Don't use IE! use mozilla/firebird (should be the official browser of/.) or opera.
Just like how soldiers during the Vietnam war would ditch their faulty M16's and grab the VC's Chinese-made AK's, no one should be using a faulty tool, period.
We all can make a small database containing just our information and then copyright it....this way, we have a legal standing to sue other companies that use our info (like spammers and telemarketers, etc.)
they are french...well french owned. (some of Robin William's standup routines come to mind) "F*ck off you americanz," says the french men until the Nazis come, in which he starts loving Americans.
Maybe they should rename the company to "Closed Valve".
Of course, if you talk about the french, that one episode (halloween ep.) of the Simpsons comes to mind too where the french, cackling like bullfrogs launch a neutron bomb at Springfield.
I forgot the episode number but it's the one where Homer becomes the owner of the nuclear power plant and you see Lenny and Carl duking it out with nuclear fuel rods like lightsabers all while saying Lenny: "Phantom Menance sucked more" Carl: "I say Attack of the Clones sucked more"
'cuz that portion of the budget now slated for NASA was suppose to go to them and into their pockets (or to their pet-projects).
Just imagine how much funds NASA can get if they were to grab it from the salaries of politicians, especially since the same politicians make more than that with their kickbacks^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H"campaign contributions." (Former governator Davis and Feinstein, both who've been./'ed on it are prime examples).
the more SCO does this stuff (digging their grave), the more satisfying it will be when they fall into it (or get their ass bitten).
I'm waiting until they piss off the Russians (specifically, the russian "underground" with short tempers) or go down under to Australia...and get the Croc Hunter angry....
a 4bay enclosure for $150 and add four 250GB drives at 170 bucks per drive, about $830 bucks...($850 or so with shipping charges and other misc. fees).
Of course, it's not exactly 1TB (2^40)...more like 1 trillion bytes (1.0x10^12). Replacing one of the drives with a 320GB, and voila! (the total cost will go up too but still less than a grand.)
Now take a few of these, and set up a RAID5 (can be done with linux or win2k/XP) and boom....reliable, high-capacity storage.
open office? (note: this is also meant to be a "funny")
and who said anything about a handy vac? A wet&dry vac is a big vacuum, u know...the one with cast and looks like a oil drum cut in half. Plus u can clean up the crumbs with it (Simpsons ep where Homer goes to space).
no...I'm sure there is, even in this project, sad to say....all thx to a method called paperclipping. I'm sure in the bill that gave NASA it's needed funds also included some provisions that had nothing to do with NASA.
Maybe it might not be a bad idea to also have the private sector explore space....u know...have a lil' competition.
so u'r saying, tether ball shouldn't work either.... man...if only that were true....back when I was in 2nd grade, I wouldn't have suffered a blow to my head.
Although I admit, this is some cool ass shit, it's slower than watching paint dry. Of course with millions invested, they have to make sure they don't f*ck up, like some of the other doomed mars missions in the past (including the one where software "glitches" caused it to become like a bug on the grill of a speeding big rig; must've been an ex-M$ programmer who made the boo-boo). Or it could be the ol' adage of the $300 hammer and the $600 toilet seat comes to play.
Now, wait until the guys who brought us Robot Wars and Battle Bots do Mars Exploration....rovers that seek other rovers all while exploring. Of course, not until cheaper reusable rockets or an alternate method, it would be a bit hard for normal folk (aka the non-million/billionaires).
Slashdot Mirror
it was paraphrased!
also..don't forget duct tape and WD40 (or a paper clip and a straw for MacGuyver).

can't wait until somebody overclocks this one....maybe even watercool it....(or do extreme cooling).
especially with those european babes....
but that's all it is...wants....
besides, SCO's stradegy is like that of a kid losing an argument, "So? i Can't hear yOu" (oo... S.C.O.)
An incomplete after a while becomes an F at most colleges....and since it's been going on for more than two years.
a pitchfork to the groin since a pitchfork in the rear doesn't seem to be a good enough incentive.
or any ep of jerry springer
it's starting to become like an episode of matlock...except that matlock hasn't gotten his law degree yet.
I hope the judge throws the book at SCO for trying to use "truth" that doesn't exist or is a conditional truth.

and o yea...this is meant to be a funny.
"Jack in the Crack" (Jack in the Box) has had supersolid like milkshakes for years.....hard as hell to use a straw.
O...btw, this is meant to be a funny.
at least these guys know NOT to bite the hand that feeds 'em.

but since it's post-Enron, the Feds will be on their butts.
Just wait....and a big buff guy named Tiny will be their cellmate.

A wet&dry vac is a big vacuum, u know...the one with cast and looks like a oil drum cut in half. Plus u can clean up the crumbs with it (Simpsons ep where Homer goes to space).
And again...it was meant to be a funny. GEEZ.
do u happen to be one of the following: Boeing employee, M$ employee, Govt employee.
'cuz it was suppose to be a funny....the thing about the ex-M$ employee.
what about a wet&dry vac from Home Depot?
no...I'm sure there is, even in this project, sad to say....all thx to a method called paperclipping. I'm sure in the bill that gave NASA it's needed funds also included some provisions that had nothing to do with NASA.
