from "the future."
my personal theory of deja vu: the brain is a storage device with finite capacity. As new experiences are acquired, old memories (ones already "forgotten") are wiped and replaced by new memories. The exact moment of replacement is experienced as deja vu, because that old memory path had beed trod before. You know you used to remember something in that part of your brain, but you'll never know what that was because now that part of your brain holds the new memory.
An interesting sidenote is that Dr. Lecter never uttered his most famous line in the novels. Although he was excellently portratyed by Anthony Hopkins in the 1991 film version of Silence of the Lambs, the character in the novel never said, "I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti". Dr. Lecter was an oenophile with rarefied tastes, and in the novel he ate human liver with "a big amarone". Fearing that audiences would be confused by the more obscure wine, the makers of the movie decided to change the wine to a more mundane but more easily recognizable chianti.
sure the floppy materials would be rigid while power is applied and the disk is spinning, but how will the manufacturer ship them to end users? Wouldn't the floppy platters just crash and bump and get all scratched up while in the hands of FedEx/UPS?

Here's a pretty good treatise on the shortcomings of systemd: http://ewontfix.com/14/
Yggdrasil -> Slackware -> Debian -> LFS -> Ubuntu
seems like a good place for stone base life forms to develop

... black currant solar cell.
I knew these berries stored sunlight as chemical energy, but I did not know the technology existed to extract electricity directly from them.
just make sure you get a slayer on staff before venturing into the Hellmouth.

The rest of the games at homestarrunner are pretty good too.
So, um, how long until there's an X360 emulator for linux?
there is now coffee sprayed all over my desk, and it's all your fault!
