What 75% of the public (probably) fails to understand is that most phones nowadays have a f***ing vibrate feature! And more often than not its the women with the damn annoying ring tones... you'd think they'd enjoy the vibrating ringer more... y'know?
Now I know everyone's going to jump down my throat with "Hey, that's going to be in 4.x.y" blah blah... these things have been in use since the stone ages, too little too late and the support still isn't on par with Sybase, MsSQL, Oracle, etc.. --scott
Girls with those characteristics usually aren't good looking, unfortunately. To those that say "looks aren't everything," I say, "yeah, but it's at least 75%!"
I liked this article under its former name, "IE and Konqueror Bug Makes SSL Insecure"
And to add to the irony, posting a Microsoft-bashing article placed against a giant square ad that says "Microsoft Visual Studio.NET - Try it Now! Get your Trial DVD today!!" is just ignorant.
Hahahaha.... that's pretty funny; here is a link: An integrated component of Windows 2000 is made by a Scientology company. The connection between the psycho sect and the software giant is annoying representatives of the major churches in Germany. Microsoft risks a boycott of its flagship product by churches and government agencies.
Windows 2000, the successor of Windows NT shipping in February, contains a defragmentation program called Diskeeper. The manufacturer is the company Executive Software Inc. (http://www.execsoft.com/) of the professed scientologist Craig Jensen. Founded in 1981 the enterprise offers defragmentation and data storage tools to "enhance the speed and performance of Microsoft Windows NT".
Is there some reason why you can't just post the article and then, if you have some comments about it, follow up with a post like the rest of us peons?
Cause his karma would reach "Terrible" status so fast that he would be banned for a week.
That's apples w/ oranges. Can I have the source to all your web apps? Oh? No? How bout you write the code for Apache, Tomcat, JBoss, and Linux for free... yes... fucking free! Their programmers do!
It surprises me, though, that you have two very good hackers, and neither of them thought to err on the side of caution and check the computers they were working on for such things...
Yeah I bet RMS could get them jobs at the FSF... no $pay$ albeit free doughnuts.
Every document can and should be saved in a standard non-proprietary format that everyone can read.
And HOW exactly is HTML a "non-standard proprietary format?" I believe it's pretty well documented on w3c.org.
Jeez, this guy's a moron, all he needs to do is add a line such as text/html; lynx -dump %s ; copiousoutput; nametemplate=%s.html to his mailcap file and you can use lynx to read html mail. No reason for all the file-format hate, man.
FWIW: I will read HTML mail if I have a mailer that supports it (outlook, netscape, outlook express). If I'm using Pine that day, I will automatically delete the HTML mail, I don't care who it's from.
I sooo hope you get fired one day for this. It's 2002, get with the program. It's this kind of software zealotry that we can all do without.
Yeah but the simple fact that it goes down is bad. Having, say, a Linux box with a 450 day uptime is totally useless if the DB goes down every other day.
I'm also getting "wierdness" - like changing my threshold inside the article and being dumped back to the front page.
That's what happens when "rock-solid enterprise ready" MySQL (sense the sarcasm?) pukes on itself. It happens all the time around here. It's just that slashdot loads a cached version of the front page to mask all MySQL errors or when the DB shuts down.
Actually IIS is smart enough to throttle and reject connections above the set amount with a "Server too busy" message, rather than letting it suck up bandwidth to the beat of the band.
Gee, let's see, you're complaining that your pirated serial # doesn't work. Looks like Microsoft got what they wanted---they stopped you from doing something illegal that screws them over. Better for them... one less person to strain resources on Windows Update.
Umm... All I had to do was right click the taskbar button and select "Close." It didn't even slow my machine down. Damn that Windows XP!

autoincrementing integers - you know, a field that increments upon every insert. what a fucking pain it is to write this functionality into every web app.
create sequence table1_seq start with 1 / create or replace trigger table1_incr_trig before insert on table1 for each row begin select table1_seq.nextval into:new.autoincr_field from dual; end; /

No, PNG is not "perfectly fine" for displaying graphs on the web.
Is that why most perl-based graphics routine-using programs (namely MRTG and RRDTool) use PNG as their graphing format?

Hey scott, is your last name "tiger"?
Actually, last I saw, Bill Gates was trading copies of Windows 2000 Server and SQL Server for a set of beads.
No, he's right it did say some.
From the article:
"Eventually, he added, the city will have to purchase software from the company, but he said it would be a "minuscule" expense."
It never said "THE" software; the slashdot story is misleading... what a surprise.

Yeah, just ask RMS... "The kernel is Linux, but the Operating System is GNU."

No doubt, the battle in growing a professor's beard and maintaining it is an uphill one.
Oh, and it's nice to see that Slashcode now removes all HTML entities, so I can't put a nice accent in over the e. Thanks.
That was in response to "all those French whipper-snappers that kept crapflooding with their damn accented letters..."

I can't believe that it took me scrolling 1/2 way down the page to come up on a post that actually made some valid, credible sense.
