I think since the project isn't going to be maintained anymore, and CherryOS isn't going to be sold, that Cherry OS should release its source code to the public so they can prove it isn't just PearPC with a name slapped on it.
I'm a firefighter, and I'd like to say this about red and white lights. It would be better for them to have the slow moving red lights rather than the white xenon ones because of this: People in vehicles are attracted to white lights, so they tend to crash into something with flashing white lights rather than avoid it, just like a nat going into a white light. It is soon to be law here that all fire aparatus only use flashing red lights when parked on a road so they do not disturb the drivers. This would probably be the same for the cell towers. Police have the same problem where people are attracted to flashing blue lights but not red, however all the cops want blue because they think it is cool, as statistically, more people are going to be attracted to it and rear end them while they are stopping the little teenager in the camero who was going too fast. Most newer fire aparatus even turn off all fog/strobing white lights when the parking brake is put on because of this. And don't get me started on those damn takedown lights.
You are one in a million, and the year is 2004. You are seen as a solution to a loss that should never have occurred. Everyone thinks they know what they are doing and think they can run windows server 2003 and just do things themselfs and don't know why these systems go down. They expect a server to be thrown up in 30 minutes and run for 30 years with no problems. They don't want to spend money, they want to pay you $5.15/hr or a high school dropout to do all their work for them. They want instant results and not a long term investment. Information Technology is dead and none of us have a future in it. Find another profession.
To make a long story short, I had a friend go through the classic "I love everyone and you mommy" to a goth, "Fuck the world". Well, while going through this transition, he smoked pot, had syber sex, and swore a lot, but his parents didn't know. Until AOL stepped in and send all of his conversations to his father. Like a normal ho-head, he told his dad he only tried it once, blah blah, even though his dad knew he did it a bunch since he would email all his friends about it when he did it. Well, his dad takes everything from him and he rebels even more. To keep this short, his mom dies a few years later, and he breaks out of it all and is a normal person. AOL watched my friend, and decided to step in the middle of things and send all this stuff to his dad. Don't know what you think, but it sounds to me like they DO monitor their stuff.
Yeah, but you can't find a laptop for that much with the same specs, and even if you sold an x86 based laptop without the LCD, it would still cost more. Get out of your little closed box world and open your eyes.
I knew if I had the physical addresses of these spammers, my friends and I would gladly take a road trip and hunt down these spammers. We would break into their homes/offices, and destroy any equiptment that they own, and be sure they aren't able to start back up. Lawsuits aren't going to work, and have proven worthless. There is only one real way to stop such an issue, and that is by physically destroying these peoples property that they earned by exploiting society. I would slash their tires, break their windows, and give the owner of the corparation an old-fashioned ass kicking. I don't see anything unethical about it, I just see the law as the main problem.
is to take it apart and then reassemble it. you can tell if you did that with the stickers, but can't tell if you disassembed it and put it back together, you just gotta turn it a certain way.
Even with the new logo, NetBSD and still managed to offend some people because of the flag coming from that other picture from Iwo Jima. Everything offends someone, no matter what it is. I bet if I popped my neck in public, or cracked my knuckles, someone would be offended. There is a girl at school who freaks out if someone rubs things, like runs their hand down their desk, or down a peice of paper. Everyone needs to grow the fuck up.
Thinking of which, what's a good, free, easy to use log viewer that puts logs into a pretty graph that is easy to read, etc. and does averages for browers, os's and site traffic. Preferably in PHP.
I couldn't leave my machines on while going away for two weeks on vacation unless I didn't mind rolling the dice to seeing fire trucks at my home.
Makes me think of the time we were at the firedepartment, we went out to draft some ponds and look for good places to take water from since there are no hydrants in the district. You should have seen the look on this one ladys face when there were about 5 fire trucks in front of her house, and a bunch of firemen just standing around.
When I think of a developing nation, I think of nasty apartments with the sheetrock peeling off, rooms with like 5 kids running around, and streets full of filth. If I think of the country side of a nation like that, I think of house held up my cinderblocks in mud, and siding coming off and about to fall over. I also think of bad power and telephone systems. I always want to see pictures of what the places and cities actually look like.

yeah, but at that price, it kinda defeats the purpose. I have always adored the Tzero though:) Economy of an Echo, preformance of a Ferari. Too bad it didn't have a cost of about $40-50k and mass produced.
I want an electric car like that one. I would drive it to school everyday. I wish there was a feasable, small electric car that could do at least 70 for interstate driving though:(
If I put it in "3" or "L", and it goes over 6,000 rpms, it will shit up, and won't shift down until you slow down. It has electronics keeping you from breaking ANYTHING. The entire shifting mechanism is controlled by a computer. The only thing you can do is put it in Park while you are moving, and that doesn't do a thing, if you put it in reverse while moving, it will do nothing until you stop. I think neutral might be mechanical though.
I always wondered, what would happen if a human was in a pressurised capsule that simulated gravity, etc, and was just told to leave that capsule once they reason mars, and to walk on the surface bare? Would they suffocate, die from heat/cold, or would the pressure just kill them? All of the above? If so, which one first? Too bad we let things like morals and common sense keep us from doing these things, because I think it would be sweet to make a little city on mars.

I know what you mean everyone is out there for a quick dollar

The mini is already one of the fastest PCs (personal computer, this includes macs by the way) that has been fit into such a small space.
Really? I think there are scores of laptops out there that would spank it.
Not with the price tag of a Mac Mini though
here is a better picture of me: http://users.moderngeek.com/preston/preston.jpg That one is about 4 years old, the macquarium was cool though.
Yeah, that idea sounds less illegial, and allows for us to benefit. Think: Cheap servers and cars for all!

Or Microsoft will just integrate the software into their Operating system and win by default, instead of making a better one.

If they had a moderation system like slashdot's, they could mod all the pro OSS guys as Trolls.
