that is the space my pr0n takes up
This guy is just a scum of an hypocrite. Worried about the poor????? Plain BS.
Take a look at this article. Unfortunately it is in spanish, but try to translate if you do not understand. Worth the read.

MF!
Yes, those motherf**** use their degrees and knowledge to kill,harm and destroy the infidels instead of helping their "brothers" to relieve poverty, build and make a better life for them in their shithole countries.
they give a damn for the degrees, it is just a weapon to fight the "infidels". Their goal is to turn back time and live like 1000 years ago in the darkness of the middleage.
Those engineers are happy in Afghanistan/waziristan living in tents in the middle of the desert
Is the Navy kidding? are they stupid?
Why buy electronic components from unknown/obscure brokers who sell crap made in foreign countries?
Why not buy directly from AMERICAN MANUFACTURERS, there are many: National Semiconductor, Freescale, Fairchild, just to mention.
Or some other reputable manufacturers like Philips or Toshiba?
Well, i'd rather buy from reliable american companies when national security is a major concern! It looks the Navy does not think so.
Do not go after the more common knowledge like PHP+Web Design. Lots of code monkeys around tinkering with topics like this one.
Try to get into the latest exciting high tech fields like grid computing, corporate backup and SAN solutions, virtualization, non-Intel weird HW architectures and many many more.
Of course, you have to be open-minded and love new techonolgies, if not, forget it.
It is sad NVidia guys wont release their drivers as open source yet, but i can do with it.
I stuck with NVidia, always worked well from 1st time for me since Millenium Edition and Linux RH 9 (or 8?) days. And still do with XP. So, up to know, i give a sh** if the drivers are not OS, as long as it is: $0, works fine, get support and newer releases pretty often. But, yes, better if the drivers are OS!
So why change to a unrealiable manufacturer? e.g. ATI
I work at a huge company. My 512MB RAM, P4 CPU notebook takes about 10 minutes to startup due to huge logon scripts shit, corporate antivirus, firewall, antispyware, and lots of additional useless services activated by logon scripts and unable to turn all this crap off. This is really annoyng, sucks and pisses my off way too much.
And i do have to turn it off to avoid hardware problems.
BTW, an old RS6000 server in the company took 15 minutes to bootup.
Yeah, i agree, the problem is not IM, e-mail, phone et al. After all, you can turn off or unplug them:-)
The big problem is like my current IT job. Open boxes, a big room with about 30 people. Most of the time they speak and lough loudly, make meeteings all over the place, showing off, yell at each other instead of walking and so on... It looks more a party than a work place. It is really disgusting and completely disturbing. Believe me, my most productive time is when i have to work late at night or during weekends, with NO one of those assh**** around disturbing.
I really got tired of all the IE insecurities: activex, spyware, adware, page hijackers and any shit imaginable.
Aprox. a year ago, switched to FireFox. Since then i am happy again, never had any kind of shit like the above.
The only thing annoying is that after some minites of inactivity, it takes a long time to "come back"
I only use IE for the crappy work intranet and some other annoying websites made with MS-proprietary shit
Hey brothers... many of you are telling that scientists know nothing about computer science or computer security. Andrew Tridgell himself is a phycisist:-)
I really hate the IE crap. - i got tired of spyware, adware, hijacks, malicious activex & ocx shit, and whatever crap you imagine. - it is bloated - completely unstable - i got it infected with any kind of shit which makes it clog my system and eventually freezes mi system all the time (Even running spybot, ad-aware, spyware blaster !!! there's no way to clean all the fuckin shit)
I switched to Mozilla. I use it 99% of the time. Man IT ROCKS! - secure. no spyware. no adware. - stable - lightweight (not bloated at all) - fast, a lot faster than IE
Anyway i have to use IE sometimes in order to correctly display pages with proprietary MS shit which causes pages not to display correctly in Firefox, for example when filling tax forms for our local IRS.
security: have you ever heard of a security break in a mainframe? any script-kiddie trying to break in ? any RACF/SNA cracker around?
development tools: lots (eg. FileAID, ISPF)
languages: Lack of languajes? cobol, PL/I, perl, c/c++, java, rexx, jcl
long-life: a dyin technology? bullshit. Its being used widely nowadays (insurance, banking, public services, gov. agencies, etc.)
I've worked on a ES/9000 (MVS/TSO, some VM/CMS) for about a year, doing some JCL and cobol stuff. Its an amazing technology. nothing can be compared to the good'ol mainframe.
What about thiz one? Yeah, pretty old indeed.
