Actually, in Canada the law requires that you check if you are over 19.
How often do I have to check? Can I just do it once, on my birthday, or do I have to check again everytime I go into a bar?
More to the point, how do I know I'm not lying? Should I ask to see photo ID?

GIMP goes SVG

Agreed! I use 1.3 from Debian unstable because I'm picky about only using GTK2 apps unless I absolutely *have* to use something else.
Apart from the odd crash when I try to edit graphics at the same time as having Epiphany, XMMS, two gVims and GAIM open when I'm doing web design, it runs like a dream.
I just walked out. It was the crappiest job I've ever done - formatting hard discs all day, every day for a refurbishing company.
Every now and then I'd swap out some dead RAM, or stack machines on palletes.
Thankfully I now I have a job I love doing, where I actually get to help people get somewhere in life, instead of screwing them over on over-priced hardware.
In the UK, you could just tell the audience to send text messages, and give each member a unique ID that makes sure it's coming from them.
You could probably even not pay them back for it... seems if it's got "SMS" in the idea, people will think it's excellent.
(No... I'm not getting pissed off with everything being done by text message. Including a pilot scheme by the police to allow calling them with text messages.)
It's not a subject I know much about, but I do follow a few mailing lists, and I'm fairly sure I saw mentioned there a shell that would only allow SCP activity, without actual shell acess.
Why thankyou. I don't understand the concept of networking.
What I meant was I didn't know how the data got to the cable box - whether it was via the RF modem (never heard of them before), or the standard cable network.
Just stick a DHCP server on the cable box - if you're using the basic cable internet service, you probably havn't got a network to screw up with it. So long as you make sure it's simple enough to disable the DHCP server if neccesary, it seems like a solution to me.
In the UK some people are already using ethernet connections from their cable boxes to get broadband internet access... I don't know how it works, but I do know a friend of mine has a network cable running from their cable box to their computer.
Go into a word processor and add common word misspeelings to their dictonary.
Another fun one there is to use the autocorrect feature in Word to change the odd word to something similar looking with a completely different meaning.
Dunno why, but when you said "providing a more aggressive alert when the battery reaches a certain level." I had an image of it hitting you in the chest.

Re:Nice office... but who is going to pay for this

The Bionic Office

I second the working out of town call there.
I think my current office has the best of both worlds - it's in a mixed use area, but is *right* on the fringe of the city centre (ours is the last road before the blocks of offices above shops), which makes it convineant for those "hey, it's payday!" moments:P

It's a development release - it'll probably get fixed fairly soon.
Have you tried the development version? (x.3 I think) - they've GTK2ed the interface, and made it a lot easier to use.
Hey... when did we hire a new person for IT?
Guess the memo must have un-stickied itself and fallen underneath my keyboard.
If you're in the UK, take a walk down to your local Learn Direct centre - I work in one, and we've got some nice freebies receently.

Try searching the archives for debian-isp.

Can anyone suggest a non-dnd style mud... I'm thinking something along the lines of Fallout by Interplay.
:P
I just can't get into fantasy style MUDs... too much heresoothing for my taste
Why didn't I think of that one? I've been throwing my machine into inifinite loops all night, and I missed that!
Someday I'll set that to a time when I won't be sat at my computer developing.
Maybe 11am.
Would everyone who just though of mentioning SCO's markup of 699% please add their post below.
And before the trolls turn up, I know 699% of nothing is nothing, but it was the best I could do at this time of night.

Isn't that what user accounts are for? So that every user isn't stuck with the settings that the last person to use the computer wanted.
Just create yourself an account, and your wift an accout, and you can happily coexist in the world of multi-user computing.
I'm not entirely sure what you're talking about. I'm running Samba at home, and my XP boxes can pick up the shares on it just fine.
You may need to add smbpasswd entries for the machines users, but other than that, it should be ok.
Wow. That doesn't sound at all like apt-get.
Why don't they just manage Slackware packages with apt?
In Soviet Russia, cliched joke tells you.
Wow... that's some big access logs hes being hit with then ;)
Wow, way to show your maturity.
