As long as there is a monetary system, you can't have people power, nor biometrics for passwords. With a monetary system live the question arrises, what kind of government would want to listen in on the poorest of the people? No money system = no poor or rich or advertisements for that matter! I can't help but think IBM must assume the rest of us live in a world as dummies to buy that shit.
Well since the conservatives have managed to grind the medical greens to the point of uselessness, trust me - no paper work will ever get done any more. They don't follow up with any thing they put in print, nor do they encrypt any thing. Now the expansion of prisons and soon the mandatory minimum will be in place, and so I guess the rich decided the pharmaceuticals are worth protecting aggressively rather than giving a shit about us normal Canadians. Lets face it, how many times have you seen the full page 'cops for cancer' bull in your newspaper, lets face the facts here people. Cancer was cured in 1974-75! and this breaking down of the monetary system is really making those in power behave rather poorly towards the rest of us. Also the watching over our Internet use doesn't surprise me any more than most of you people.
So what's next for social camouflage? Parading around on our bikes with pink shits stating we are just as stupid as the normal clowns. I guess it's a little late to finally read 1984 as it just would not be as fun as the real thing.
I think your correct, it's a great way for M$ to yet again try to kill Linux off. I hope I am wrong but SUSE does look to be in the cross hairs, and it's likely that M$ would like to kill many birds with one stone. Good thing I can emerge -e world around that stone...
"If Windows sucks soooo much, how come more people are familiar with it than Mac OS X? Last time I checked, Windows wasn't just a business operating system. Tons upon tons of people use it and like it."
You sure sound like a fool that actually bought win95 in 96, and actually thought it really was great. Did you miss out on owning an Amiga or Apple as a kid or some thing? Your just plain foolish if you can not see past marketing, and buying into the world worst computer effort of all time. After all you said it "familiar", and that does not say much when I look out my window and see. Far to many people do not ask enough questions and just blindly except the stupid things others come up with, M$ being Queen of BS for a long time.
I am sorry, I bought into such easy flame bait, but anyone with a brain knows what sucks and what doesn't. Like does this guy even own a computer?
The PC without an OS is not a product because it doesn't work...hmm I don't think so! I have not purchased many PC's without that M$ product on it for years. And yes, the PC "works" with out the OS, how the F@#$ do you install an OS on a non-working PC!? Like Linux ISO's share for no reason... Has anyone notice how the new vertical M$ ads look like toliet paper? I know they want it to look like printing on paper means some thing, but I am sorry - it really does look like toliet paper. Have you wiped your M$ ass lately. sorry, I just could not help it...;)
That time article did not read well at all! Where was Richard Stallman and the GNU to be found? For the good that Time Mag did, they might as well just handed out free packages of electric-coolaid with every copy of the article. At least when is was all said and done, a fraction of the DOSe users might have actually had some kind of thought process going on. I swear that Time either does these crap stories on purpose, or they just don't want to really tell the tale.
One Cheif flew over the cockoo's nest, and they all followed...
Vista - 1) a pleasing view, especially when seen through a long, narrow opening. Makes you wonder who's getting screwed next 2) a mental view of an imagined future event or situation like, putting toast and jam in the 5 1/4 floppy bay.
Makes me think about looking over the license, and making sure you buy the hardware and return the OS. Pay the Open Source people, not M$.;)
Dude, you correct. Anyone that needs a specific word processor just to type, is also likely to need some help doing a lot of things. Just imagine how hard it must be to enjoy sex for these people, might M$ Office users have a higher divorce rate?;)
I have done the exact same thing for about 7 years, you can get people onto better software. It's all good to see others gets smart(er). That's the tip about CDex, some times the problem is finding a machine without GNU/Linux on it to test this software out...:)
I agree with this, I have also done the deed of puting Linux on first time computer users machines. They take to it right away and they soon find out other people they know are having problems that they do not have. I have done this with quite a few new people over the last 6 years and I have to say it works better than getting phone calls that the DOSe box is broken... I do find this a little disapointing that the/.ers are leaning over to the DOSe side, have they not any consideration for the freedom of the new user in general? Do you people actually like fixing crap that you know is going to break over and over. I think I have cast iron life jacket for a few of you DOSe people, since you seem to want to save your selves over others, so kind...;)
Does this kind of bad advertising work on GNU/Linux also. If it's just Linux then maybe the kernel developers would like to smile at such foolish advertising.
I understand the kernel dudes are world class coders...;)
I find the linux skills paying off and opening doors, the windose skills I learned probably will not pay the rent in another 3-5 years. Not that I will miss not using them. Mind you I will not miss the windose only tech's either.
I hope others are finding the same if opportunities, not that money is great but it's better than not working!
Easy to administer, good to learn and very nice performance.
LPI training is some thing I am tackling very soon and I have to say it's worth looking at.
I could tell horror stories of computer tech's I have worked with over the years but that's not fair. But I will say some thing I haven't seen posted yet.
Thus up north in Canada one feels that +10C is just excellent in a tee shirt as the snow is melting as the sun is truely starting to show it's colours. Ah the all to short summer is coming!!
I fiqured it was time to clean some extra hardware with my electrical spray clean stuff. On this note I decided that I would try it on my extra keyboard as I knew that it wasn't for plastic but pulled dirt of any thing without residue and never damaged plastic.
I went outside on the walkway where the snow was clear and put down the parts to be cleaned. I started with my keyboard and quickly discovered that it's to cold for the spray to evaporate and became a strange thick clear gel like glue that cracked when touched but still stuck to skin really good.
Thus I dragged everything back inside with the keyboard in hand and thus it began to heat up and stink. Out the door it went and never have I cleaned hardware in the cold again.
It's been years but I would have to agree with you. Nothing better than a good head trip to clean the cobwebs in the brain. Flashback is a foolish term for that which will never happen. There are those that haven't a clue how memory functions...some of them work for M$. Thus the problem continues...
While some of you are on the conversation of screen, how about adding mutella onto that. I haven't found a better client in BASH and it's searches are really quite good.
I sure hope the whinner that started this post, the one who stated demands of the Gimp developers is funding his demands!
You can bitch after your payment has made NO differences about the OSS project.
Get the hint eh!
Anyone maybe think these are side shows to get M$'s attention away from Sun's Project looking glass, it's excellent work on linux!
maybe some windose users might like to look at what Sun's got to show for.;)
Actually I started off my girlfriend and family on Linux first, since they haven't had any problems over the years my parents actually requested I let them try it to.
Gentoo to the rescue again and happy Parents they will be soon.
Don't get me wrong the iMac suggestion was a great way to solve the problem. Just I haven't got one yet.
I bet MS wrote that one them selves. If their is someone on the planet that would love to screw the linux community over it's them. Offering rewards is a perfect front end to such a motive.;)
Good to see someone in these posts has some balls. Cold Turkey is the easiest out. It works and the side effects are great for studing one self.
The mind can play amazing tricks...and it's a good mental exercise.
If you can't handle your expression honestly 'now', then I guess you best live in the past with your crutches and the rest of you petty ideas that are also built in the past.
