Well you can create comlete sentences.... that's a helluva lot better than most of the people I get.
Most of the people I deal with can barely read, so no I really don't think I look at most people as incompetent by default... It just seems to work out that way here, but the town where I live is pretty bizare.
I'm in roughly the same boat as this guy. I currently have 4 servers on the net that are pretty much mission critical and at least one for the last 8 years or so. Now they just work.... I go for months without the tiniest hiccup. However bad things do happen and they generally seem happen when I'm camping or in another state or whatever.
If I knew with 100% certainty that I could be contacted if there was a problem I would be able to enjoy my vacations much more. But since I can't I['m always driving around to find cell coverage so I can check my vm which pisses off my wife or I don;t check vm and am worried the whole damn time.
I tried finding some people to watch over things for me but they're either too stupid, or I find my apps installed on the competition's server a few weeks later. Now granted I live in the middle of a friggin cornfield in Indiana so I don't have access tot eh kind of talent this guy probably has.
Those of you who're suggesting that he sleep in the server room or hire more help since he manages "7 whole servers" should probably try running something besides Windows on some decent hardware.
I agree if I was talijg about the GPL but I'm thinking more along the lines of the DMCA... you know, the reverse engineering BS law. What WINE does has to be borderline at best and could be used to help strengthen the DMCA if WINE were to actaully lose a court case.
Yeah that actually makes sense.... why bother to sue when you know they're just going to lay down before it goes to court... wait till they get lawyers so a precedent can be set.
I used Corel Draw 4.0 to create web graphics. I'd take a 4K Corel Draw vector-based image and export it to gif (there was no.jpg support in Mosaic at that time). The resulting gif was either considerably larger or considerably crappier looking than the original.cdr (I think it was.cdr back then).
I always thought that of all the companies to miss the Internet boat, Corel missed it the worst. Had they just gotten Mosaic to include support for.cdr files or maybe even just come out with a plugin early on they would have crushed Adobe.
It's about time that a vector based image was supported by a major browser. That makes so much sense... It's too bad Microslough won't support the same one. In fact I'd say this is a nail in the coffin for SVG... Microsoft will push their own version of SVG and all will be lost. Damn my daughter was right... I am in a bad mood today.:)
MS isn't going to go after IBM etc. They're all useing each other's patents and they all know it... this is designed to keep the new little people down. Some developer writes a new kernel patch and the big guys will get together and decide who's turn it is to sue the little kernel hacker directly. If I patent some little code snippet/idea and MS decides to use it, do you think I'm going to be able to have my day in court with MS?
Flipped around, if I impliment some obvious idea that happens to be patented, do you think I'm going to be able to defend myself against the like of MS?
At some point only our current "hero" IBM will be the only ones able to introduce kernel patches because they can afford the lawsuits and they will effectively own Linux.
That's assumming Microsoft keeps up with the trends and maintains a decent solution to the problem. They won't and people will still have to use third-party solutions like Adaware. Just like people use Firefox/Thunderbird and some even pay for Opera.
Based on the quality of some of your other posts I'm going to bother replying.
What possible reason could I have for trying 2003 server?
Maybe that warm and fuzzy feeling I've gotten thinking about Microsoft's great security since I started using Windows3.1 and connecting to the net via trumpet winsock?
When they came out with NT we were told that you couldn't play games on it because it was a serious os that wouldn't let apps access the hardware. I thought wow they're getting serious, cool and I signed up... a few updates later and you could make doom run on it.
How about the fact that even the newest versions of Windows can run on older/cheaper hardware? Oh wait nevermind.
How about that price... isn't it great! I'll tell my 16 person accounting office client how much they'll save by replacing their rock-solid Linux PDC with a Windows2003 server.
Or how about the way Microsoft has bought these anti-virus companies and that spyware company so they can help us work around these little problems for free? oh wait I've been hearing that subscription word, haven't I?
I could go on and on , but you completely missed the argument I was making so I'll try again.
Why in god's name would anyone run a web server with KDE installed and running, samba installed but not turned on, nfsd installed but not turned on, ntpd installed not but not turned on, alsa loaded but no speakers connected, cups installed but no printers, 3 different web browsers installed, 5 different mail clients installed 7 different news readers installed and about 30 hokey games installed on their server. Why that would be just stupid wouldn't you agree?
But at least with Linux/BSD/Solaris you can stop the gui, unload all the unused modules from the kernel, compile in only those modules you need and not allow other modules to be dynamically loaded. Delete the fucking kde/X folders (I used the word "folder" for your benefit) and still the machine will serve.
If you must use a gui to edit you zone files then fine but the focus should be on being a server not on making changes to the server's config. Why does the gui have to run all the time?
Why couldn't Microsoft spruce up Windows3.1 and you type win.com from the console (err I'm sorry, from dos), edit your files and then shut the gui off. Make the gui not network aware, not listen to any ports, just make it be a fancy regedit.
I write this post uisng Firefox on a dual-headed Windows XP Pro box. I only have 1 *nix workstation in the building and never use it. I have 1 old Sparc Server 630MP running Solaris 2.51 which is just serving up some mp3's because it's a cool old box, 4 Athlon web/email servers running debian, 1 dual P3-450 debian server for experimentation, 3 Windows2K workstations and 2 more Xp workstations. So as you can see I'm not a fanboy of much of anything and my head isn't in anyone's ass.
Yeah and almost every friggin time you do a windows update it'll re-install outlook express. I imagine it does more than that but don't know for sure. Does it really hurt to have outlook express installed if you never run it? Probably not.
My point is when I build a server i put on just what I need to operate the thing nothing more and that's a really good way to run a server or a workstation for that matter.
I'm believe that a kernel that is compiled for a server-only machine is going to be faster, more stable and more secure than one compiled to run a gui environment on a workstation.
I fail to see why anyone would opt to have to have a Windows gui with IE, Outlook Express, Freecel, Media Player, etc. running on a their server.
Will Microsoft ever become truly serious in the server market and offer an OS that doesn't have all this crap installed by default?
I charge them hard if I'm on-site... especially if it's some residential person who's just too lazy to disconnect their computer and bring it in.
If they bring it in to me I take it home and only charge for the time I actually work on the thing.
IE if I have to run spybot I charge for the time installing it and starting it and then I kick back and watch some tv or flip over to my computer and read slashdot. An hour or 2 later I'll check on their computer and clikc a few clicks and then go back off the clock while it reboots or whatever.
This has worked out well for me and with a KVM switch it's no big deal to work on 2 or 3 computer simultaneously.
I bought the first Scooby Doo movie twice because my kids scratched the original. Now thanks to my backup software, I won't have to buy it again... at least until a new format comes out and DVD players can't be found.
I was told that Iraq had something to do with 911 and had the capability to do much worse and would. Given that information, I was for the invasion of Iraq because it was retaliatory, not pre-emptive. Now that we've discovered that neither fact was true and made up, I'm against the war in Iraq and believe that the bush administration lied to us and should be impeached.
Now we're being told that sadam was an evil dictator and it was our duty to remove him from power and bring freedom to the Iraqi people. We're being told he was killing innocent Iraqi's and torturing them... I bet they're really glad that's not happening to them anymore.
If bush would have said "we're going to invade Iraq and take out sadam because he's trying to undermine our economy by selling oil for the euro rather than the dollar, because he tried to kill my daddy, because we need to insure that the American military has oil for years to come and because I owe some of my good ol' boys some favors and I want them to make a lot of money rebuilding Iraq." Then I would have been against the war, but would not have felt such an urgent need to impeach the bush administration. Likewise, if clinton had simply admitted "yep I got a bj" I'd have not felt the need to impeach him either. But they both lied to us and that cannot be tolerated in a democracy.
Before any of you right-wing nutcases think I'm some kind of a left-wing freak let me just say this... being against the war is not the same thing as being against American soldiers. I'm not the guy who's putting on a $50 million party to celebrate winning an election while the soldiers in Iraq don't have the armor they need. Let me also say that if you're going to do something, do it right... Bush Sr. should have finished the job.
The idea of a little war or police action is stupid... we need to get back to the basics of war... it's a freaking land grab and needs to be treated as such. In our civilized society we try to sugar coat it and try not claim Iraq for ourselves. We make sure that our puppets are the only ones running for election. If we get to the point were we need to use military might, the we need to do it up right and slaughter those who choose to fight us and claim the country for ourselves. However the way we do it nowadays is we put in a puppet dictator who, by definition, has no morals in the first place and wonder why they turn on us 10 or 20 years later. Of course the best thing to do, is try like hell to avoid war in the first place.
There are 2 types of diabetes Type 1 which is sometimes also refered to as juvenile diabetes and usually strikes children. My step-son came down with it when he was 3 and it's not because he was fat slob who sat on his ass all day eating candy. Translated it wasn't preventable.
I get so sick and tired if ignorant people whining about their wimpy little Type 2 diabetes and worrying about the possibility of having to give themselves injections. My step son has been doing that for years (actually he's on an insulin pump now which is a wonderful thing). Plus the type 2 people like to try to swap war stories with my stepson (he's now 19). His body produces 0 insulin and was a real treat to deal with through puberty.
I also have an Uncle who was one of te most fit and active people I know... he came down with Type 2 diabetes when he was 60.
So let's not be spreading this "wholly preventable" FUD as it's not true in all cases.
Based on the name I wonder if this was develoepd as a kind of masking tape. It seems like could see this used to quickly mask off a car... simply spray some around a tail light and trim and peel off what you don't want masked. Or I could be wrong
Yeah I quit cafeine... I was a heavy coke drinker... oh sure occasionally I'll have a candybar but my cafeine intake is way way down. I've talked to other's who've had their gall bladder removed and some (but not all) of them couldn't handle milk either.
I told my wife about my earlier and she brought up another run-in we've had with doctors concerning my son last summer. She knew exactly what the problem was (he had an incredibly sore throat and couldn't eat at all). She told the doctor her theory at the thrid visit in a 2 week period and asked to have him tested (I don't remember what her theory was and can't ask her for marital reasons:) for X and they refused. We finally took him to another doctor and they concluded (after 2 visits) that he had whatever my wife had been saying all along.
Bah! bullshit... tell all this to my friend Robert... oh wait, you can't, he's fucking dead. He had no insurance and literaly had a tumor the size of a fucking softball on his pancreas. The first two "doctors" gave him some bs and sent him on is way. Only after we got him on Medicaid did anyone bother to give him the time of day. His symptoms were classic, big bulge sticking out of his side, bleeding gums etc. and yet he was absurdly mis-diagnosed twice.
As far as google knowing more than a doctor... WTF can't a doctor with all that education and information google for themselves? Aparently not or they aren't willing to take time out of their golf schedule to do so.
I've had a pain in my upper right abdomin for a few years now... they did tests upon tests performed surgery and removed my gall bllader and yet I still have the freakin pain. I even asked the surgeon to look around at that area while he was removing my gall bladder because I know it's way higher than my gall bladder and after surgery when I asked him if he saw anything he gave me a blank look and didn't even remember our earlier conversation. So now I can't drink milk unless I take Nexium daily and I still have that pain in my upper stomach, thanks so much doctors.
One of their theories was I had some disease where the iron build up in your bloodstream and were getting ready to start the bloodletting when someone realized that the amount of iron reported on my blood test was impossibly high... so did they do another test?? hell no, since the iron levels were too high to be possible then it must be impossible for them to be reasonably high. Of couse I researched that disease (I can't remember the name) and the symptoms didn't match up to mine in the least anyway.
The problem with antibiotics is mis-use... First off don't take anyhting until you absolutly have to and then make damn sure you take enough to kill every last germ before stopping.
I hope it's just like this at the doctors we've gone to in central Indiana and the rest of the country actually has well-meaning and inteligent doctors.
So Patrick you do whatever it takes to get this figured out and anyone who is telling you how stupid you are for self-anything to go to hell. Don't be afraid to make a scene at the Doctors's office to get them to take you seriously, if you don't they could just let you die.
The last time around I voted for Nader because I had no preference between Bush and Gore (I'm so sorry world). I thought a vote for Nader would help to strengthen third party candidates for the long term.
I've always considered myself to be mostly republican but cannot see how any true republican could vote for these people in power at the moment. Their agenda is their own and bears little to no resemblance to that of a republican. I wish to get the current administration out of the Whitehouse but am having an very difficult time stomaching the idea of voting for that creep Kerry.
If Kerry wins, Bush is gone and that's an incredibly good thing but then we're stuck with Kerry for 4 years and Kerry will be the democratic nominee in 2008. Dean, whom I loved, will be finished unless he runs as a republican (that would be interesting) or as a libertarian etc., in which case he is done.
Your views on the issues are actually right in line with my own but why should I waste my vote by voting for you?
I disagree... I've gotten cards for bookstores and appreciate those more than the actual cash.. I can go to the book store and drop a wad without feeling guilty about spending that money on something like my electric bill. Give me $50 and I'll probably sue that money for groceries or utilities.
"Mozilla Sunbird is the latest stand-alone application from the Mozilla foundation that follows in the footsteps of now revered browser Firefox and email client Thunderbird. OSDir reviews their first public release, version 0.2. Screenshots included."
How friggin hard would it have been to slip the word "calendaring" in between "stand-alone" and "application"? So many sites on soruceforge don't even tell you what the hell the software does... sometimes you can figure it out by reading through the changelog and sometmes they actually tell you on some obscure page on the site but not always.
At least the actuall sunbird site tells you what it is right away.

Dean, whom I loved, will be finished unless he runs as a republican (that would be interesting) or as a libertarian etc., in which case he is done.
Your views on the issues are actually right in line with my own but why should I waste my vote by voting for you?
I disagree... I've gotten cards for bookstores and appreciate those more than the actual cash.. I can go to the book store and drop a wad without feeling guilty about spending that money on something like my electric bill. Give me $50 and I'll probably sue that money for groceries or utilities.

How friggin hard would it have been to slip the word "calendaring" in between "stand-alone" and "application"? So many sites on soruceforge don't even tell you what the hell the software does... sometimes you can figure it out by reading through the changelog and sometmes they actually tell you on some obscure page on the site but not always.
At least the actuall sunbird site tells you what it is right away.
